1/24/2012 8:22:00 PM - 002025703401
Texting and walking....... could be VERY dangerous for some of us!!!
1/24/2012 5:01:23 PM - 002086548916
Aww, did you two walk and talk this morning? That's awesome! Keep it up, girlies!

Hey QG!! ...here we are .... off to the races aka Work!!
1/21/2012 6:56:11 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, QG, how are you and your family doing? Well it was too good to be true a winter without snow. We got 2 inches today and I long for the spring time. I sure could use a getaway about now. So where has the travel bug bit you this time, any plans on the horizon? And how about the poor passengers on the Costa Concordia. What a disaster...and the captain is a coward.
So what's been going on in the Queen Goobers life lately? Working hard? I am trying my hand on a photo a day and hope to post them at the end of the month, wish me luck that I can keep up with it all year long. Have a good weekend and I'll be by soon to explore what's new here.
1/19/2012 10:41:22 PM - 002086548916
Let's see if you can do it and live through it tomorrow! I'm cheering for you!
1/19/2012 9:52:02 PM - 002025703401
I did it....... and lived!!!! LOLOLOL :0)
1/19/2012 4:33:49 PM - 002086548916
It's almost the weekend! Kudos to Jamie and my mom for getting up and walking in the morning!
1/19/2012 3:50:32 PM - 002029331419
..Starting your day off with a nice walk!! :0) Good Job!!!!!!!!
1/18/2012 6:20:07 PM - 002020640084
Jamie,
Hi! Thanks for contacting me today. Hope you get to see the new site. I created my new site last January and I added you as a member then. I would love for you to stop by. I have tons of additions since last year. Here is the link:
http://lucky4me.shutterfly.com/
I am loving your new Christmas page, your summer beach page, your crab page, and your Easter 2010 page. Hope you have a great day! :)
1/17/2012 8:15:53 PM - 002067758981
Why are you being crabby? Duck that head and get thur it so we can vacation!!!
1/17/2012 6:25:16 PM - 002086548916

1/17/2012 5:45:37 PM - 002025703401
Your Crabbyness........ I like! May have to change my name.......
1/17/2012 5:20:49 PM - 002086548916
Yikes! That doesn't sound good!
1/17/2012 5:16:34 PM - 002029331419

1/16/2012 5:18:45 PM - 002086548916
I am sure your employees appreciate that sometimes.
1/16/2012 5:04:46 PM - 002025703401
No one would notice a sit in........ I'm always sitting in my office.
1/16/2012 5:02:39 PM - 002086548916
I would like to do a walk out protest - but I don't want to loose my job. heh. I guess I better stay put.
1/16/2012 4:53:42 PM - 002025703401
Will there be snacks at this sit in????
1/16/2012 4:42:42 PM - 002029331419
Monday, Monday, Monday...... 1/2 of the country is off........and the other working 1/2 of us is at Work!! Is that social justice!!? I think not.... I think I'll start a protest or a sit in or a walk out. Oh... it's just me, not to many would notice! LOOOOOL!!
off to visit your STL page......
1/16/2012 3:29:38 PM - 002025703401

And I don't know why I didn't notice your St. Louis page until now....but it was fun to look at your pictures. You take awesome pics, QG!!!
1/16/2012 3:29:14 AM - 002086548916
Allergies are a pain, but much better to deal with than the stomach bug. Glad you are feeling better! Ready for Monday???? I'm not :)
1/16/2012 2:31:04 AM - 002059624475
Goob! What's up QG?? Are you getting ready for tax stuff at work??
1/14/2012 2:43:53 AM - 002025703401
Much better....... just allergies now :(
1/13/2012 4:12:17 PM - 002086548916
Are you over the stomach flu? Are you feeling better?
1/12/2012 6:00:35 PM - 002086548916
..but it doesn't seem to go very far.
1/12/2012 4:17:25 PM - 002025703401
Money talks..........

1/10/2012 7:08:50 PM - 002025703401
Rain is ending...... cold front is starting to blow the clowds out to sea!

I see that someone else is procrastinating with work...and site hopping. LOL. It's gonna be a very long, quiet week around here.

12/24/2011 2:23:49 AM - 002035648808
Hey QG...Making my annual rounds, lol! Seriously, you are rocking out these pictures girlfriends. I am loving everyone of them. I am already needding a taste of spring! It is too cold and damp. I would rather have a foot of snow and cold than the mid 30's and raining. Yep, I know, we are never satisfied are we. Enjoy all our late night FB. It appears that we get busted quite often. I think I had better swing on over to the St. Louis page and see what amunition you have put on there, lol! Have a Merry Christmas and give Big Momma a hug from me ;) Hug yourself to...that is from me too, lol!
12/22/2011 5:06:03 PM - 002029331419

What's the opposite of nerdy goober??? Oh, that would be me - a blonde goober! LOLOLOL!!
And yes, Jamie...you are a Adorable! Just like my mom and Big Momma said!
12/21/2011 3:35:58 PM - 002025703401
Jamie falls to peer pressure!
Momma - At least I'm a nerdy goober and not the opposite. You couldn't handle two of those! ;0)
12/21/2011 3:16:38 PM - 002029331419
Momma...I don't 'get' her to do anything that she hasn't already got going in her mind!! haha!!
Jamie....but she says it in such a loving voice!! :0)
12/20/2011 9:51:35 PM - 002025703401
Is it bad when your momma calls you a GOOB?
12/20/2011 9:32:31 PM - 002067758981
Oh yeah, that's the word for that profile picture, Jamie Leigh!!! How does Jean get you to do such things? Oh wait, I know, you are a GOOB!!!
12/20/2011 9:05:56 PM - 002025703401
STOP IT!!!! LOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!
12/19/2011 7:45:53 PM - 002086548916
Everytime I would get dough on my hands this weekend, Hannah would come and ask me to Dance to the Music from the ornament you sent my mom....it was so funny!
12/19/2011 5:32:42 PM - 000074469281
I finally made it here and it looks and sounds so much like Christmas!! Wishing you a wonderful Christmas, Jamie, and a super duper 2012!! i hope to be better at visiting sites soon
12/19/2011 5:25:22 PM - 002025703401
Just because I'm a little bossy...............
12/19/2011 3:39:24 PM - 002029331419
That's great Jamie that you all will be a good support for each other!!
We know you love the policing side of things...! :0) Headed to the Post office......
12/16/2011 7:29:20 PM - 002086548916
Not saying that you have to weigh in half naked....but holding eachother accountable with exercising 3X a week for at least 30 minutes...and you already have the food part down. Stick with it!!
PS -- I LOVE that show!!!!
12/15/2011 10:18:24 PM - 002025703401
ABSOLUTELY NOT! NO HALF-NECKED GROUP WEIGH IN FOR JAMIE!!!!
You know I HATE that show!
We police each other and have no bad snacks allowed in the office. Lunch is Subway..... at least 3 days a week. The other 2, are picked from a short list.
12/15/2011 10:07:36 PM - 002086548916
Are you doing a Biggest Loser - Kinsel Motor Style??? That would be fun!
12/15/2011 8:15:42 PM - 002025703401
My leg ached last night but no cramp...... ate 2 bananas yesterday!
The office is already planning our diet after the holidays and getting back into an exercise routine.
12/14/2011 4:41:08 PM - 002086548916
Those hurt!!! I hope you can find some relief!
I get them really bad in the winter because my muscles tighten up when its cold, so I feel your pain.
12/14/2011 3:36:41 PM - 002025703401
Had a charley horse this morning........ Does that count? My leg is in knots today!
12/14/2011 3:17:37 PM - 002067758981
HA! Jean, I was going to ask the same thing..........how's the head?
12/14/2011 3:13:41 PM - 002029331419

12/12/2011 7:32:44 PM - 002025703401
No HOT vacations for us! We can stay home for that!!!
12/12/2011 7:26:27 PM - 002067758981
Kay, as hot as it gets here in summer, I sure do not want to go anywhere that is HOT when we go.
12/12/2011 7:25:00 PM - 002029331419
It will be a good thing to have this Monday behind us.......
12/9/2011 11:01:51 PM - 002086548916
Then why do you always go to the COLD places in the Summer???? Hmmm?????
12/9/2011 11:41:15 AM - 002025703401
The travel thing is about seeing things you don't have........ mountains, rocky seashores, snow!
12/9/2011 2:15:45 AM - 002086548916
But yet you travel to find the cold.....I can't figure you out!
12/8/2011 8:45:44 PM - 002025703401
We don't like cold down here!
12/8/2011 4:09:21 PM - 002029331419

12/7/2011 3:51:09 PM - 002025703401

12/6/2011 9:10:26 PM - 002086548916
Good think you own a coat for when you travel.....or else you would be really cold!!!
12/6/2011 8:37:59 PM - 002025703401
Hey Girlies! Christmas has all of us in the crazy mode. Not enough time in the day to keep up!

12/5/2011 11:49:45 PM - 002088910291
Jamie, I love your header, it is perfect! I love listening to the carols as I write this! Of course my favorite Christmas album is Elvis Christmas Album! I always play it a lot at the holidays! It is so fun to sing along with! We had it as kids and it remained our fav, along with Nat King Coles! Old fashioned, but they are still the best! I love your playlist, I tried to make one the other day, I signed up and everything but do not know how to get it to my page on shutterfly! I heard you may go to Oregon next spring! It is a beautiful state also! If I did not live in WA. I might move to the coast of Oregon, in one of the little towns along there! I can't believe I am wrapping a present for my grandson already! Christmas really came fast for me! I am so glad the kids want to make Christmas dinner for all of us like they did at Thanksgiving! They are both great cooks!!!! I will catch you later, and have fun getting ready for the holidays!!!! Deb xoxox
12/5/2011 8:47:52 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, love your new header. How are you and your mom doing? Ready for Christmas? I have yet to get my tree or gifts. I've been bad this year. Just want to say Hi and that I haven't forgot the Queen goober. I'll be by to see what's new. Hope you had a good weekend.
12/3/2011 10:55:19 PM - 002086548916
Thinking of you on this cold and snowy day! We have clear skies now but its expected to snow tonight :)
12/1/2011 9:52:08 PM - 002086548916
And THAT is why we LOVE you, your Majesty.
12/1/2011 3:27:45 PM - 002025703401
Beats me!
Deep sigh..... I'm such a Goober!!!
12/1/2011 3:21:02 PM - 002086548916
How does FB change your S'fly picture? Please explain because I don't understand! I like this one though...walking barefoot in snow, what a Goober!
12/1/2011 1:05:49 AM - 002025703401
I wasn't logged in. That was Facebook. HA! I'll change it for ya anyway...... PEER PRESSURE!!!
11/30/2011 10:44:17 PM - 002086548916
And she even changed her picture so she has a coat on....You are going all out this year, huh?
11/30/2011 5:06:49 PM - fb:1691024357
Ha! You guys have me wrapped!
11/30/2011 3:41:05 PM - 002029331419
A Queen and her peer pressure subjects....ya, that works! :0)
11/30/2011 3:19:22 PM - 002025703401
Pretty much a known fact now......... Jamie will fall to peer pressure!
11/30/2011 3:10:21 PM - 002086548916
I knew it! LOL.
11/29/2011 8:50:26 PM - 002025703401
Yup...... peer pressure! :)
11/29/2011 8:42:28 PM - 002086548916
She even changed her music to the Christmas playlist! She is in the Christmas Spirit but only because she gave into peer pressure :)
11/29/2011 4:31:45 PM - 002025703401
Don't push it too far Jean...... it's not December....... yet!

Well..... it was either Oklahoma or Oregon? Easy guess! I might have to come visit some friends in New Mexico or Colorado at some point next year...........
11/16/2011 4:54:41 PM - 002086548916
Oregon? And a few weekend trips sound fun!!!
11/16/2011 4:46:54 PM - 002025703401
We've decided one big O trip plus maybe some weekenders (with goobers?) for next year. Gonna save our money for a really BIG A trip in 2013!!!
11/16/2011 4:24:38 PM - 002029331419
Begins with a O......
11/15/2011 11:25:56 PM - 002086548916
When? I have heard you talk about a lot of "I want to go there" trips. Is it Alaska? Back to Washington? Back to Virgina? Estes Park? Maine? Geeze...You talk about so many places, I can't keep up!!!!
11/15/2011 9:24:00 PM - 002025703401
You never listen to me....... I've talked about this!
11/15/2011 9:18:41 PM - 002086548916
Will someone spill it!?!?! The suspense is killing me!!!!
11/15/2011 7:06:37 PM - 002029331419
I know where...............
11/15/2011 6:53:50 PM - 002086548916
For where!?!?!? That didn't take long!
11/15/2011 6:00:45 PM - 002025703401
Ok..... I made a reservation. LOL!!!!
11/14/2011 5:13:34 PM - 002086548916
Wow QG - This could be a record for you!!! Hmmm, let's see how many days Jamie can go without booking a trip. Maybe I can set up a ticker on my site ;)
11/14/2011 5:03:25 PM - 002025703401
Thank you for the header comments! The sunlight was making the boathouse glow.
Jean...... Don't pressure me! I just don't seem to have enough hours in the day to do what I need to do...... but I do have all winter, unless some trip comes up! Do you know I've gone a whole week and a half without ANY travel plans booked? None! I really need to book something!!!
11/14/2011 4:18:04 PM - 001010638415

Jamie, I came by to say HI!, and ended up looking at your WA. pics again, and your new balloon shots this year! They were fun to compare the difference from last year! I loved that new butterfly balloon! It was my favorite! I hope all is well with you, and I wish I were able to meet up with you in St. Louis, but it's not in the cards for me this year! I now have my grandson, son and wife, and now my mom and dad living in my living room! Have to go now, I am being called! Deb xoxox
10/13/2011 4:34:40 PM - 002025703401
Thanks Kay!
10/13/2011 3:51:54 PM - 002086548916
Well Lookie There! They did stay put for me :) I loved your pictures! You have quite the eye through that camera lense of yours!
10/13/2011 12:15:21 AM - 002025703401
They will still be there later Kay! No worries!!
10/12/2011 4:48:25 PM - 002086548916
I wish I had more time to look at your Balloon pics....will stop by later if the boss leaves early!
10/11/2011 8:32:33 PM - 001076975951

Is that the deal??? I wish someone would have told me sooner!!
How many pictures do you have to edit? I had 600 from the Balloons and 800 from the air show. My memory card is cleaned off and ready for St. Louis! Yeeee haw!
10/11/2011 3:42:00 PM - 002025703401
I'm still editing pics, when not working or sleeping. I hate the fact that I have to pay to play!
Kay, two words for you......... FULL MOON!!!
Jean, I am a stalker and a chaser! ;0)
10/10/2011 10:21:49 PM - 002086548916
Is today over yet? I have listened to Engineer's whine and complain about every little thing - and they can't seem to think for themselves! I am about to burst....
Hope you have had a great day!
10/10/2011 3:25:13 PM - 002029331419

10/7/2011 10:45:13 PM - 002086548916

One week Missy!!!
9/14/2011 5:46:13 PM - 002088910291
Jamie, I just wrote you a long note, and accidently deleted it, so here is the short version! I love your WA. page, and have to come back to see the rest! I have just been tired since we came back from camping last Sunday, and my son got laid off too, so they are moving in this weekend! My grandson also has a collie dog, and 3 guinea pigs! Help! LOL!!! I hope everything works out! We went to the coast of WA. and camped, it was cold, but worth it! It is gorgeous, now you have to come back and explore the beaches on the coast! The rain forest was fun too, so pretty with moss everywhere! But a lot of hiking, I thought I would not make it back on one of the trails that went down to the beach! I will catch you later, take care, and say HI! to Linda and Kay for me too! Deb xoxox
9/14/2011 12:14:32 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thanks for the birthday wishes, yes it is the 7th of Sept. Thanks for stopping by and yes my theme today is Leaving on a Jet Plane. I am super excited!!! The day is finally come. I hope to return with tons of great snapshots. Have a great weekend Jamie and love to Linda. xoxoxoxo

9/13/2011 4:22:12 PM - 001017544077
@Jean and @Jamie and @Kay.... and all other goobers headed to St. Louis....You MUST (i repeat), you must bring with you a family tree diagram. Complete with wanna be family, not really family but act like it, head momma (linda), true relations family and just exactly how everyone else fits into this tree! :)
9/13/2011 3:20:59 PM - 002025703401
Yes Ma'am!!!
9/13/2011 3:10:01 PM - 002029331419

9/13/2011 2:48:30 PM - 002025703401
HA! Started walking again yesterday..... where is the rain?
9/13/2011 2:30:59 PM - 002029331419
It came to me this morning what will bring rain to TX...well, Houston anyway...............start your walking course again!! You know if you start walking in the morning...those rain clouds will form and it will rain!!! Danny has come over 3 times on his bike....every time...RAIN! Last night included...!! I told him it's to bad he didn't buy it back in May...we wouldn't have had all of the fires! haha!!
Well........Keep your good eye on the Goobers...and I will catch you in about 2 weeks!! :0)
9/13/2011 2:47:30 AM - 002025703401
Don't think I'm gonna take the big camera to see Paula Deen, but I'll have the iphone! ;0)
Save your unpacking for me Jean.......... LOL!!!!!!!!!!
Sharon - Gonna work on the hotels again after Jean's cruise.
Kay - You were gone??? ;0)
Joanne - Lucky, our little corner of Texas received a small amount of rain from TS Lee. Not as bad as the rest of the state, but we are now very dry again......... the whole state needs rain!
9/12/2011 4:59:46 PM - 002029331419
Kay saw Wynona Judd at the Albuquerque Airport....just strolling along!! haha!!
Can you take pictures at Paula Deen's show??!!
9/12/2011 3:35:33 PM - 001017544077
Hi Jamie... What (if anything) do I need to do for St. Louis for the hotel accommodations?
9/12/2011 3:34:10 PM - 001017544077
Welcome home Kay! Hope your cruise was wonderful...now is the part about posting pictures. We all want to live vicariously through you (and your pictures). Wanna hear about it too.

Jamie, hope all is well in your part of Texas. I've been seeing on the news the wildfires. Is Linda's home and area okay. I can't believe all the fury mother nature has unleashed. My blessings to all and I hope these fires will soon be out. Have a good weekend.
9/8/2011 8:04:54 PM - 002029331419
Will you come pack for me?...or maybe just in time to unpack for me!!....hehehehehe!
9/8/2011 3:06:54 PM - 002029331419
Well...at least you weren't sitting around in your Jamie chair...! :0)
9/7/2011 2:40:39 AM - 002025703401
Lets see..... rain dancing, shrimp, goober stalking, more rain dancing, BBQ, and laundry. That about covers it! :)
9/6/2011 10:23:22 PM - 002029331419
What kind of trouble have you been up to....since I've been a bit distracted this weekend...??
9/1/2011 7:01:11 PM - 002025703401
Don't forget that umbrella!
9/1/2011 6:14:24 PM - 002086548916
Watching the weather reports...sure looks like ya'll are bound for lots of rain!!! Maybe that Rain will head towards Dallas to help out the fires going on out that direction. 2 and half more hours!!!
8/31/2011 8:19:35 PM - 002086548916
An umbrella? Do you really think I need to pack one? Maybe I will leave it at home and hope for the best. My suitecase is almost at limit....haha.
8/31/2011 8:07:50 PM - 002088910291
We are leaving for the coast of WA. this coming Tuesday! We plan to camp in the tent all the way, if it doesn't start raining to much! So far the weather has been in the 70's, a few 80's, and next week is suppose to be in the 80's here, but should be much colder on the coast! We are going up to the tip of Neah Bay! Then down thru the Hoh rain forest! I don't know which way we are going yet, we always wing it! Catch you when we get back! Deb xoxox
8/31/2011 3:38:16 PM - 002025703401
Possible...... don't forget to pack an umbrella and rain poncho. Packing them seems to hold off the rain for us on vacation.
8/30/2011 9:40:36 PM - 002086548916
I am so glad you are supposed to get rain for the whole weekend!!!!! I wonder if it will rain on the ship as we head south?
8/30/2011 7:25:59 PM - 002029331419
You all need the rain!! and ...even that fresh rain water everywhere....it will be good! :0) maybe bring the temps down while it's at it!
Right now... I don't have any plans...but that could always change! ha!
8/30/2011 12:21:53 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, thanks for checking up on me & my family. Please tell your Mom I thank her for her concern too. On Sunday once Irene left we lost out lights from the afternoon and all through the evening into the next morning. And no landline phone either. People are still without lights in some areas. As you know all too well even a Cat 1 or storm can do alot of damage. I am thankful I had no major damage and that I have friends like you, Linda, Lisa and all the other goobers who were thinking of me. xoxoxoxxo I am blessed.Jamie my mom got about ankle deep water and borrowed a pump to drain out the water in her basement. All her neighbors also had some water. No mold as of yet. On the bright side, you are right I can start packing and get ready for my cruise. Although everytime I hear about Jose and there is a K storm also forming I do get a bit nervous. 
I am getting excited!!! No plans for Labor Day, I will probably visit my mom since I haven't seen her in 2 weeks. Will you be having a BBQ? Whatever your plans stay safe and enjoy. Thanks again for your thoughts and good wishes.
8/30/2011 12:02:32 PM - 002025703401
BBQ and rain!!!! I can handle it! :0)
8/30/2011 2:30:06 AM - 002067758981
70% chance of rain Friday, Saturday and Sunday.........yea!!!! Bring it on.
8/29/2011 7:11:12 PM - 002029331419
Long weekend at the beach house.....n i c e!! You'll be glad to have that extra day!!
8/28/2011 7:55:34 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie & Linda, Irene is gone and all though my neighborhood faired pretty well, my mom did get some flooding in her basement. No downed trees on my block and we did not lose our lights. Thank you Lord. Now let's pray Jose stays away. The winds here were more powerful during the night and now the rain has returned. Our transportation system is still no service. And they say sunshine all this week, go figure. Thanks ladies for thinking of me. xoxoxoxo
8/25/2011 5:02:49 PM - 002029331419
Yea, Rain!!
I hope the Hurricane season isn't bad this year.!!
8/25/2011 1:53:42 AM - 002067758981
Rain, rain, wonderful rain this afternoon and temps in 70's!!! Thank you, Lord.
Jean, you be careful about moving that high, have the whole month of September to go thur storm season. Hurricanes scare the living daylights outta me!!! Lived here all my life and didn't worry too much about them until Rita and Ike. That's all I want to live thru and see our friends and neighbors go thru.
8/25/2011 1:36:24 AM - 002088910291
Jamie, I have been trying to get around all my share sites, but am having a hard time with having my grandson here off and on the last few weeks, cutting down all the dead flowers, and trying to make two books before today! One of my books took me a long time, because it was pics of my neighbors dog since she was 6 weeks old until now, a year and two months of work, but it paid off, and they loved their book which came yesterday! I had to narrow down to 200 pics, and then chose 171 for the book, and did it in 79 pages! It was a 12 X 12, and it is in the old gallery, called DAISY MAE, in the pet section! Speaking of the gallery I have not even had time to look at books for awhile either! I want to take the time to look at all your WA. photos! I have looked at a lot of them, but have not commented yet! It is cool to see your own state in photos thru others eyes! You did a fantastic job on your page and the photography! Catch you soon, and thanks for stopping by my site to see what has happened to me! Tell Kay and mom Hi! for me too! Deb xoxox
8/24/2011 2:36:27 PM - 002025703401
Well....... our neighbors in New Mexico need to blow that nasty old high pressure cell out of here!! :0)
8/24/2011 2:26:53 PM - 002029331419
...did I say Hurricane?? ;0) .... This desert gal knows the difference between sprinking, down pours, monsoons, flash flooding, Tropical Storms ....and Hurricane's!! The Hurricane's can stay out at sea..... But really....if that High Pressure Cell would move off of TX....it could possibly bring some cooler temps - AND maybe a few showers!!
Work with me here Jamie.... I'm trying to get ya some relief!! :0)
8/23/2011 10:49:48 PM - 002086548916
Did you see the Tropical Storm that is headed towards Mexico City...I hope that we don't get hit in the line of any storm either!!!
8/23/2011 8:01:01 PM - 002025703401
Tropical storm yes...... Hurricane...... NO!!!
8/23/2011 7:44:06 PM - 002029331419
I think this one time.....TX could use some tropical rains from Irene....
8/23/2011 3:16:23 PM - 001017544077

8/16/2011 3:43:48 PM - 002029331419
Loved the Post Cards!! And I told Steve...we're going to WA one of these days..... he didn't put up much of an argument! haha!
We sure enjoyed being in the mountains over the weekend. Sad to see so much damage from the fire...but not close to where we camp. I'll have pics up soon! We are wondering about getting in one more trip before Italy...maybe... and then we get home and take the trailer to the Fiesta, then put away for the winter! Wow...I think time is speeding up on me!
8/16/2011 12:36:38 AM - 001062713509
Your WA state pics are fabulous. My Aunt & Uncle live in Puyallup, with Mt. Rainer outside their window. I should go visit them :)
8/13/2011 3:56:41 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, thanks a bunch for the postcards. LOVED them all and I shall add Washington State to my bucket list. It looks so amazing from not only the postcards but all your photos. Thanks again. Have a great weekend QG.

8/11/2011 3:00:21 PM - 002029331419
I don't know.... I do too!! ?!?!
8/11/2011 2:36:56 PM - 002025703401
Why do I have a job where the work multiplies while I'm on vacation???
8/9/2011 8:04:36 PM - 002025703401
Payton is working on a shirt for Saturday. Friday and Sunday...... "normal" goober wear! LOL!!!

Jamie, I have my whale page complete and online on my share site! I stayed up late to finish it! Deb
8/4/2011 8:04:26 PM - 002088910291
I really loved all the great pics you got on the trip, Jamie! You captured the whale trip fantastic! I can't wait to see what else we are in store for! A delight I am sure! You are so good at catching people shots, a lot of mine that I thought would be good came out dark on the faces! I hate that!!! I need more practice, practice, practice!!! Deb xoxox
8/4/2011 6:45:59 PM - 002029331419
Eagle pics are good!! They are hard to capture!! Your flower shots are nice too! Looks like a nice but overcast day there!
8/3/2011 7:47:15 PM - 002086548916
Agh! I left a comment and it didn't stay here :(
Your pictures are totally awesome from the whale watching! So glad you got to see a lot of whales and captured many pictures!!! Looking forward to more!
8/3/2011 4:05:04 PM - 002067758981
Debbie's prayers for good weather was heard!!!! Most beautiful day for being on the water. Love the pictures, Jamie. Great job!!

Nice day on the water!!...= really nice pictures!!
8/3/2011 3:56:54 PM - 002025703401
We were blessed with the most perfect weather on the day of the whale watching!
8/3/2011 3:52:17 PM - 002029331419
Love how calm the water was!!
8/3/2011 3:28:35 PM - 002067758981

8/2/2011 11:34:44 PM - 002088910291
Jamie, I am so glad that you had such a good time here in Washington! I love the reflection shot at the top of the page, beautiful! I can't wait to see your pictures! I will be able to see some of my state that I have not been to in a while! Everyday I looked at your travel schedule you sent me and was hoping for a little warmer weather for you, and no rain! I kept saying, please no rain today, but know you were sprinkled on in Whidbey Island! I was surprised to hear there was still snow on that side of Rainier, but glad you did find some flowers! It has just been so cold for summer, but I love it this way! Glad you are all safe and sound, and hope rested up from your trip! Deb xoxox
8/2/2011 3:37:52 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, just a quick Hello. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, your Washington State page. WOW the header is perfect. I shall return to explore in depth. I am glad you had a getaway from the Texas heat. I hope it cools off for you real soon. My cruise is only 6 weeks away and I'm am so excited!! I will be back soon to explore your WA page. Love to Linda. xoxoxoxo
8/2/2011 12:54:55 PM - 002086548916
Look at your starting your page! I am so glad I am not the only proactive one who gets their pics up right away :)
8/1/2011 8:52:13 PM - 002067758981
Good start, Jamie!!!! Flowers and view were great.
8/1/2011 4:08:30 AM - 002086548916
oooo!!!!!!!!!!! Love that header!!! How long should we give you to get all your pictures up? 2 days? okay! I'll come back in 2 days!
8/1/2011 3:32:14 AM - 002025703401
You like? Accidental photo...... waiting on Mom and looking at a little flower garden when I see this shot across the pond.
8/1/2011 2:56:59 AM - 002029331419
LOVVVVVVVVVVVE your Header!!!

HOME again, and so many wonderful memories!!! Almost ready to pack again.....lol
7/31/2011 2:37:08 PM - 002025703401
I'm home!!!! What a COOL relief trip! Washington state is soooo beautiful. We had a great time and I have nearly 3500 pictures to edit. Mt Rainier was awesome. Snow still on the ground at Paradise. So no wildflowers at Paradise, but we found some in other parts of the park. Mom and Kay did protest some over the lack of TV and cellular reception in the park, but we did survive after I provided entertainment! LOL!!!
My favorite hightlights: whale watching with Debbie, crab dishes, clam chowder, fresh rainier cherries, cool temps, Cascade National Park, and Mt Rainier National Park.
7/31/2011 3:12:35 AM - 002029331419
So Glad you are home......ahem.... I missed ya!!!
7/29/2011 1:19:09 AM - 002088910291
Jamie, I wanted to be the first to welcome you home! I had so much fun on the boat cruise, it was such a beautiful day! I kept hoping the weather would cooperate for you, especially when you went to the mountains! Hope there was some wild flowers, and that all went smooth for you guys! It was so nice to get to finally know you better! You are all so sweet! My pics of whales did not show a whole lot, but I did not care, it was fun anyway! Hope you got some good ones on your trip around the state! Anxious to see what you came up with! I have to say your mom's IPhone pics are really good over to the right! Dad went home finally today in the afternoon, and I am trying to catch up in the gallery, and hit your site! I know you will all be tired too, from the trip and plane ride! Hope you can get some rest before you have to go back to work! Deb xoxox
7/26/2011 3:44:14 AM - 002086548916
It was 103 in Pueblo today on the way to dinner....ahhh....so nice and refreshing!!!!
7/23/2011 4:53:44 PM - 001076975951
Safe travels Jamie.....You would travel with the clothes on your back and make sure the camera and memory cards were all packed away. Can't wait to see what you return with. Have fun and enjoy every moment. Hope you have perfect weather too.

Camera gear and other stuff cleaned and packed. Maybe I should pack some clothes too?
7/21/2011 4:41:05 PM - 002088910291
Jamie, Looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday at 8:30 at the whale watching tour! I checked on it, and they said that they had been seeing whales everyday! Great news! And the weather is going to be sunny! I am excited, I have been on a humpback whale trip before in Oregon, but never an Orca trip right by where I live almost! It will take me about an hour and 15 minutes to get to Anacortes! See you soon, Deb xoxox
7/20/2011 5:45:09 PM - 002086548916
Hey QG!!! I hope you aren't working too hard today..you leave in 2 days!!!

7/6/2011 5:51:08 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Hope you had a healthy, happy and safe July 4th. Joe and I and the girls went into Manhattan.... Central Park and Lincoln Center just to spend the day out. The day before it rained and was dreary but the 4th was beautiful.
Not to worry that you haven't been on Shutterfly site. I think there are times that I too don't visit on a regular basis. After all work is important. How else will the Queen Goober pay for her getaways. Washington State....That is going to be amazing. I can't wait to see you photos and books. You will have a fabulous time I am sure of it.
Too bad Texas is always having extremely HOT temps and dry spells. Stay cool and keep on working so you'll be taking many more adventures. Thanks for stopping by and take care.
7/6/2011 3:08:39 PM - 002025703401
Working......... and in full trip planning mode. Programming GPS for our driving tour of Washington state at the of the month! Can't wait!!!

Hey, you have been quiet...what have you been up to?

I thought your hair was already dyed?
7/1/2011 2:29:34 PM - 001024320926
Fun times!!! Love all the pictures!! I'm dying my hair and losing 500 pounds before November.............
7/1/2011 1:49:40 PM - 002086548916
Happy July 1! I will be back to look at Goober pictures! Can't wait to see your pictures!

6/29/2011 9:28:16 PM - 002086548916
Hello and Good Day! The job hunting is really slow this week. But I interviewed for a company on Monday, that went well, and another called me today asking to interview me. If I don't get the first job, then I have a shot at another position, which is great! Crossing my fingers!
Have a great day, Queen!
6/28/2011 6:20:17 PM - 001076975951
One more thing...O LOVE your header. Amazing. Picture perfect postcard.

Good day Queen Goober. Hope all is well. Thanks for stopping by. Sorry to hear that the heat came way too early and that you are having a heat wave. How is your family and hope everyone is somehow keeping cool.
LOL Jamie work pays for your adventures and getaways. So keep on trucking my dear. Washington State, WOW that trip is going to be amazing. send me a postcard. Who is going with you? my cruise is 80 days away I am so excited!!
Let's hope the hurricanes and few and far away. We don't want any hurricanes we have already had floods and twisters and more damage than one nation can take.
Jamie, Have a HAPPY JULY 4th. Be safe and have fun. And God Bless the USA!!!
Be well xoxoxoxo Regards to Linda.

Jamie, I just wrote you a note, and was stupid enough to not save it before I clicked on something else! I can't wait to go on our trip together, that is going to be so much fun, except the getting up early part to drive to Anacortes by 8:30! If I was driving with someone it would be different! I just forced myself in the house from weeding, my face is beat red from bending over so long! I think I will lay down a while, you know how these old ladies get! LOL!!! I will try my best to order no rain and temps in the 70's! That's my favorite! Maybe it could be a little warmer since we will be on the water! We better see whales!! I read that there was a lot of good sightings this year, like about 98%! See you soon, and say HI! to Kay, and your mom for me too! Deb xoxox

Anyway I'm here and hope you and your family are all well. How was your weekend? You always have so much to share and it is always so much fun to come by. Please say hi to your Mom. Anyway come by when you get a chance I do have some new pics. Went to the BBG Botanical Gardens again.

Jamie, I never even thought to take a pic of the light house at Mukilteo, at the Clinton ferry! It is something I just grew up seeing so much, that I did not even think of it! You will be having a great time at the Celtic Women this Friday!! That is so cool!!! Have fun, I know you will!!!!
5/18/2011 3:08:11 PM - 002025703401
We are very excited that Celtic Women is coming to Beaumont. Thought we would have to see them in Houston. Can't wait for Friday night!
5/18/2011 1:05:46 AM - 002088910291
Jamie, First, Thanks for checking on me on my share site, and leaving words of encouragement! Wow! Just looked to my right and saw some very gorgeous lilly photos! I made it to Meerkeerk Gardens! I am so tired I hope I didn't tell you this already, the gardens were gorgeous, and I am going to make a page of them soon! Will let you know! It is always fun to see others pics of places you have been too! I hope you like them! Then we took the Clinton ferry home, it was about 10 minutes from the gardens, and then about 15 minutes to the house! I never knew there was that little gem so close to me all these years! Thanks for the tip! Deb xoxox
5/17/2011 5:43:25 PM - 002086548916
I'm workin the best I can....but the plan seems to be coming together!!!
So cool you get to see the Celtic Women! They are so amazing on TV, I bet this show will be spectacular!!!!!!!!!!!!

We may need an interpreter for Friday night!
Kay, I'm working you into my calendar...... work with me! ;0)
5/17/2011 2:07:31 PM - 002029331419

5/16/2011 7:54:18 PM - 002086548916
Oh, you will see me! I just have to find out if it will be before the cruise in Galveston, or after in Beaumont. What does your schedule look like? When would be best for you?
5/16/2011 4:22:07 PM - 002025703401
I'll be mad if I don't see you!!!
5/16/2011 3:52:45 PM - 002086548916
I looked at Mapquest and I think she is about 10 minutes from your work. Yeah, it is a small world!
Yes! let's all hope for a great week...and one that flies by too! That would be lovely.
5/16/2011 3:50:31 PM - 002029331419

Are you having a good weekend? Found out yesterday that Rob's mom has moved to Beaumont...so we might try and meet up after the cruise, if it works for you. I need to email her and see what would be better/easier on her...before or after the cruise! I definatly want to try my hardest to see you!!!!
5/13/2011 2:50:43 PM - 002029331419
You won't have ANY problem using that extra time off!!...I'm sure!!
5/13/2011 2:43:24 PM - 002086548916
So it was all worth working late! Nice!
5/13/2011 2:47:07 AM - 002025703401

Jamie, Thanks for the Mother's day wishes. Spent the day with my mom. First Joe & the girls treated me to breakfast at out favorite dinner. After mass went to visit my mom. Weather is sunny here but still cool and a bit windy.
You said you have a veggie garden, Joe planted some tomatoes, basil, strawberries and some flowers too. Squash? Not one of my favorites. My mom use to cook squash with a pasta dish. Enjoy all the veggies.
How was Linda's Mother's Day? Did everyone have a good time at Shangri La Botanical Gardens? I will be back tomorrow to explore what new photos you have my allergies are acting up this past week. All my best Queen Goober. And say hi to Linda fpr me too. xoxoxo

Jamie, We did make it to Meerkerk Gardens today after riding over the pass to the island from Laconner! There are still some that have not bloomed out yet, but it was gorgeous! We loved it, and will go back some time soon to see the rest of the blooms if we get the chance! I certainly would recommend it for this time of the year especially with all the rhododendrons! Thanks for the travel tip! It was cloudy, but the lighting good I thought! No rain at all! deb
5/9/2011 7:21:52 PM - 002029331419
Linda...Your flowers have been just beautiful this spring!! What Summer flowers will you be seeing soon? The Lilies are so bright!!

5/6/2011 2:58:09 PM - 002086548916
Momma can add or subtract from the menu at any given time without notice.....that's why its Mother's Day Weekend!!!!
5/6/2011 2:26:24 PM - 002025703401
I don't remember squash being on the menu you gave me!!!!
5/6/2011 2:14:38 PM - 002029331419
How fun Linda!! I hope your Big Momma's weekend is terrific!! I've got my Mom covered and she's loving it! :0)

I didn't give Marcia the plague..... I think..... well, maybe not.......
Marcia feels like she's not going to die now, so that's an improvement. She sent me a picture from the Grand Canyon this afternoon. :)
4/28/2011 8:36:23 PM - 001024320926
You gave Marcia the plague! Hope she's feeling better soon!!

Jamie, I do have one page up of my early trip to the gardens, Roozengaarde, It is my second page, and is just called Flowers of 2011! I hope to post some more of the tulips that were out the last trip I took! The first trip was early before a lot of tulips were out, but the daffodils, and Hyacinths were starting to bloom!
4/23/2011 2:06:16 AM - 002025703401
Awesome Debbie! Can't wait for a report.
4/23/2011 1:50:48 AM - 002088910291
Jamie, Thanks for the tip about the Meerkirk gardens on Whidbey, because I was wondering if they were worth going to! Have a great weekend what ever you do!!! OH! and some of the rhodies have bloomed, but not the peak of them yet! Mostly more azaleas! Deb xoxox

Jamie, thanks for coming by. I too think of you and the other goobers often even though I have been MIA.
Love your new header my friend. Let's see what's been happening: Joe is back at work. Yesterday went into NYC and saw a taping of the Nate Berkus show. It was not live it will air sometime next week. I hope to go back and see another taping soon.
Tonight Holy Thursday services and Easter Sunday will spend it with my Mom and I hope it is beautiful and sunny. We have been having crappy weather and lots of rain. Parts of N.J. are flooded. Those poor people.
Thanks for coming by to say Hi. A big hello & hug for your Mom. (Hi Linda) Anyway have a HAPPY EASTER and many blessings to you Jamie, you are so thoughtful and kind. It is a treat to come by here and explore your pages.
Be well xoxoxoxo

4/10/2011 10:01:43 PM - 002086548916
I will be back tomorrow to check out your page and comment on the pictures, it will give me something to do at work to help the day go by faster! Love the pictures you have posted on FB so far.
I hope you are feeling better!!!! Have a great rest of your Sunday!
4/8/2011 7:31:42 PM - 002067758981
We'll get another dose of pollen tomorrow!!!
4/8/2011 6:44:56 PM - 002025703401
Everything is my fault..... at least Lisa thinks so! :)
Real life keeps getting in my way Jean. I have to let you beat me every once in a while! :)
What spare time I have is spent sleeping. I am happy to report that I'm starting to feel better. Jean called last night and could hear the improvement in my voice. Cough is much better but still lingering............. :(
4/7/2011 10:53:32 PM - 001024320926
How are you doing? I think that you sent your germs to me!! I totally blame you, just cause!
You should see all the bluebonnets around here now, wow, more than last year. I'm shocked really. Supposed to go to Lorri's dads property on Sunday, he says it's covered. Looking forward to sneezing and itching for three hours afterwards too!
4/7/2011 9:10:12 PM - 002086548916
SHOCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4/7/2011 3:44:27 PM - 002029331419
Where's your pictures, Jamie!!! Whaaaaaaat.... I have mine up first!!?? No WAY!!! I'm writing this down somewhere...getting a pencil!! :0)
4/6/2011 2:57:36 PM - 002086548916
Make sure on your list you put #1-Get better. #2-Rest. #3 Repeat #1 and #2 for a few days before moving onto #4.
I really hope you start to feel better and get caught up on your rest!
4/5/2011 8:56:25 PM - 002025703401
..... and I'm making a list of more things to do!!! :)
4/5/2011 8:50:40 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie!!.... What could we have cut out?? We wanted to do it all!! Rest up Girlie so you'll start feeling better!
4/5/2011 6:24:34 PM - 002025703401
Hey Kay! Busy with work but the main problem is I'm still sick. I didn't sleep much when we were on vacation and it's caught up with me. I'm starting to get better but very tired so I seem to fall asleep as soon as I sit down at home. The medication makes me sleepy too. :(
4/5/2011 5:09:25 PM - 002086548916
You have ebeen very quiet on the sites and facebook.....you must be really busy with work! Hope you are having a great day!
4/4/2011 3:21:12 PM - 002086548916
Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend!
4/4/2011 3:14:19 PM - 002025703401
Yup..... and a busy one at that! :(

4/1/2011 4:16:26 PM - 002035648808
Hi Jamie....Stopped by to see what you are up too. Work has kept me really busy. I am trying to get back in the swing of things. Hope you all had a great trip.

3/18/2011 2:25:25 AM - 002067758981
I'll bring my little bag of goodies for colds.....that should scare all of it out of you.
3/17/2011 9:45:53 PM - 002086548916
And I will be doubly miserable here. Miserable with my allergies and miserable wondering what you are laughing about now.
3/17/2011 9:23:22 PM - 002025703401
I think it's allergies but who knows. We can all cough and sneeze together on VACATION!
3/17/2011 8:52:02 PM - 002029331419
Jamie.....you sure it's not a bunch of allergy symptoms????????? I cough with my allergies....which just got a big ol' stir at lunchtime...now my head is stuffy...and I'm sneezing ! :0(
3/17/2011 8:50:38 PM - 002025703401
HA! In your dreams!!!
3/17/2011 8:48:13 PM - 002086548916
Momma Linda, maybe if we all boss her around, she will listen to one of us?
3/17/2011 6:46:19 PM - 002067758981
Yeah, what Kay says, Jamie!!!
3/17/2011 5:54:59 PM - 002086548916
NOOOO!!!!!! Not now!! Quick, grab the EmergenC or Airborne, or whatever you need to take. You are going on vacation and cannot be sick! And that's an order!
3/17/2011 3:36:25 PM - 002025703401
Working on catching a cold now......... :(
3/17/2011 1:22:14 PM - 002086548916
I totally would come and be the baggage handler/runner for everyone!! I wish!
3/16/2011 8:28:54 PM - 002025703401
Your services as a baggage handler are need Kay!
3/16/2011 8:20:53 PM - 002086548916
I'll make sure to bring my goggles and mouthguard to avoid the bugs. LOL. Thanks Ladies, I really think I will be missing out! I tried to get Rob to agree to letting me go "for my mom's health"...but he didn't buy it. Maybe next time.....sighhhh............
3/16/2011 7:37:10 PM - 002025703401
I'll bring some rope and we'll tie Kay on top of the vehicle!
3/16/2011 4:56:14 PM - 002067758981
Yeah, that'll work!!!
3/16/2011 4:50:36 PM - 002029331419
Linda... sneak? ... How about I just stuff her in there and bring her along??
Love ya, Kay.....
3/16/2011 4:38:52 PM - 002067758981
Kay, Jamie's going!!! There will be video. Going to miss miss you, couldn't you just sneak into your Mom's bag?
3/16/2011 2:52:06 PM - 002086548916
Okay so maybe it's not a cure....but you all can be distracted and not think about your allergies. LOL. Or maybe all of your sneezing and watery eyes will make you laugh even more? Will there be video?
3/15/2011 11:44:14 PM - 002067758981
I'm good reguardless of all the gooberness going on today in San Antonio Adventures!!!!
3/15/2011 9:51:27 PM - 001024320926
There's a cure, I didn't know, I didn't know! Someone turn the light on I'm in the dark! LOL!
Work is a beast right now so I am intentionally taking a break!!!!!
Hi Linda hope you're doing well.
3/15/2011 3:38:10 PM - 002086548916
Maybe being by the Riverwalk, laughing with everyone over dinner, and taking pictures...that will cure the Allergies?
3/15/2011 2:08:17 PM - 002025703401
Everything is better when you're on vacation! :)
3/15/2011 2:04:04 PM - 002029331419
Speaking of Allergies... I was doing fine at home....get to work...eeeeek...I'm a mess!! And sneezing doesn't come very easy for me these days!! My eyes...watering all down my face!! aargh!!
So Jamie.... are your allergies better in the Hill country??
3/14/2011 5:16:49 PM - 002086548916
Hey, that's probably a good idea...and you don't have to mess with all that loose pollen and allergies either. Another plus! So sorry to hear you are struggling with the allergies...yuck!
3/14/2011 4:57:03 PM - 002025703401
Mom & I decided I should pay someone to clean out the flowerbeds...... NO RASH for Jamie!!! :(
3/13/2011 4:38:37 PM - 002086548916
Jamie, be careful when doing yard work...and be sure to wear long sleeves and gloves!
It has been so beautiful outside, I wish I had a yard to work in....oh wait, never mind, I am sure I would still find reasons not to do the yardwork. LOL.
3/12/2011 6:34:13 PM - 002067758981
Yard work? Jamie? lol
3/12/2011 4:14:12 PM - 001024320926
How could you forget the rash??! I remember the rash! Pay your dad! or tell your mom to get onto your dad, ask him if he remembers the rash!!
No winners on the lottery ticket, my ESP must be off because I know I am supposed to win! I'll try again, and again, and again, and again........................wait isn't that Texas' plan!
3/12/2011 2:13:26 AM - 002025703401
How could I forget the rash?!?!?!?
3/12/2011 1:37:01 AM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie....easy on that yard work this weekend... I remember someone having quite a rash last year!
3/11/2011 6:52:09 PM - 001024320926
Lottery ticket day!! Gimme two!
3/11/2011 2:17:44 AM - 002035648808
Hi Jamie...thought I would stop by and see what you are up to. No good, ahahahaha, as usual, jkg. Hey, I just found the Traveling Shutterfly buddies page. Cool. If I saw it before, I have alzhemeir's and forgot. Ahahahhaa, highly possible these days. Be good or I will tell Momma.
3/10/2011 10:47:31 PM - 002086548916
Tomorrow is Friday!
3/10/2011 7:06:36 PM - 001024320926
Sunny today, about to head outside for a little walk :)
3/10/2011 2:49:20 PM - 002086548916
We need some rain here...there are some pretty bad wildfires going on, and it is just the start of spring. Could be a long summer for our fire fighters!
3/10/2011 2:43:27 AM - 002025703401
Rain is watering the wildflowers!
3/9/2011 9:58:47 PM - 001024320926
Congrats! that's awesome news on the house!!
It stormed here pretty good last night, we needed the water but I think it all came at once, the lake is full!!

Jamie, thanks for stopping by even though I have been MIA lately. YES!! you are the true Queen Goober and no one can take that title away from you. Just wanted to say I did not forget my Shutterfly friends and I hope to visit on a regular basis very soon. I also need to start snapping again. Have a DDS appointment today but just wanted to say HI!! REGARDS TO LINDA. XOXOXOXO
3/9/2011 3:18:08 PM - 002086548916

3/8/2011 10:24:47 PM - 002086548916
WOOOO HOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats Jamie! That is the most amazing news!!!!! What are you going to do to celebrate with that refund check? Go shopping? Take Linda for a massage? Go to dinner?
3/8/2011 10:00:10 PM - 002025703401
Guess what I found out today? Thought I still had 2 more house payments, but it seems my last payment paid it off and they sent me a refund check for the difference.
MY HOUSE IS PAID IN FULL!!!!
3/8/2011 2:19:53 PM - 002086548916
Good Morning! I hope you are having a great morning so far! I am relying on you to keep me company today ;)

Wow, that is so funny!!!!! Goober moment for sure!
3/7/2011 3:48:24 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie!! What's going on??
I have a story for you from the weekend!!!
The gal we traveled with was so funny...she did a great Goober move.... The day we were leaving there was some extra nice handlotion at the counter and so we both got some. When we were rubbing them on our hands, she tells me that when she was getting ready that morning..she put lotion all over and when she put the little hotel bottle down, she saw another one and was trying to read the small print on it and it said lotion...so when she looked again..she realize that she put conditioner on her instead of the lotion!!!!!!! LOOOOL!!!... I about fell out of my chair laughing...!! I told her that had to be the best Goober Move all weekend!! LOOL!!!

Jamie Jamie! I just was browsing through your photos. LOVE LOVE them. Durango looks like such a quaint town. I love all the signs you photographed. Great scenerey and a great bunch of Durango gals and guys - all the photos of all of you made me feel like i was right there. I didn't finish the first album. I love that photo on the bottom too. Simply incredible. I'm glad I finally stopped by. I know your photos are better than the snobby photographers that were there. They'd be in awe with your sites. I still have more sites to see.
LOVED LOVED these. Did one of you hand your card out to the conductors? They would love to see these!! Make them a 5x7 book!! Truly enjoyed the pics - made me smile and laugh and miss u all!
Do you have a flower mode on your camera?? hahaahhaaha - just kidding!
3/5/2011 6:22:54 PM - 001076975951
Jamie aka Queen Goober hope you & your family are well. I have had a wonderful time viewing your Durango photos. Just fabulous. I too am beginning to get the itch to shoot flower and garden photos. Rain is on it way here but let's hope it brings a season of flowers galore. Say hi to your mom. Enjoy your weekend. xoxoxo
3/5/2011 5:07:40 PM - 002025703401
It's raining this morning in all the important Texas wildflower areas....... hope it's enough! Wildflower season is fast aproaching!!!
3/4/2011 4:35:53 PM - 002025703401
I'm in the flower mode now!!!
3/3/2011 6:19:51 PM - 002029331419
Yay!! Rain for thirsy wildflowers!! Perfect!! Sad that theres no beach or parade...you had such lovely hats from last years event!!
3/3/2011 4:21:23 PM - 002086548916
Ahhh, sorry you can't go this weekend! That's a bummer.
Are you busy today? The clock just ain't tickin here, and I'm hungry!
3/3/2011 3:48:39 PM - 002025703401
70% rain on Saturday, so no beach or parade this weekend. Maybe we can head to the beach the next weekend. One good thing, the rain will water the wildflowers.......... :)
3/2/2011 8:22:48 PM - 001024320926
I combed all thru the Durango photos and I loooove them!! The videos had me rolling on the floor!! Oh my gosh I am such a goober!! I'm gonna keep my eyes more opened!
3/2/2011 3:53:45 PM - 002086548916
Uh-oh...that's not good. I bet you will still have a good time though! Take lots of pictures :)
3/2/2011 3:45:18 PM - 002025703401
Mardi Gras Parade on Saturday, but the weather is not looking good. :(
3/1/2011 4:19:28 PM - 002086548916

3/1/2011 2:25:30 PM - 001081690819

No ya'll don't sing bad at all, I was always one of those kids that got real embarrassed when I was sang to on my birthday. I did cry, embarrassed and humbled :):):) I love my Goober friends!!
2/27/2011 2:13:09 AM - 002088910291
Jamie, I loved the videos, it seemed like I was there! I especially loved the one on the train, the scenery was gorgeous! It was great to be able to see everyone again, even if it was on video! I loved watching them at their birthday parties too! Thanks for taping those for us! I am glad you all had so much fun! I have to hurry to pack to go to mom's tomorrow again! I just want to stay home! I at least got to have my grandson over for the weekend, since Friday night, and he goes home tomorrow morning! I need a laptop to keep up with shutterfly when I am gone, I need to hop over to Rhonda's to wish her an early Happy Birthday for the 3rd! I am glad I saw that on your calender! Deb xoxox
2/26/2011 9:21:43 PM - 002025703401
I can't believe Lisa was embarrassed....... LISA?????

Busy trying to catch up at working this week and packing.......... Did get my clothes picked out and started charging camera batteries.
2/12/2011 8:06:35 PM - 002088910291
Jamie, I am dropping by to say have a great trip to Durango, and be sure to get packed early, if your like me, I wait till the night before I go! I also am dropping by early to say have a HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!, because I will likely be at my mom's! My brother is there now giving me a break, so I am trying to catch up on a few things on Shutterfly! I can't wait to see the pictures of Durango, I bet they will be gorgeous! I am in the process of making the half price 12 X 12 book that I got an e-mail for! It is about the sky! But I must be done by the 16th, and it is hard to narrow down the pics! Catch you after your trip! Have a great time! Deb xoxox
2/12/2011 1:37:09 AM - 002086548916
On your list? Is it a good list like being on Santa's list means you get presents....Yay, I like being on your list!
2/11/2011 7:27:40 PM - 002025703401
Kay's on my list too!!!
2/11/2011 12:45:41 PM - 002025703401
Hey! I didn't even talk/text Lisa yesterday afternoon. Someone is gonna get hurt..............
2/11/2011 12:45:20 AM - 002067758981
Yep, you can, I do. She's been so busy she won't know until much later that she at fault.
2/10/2011 11:43:52 PM - 001024320926
I have worthless all afternoon!! I blame you! No I don't have a reason I am just blaming you! Linda said I could :)
It is so hot in this office, I am sweating! I swear if they don't fix the problem here I am going to have a breakdown! We called the corporate office and they are supposedly 'working on it'.
2/10/2011 9:14:36 PM - 002086548916
or what about "She works hard for the money....HARD for the money"
2/10/2011 9:07:11 PM - 002086548916
"I've been working on the railroad....all the live long day!"
2/10/2011 8:01:54 PM - 002025703401
Workin, workin, workin..... but in a better mood! :)
2/10/2011 4:03:46 PM - 002086548916
You know the system, and how to beat it. That takes talent! You sound like you are in a great mood this morning! I like it! Been missing you!
2/10/2011 3:55:51 PM - 002025703401
Of course there was doubt (on my part). Boss thinks I have a way with auditors.
I just lay on the southern charm! Sometimes I play dumb, sometimes I play smart..... depends on the auditor, but it works. ;0)
2/10/2011 3:06:57 PM - 002029331419
Good Job, Jamie..................was there ever any doubt??
2/10/2011 1:48:46 PM - 002086548916
We knew the report would be clean as a whistle! great job QG!!!!
2/9/2011 11:01:03 PM - 002025703401
Guess who came out smelling like a rose from the audits? Boss is VERY happy!!! :)
2/9/2011 9:38:59 PM - 002086548916
Oh, and I have been very talkative, you have just had to keep an eye on a few auditors, and plan a trip to ride a train, you have been too busy for me!
2/9/2011 9:00:56 PM - 002086548916
You told me only 1 suitcase, because remember...I was asking for a suitcase of sunshine and you said the airline would charge you for that....just saying!
2/9/2011 8:22:54 PM - 002029331419
You bring as many as the Airline will allow....anyway that's what I saw in San Diego! bahahahha!!
2/9/2011 7:54:54 PM - 002025703401
Too late...... I've already done my own taxes and claimed myself! Awaiting my refund..........
How many suitcases can I bring?
2/9/2011 3:46:06 PM - 002029331419
..a medical expense of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hello....travel fever...............!! :0)
2/9/2011 3:05:39 PM - 002025703401
Claim me as what??????
2/9/2011 1:03:45 AM - 001024320926
This flake is staying home, hoping the roads aren't bad tomorrow ;)
Jamie can I claim you on my taxes? Just for this past year? Please?
2/8/2011 6:05:18 PM - 002029331419
It's going to be good....it's going to be good.....it's going to be good....I hope!
2/8/2011 3:23:40 PM - 002025703401
All I care about is that we have good driving/flying conditions! I'm packing this weekend!!!
2/8/2011 2:06:50 PM - 002086548916
We are expecting more snow tonight...and Durango is getting hit hard today....hopefully it will be sunny when we are there...but it could be snowy....
2/8/2011 12:24:56 AM - 002025703401
Is Lisa planning a visit down south....... LOL!!!!
(I'll be here all week!!!)
2/7/2011 10:04:27 PM - 001024320926
It's probably 60 or 70 there now! it's supposed to be 60 this weekend. First we are expecting sleet and snow on Wednesday and then good weather. I hope that things are nice and quiet when it's time to head to New Mexico :) Maybe I'll send some flakes your way Jamie!
2/7/2011 3:26:04 PM - 002086548916
Did the ice melt yet? Are things warming up out there?
2/6/2011 11:23:58 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, hope you have better weather in the days to come. and a great trip to Durango. Be safe and best reagrds to your mom. xoxoxoxox
2/5/2011 1:11:14 AM - 002025703401
Stayed home due to ice...... Cold and damp here today! Another hard freeze tonight and then 50 degrees tomorrow...... TEXAS!!!
2/4/2011 6:52:24 PM - 002088910291
Jamie, Thanks for stopping by my site the other day! I of course have been super busy trying to take care of everyone, and I needed a reminder now and then to take some time for myself! You are about to go on the train trip I see! You will be having so much fun, that is great! Of course you will have a lot of great pictures to see when you get back, looking forward to them! I am trying to get around to all my members sites to at least say HI! and how are you doing? I hope you are not stuck in snow, but I doubt if a little snow and ice would stop you from going anywhere! If you are slip sliding be very careful, and take care!!!! Deb xoxox
2/4/2011 3:05:54 PM - 002029331419
Oh Gosh...what's the next line??!!.... hehe
Are ya at work today, Jamie???
2/3/2011 11:46:13 PM - 002035648808
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison, And time keeps draggin' on, But that train keeps a-rollin', On down to San Antone.
Just helping Lisa out on her song. Two weeks ladies, two weeks :)
2/3/2011 10:30:38 PM - 002086548916
hahaha.....I tried to keep you safe!!! but you didn't listen......... LOL
2/3/2011 10:29:00 PM - 002025703401
Just fell out thanks to Lisa!!!
2/3/2011 10:27:50 PM - 002086548916
That's why I said to seatbelt herself in!
2/3/2011 10:26:06 PM - 001024320926
LOL!! you know falling out of your chair is a real possibility :) I'm just sayin.............
2/3/2011 10:20:51 PM - 002086548916
And that would be bad! Make sure you seatbelt yourself in!
2/3/2011 10:20:08 PM - 002025703401
The only danger now is me falling out of my chair........... :)
2/3/2011 10:18:16 PM - 002086548916
Ice in Houston! Who would have thought??? You be careful, missy!
2/3/2011 10:05:18 PM - 002029331419
Yeah!! You don't want that new SUV slipping n sliding on ice!! You just got'her!!
Lisa...I bet your having fun singing that one.......are you home too?
2/3/2011 10:03:48 PM - 002025703401
I'm home! Rain mixed with sleet. Seeing some ice forming..........
2/3/2011 9:42:14 PM - 001024320926
Linda says no ice yet, just rain. Jamie you get yourself home before dark!
I hear the train a comin' it's comin' round the bend ...I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
2/3/2011 3:49:24 PM - 002029331419
How's it looking down south today?...you know..."where it's always above 60... hot and humid...year round...."??
Are you stalking fountains today?
2/2/2011 10:44:03 PM - 002086548916
Wow Jamie, you be especially careful!!!
2/2/2011 10:36:52 PM - 002025703401

2/1/2011 10:38:30 PM - 002029331419
There are baby ice cicles all along the red rail on the deck at my office...wonder how big they'll be by tomorrow!?
2/1/2011 8:39:25 PM - 002086548916
I wanna go home!!!! Waaaa!!!! Why won't they just release us???? Waaaa!!!! ... okay, I'm done whining!
2/1/2011 5:14:52 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, thanks for stopping by. I really have had the winter blues and I too have been M.I.A.. Just have been digging out. We had 7 storms since Dec 26 and now ice is on it's way. Need a warm and sunshine boost. Just don't have the passion during this time of year. Not to worry that you haven't been to the sites. Work is important...how else will you pay for your travel addicitions.
How is your family doing? Anyway enjoy your upcoming goober trip and hope you are well. Keep warm and I'll be by to explore what's new. xoxoxoxoxo
At least your flower photos make me happy. Never can go wrong with flower/garden photos and country music. 
1/31/2011 11:23:11 PM - 002025703401
Working to pay for the travels and toys......... I need to win the lottery!!!
1/31/2011 3:45:56 PM - 002029331419
Work does seem to get in the way of our fun......and our work helps us to have fun...so we need the work! haha!
1/31/2011 3:38:29 PM - 002025703401
Hi Guys! Work is keeping me busy. January is a very busy month in the corporate accounting world.... and so is February too! :(
Things should slow down just in time for the Durango trip..... YEAH!!!!!!

Thanks for stopping by my site while I was gone! I am home today, and does it ever feel good, except it was a pretty busy one! We had the fridge and freezer almost cleaned out and had to take a run to Costco! I also changed all the bedding and washed it all, my hubby helped, thank goodness he did the laundry while I was so busy the last two weeks! My dogs, especially my Chopper will not let me out of his site! He is afraid I will disappear before his eyes! I just saw your Crater Lake pic go by on your favorites! It reminded me of our trip there last fall! You sure have been to a lot of gorgeous places! Love your photos! I should take a break for the night on this computer! I just wanted to get to a few of my share buddies sites, and am trying to catch up in the gallery, which I managed to do today! I will catch you later, Deb xoxox
1/30/2011 10:01:50 PM - 002086548916

1/30/2011 1:54:00 PM - 001024320926
Ky is still asleep so I am stealing a few minutes of computer time :)
Hope Gina had a wonderful birthday with friends last night. Scary thinking about the Goobers interperting the user manual for your new spaceship!! LOL!
1/29/2011 2:01:32 AM - 001024320926

Oh gee wilikers! It is only 3 weeks away!
1/26/2011 6:14:44 PM - 001024320926
Payton told me that Durango is three weeks away, WOW!!! It's like I just woke up or something!
1/25/2011 11:34:34 PM - 000076820331
WOOHOO! A 2012 Goober visit to my neck of the woods! I can't wait. I'm trying to figure out when/how I'm going to see you goobs in 2011!!! You're always on the run!
1/25/2011 10:20:02 PM - 002086548916
Yes, and your mom is going to pack one of your suitecases for you....she is going to send me some warm weather! She said she will put the suitecase outside and let it soak up the sunshine, then zip it up and you are going to bring it to me to open on train :) Your mom is so wonderful!
1/25/2011 9:38:13 PM - 002025703401
Do we need a packing list?????? :)
1/25/2011 9:37:57 PM - 001024320926
What do you mean? what do you mean? I know you have lists!
1/25/2011 9:36:18 PM - 001024320926
Wow, it is tax season. I wonder where mine are, should have seen them by now. Extra cash for the spring and summer maybe, woohoo!!
Hard drive issues, oy! Corporate says that it is a defect and under warranty, whew!! They actually called our office saying this was not a case of abuse, whew! I know I don't do anything covert but when the computer acts up I automatically think 'what have I done?'.
How's the lists for Durango going?
1/24/2011 11:25:59 PM - 002067758981
Wooo hoooo, where is Jamie? Working on W2's?
1/24/2011 3:36:36 PM - 002029331419
QG is busy in her Digi-scrappy world......
1/24/2011 1:52:12 PM - 002086548916
Just wanted to say Good Morning to my favorite QG!!!!
1/24/2011 2:52:44 AM - 002029331419
Jamie....I think you have Digi Scrapper Fever now.....not to much to cure it!
1/23/2011 7:17:48 PM - 002067758981
Joanne, watching weather channel and thinking of you in the freezer!!!! Hope it will get better soon for you.
1/22/2011 5:30:49 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, so glad you are feeling better. We are in a deep freeze here sure could go for a Caribbean cruise right about now. Hope you and your family are warm and dry. So what's up for your weekend plans?
1/21/2011 4:25:23 PM - 002086548916
It had been about 5 years, I think..
1/21/2011 3:55:38 PM - 002029331419
Rubber Duckie Photographers .... that's them!! I got their name off a phone booth wall...said they came very highly recommended & cheap too !! LOOL!!
And Kay you don't have to renew your vows just yet....yours is only 4 months old! :0) LOL!!
1/21/2011 3:11:01 PM - 002086548916
I thought you would get a kick out of this! However, I didn't intend for you to actually find a rubber duck hat!
1/21/2011 2:06:04 PM - 002025703401
Now that is funny...... and possible too!
Especially, the yellow rubber duck hats...... Gotta find some!!!! :)
1/21/2011 1:49:26 PM - 002086548916
I must be excited about seeing everyone, because I had another dream about you! I had a dream that Rob and I were going to re-new our vows and in the hustle and bustle of getting things ready, I forgot to book a photographer. While I was getting ready, I went and asked my mom if she booked someone to take pictures, and she just looked at me, and said "I've got it taken care of".... and then, walking through the door was Jamie and Lisa with their cameras, and these enormous, hideous, yellow rubber duck hats. I started crying and fell to my knees because I was so excited to see you, and have you here to take my pictures...I didn't even care about the hats you were wearing!
It was pretty weird.....
1/20/2011 5:41:44 PM - 002025703401
I'm getting really excited about the trip! Less than a month now........
1/20/2011 5:34:02 PM - 002067758981
Good job, Lisa!!! LOL Jean, I know that you all will have a great time and looking forward to seeing proof of it in your pictures. It will be awesome, I know.
1/20/2011 4:00:23 PM - 001024320926
PS: I made it to work with my purse, camera and coat today!!
1/20/2011 3:57:21 PM - 001024320926
it was 40 degress when I got up this morning, rained all the way to work and now the temp outside is 30. I sure hope I don't have to drive in ice to get my hair done, but I'm gonna do what I gotta do!!!
1/20/2011 3:52:09 PM - 002029331419
Chilly will be the temp of the day!
Beauty will be the scenery all day too!!
Fun...well...that'll be pretty much non-stop over the weekend.
Linda...I'll make sure we have pleanty of video so that you can see for yourself
how snow with these Texas girls make them a wee bit on the silly side! :0)
We will sure miss you not being on this adventure, this time...but I sure look forward to some
time with you on the next one!! ;0)
1/20/2011 1:22:10 AM - 002086548916
Tell me about it! Good thing our car is heated! I will start out in the open cart, then when we start climbing, inside I go!
1/19/2011 11:36:48 PM - 002067758981
Kay,you are going to freeze, girl.
1/19/2011 10:50:46 PM - 002025703401
Forty would be nice.........
1/19/2011 8:34:16 PM - 002086548916
It currently feels like 40° in Durango and 12° in Silverton! Just saying.....
1/19/2011 3:28:09 PM - 002029331419
Passhhhhhhhhhhh!! (steam)
1/18/2011 6:54:15 PM - 002086548916
chug-a chug-a, chug-a chug-a...whoo whoo!!!
1/17/2011 9:52:47 PM - 002029331419
If it's as nice down here, up there, when your here...................It's going to be fantastic!! I got a message that one of the trains are sold out...not sure if it's ours - but there were only 4 tickets left!! We'll see!
1/17/2011 5:05:28 PM - 002086548916

1/17/2011 3:36:54 PM - 002025703401
Wha? ME??? Paybacks..... I will get you one of these days!
1/17/2011 2:06:06 PM - 002086548916
Jamie is a Big Goober! She sent me a text message while I was taking a nap trying to wake me up. I left my phone in the other room so I didn't get the message until I woke up....muahahaha.....
1/17/2011 1:50:11 PM - 002025703401
Lisa is a Goob...... that's all I have to say! :)
1/17/2011 1:47:21 PM - 001024320926
OMG!!! I thought I was going to be on the birthday download.....................just noticed your calendar!!
1/17/2011 1:46:42 PM - 001024320926
Are you still LOL at me this morning?? LOL!!!
1/14/2011 7:30:44 PM - 002025703401
Travel Fever is a spreading!!!!!
1/14/2011 4:55:45 PM - 001024320926
I'm ready for Durango, I'm ready for Durango, I'm ready for Durango!!
1/14/2011 3:46:12 PM - 002086548916
Today is Friday...which means, 4 weeks!!!!
1/13/2011 10:42:17 PM - 002086548916
Do you have a big trip, like your cruise last year, that you are planning?
1/13/2011 8:22:02 PM - 002029331419
It must be from doing some planning....I think we've found Jamies "Cure All!" :0)
1/13/2011 5:14:57 PM - 002086548916
That's the best kind of Fever to have!
1/13/2011 3:11:23 PM - 002025703401
I must be feeling a little better. Feel a touch of VACATION FEVER coming on...........
1/11/2011 9:38:25 PM - 002086548916
Woot Woot!!!! I will pack my shorts and Tank tops!
1/11/2011 8:58:59 PM - 002025703401
Kay..... April in Texas is the best............. July or August, prepare to FRY!!!!
1/11/2011 8:36:34 PM - 002086548916
I am prepared for humid hot down there at that time of year. I remember being there in April 2 years ago and the humidity was just starting...I guess that is why Rob just wanted to stay home and relax? LOL.
1/11/2011 8:28:42 PM - 002067758981
Jean, I'm good. Yep, just like a bunch of women, not satisified with what we have. No snow for us but cold.....wind blowing and supposed to be in low 20's here for next 3 days. I'm ok with what ever he gives us, as long as I don't have to get out in it....hehehe A little sun today at least. Kay, if you visit in July or August, you should be plenty warm, in fact, you'll be hot!!!
1/11/2011 5:38:25 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, how are you feeling today? Colds in winter are the type that last for so long. Chicken soup does help.
Now what is this you say someone threw you under the bus? What happened? I hear Lisa had snow and it hung around. We are expecting 12 inches tonight, but let's hope they are wrong. Take care of yourself. xoxoxoox
1/11/2011 5:29:57 PM - 002086548916
I keep asking Rob if he wants to move back to Houston, he likes it here so he says no. I like it here too, except for the winters. I think we are tentatively looking at being down there in July or August to see his mom.
1/11/2011 5:24:58 PM - 002025703401
Kay should really move to South Texas!
1/11/2011 5:13:33 PM - 002086548916
Except for this Chick-a-dee...It's hot, I want hotter...it's cold, I want hotter! hahaha.
1/11/2011 5:07:00 PM - 002029331419
Hi Linda!! How are you Lady!?!
...what a bunch of Women we are!!.... It's hot, I want to see snow, it's to cold, I want warm!! haha!
We are a weatherman's nightmare! :0)
1/11/2011 1:48:16 PM - 002086548916
Now that sounds fun.....it is somewhere W-A-R-M!!!!
1/11/2011 2:06:29 AM - 002025703401
No snow here....... but I hope to see some in February!!!
We need to plan a Galveston weekend!
1/11/2011 12:12:57 AM - 001024320926
Durango called they asked me to send the snow back, LOL! It's white here, I love it!! Hoping you feel better!!
1/10/2011 5:00:48 PM - 002029331419
Wow! It's cold here today!! New snow on the Sandia's and in Durango!
1/10/2011 3:25:45 PM - 002086548916
Hey! I got some mail too! Thanks Jamie!!! I have the postcard on the fridge so I can think of somewhere warm while it's so cold here! I want to go to Galveston too!
1/10/2011 1:54:47 AM - 002025703401
That's me...... just a big teaser!!! :)
Still taking my meds....... :(
1/9/2011 7:42:29 PM - 002029331419
I got a Galveston card too!!...Cool....I need to go to Galveston on of these days! These are just teasers ..aren't they!!?... Thanks!! :0)
Are you feeling better??
1/8/2011 6:33:29 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thanks so much for the Galveston postcard. LOVED IT!!! Hope you are warm & toasty in Texas. Send us some warmth and sun to NYC. Enjoy your weekend and a big hug to your mom. xoxoxoxo
1/6/2011 8:55:41 PM - 002067758981
I know that Jamie has some ear warmers.....
1/6/2011 3:30:42 PM - 002029331419
I just might be on for some ear muffs though....or ear warmers!! :0)
Did you guys see the pictures on FB from Durango? They are fantastic!!
1/5/2011 10:53:14 PM - 002086548916
I'm counting on them to entertain me...if they entertain everyone else on the train, that will be an extra for everyone else to talk about...haha..."there were these two ladies on the train, and...oh my gosh...they were hysterical!" I can see it now! LOL! I am chuckling to myself.
I was just kidding about the beanies...they give everyone flat hair, and we all know how Jamie feels about her hair being in proper place :D
1/5/2011 10:23:07 PM - 002067758981
Don't lose my girl.....Kay, good idea about GPS!!!!!! Jamie and Lisa could tag team and ya'll would have comics to entertain everyone.
1/5/2011 9:56:25 PM - 002029331419
Beannies are a great idea....but it sure gives me that 'flat hair' look!! eeek!!
Linda....Ooo...I'm glad you liked that!! :0) I always remember you telling Jamie at Fiesta the first year you were here that you 'Have to have my Coffee'!! haha!
I think the only way we'll loose Jamie is if she's caught in that Avalanche that she started from Laughing with Lisa....that's my guess.....
1/5/2011 6:50:35 PM - 002086548916
Oh don't worry, we won't loose Jamie....she has a very distinct laugh that can be heard for miles and miles...I'm pretty sure we will always be able to locate her.
And I will sneak into her room at night and download the GPS on her phone so that we can always tell where she is with a click of my mom's phone. hahaha.
1/5/2011 6:25:29 PM - 002067758981
Jean, just had a cup of wonderful coffee!!! Has great taste, love it, thanks. Don't blend too much with snow and trees, I want to see you guys in the pictures. Besides if Jamie blends in with everything, ya'll may lose her.....or she'll really catch you on video!!! She sneak up on ya!!!! Everyone have a great day, mine will be because I was finally home long enough to get Christmas put up..........I am really baaa humbug when it comes to taking it down and putting everything away. DONE for another year. Kay, I like the idea of beanies.
1/5/2011 4:46:07 PM - 002086548916
Blending....Natural....White with the snow, and green with the trees? That's what I'm thinking!
Maybe we should all wear beanies....aaaahahahahaha!
1/5/2011 4:33:43 PM - 002025703401
Is red a blending color?
1/5/2011 4:26:46 PM - 002086548916
Oh, I think your right....But I don't think I will be able to buy a new coat, just for this trip in a non-blending color.....
1/5/2011 3:21:06 PM - 002029331419
There's my Linda, Lady!! :0) I see you now....I don't like to see the blank picture guy...when I know there are other terrific pictures to be in there!
I'll need to look back.....but isn't there something on the Durango site that says...not to wear bold colors...but something that blends......?
1/5/2011 3:03:10 AM - 002067758981
Wasn't there yesterday.
1/4/2011 11:42:37 PM - 002025703401
Mother...................... I see your picture!
1/4/2011 11:41:09 PM - 002067758981
Jamie Leigh, where is my picture???????????????
1/4/2011 10:48:38 PM - 002086548916
Blue.
1/4/2011 10:44:27 PM - 002025703401
What color is your coat?
1/4/2011 10:35:38 PM - 002086548916
Sometimes the great pictures happen when you least expect it!
Hey, what is the color for Durango? Or are we not going to mess with that since we (I) will be under layers and layers of clothing? Oh yes...I will look like Randy on Christmas story before it is all said and done!
1/4/2011 9:52:16 PM - 002025703401
Header Story - Sitting at a red light on Seawall Blvd and had Kay hand me the camera. SNAP!

1/3/2011 10:07:02 PM - 002086548916
Oh, but those of us that were not there need to see it...I want to feel like I was there with ya'll!!
The clock is at the bottom of the page on your Shutterfly Travel Buddies Site.
1/3/2011 10:06:14 PM - 001024320926
Really, there's no need to make a train weekend from Palestine video. I remember it!
1/3/2011 8:19:26 PM - 002025703401
Working on it tonight....... I hope! :)
1/3/2011 8:06:51 PM - 002029331419

The Fredericks and the Penos had a wonderful time together this year! They wore me out!!!
12/26/2010 3:56:25 AM - 002067758981
Hey Girlies!!! Hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas Day!!! Don't know about you guys but I do not want to do any baking for a while. Just a great time for family and special friends. Hope everyone has a very Happy New Year!!!!!

Rhonda - Why do you think my mother came with me on my first Goober trip? ....... and Jean thought how many serial killers bring their mothers! LOL!!!!
Joanne - I love Christmas traditions. Thanks for telling us the meaning behind the 7 fishes.
For my family, the Peno side always meets on Christmas eve at my Uncle Bubba and Aunt Janet's house. The menu is dips, appetizers, sandwiches, and tons of other stuff. When we were growing up, my grandmother always made shrimp dip. Now that she is gone, Mom is in charge of the dip (my brother and I can both make it too). My Aunt Janet always makes a sombrero dip and Aunt Suzanne makes sausage sandwiches. I make pigs in a blanket and a 7 layer dip. My others cousins are gonna bring some new recipes this year. My cousin Sloane requested that Mom bake an Italian cream cake...... so we will have cake too! Yummmmm!!!!!!
I spend the night at my parents, even though I live 15 minutes away. Santa comes on Christmas morning ya know!!! We open gifts on Christmas morning in our pj's. Then it's clean up and cooking time. On the menu this year is shrimp gumbo yumbo (my recipe), potato salad (mom) and Aunt Janet has a ham. Mom is baking a red velvet cake too. My friend Kay usually comes over to Mom's on Christmas night to check out the leftovers. We fight over leftover shrimp dip!
Merry Christmas to all my Goober Buddies!!!

Merry Christmas Jamie. It was so much fun getting to know you and your lovely mother this past year. What a treat that in my wildest dreams never anticipated. Meeting 15 total strangers and spending four days with them. Now, didn't our mothers teach us not to talk to strangers much less hop on a plane and go meet them. Everyone is still alive and in my opinion much better off having met one another. At least I know that I am. I am so looking forward to spending more time with my dear Goob family and getting to know each of you more and more through the passing years. I am keeping my plans for Feb. even if I have to meet up with all in a wheelchair (just jkg, I at least hope). And watch out next Nov. 4-6. St. Louis will never be the same. Cant' wait to all our future get-togethers.
Love your taste in Christmas music. And your site is always awesome as usual. Love you Queen Goober :)

Jamie, your Christmas page rocks. so many fabulous photos. Enjoy all your parties and have fun. Here is the info on our Christmas Eve fish traditions: Jamie you would fit right in.The Feast of the Seven Fishes (festa dei sette pesci), celebrated on Christmas Eve, also known as The Vigil (La Vigilia), is believed to have originated in Southern Italy and is not a known tradition in many parts of Italy. Today, it is a completely Italian-American feast that typically consists of seven different seafood dishes. Some Italian American families have been known to celebrate with 9, 11 or 13 different seafood dishes. This celebration is a commemoration of the wait, Vigilia di Natale, for the midnight birth of the baby Jesus.The long tradition of eating seafood on Christmas Eve dates from the medieval Roman Catholic tradition of abstinence—in this case, refraining from the consumption of meat or milk products—on Fridays and specific holy days. As no meat or butter could be used, observant Catholics would instead eat fish, typically fried in oil.
There are many hypotheses for what the number "7" relates to, one being the number of Sacraments in the Roman Catholic Church.
Another theory is that seven is a number representing perfection: the traditional Biblical number for divinity is three, and for Earth is four, and the combination of these numbers, seven, represents God on Earth, or Jesus Christ.
The "Feast of the Seven Fishes", a celebration of Christmas Eve with meals of fish and seafood, but there may be seven, eight, or even nine specific fishes that are considered traditional. The most famous dish Southern Italians are known for is Baccalà (salted cod fish). Reasons for celebrating with such a simple fish as Baccalà is attributed to the greatly impoverished regions of Southern Italy. Fried Smelts, calamari, and other types of seafood have been incorporated into the Christmas Eve dinner over the years.

Has everyone recovered from the ornament exchange at work? No injuries? I loved the ones you sent pictures of, especially the snowflake one.
12/20/2010 10:14:34 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Happy Monday. Glad you had a good weekend. My Snickerdoodle cookie photos have just be added to my site. But they look more like Snickerdoodle bars. Nevertheless, they taste good and the whole house had a wonderful smell. Wish your Mom a Very Merry Christmas. I'll try my best to stop by before Christmas Eve. xoxoxo
12/20/2010 4:52:33 PM - 002086548916

Sounds like a big baking weekend. My mom and I might get together to do some baking too!!!
12/15/2010 11:56:23 PM - 001024320926
Cookies this weekend right Jamie!! I can't wait to see the cookies, I think Kay got some contraband sugar colors for the colors.............I'm just saying! Ya'll are going to have some fun.

Have to make your Dad a couple of pecan pies tomorrow to take to deer lease, hope to make candy and I can also chop nuts. Friday I will make sugar cookie dough.
12/14/2010 7:29:00 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, a little birdie told me you had a good time this weekend. What was the "little incident" with Lisa. And no video? Anyway glad you finally got your autumn colors in Texas. Big hugs to you & your Mom. xoxoxox
12/14/2010 3:37:04 PM - 002029331419
I'll wrap for ya!! I did that all Saturday morning...and had fun! Saturday when the kids were over, Hannah helped Steve un wrap his Birthday gifts....oh...she's going to be a hoot this year! :0) I made my first ever Bow...with wire and ribbon! It turned out pretty good...I want to try and make another on!
I told Steve....we are going to do a Christmas Train ride...somewhere...sometime...but we are going!! haha!
12/14/2010 12:44:26 PM - 002025703401
WOW Debbie! I looked Warm Beach up..... love the Christmas light parks!!! Looking for another close one for us next year already. :)
Big cookie bake and crab feast on the schedule this weekend. I have new RED and GREEN sugar, so Kay and Gina don't need to bring any for the cookies!!! Who wants to come over and wrap gifts? Maybe work on my Christmas cards? Chop nuts? I have a pile waiting..........
12/13/2010 9:56:21 PM - 002088910291
Jamie, I loved your Christmas page with the lights! I also loved all the shooting goobs photos, they were great! I am so glad to be back home, I stayed the week with mom and dad after her surgery, since dad can't take care of her in his condition! But it was wonderful having the quality time with them also! I loved taking care of her and helping dad! But I did miss my hubby, doggies, and home too! I had a few shutterfly withdrawals at first! They do not have a computer! I sure have a lot of catching up to do! Was finally able to finish my Christmas lights page on Saturday night! We went to WarmBeachLights.com! It is about an hour from home! This is the first year I even heard of it! It has one million lights, and is all done by volunteers! We took our grandson, and were blown away! So we took my mom the night before her surgery to take her mind off of things, and she was like a kid! We both had to buy a homemade hat in the Christmas store! It was so cold we really had to bundle up with scarves and mittens, and still had to stop at the fire pits to warm ourselves! It was a clear night, and it was like a winter wonderland! It is one of the top 10 Christmas destinations in the U.S., and was right under out noses all this time! It will certainly be on our list each year for now on! They even have a lode to stay over night in! But I suppose you have to get early reservations for it! We live so close there is no need for that, but the second day I saw a lot of things I couldn't even take in the first time! I hope you are enjoying the holidays! Will catch you later! deb xoxox
12/13/2010 9:31:09 PM - 001024320926
Love all the pictures Jamie!!!
12/13/2010 9:30:58 PM - 001024320926
ROTFLOL!!!! She didn't tell Pappy either!! Kyleigh knows who her hook up is!!
12/13/2010 9:16:09 PM - 002029331419
Yay!! Another successful adventure! :0)
12/13/2010 8:39:10 PM - 002025703401
And 'I won't tell Pappy..........' hehehehehehehehehehe
12/13/2010 8:26:37 PM - 002067758981
When a three year old yells from the back seat at the top of her lungs, 'It's Ok, Gigi, it was fun'.........hummmmm. Like the new header!!!
12/13/2010 4:30:14 PM - 002086548916
Love the new header!!! So glad you had a great weekend!
12/13/2010 3:38:06 PM - 002025703401

I'm tired this morning!
12/13/2010 1:30:10 PM - 001024320926
Jamie and Linda, we had a blast on Saturday!! It was so much fun to see all the awesome fall color and ride the train!! Thanks for being so entertaining in the truck while waiting to get into the light park! I was perfectly calm, nothing going on my side of the truck, nope not a thing!!
12/10/2010 4:49:21 PM - 002029331419

They have aged a couple of years, Jean!!! Glad to hear you are feeling better.
Kay, no one whines about the ODD cookies but Jamie, the rest of us just laugh at her!!!
12/9/2010 9:34:36 PM - 002029331419
Really 10 year olds....I heard last year it was more like 8 year olds.....LOOOOOL!!!
12/9/2010 8:56:32 PM - 002025703401
Can't wait for the recipe from Joanne!!!!!
I must confess...... we do act like 10 year olds!
12/9/2010 8:11:16 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, thanks for coming by to say hello. How are you doing? We are freezing to the bone up here. No snow here and I hope it stays away. Glad you like my headers they were from last year. Hopefully I'll be snapping away soon. I haven't used in camera in about 1 month. Very sad about that. This weekend I'll be visiting my mom and get the recipe for you Southern Italian Sunday Sauce & Meatballs. How is your family doing? Say hi and a big hug for your mom. I'll stop by again very soon.
12/9/2010 4:22:57 PM - 002086548916
Can you record their whining about the odd cookies? That could be fun to watch ;)
12/9/2010 4:08:31 PM - 002067758981
Oh no, you two from New Mexico, you are not here to hear three ( Jamie, Kay & Gina ) grown women act like 10 year olds.....I will have to limit the number of ODD cookies that are made in this kitchen!!! hehehe
12/9/2010 3:41:42 PM - 002029331419
.....it's the most wonderful time of the year.................. John Deer Reindeer Cookies... PERFECT!!
12/9/2010 1:35:00 PM - 001024320926

12/8/2010 5:49:36 PM - 002086548916
Green and Yellow Reindeer, just like a John Deer Tractor....
Kay, you are so funny!
12/8/2010 4:18:43 PM - 002071401838
hmmmmm....I'll have to think about that.
12/8/2010 3:09:46 PM - 002025703401
Grrrr......... :)
I got a new reindeer cookie cutter yesterday!!! What color do we make the reindeer?
12/8/2010 2:29:10 PM - 002071401838

12/7/2010 8:29:53 PM - 002086548916
well the Queen can't freak out...not before Christmas anyway.
12/7/2010 8:28:31 PM - 002025703401
It freaks me out!!! :)
12/7/2010 8:08:57 PM - 002086548916
Oh, so blue and white are wrong colors for Christmas cookies?
12/7/2010 8:04:36 PM - 002025703401
Anything that is NOT red or green! :)
12/7/2010 8:01:32 PM - 002086548916
What are the wrong colors???
12/7/2010 5:49:58 PM - 002025703401
Cookie baking and crab feast is Dec 18th. Should be crazy, I've gotta hide all the WRONG cookie colors!
12/7/2010 4:43:36 PM - 001024320926
Supposed to be in the 60's Saturday, probably 50, 40 after dark :):) I can't wait to be on that train!! Singing!! I'm going to sing all the way there so Kyleigh will be raring to go!!

Train this weekend, woohoo!!!
12/6/2010 10:14:41 PM - 002025703401
Thinking that I should take all 3 of my cameras on the train ride.
The big debate is who's gonna drive my vehicle in the Christmas lights park........ LINDA?!?!?!? {insert look of horror}
(PS. I am so deadmeat! Love Ya Momma!!!)
Jean - Did ya know that I can't play a sax like Kenny G? :)

Mom & I can't wait for a recipe Joanne!!!
12/2/2010 7:30:58 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Glad you liked my new snowman header, that was from last year. Check you e-mail I sent you the Times Square photo. 70°F can you send the warmth my way. Today is sunny but only in the 30's. And that is way too cold for me. I'm not happy unless it is at least 65F.
Lisa wants to visit NYC, and if she does I think she will like it here. Anyway, next time I see my mom I will ask her to write down the meatball and sauce recipes and I'll share with you. Say HI to your mom. xoxoxoxo
12/2/2010 1:25:44 PM - 001024320926
What do you mean SUPPOSED to meet up with Lisa!!! I have every intention of being there, with bells on!! I'm looking forward to it. Kyleigh will have a wonderful time, I'll be in picture heaven :) Plus I get to see ya'll!! I took all my antibiotics and I'm still on Mucinex at night to help get rid of the congestion. I am feeling better everyday! The best part is the meet up will be in cooler weather, woohoo!!!
LOL!!!! I wrote crab wrong in that post, LOL!! That's hilarious!!!
12/1/2010 3:48:06 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Greetings for a soaked and windy NYC. You're not the only one turning on your heater. It is down right dreary here. Yep we had meatball, and sauce, mushrooms and turkey breast. A few lefts overs that we took home. I will have my mom jot down the recipe for her meatballs and e-mail it to you.
Looking forward to your photos when you meet up with Lisa & Kyleigh. I sure hope Lisa will be all well by then. No much new on my end. I have a dental cleaning this afternoon so I'll try to check back later, stay warm and hope all is well.
12/1/2010 3:16:54 PM - 002025703401
You better go fast because the Christmas shelves here at Hobby Lobby were already half empty!
12/1/2010 3:11:47 PM - 002086548916
Thank you!!!! Love the Christmas!!! Its the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!!! and Rob said I could go to Hobby Lobby and get some new decorations for the apartment :) That made me so happy!!!
12/1/2010 12:38:16 AM - 002025703401
And why do you think I picked that one????
12/1/2010 12:13:33 AM - 001024320926
look at that crab in the header, cute, cute!!! So it was Hallmark for lunch? I stayed in, ate Velveeta shells, yummo!!
11/30/2010 9:08:30 PM - 002025703401

11/30/2010 4:57:29 PM - 002086548916
You sure do have a way to push it out...LOL!
11/30/2010 4:49:42 PM - 002025703401
Tomorrow is December 1............. and the start of Christmas season! :)
11/30/2010 4:48:22 PM - 002086548916
Are you going to put a Christmas theme on your website...it is after Thanksgiving, you know....You can get in the spirit any time now :)
11/29/2010 9:39:28 PM - 002025703401
The Festival of Lights had a few too many non-Christmas lights for me, but for $4.95 we had fun! Non-Christmas as in zoo animals and flowers. Had a nice time strolling the Strand before hand too!

Kay, she's been working on the cruise site.........I talk to her every day but have not seen her in a week!!! Course I was at beach house most of those days, had to lure her down tonight with gumbo......hehehehe
11/13/2010 6:17:21 PM - 002086548916
Yes Jamie, you have been quiet this week! Where have you been?
11/13/2010 5:47:28 PM - 002067758981
Tell gals hello for me, Jamie. Ask Kay if she wants to come for supper tomorrow night. Just chicken and turkey gumbo. Used one of the butternut squash (from garden) for a pie.......used the squash instead of pumpkin and eagle brand milk. Looks good!!!
11/13/2010 3:08:11 PM - 002025703401
Headed into Beaumont, work and a couple of errands. Meeting Kay, Gina, and others for college football at 4. Chicken gumbo at Mom's tomorrow. Forecast for cooler temps and lots of rain down here. Keep your fingers crossed that the game doesn't get rained out! Looking for my Lamar University red tshirt...... GO BIG RED!!! :)
11/13/2010 2:41:34 PM - 001024320926
Jamie, it's cold here today!! Woohoo!! I went to the car for something and it was cold, I loved it!!!! The wedding was cancelled last night, so I got to spend the afternoon with Kyleigh :) She was a smiley little thing yesterday and then she woke up that way this morning too :)
What's the plan this weekend? Work? Football game? Dinner at Linda's? Gonna see Gina and Kay this weekend?
11/12/2010 4:03:38 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, my dear how are you. I like your mom love the headers and makes me want to cruise again. Can you imagine being a passenger on the Carnivale cruise and having no electric, rest room and food. HORROR. Some people were saying they will Never cruise again. I just hope it never happens to me.
Any plans for this weekend? Maybe your leaves will change soon and you can snap some photos. Say hi to your Mom and I'll be by to explore a bit longer. I haven't been by to your site because my brother hasn't been feeling well and I have been helping my mom out.with chores (that he usually helps out with and to just straighten up my house before my guests came by to visit.) My friend Francesca came to say goodbye she leaves for Italy next week. So I hope I won't wait 18 years to see her again. . Have a great weekend.
11/12/2010 3:26:25 PM - 002025703401
I must be feeling better, I'm thinking about trip planning again!!!! Almost ready for a roadtrip............
11/12/2010 1:18:07 AM - 002067758981
Did I tell you that I love the header here?
11/12/2010 1:17:28 AM - 002067758981
Don't forget it.
11/11/2010 11:17:30 PM - 002025703401

Who wants to cruise now?
11/9/2010 6:50:15 PM - 002086548916
Did you hear that a Carnival ship caught fire off the coast in Mexico? Glad that didn't happen to you!
11/9/2010 11:32:16 AM - 002025703401

I'm feeling better than yesterday, but still very tired! Thanks for asking!
11/3/2010 11:28:07 PM - 002067758981
Kay, I think you might be right!!!
11/3/2010 4:32:46 PM - 002086548916
LOL! Your brain is waiting for the knock from room service!!
11/3/2010 3:05:06 PM - 002025703401
Overslept again this morning. My brain is thinking the alarm is part of my dreams................. (I know, I'm a GOOBER)
11/2/2010 6:05:20 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Still rocking and feeling the motion of the ocean? It seems with all the photos you took you'll have to edit and make a new share site like your Alaska one you stated in a earlier post. Good idea. WOW you took close to 6,000 photos. You'll be bringing back great memories are you sort through your pictures. How is your Mom doing? Anyway looking forward to your new site. Enjoy your day Queen Goober.
11/2/2010 4:00:38 PM - 002025703401
With that many pictures, I've decide to do a separate site for my cruise, just like I did for our Alaska trip. :)
11/2/2010 3:03:48 PM - 002086548916
No wonder your pictures aren't up yet.....LOL....
11/2/2010 4:24:17 AM - 002025703401

11/1/2010 3:49:22 PM - 001076975951
Welcome Home Jamie, I understand completely about the movement and rocking feeling even thought you are back on solid ground. Can you still keep the patch on for a few extra days? I'll keep an eye out for your package. Thanks. And by the way I did go to visit my friend in Penn and have some pictures posted on my travel site. I am sure you & your mom are glad to be home. Rest up and start planning your next getaway. I have been enjoying your journal entries and photos. Until we meet again. xoxoxo

J
amie, First I want to thank you for viewing Gianna's wedding book. Then a big thank you for the postcard, I just received it. Loved how everyone sign it. Thank your mom too for me.
I see your next cruise is a week away. This is exciting and before you know we too will meet up. Do I need to preorder for the hop on hop off tour. I am looking forward to meeting you & your mom.Jamie, I love your home page header...it is a blast. As far as Lisa's journal I have yet to read it. And Joey being a wild woman, LOL you have to watch out for the quite mild mannered ones. The entire get together must have been a blast.
And next year as Jean and Rhonda return from their cruise I will be in Barcelona setting sail for my cruise. Maybe we can meet for a quickie. ;-)
Here there is very few leaves that are turning the pretty colors of autumn. Today is in the 70's and the entire weekend is supposed to be warm and sunny. I think by the time you come to NYC it will be more orange, yellow and red. And your New England pictures will be so beautiful. Can't wait to see them. Have a great weekend and always happy to see when you have come by to say Hello. Take care.
10/9/2010 4:13:43 PM - 000093706714
P.S. Let me know how you enjoy the upcoming cruise........Quebec is on Rene's list!
10/9/2010 4:12:11 PM - 000093706714
Jamie - I LOVE all the Balloon Festival pics! Sooooooooooooooo wishing I could have gone with you all. I am definitely planning to join you guys on another journey! Promise! Have fun on your upcoming cruise! (I know YOU will!) Big hugs......Cheri

How exciting that you are going on a cruise in 6 days! I will be going in like 8 weeks on an Eastern Caribbean cruise. You must be so exhausted from the NM trip and now you will be off for another adventure! Have a safe trip! I can't wait to hear all about it! :)
10/9/2010 6:36:08 AM - 002020640084
Jamie,
I love your NM page and how you did group shot headers and individual head shot headers! I couldn't find a spot to comment on that NM page but commented on tons of photos!

Kay, you don't know Jamie as well as you think.........she makes other people lists but does not get her own list done on time. lol
9/28/2010 2:14:18 PM - 002086548916
Jamie, that's a hoot! At least you have it planned to get done everything you should have got done. Did you get clothes done last night?

Soo the secret craftig project is complete?! No hints? How about taking pictures of the crafting supplies?
9/15/2010 3:05:35 PM - 002025703401
Someone was gone last week when my secret craft project was discussed........
9/15/2010 1:18:42 PM - 002086548916
Jamie has another secret and she is not spilling the beans? Whaaaa???? I wanna know too! When do we get to find out what it is or what it is in relation to?
9/15/2010 12:02:07 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thank you for your kind words and being so thoughtful. I am looking forward to our meeting next month. I have missed you and all my Shutterfly family.

9/15/2010 2:35:42 AM - 002025703401

9/15/2010 2:20:18 AM - 002029331419
It's in a question!! That would pretty much mean I would like to know. But I will wait...
9/15/2010 1:45:54 AM - 002025703401

9/9/2010 8:38:16 PM - 002067758981
Joey, just being the goobers that they are...Jean knows how to wind her up.
9/9/2010 8:35:22 PM - 000074469281
The header is gorgeous - I am still lost as to what Jean did!!
9/9/2010 8:24:36 PM - 002025703401

Maybe I should check my blood pressure............
9/9/2010 8:19:55 PM - 002029331419
It just seemed like Jamie needed something to get her fired up about, so I thought this would help!
We know she's awake now!
9/9/2010 8:19:05 PM - 002025703401
Or if Lisa set me up to get in trouble!!!
9/9/2010 8:18:05 PM - 002067758981
Jean, good job!!! All it takes is a JAMIE LEIGH!!!!
9/9/2010 8:18:01 PM - 002029331419
Why'd you text Lisa???? Just in case she'd remember something that you'd forgot???
9/9/2010 8:14:35 PM - 002025703401

9/9/2010 7:52:51 PM - 002029331419

But I bet you sure started thinking what did you do that was getting you in trouble this week!
Gosh...there, I feel so much better..... I think I'm getting my groove back on.... hehe...
Now I know if I have an emergency...it takes you 3 min to get back to me.

Jamie, Thanks for always taking a few minutes to come by and leave me a message. Yes my dear Jamie, I am going to see a Broadway musical this Sunday. I think the last show I saw was CHICAGO and that was several years back. I am so excited. Jamie, next time you come to NYC it will be longer and we will plan to see a play on Broadway. That will be so much fun!!!! God willing it will happen. I love musicals too. I'll let you know next week all about my day out with my girls. Have a wonderful day. I'll e-mail soon Enjoy your weekend too. xoxoxoxox

Hey! I love your new header!!
I had to come over and see what's new! I'm just going to do a few sites at a time and then I'll feel like I've made my rounds!
My Aunt is in Harker Heights....they really got hit hard with the rain...the Red Cross and FEMA is there.
We've had 2 really good showers today...and my allergies are really getting me today!
9/8/2010 4:38:56 PM - 002067758981
Hope you had a great day yesterday, Joanne. please don't tell Jamie too often that she's right!!!!
9/7/2010 10:29:28 PM - 002025703401
Happy Birthday Joanne!!!
(When is Lisa gonna learn that Jamie is always right?)
9/7/2010 7:15:12 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, I LOVE the home page header. Fabulous. Hope you had a relaxing weekend. I did want to say thanks for the b'day wishes. I appreciate you coming by and say hi. Your thoughtful is appreciated. No plans for today but this weekend we will most likely go out to dinner. Actually Jamie you are right Sept 7 (today is my birthday)
God willing I shall see you in a few weeks. October 26 is the day Princess is in NYC, right? Can't wait. I'll catch you later in the week I do want to see what's new on your site. Enjoy your day.
9/7/2010 3:34:09 PM - 001024320926
Loving the new header!! Very pretty :) I'm sure a product of the awesome weekend at the beach. You were right about Joanne's birthday, only it was yesterday!!!!!!!

Ho, Hum........ Back to work tomorrow!
9/6/2010 8:57:45 PM - 002067758981
Hi girlies, I'm home!!! Tropical strom ran us back to farm......nothing big but high tides and a lot of rain to come. Don't like the idea of getting stranded down there. Water was going over the highway and weather was not all that bad yet. Home for a day or two at least, then we'll go back some time next week. Best fish catching time in next month or so....
9/2/2010 4:20:54 PM - 002086548916
I vote for the shirt....and just tell me the color in case I need to buy one ahead of time.
And just wanted to say, while I am making my rounds, thank you for allowing me to share my wedding planning journey with you! it has been fun sharing all the fun and excitement with you!!! I can't wait to show you pictures and share stories when you come in October! That is going to be a fun time hanging out with you again :0) Good times, in deed!
8/31/2010 8:14:52 PM - 002029331419
The Awaqua is good!
It doesn't matter to me on the color of the T-shirt...I have them in lots of colors!
But...you don't want someone buying a hat...that won't wear it, I guess is what I was getting at.
8/31/2010 7:46:38 PM - 001076975951
J
amie, Glad you read the brochures. I hope some attractions caught your eye.
Do you think I should send some to Lisa. It may spark her interest. I'll keep my eye out for more next time I go into the city. Most likely in a few weeks.
8/31/2010 5:10:51 PM - 001076975951
Hi there Jamie, hope you are well and not too hot down in Texas. I'm so glad you got my little package. I hope it helps if not for this trip maybe sometime in the future. :-) I too am looking forward to meeting you and your Mom. and you are so sweet. Glad you liked the new header those were flowers Victoria's bosses gave her for her b'day last week. You know me and flowers, just love nature pictures.
Well we are having a heat wave once again 95°F and it may climb in the afternoon hours. I hope earl stays away. Can you imagine being a cruise right now with the rough seas. Not a pretty picture.
Any plans for labor day? Still no plans on my end. We'll play it be ear and see what happens with Earl. Have a great day Jamie, sending all my best wishes xoxoxoxo
8/31/2010 2:17:53 PM - 002025703401

Jamie a.k.a. Texas Jam, I'd like to share a well known quote with you...
“The world is a book, and those who do not travel, read only a page.”
-- St. Augustine
8/24/2010 4:29:53 PM - 002086548916
Hey QG!!!! Love that header with the bee...that is a great picture! Way to go!
Yes, enjoying the new apartment. Its so big and quiet!! Still getting used to road noise, but everything else is quiet!
Yes, we are cruising for the honeymoon. I need to get the suite cases from my mom and then I will start packing next week. I have been making a list so I dont forget anything though.
Are you packed for the Balloons yet?
8/24/2010 4:02:54 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, I forgot to tell you I love the Home Page Header. It is beautiful!!!
8/24/2010 3:54:44 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Jamie. Hope you are well and it has cooled off a bit in Texas. We are all gloomy and raining here in the Big Apple. Washington State. OMG that sounds wonderful. I hope to go there one day. As for Alaska that calls out to me too. You are one who knows how to live. I love all the adventures you plan and go forth and experience.I am sure you Goobers will find somewhere to go and have a great time. Keep on traveling and always remember that saying. “Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quiestest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey.” – Pat Conroy“Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind.” – Seneca Thanks again for stopping by Jamie.
8/24/2010 3:25:55 PM - 002025703401

8/23/2010 9:09:22 PM - 002067758981
Froze last of the peas today, they are done!! Joe pulled them up and will let the ground rest until its time and cool enough to plant fall garden. We'll be headed to beach house sometime this week, more than ready for a breeze. Love the new header and look at that clock......NM time will be here before you know it and then the cruise.....woooo hoooo!!!
8/23/2010 4:23:39 PM - 001024320926

I was wondering how Kay was doing!? ... In a week...she is going to be feeling so much better!
One more busy week at work...and then next week....and then, the Big Day!
You know I won't be around to much next week...but I'll try and send highlights to you! :0)
One more hot day today...and then in the 80's the rest of the week...Yeah!!
Ok..back to work!
8/23/2010 3:03:20 PM - 002025703401
Hot, Hot, Hot....... something new! :(
Busy weekend with Kay in the hospital. She had her gall bladder taken out on Saturday and released yesterday. Just called her and she is feeling much better today.
8/19/2010 8:28:13 PM - 002067758981
Come on down Miss Kay, see if you like the heat, humidity and the rain all in the same day......lol
8/19/2010 8:02:12 PM - 002086548916
Mom, you know how it is...those south Texas gals can't ever make up their mind....they want rain then when it comes they want it to go away....
8/19/2010 2:07:10 PM - 002029331419
....but weren't you guys asking for rain .....just last week? hehe!!
I know that it is what helps you with your hot temps down there these days!
Farm life when all of that produce starts coming in...........whewww... I remember that work!!
Got my friends book of her daughters wedding all done. I'll look at it a few more times...see if I need to change anything...and then order it. Michael and Leslie are coming to Kay's wedding, so it'd be nice for Kathy to have it to show them. We got to make final arrangements for the reception tonight with the hotel. Wow....we really are closing in on the last to do things!
Have a great day!
8/18/2010 11:46:25 PM - 002067758981

Maybe I can make it til then, if I get a break by going to beach house. Needs to quit raining everyday or I'll have a pouting man inside because he will not be able to go fishing!! lol See you Goobers soon!!!
8/18/2010 11:09:16 PM - 001024320926

8/18/2010 12:26:52 AM - 002067758981
Lisa, that was awesome!!!!! Jean, if Estes Park is calling her name, that means I may get to go back there!!! Love to see the mountains.......yes, Jean, balloons are calling my name.
8/17/2010 8:27:41 PM - 002029331419
Lisa!!!!!! That's great!! Did you just come up with that...or has it been in the making for a few years now?

8/17/2010 2:31:22 AM - 002025703401
LOL!!!!!
8/17/2010 2:27:48 AM - 001024320926
I'm sitting here in my blue suede shoes thinking about my hound dog, wondering if people really do the jail house rock while in jail, hoping that I was always on his mind because we can't go on together with suspicious minds after all it's not like I want to live in the ghetto, I mean wise men say only fools fall in love, that said I know I wouldn't mind if someone loved me tender the rest of my life. I've always loved my visits to Viva Las Vegas but lately I'd love to go to Blue Hawaii and have a Clambake with my real dad :) In the end I want people to say that I did it my way....
8/16/2010 11:29:01 PM - 002067758981
Me too, Lisa!!!!
8/16/2010 7:30:24 PM - 001024320926
Hey Goob, you working hard today? I'm beating back a little headache, it would be from being lazy, need to get up and get the blood circulating ;)

8/13/2010 2:11:09 PM - 002067758981
Kay, if I know my daughter, she'll tell you before the day is up. AND SHE DID!!!!!! Cannot keep a secret to save herself. lol

I love your new header. But then again I always find some nice surprises here. Have you been to Cruise Critic lately. I need to return and catch up there.
Anyway Jamie, enjoy your Sunday and keep cool.
7/31/2010 7:25:45 PM - 002067758981
Don't count on it being cooler here unless you're inside!!! Ready for fall.......long time to go.
7/31/2010 11:30:50 AM - 002025703401
Breakfast with Lisa this morning, the peach orchard, and then I'm hitting the road south to home. Hope it's cooler down on the coast!!!
7/30/2010 7:09:20 PM - 002067758981

7/29/2010 2:37:54 AM - 002025703401
Jean..... Arrange for the Aussie Jamie to meet us at Balloon Fiesta. :)
7/28/2010 11:35:25 PM - 001024320926
A redheaded Aussie speaking Jamie, hmmmmmm, I'd love to hear her talk!! Jamie is is twice the twangy as me, I'm just saying.....

7/28/2010 2:21:16 PM - 002029331419

Ummm Peaches!! Peach cobbler....ummmm! I might have to take up some stuff in the camper and make some hot 'peach something'....for Steve. He'd think he was in heaven ya know......
7/28/2010 2:00:00 AM - 002025703401
An Australian Jamie Frederick........ is that even possible?
Goober with peaches? Wonder who? ;)
7/27/2010 7:12:11 PM - 002067758981
No beach this week-end.....been instructed that I should be home Saturday because some goober is going to bring peaches.........sounds like peach cobbler may be happening at our place Sunday!!! Busy with peas, okra, peppers and squash still. Joe may go to west Texas to help friend cut hay Friday, will be gone for a few days........me and the girls will do just what we want to do while he is gone( we do that anyway ) hehehehe
7/27/2010 6:06:46 PM - 002029331419
Oh!!! And it finally came to me this week...........I work with an Australian Jamie Frederick!! Simmone Shipley over at Intel....is sooo much like you! I think she's an Australian Goober!!.... She's a red head though!! She really was a big help over a business glitch that we were having! But, she's a sweeeet lady, Funny Too.... we get along great!!! ....I love her accent....it's not Texan, but Aussie! haha... I think I've even seen her in a Pank shirt! LOL!
7/27/2010 3:44:13 PM - 002029331419
Jamie - I know summer time is supposed to be when everyone is out having a grand time, doing lots of stuff...but when it's so hot and muggy you can hardly breath...ya better be with people that you can have a good time with...because the heat can suck the life right out of you! And the DQ truck! How cool is that! haha
Hope your training is going well...and I know your looking forward to the weekend!
Linda...are ya headed to the beach this weekend? We're going to the mountains!! woo hoo!
7/27/2010 2:52:17 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Jamie, How are things going? So I see you had a blast with Lisa this weekend. I can just imagine you 2 Texas Gals having lots of laughs. Looking forward to viewing the photos. Love your home page banner. Just beautiful. I see you have 66 days till your N.M. Festival. You are the true World Travel Goddess, and I love the sense of adventure you have. Stephanie is on her way home from her vacation today. 10 days in California. She had a blast. Hope to share some pics and stories later in the week. Have a wonderful week, and stay cool. I know Texas is a oven. Be well and regards from The Big Apple.
7/27/2010 2:56:15 AM - 002025703401
You're welcome Kay!
I had a great time with Lisa over the weekend and we hope to meet up again this coming weekend on Saturday morning before I head home. Lisa owes me breakfast! ;)
7/27/2010 1:25:36 AM - 001024320926
Hi there Goob!! I so wish I were in Fort Worth with you, we could walk arounf taking pictures of the downtown lights and signs :) I had so much fun this weekend. I'll be sending you pictures tomorrow. I finally got them uploaded but now I'm site hopping. I text a couple of the pictures to Linda :)
Linda, Lumpy was one of Wally's friends off of Leave it to Beaver :)
7/26/2010 2:52:51 PM - 002029331419
Good Morning!...so your working up in the Big City this week, eh? I do hope it goes well!

Have a great week.........I'll be seeing ya around!
7/26/2010 1:20:10 PM - 002086548916
Jamie!!! Thanks so much for the package! It was so fun opening up your box, and it means so much that you would have it shipped to Aunt Rhonda's so it would be there waiting for me! You are awesome!
7/23/2010 2:47:23 PM - 002067758981
I know, Lisa, she tries to shift the blame to someone else, anyone else but herself. Who's Lumpy? I can see now that I am going to have my hands full with the 'Goober' nation. lol
7/23/2010 2:08:51 PM - 001024320926
Linda I haven't done anything! Here I am sitting minding my own business and Jamie throws me under the cane!! If I'm Eddie then Jamie is Lumpy!
7/23/2010 3:10:37 AM - 002067758981
Good, Barbara, come on in. I don't want to be the only confused one. Didn't think I was up to heat in Galveston, but next time I'm going to try to make it.
7/23/2010 2:29:13 AM - 001023411097

You know Walley will be with us, so I know that I could get the help I need.
7/22/2010 4:42:54 PM - 002067758981
Think I may need it........not just to get around!!!!!! (For protection). Jamie, are you a tattle tale? What has Lisa done?
7/22/2010 11:08:48 AM - 002025703401
Lisa asked if you are gonna bring your cane. ;O)

7/15/2010 3:25:17 AM - 002035648808
Hi Jamie. I am watching airline tickets. I found some from Continental on Cheap tickets for 251 for a round trip ticket. Is this a good price? SW was a little higher. Let me know. I love you page by the way. Very nice. Can't wait to meet Goober Nation and become a certified Goober myself, lol!
7/14/2010 3:16:01 PM - 000039334931

Weather is drying up so I'm headed to the beach for a little fishing with dad this weekend.
Lisa..... don't be mean!!!
7/9/2010 12:06:05 AM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, still raining? Are your folks stuck out at the beach house? Oh and I needed to let you know that I got mail...............................days before you!!!! LOL!!

7/7/2010 2:54:25 PM - 002025703401
It's raining cats & dogs today....... so NO, I didn't walk.
The folks are still at the beach. Waiting on some guy to come give them a bid on a new driveway. Ours is a mess after Hurricane Ike. Painting, driveway repairs, and a new sink for downstairs are our projects this year.
Dad and our neighbor, Gilbert had fun fishing yesterday. Caught a dozen redfish and half-dozen drum..... but all were about an inch too short to keep.
7/7/2010 12:49:08 PM - 001024320926
So did you walk today? Are the folks still at the beach house? I have a little something I am making your mom :) What's the weather doing?
I am going to get the tags on my car tis morning, they expired in May, so I guess it's time!!
7/6/2010 9:15:04 PM - 002059624475
Nice Header!! You got good color in this shot!! I'm working on our past weekend for the next few days. I'll try to get something posted. I did a book of Lilly going to the Kids Farm, when I was in Ft. Collins. Check it out if you get time.
7/6/2010 4:10:55 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Jamie, Love the header!!!
I am glad to hear you are feeling a bit better. Poison Ivy! YUCK. Yes if you do yard work protect your skin. Hope you had a wonderful July 4th weekend. How was the beach house? Had fun and how was the weather in your area? We are having a HEAT WAVE!! It was 99°F yesterday and today we may reach 100°F. Now that is even way too hot for me. The Queen is going to melt, LOL QE 2 is in town to speak at the U.N. and I don't know it the British are use to this type of weather.
Anyway, my holiday was low key did not do or go anywhere. Joe went to the beach with his brother and niece on Saturday.. Stephanie & Victoria met some friends to go see the Twilight movie. Then, Joe worked on July 4th afterall hospitals never close. I just went down to the end of the island to walk around and only took a handful of photos. Made them as headers.
Yes my daughter Stephanie is going to visit a friend who is now living in LA and then they we drive down to San Diego. She leaves next Friday July 16. This is her first time there and I know she is looking forward to her vacation. Speaking of vacation I love all you countdown clocks. Anyway have a great week and take care of your self. I will visit again later int he week to see what's new.
7/6/2010 3:19:40 AM - 001023411097
WOW, love the header and of course all your great pics. You are getting too good at this lady. We had a great forth, but so tired. Had my boys and kids for three days. I am at Hilton hotel in Sugarland, for mom to see the heart dr. tomorrow. Love you guys. bj
7/6/2010 3:00:13 AM - 002029331419
Jamie! Hey Girl! Well...we survived another family reunion....and it was Great!! Steve and I went to the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame in Colo springs! We had a great time! Then we took 2 cars, Steve - Me- Rhonda & Kay in one and Craig-Vickie-Nicholi & Alec in another........and headed for Pikes Peak! I don't ever remember being up there! ha!!...Had a great time ... and it was 14,110 feet up! And boy do we have a great story from up there! ...I'll write about it this week!! Oh my Gosh! Fast weekend....hope you had a good weekend!
7/4/2010 5:23:05 AM - 002035648808
Happy 4th of July Jamie. I hope you all had wonderful plans for the week-end. We are headed to chuch camp tomorrow for a week. I saw where you got your tickets. Should I be looking to order some soon? Let me know so I don't miss out :) Thanks and have a wonderful week :)

Woohoo!! awesome header!! That's beautiful!!
7/2/2010 11:25:12 AM - 002025703401
If it isn't one thing, it's another. Now, the highway to our beach house is closed until sometime Saturday.
Waiting..............................
PS. Still raining this morning too. :(
7/1/2010 4:10:39 PM - 002025703401
Dad is really not sure about when the babies will come...... just have to wait...... and wait............... :)
Don't worry..... NO yardwork for Jamie!!!! I only take pictures now!
Rain chances are going down for the weekend, so we are back to making beach plans. :)
7/1/2010 3:16:42 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie!! Before time gets awaya and I get distracted with our trip..I wanted to wish you guys a great 4th...
Stay out of your yard...no more rashes.
Get your camera out...you need a fix.
Have some fun...relax.
And............................WHAT about those Baby Donkey's?!?! Are you sure those Momma's were going to have babies?...or were they just full of Hay!?!?
7/1/2010 2:00:57 PM - 002059624475
QG, I Made The Sfly Traveling Buddies Site. I feel like I have "arrived"!! I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy! Can't wait for October - woop woop
7/1/2010 1:53:47 PM - 002059624475
Jamie, I uploaded my first set of pictures that I took with Otto last weekend - he's a Ti1. Perfect for me since I'm still learning. The cool thing is the lenses I had from our very old 35mm fit Otto!! What a savings, I have a telefoto lense and the one that came with the first camera. They all have different "ranges" so I feel like I hit a homerun!! Stay dry and I hope that weather doesn't do major damage where you are!!
7/1/2010 1:51:01 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, How are you feeling? I read on Lisa's site that you were not feeling well. :-( I hope you are better. I want to wish you a safe & Happy July 4th. Be safe and have fun, whatever your plans. Sending my best wishes to you and I hope Alex doesn't hit your area. I'll catch you next week, I need to explore and see what's new here.
7/1/2010 1:12:12 PM - 002086548916
Hey Jamie, just wanted to stop by and wish you a very Happy Fourth of July!!! Did the beach house survive Alex? What a nasty storm he was!!! I am sure you are feeling the wind, rain, and all the effects of a storm like that. Have a great weekend, and take care.
6/30/2010 10:46:22 PM - 002029331419
Rain = No Fireworks... :(
We can't leave on Friday until Kay gets off work...she's driving up with us! But this will mean we're in the heat of the day...and hitting Colorado Springs at rush hour....yuck! Well...I do have to say that I got a good hotel deal on Priceline for our stay! yippee!...It's right by the Air Force Academy.... don't worry...if it's really good...I'll take pictures! haha
6/30/2010 7:00:39 PM - 001024320926
It's in the 80's here today. Feels like a winter cold front compared to last week. The 100 degree stuff was about to wear me out, my car too. So glad ya'll didn't go to the beach house this weekend, that wouldn't have been fun! Praying for a Hurricane that just falls apart way before it hits land!!
Jamie and her rash, Jean and her shooter finger mishap....................yikes!! Snap out of it, we have to be good and ready for the NM pictures!! I need to lose weight, seriously this is starting to wear my nerves!!
When's the next camera club meeting? My assignment is due today, it's so hard that I'm not sure I'll be able to turn it in on time. The instructor must realize this and sent me some Canon pointers going over the assignment. I'm not ready to know what next weeks assignment is!!
6/30/2010 11:11:05 AM - 002025703401
Weather forecast update....... 70, 80, 70, 50, 50%....... Think it might rain?
6/29/2010 7:29:32 PM - 002067758981
Yuck is right......high tides and rain may cut you off from leaving. Not going
until this is past us. Pray that it goes where there is no people to get hurt.
6/29/2010 2:39:26 PM - 002025703401
From the Gulf........ Forecast is 50% today, then 50, 80, 80, 60, 50% thru Saturday. YUCK!!!
It's kinda messing with our beach plans. Rash is almost gone................. I hope (keep your fingers crossed)!!!
6/29/2010 2:25:07 PM - 002029331419
Is this from that storm in the Gulf...or just your summer rainy days because it's so green down there?
We had a good rain storm last night...but after a couple of hours...it just kept moving! Nice and cool last night!
How's that Rash!? Almost gone?
6/29/2010 11:39:41 AM - 002025703401
Rain, rain go away.........................
6/28/2010 9:18:28 PM - 002067758981
Know what you mean Barb, heat is going to drive us back to beach house. Don't care if it rains for days, I'll just bring my books and be happy.
6/28/2010 3:31:34 PM - 001023411097
Everybody must be taking a break!!!!! Back to the Lake life and hot days seam to follow me. Hi Jamie, I need to get around and visit. What is new with you. My son and his family came here to stay with Mom while we hit the road. Great visit. Hugs bj
6/28/2010 2:38:34 PM - 002025703401
WOW! Must be a record, no comments since Thursday. I've been really exhausted and out of it, the medication has me wore out. But I'm done with the pills and starting to feel a little better today (not as much in a fog). Anyway, have a few pictures from Dad's Birthday and tons of pictures from the Baby Shower. New pages coming........................ {insert evil laugh} my cousins can't wait!!!! :) :) :)
6/24/2010 5:16:39 PM - 002067758981
Hey girls, I'm home....only because we had a call from son saying the paperman had went off the road into our pasture taking down part of the fence..... It's happened a couple of times before, we've been at the beach house every time. Joe's off to Home Depot to buy posts and fencing supplies!!! And I'm off to get my nails done!!! hehehehe Going back to beach as soon as we can.
6/24/2010 2:58:37 PM - 002025703401
The rash is much better..... slowly disappearing but still there. Dealing with side effects of the pills. :(
Not going to the beach this weekend, got my cousin's baby shower on Sunday afternoon. Mom & Dad came home this morning (bet they return by Monday). Dad's birthday is this Saturday too. We are all going to the beach next weekend for the 4th.
Have hotel reservations for Ft Worth. Lisa and I are gonna meet up and find something "cool" to do! :)
6/24/2010 2:13:22 PM - 002029331419
How's that Rash ???....I hope it's almost gone...or Gone would even be better!!
You going to the beach house this weekend too?
Are your plans for Ft Worth coming together??
6/24/2010 4:26:30 AM - 002029331419
I'll take the Blow Dryer!! Steam makes my hair curly!! LOL!!!
6/23/2010 2:14:35 PM - 002025703401
Imagine your iron doing a puff of steam on you here!!!
Rash seems better this morning.......... keep your fingers cross!
6/22/2010 3:04:02 PM - 002029331419
The Meds are going to make you feel better......I just know it! Wow...what a case of travel fever I get when airlines has some great prices posted!!
Hot here too........but "It's a dry heat" -Imagine your blowdryer blowing on you...all day.....but that's supposed to change tomorrow..we might get some showers in the afternoon, which will cool things down a LOT!
6/22/2010 12:44:33 PM - 001024320926
Lula Mae wants you to get better so you can get back up and at it!! I hope the steriods work out, I feel strongly that they will :) You'll be you're ol self before too long :)
It was HOT here yesterday but there was a big ol wind, that helped a little :)
6/22/2010 11:53:49 AM - 002025703401
Doctor gave me a new prescription so we'll see if I can't get rid of the rash this week.
6/21/2010 1:45:03 PM - 002086548916
Hey Jamie, how are you feeling? My mom was telling me about your rash, sure am sorry you are going through this. I hope the Dr's can figure out what is going on and make it go away really soon! Hope you had a great weekend because Monday is here and its back to work we go....blah! :)
6/21/2010 11:33:30 AM - 002025703401
Bummer on the camping trip!
Beach was 10 degrees cooler than home and breezy. Spent the weekend trying not to get hot and staying out of the sun. Rash is better (I think) but still there. Going back to the doctor this afternoon.
Dad is still working on painting the house. He and Mom have decided that they are in no hurry to come home. Garden is about done for until the Fall. Dad does want to get finished painting so that he can start fishing. Mom & I have a baby shower on Sunday afternoon, so they have to come home before then........

I hope a weekend at the Beach house was just what the Dr ordered and you are feeling better tonight!
Was it hot there...or were the breezes just right?
I'm so sad that we didn't get to go camping...but we are trying to think of a way to make up for having to
stay another week and work.! It was just one of those things that come up with Steve's work...and we just
have to work around it.
Have a great week!
6/18/2010 3:08:39 PM - 002025703401
HAHA!!! It's an unwanted WEED!!!
6/18/2010 3:06:39 PM - 002029331419
Now why would you grow something in your in own yard that would do this to you?!?!
6/17/2010 7:33:08 PM - 002025703401
Yard work........ Jamie is now boycotting all yard work!!!
6/17/2010 7:18:24 PM - 002029331419
Jamie...I hope you can identify just how you got this rash to start with....just so you can avoid it for years to come! Just chilling at the Beach house..........wow...I bet you signed up for that in a hurry!! LOL!!
6/17/2010 6:24:11 PM - 002025703401
Live from Mesquite Texas........ I hear it in a rodeo announcer voice in my head!!! LOL!!!!
6/17/2010 5:10:06 PM - 001024320926
Bummer!! no painting for you, that must be very disappointing :) Thinking about a sunburn on a rash makes me feel a little faint, seriously that would hurt!!
Beverly just gave me a little watch to give Kyleigh, she got it in her happy meal, it's a Shrek watch. Kyleigh is going to looooove it.
Typing to you today live from my new office :) I am hoping to feel more comfy here soon, it's odd right now and I miss my friends.
6/17/2010 4:18:11 PM - 002025703401
It's not itching as much....... is about all I can say!!! Wanna see another picture? NO? LOL!!! Mom makes me send her a picture of it every morning.
I'm gonna head down tomorrow evening and do nothing all weekend. Mom informed Dad that I can't get hot or out in the sun. So..... NO painting for Jamie. Bet this bad bobo would sunburn real easy! Ouch!!!!
6/17/2010 4:11:40 PM - 002029331419
Are you over that rash....YET?!?!
Linda, Have fun at the Beach house!!
6/16/2010 8:13:30 PM - 001062713509
I haven't been on for a while so I missed out on the big goober guru news ~ but congrats! BTW, love the daylilly pic up top!
6/15/2010 11:54:07 PM - 000074469281
QGG is very appropriate!!
6/15/2010 11:53:16 PM - 000074469281
I thought I heard a beer crack open when the song came on!! CONGRATS GOOBER GURU Jamie. I am Uber excited you are on the team!! Woo-hoo!!
I sent you an email - important Guru 'stuff'!! Email me, you silly!!
6/15/2010 9:04:40 PM - 002025703401
Where in the world did you come up with QVC in relation to QGG???? What are you and Rhonda drinking?
6/15/2010 9:01:49 PM - 002029331419
Seeing how Jamie loves QVC....I think QGG is very doable!! :0)
6/15/2010 8:21:26 PM - 002086548916
Jamie!!! Congrats on this new ranking....being a Guru, I mean. I don't think we are ready to give you the Royal Highness title...yet. QGG will have to do for now, lol.
Can't wait to see you in October!
6/15/2010 7:37:01 PM - 002025703401
Her Royal Highness still works.......... I'm just sayin!!!!! LOL!!!!!!
6/15/2010 7:33:23 PM - 002059624475
I'm so confused now. Do I call her "The Queen Goober"?, "The Queen Guru"?. "The Queen Guru Goober"? Now I don't know what to do??!!
6/15/2010 7:09:53 PM - 002067758981
What does being a GURU mean? What do they do? Barb, if you were closer, you would be peeling tomatoes right now. And cooking squash!! And cutting corn off the cob!! And slicing cucumbers!! Well, you get the picture of my day today........going to beach house tomorrow. Son can deal with veggies and share with neighbors.
6/15/2010 7:00:54 PM - 001024320926
Yea!! Jamie is a Guru :)
6/15/2010 6:58:14 PM - 001023411097
JAMIE IS A GURU, I'M SO GLAD NOW SHE CAN GO TO WORK!!! :)
6/15/2010 6:57:26 PM - 001023411097

Yea....hope you feel better soon.
6/14/2010 7:50:19 PM - 002025703401
Doctor doesn't think it's shingles. Picking up new creme that he called into my drugstore this evening.
6/14/2010 7:19:34 PM - 002067758981
Sure hope its not shingles.....very painful!! Have not heard from her....at doctors office now.
6/14/2010 4:24:07 PM - 002029331419
There's a guy here that works for us........rash on his back...painful....might have Shingles.....You don't have that..right?!!? Jamie!! I'm so glad your going to the Dr!
Linda - Yummmmmm Fresh veggies!
6/14/2010 2:40:51 PM - 002067758981
Tomatoes, tomatoes and more tomatoes!!!! Along with a few squash, zuchinni, cucumbers, corn and peppers. Picking peas today......think we are going to run away to beach house later in the week, don't tell the veggies!!!
6/14/2010 2:38:12 PM - 002025703401
Rash is still spreading and itching, so I've got a 1:45 doctors appointment. Trying to work on a book, but the Benadryl keeps knocking me out. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
6/14/2010 2:15:02 PM - 002029331419
Hey my Southern Belles!! How was your weekend?!?! Jamie...you were sooo quiet....I hope that rash doesn't have you in a Coma!?!? ;0) Linda...you must be working the goodies coming out of that wonderful garden you have! What is it this week?
I was up at 6:00...Baked a homemade blueberry cobbler for Rhonda's arrival today. Put the Pork in the Roaster for BBQ Pulled Pork for supper tonight. Picked up around the house ...and at work by 7:40! That is VERY good for me for a Monday morning! Whew!
The weekend FLEWWW by! We had Steve's Dad's 80th party on Sat night...and I cleaned carpets that morning!
I did get 2 photobooks done that took most of yesterday afternoon!
Ok, back to work...had to come say HI!! :0)
6/12/2010 9:08:26 PM - 002067758981
Jean, she will be going to the doctor Monday, if she is not a lot better. I have to see for myself this afernoon. I remember very well what shingles look like. She's never had rash from poison oak before.
6/12/2010 7:21:55 PM - 002025703401
I don't know where I got the rash..... maybe from some poison oak I pulled up last Sunday, but the rash didn't appear until Wednesday. Tried Benadryl but Cortizone seems to give me better relief. Doesn't help that I've got a head cold too! :(
(Don't make me send you the rash picture like I sent to Mom and Lisa!)
6/12/2010 7:08:31 PM - 002029331419
What is your rash from? What are you putting on it to keep it from itching?
6/12/2010 2:13:21 PM - 002025703401
Maybe a little better. Cold seems better...... but the rash is about the same.
6/12/2010 1:59:23 PM - 001024320926
Ooops!! How are you feeling? How's the spot on your neck?
6/12/2010 1:00:34 AM - 002025703401
STOP saying itching!!!!! Everytime I see itching, it starts again!!!!!!! I'm going MAD!!!!!!
6/11/2010 11:22:12 PM - 001024320926
Are you itching? STOP!! the madness and stop itching!!
6/11/2010 5:37:54 PM - 002067758981
You don't have shingles, do you?
6/11/2010 3:24:13 PM - 002020640084

Love the Galveston Pics!!!!
6/5/2010 3:01:18 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Your new page Memorial Day Weekend is really beautiful. of course Lula Mae did very well on her first outing. I can tell that you had a great time despite the heat. By the time your fall cruise comes along you and Lula Mae will be returning with fabulous photos. Have a great weekend and thanks for all the wonderful pictures you share with us shutterfly gals.
6/5/2010 1:38:46 PM - 002025703401
Lula Mae and I didn't do too bad for a first trip. Gotta practise a lot before the fall cruise! Where can I go??? :)
6/5/2010 1:35:23 PM - 001024320926
Loooovoe the new page and all the pictures!! You and Lula Mae make a good team :) Love it all :):)
6/5/2010 12:01:35 PM - 002025703401
I got the idea for the page layout from Lisa.
The beach shot......... LOL! Kim and I were lazy, sitting on our hotel room balcony while everyone else went to the beach. We stalked them with our cameras.
And Joey..... Lula Mae is a Canon Rebel too!!
Barb - I had an awesome time with you. Can't wait for another Texas meetup!!! Maybe we could even drag Linda along...........
6/5/2010 4:39:13 AM - 001023411097
OMG, Jamie your pictures are awesome. I took time only to look at them it is late tonight and will be back tomorrow. I just love all your photos, love the flowers. The lighting on that camera is awesome. Great trip!
6/5/2010 3:32:00 AM - 000074469281
I need to keep my mouth shut about that John. He really irked me and the things he said on Joanne's pictures and Lisa's.
I LOVE your new page Jamie. I love how you set it up. I want to do that.. I think Lisa has something similar - did u just drag things to where you wanted them? I LOVE that beach shot with everyone standing - that is so COOL! I Love all the fun photos, meeting everyone. Way fun and your photos are incredible.
I saw you named your camera Lula Mae - i like it very much!! I still need to think of one. I kind of forgot about it. Mine is a Canon Rebel but not as fancy as yyours. Thx for stopping by my new site.
Maybe one day we will meet too!!
Thx for sharing your great page!!
6/4/2010 9:47:33 PM - 002067758981
Like your new page for shutterfly buddies!!! Home for a few days and then back to beach house.....we've gotten two new babies (calves not donkeys) since we left Wednesday.Cute, you'll have to take their picture this week-end.
6/4/2010 4:01:46 AM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thanks first of all for the heads up on what John posted and for having my back. I appreciate it. I thought shutterfly was to have fun and share a passion that you have for photography. And there is a polite way to share your tips for better photos. Granted I still have a lot to learn but I am glad that I have you in my corner as well as Joey and Rhonda. Now to the good stuff, your changes are fabulous. LOVE your home page and the blue color of your site. Since it is after midnight I shall visit again to explore your site. Thanks again for your support and kind comments.
6/3/2010 2:33:24 PM - 001024320926

Dad thinks about a month for the first baby and the other one maybe 2. :O)
5/17/2010 6:50:14 PM - 001024320926
Ok, did I tell you that when I went to Best Buy for the memory stick, I walked into that dept and a guy asks me if he can help, I said I need one of those memory stick, zip, drive, whatever you call them. He just smiled and walked to the aisle they were on, so I said you know I have to tell you that even though I don't know that name of it I know how to use it :) He said well that helps ;)
I loaded it up yesterday, brought it to work and have already uploaded 281 pictures to Shutterfly from the above mentioned stick :) I love the thing!!!
5/17/2010 2:04:42 PM - 002029331419

Love all the new pics I see! I have to leave for my camera field trip soon, so will come back later to see your site, looks like a lot of new things!! Great! I love Texas photos! Have a great day, today, and all week! Deb
5/16/2010 2:18:40 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, By the way I LOVE, LOVE your In the Garden page. Just beautiful. The photos and the nature sounds. It is like walking into a garden anytime you want to and I like that. Thanks for sharing.
5/16/2010 2:14:46 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, How are you doing this fine Sunday morning? Yes, today is dinner with my mom and spending some time with her. And today the sun is out and I always love when the sun is out. It just gives off a sense of happiness. What's in store for you this coming week? And plans to take Lula Mae along for an adventure or two. Still thinking for a name for my camera. Jean said something with NY ties....any ideas?
Have a great day and hope you do something that you enjoy. Catch you during the week. Take care.
5/15/2010 5:21:58 PM - 002025703401
And Jamie should be working but she is reading on the internet.
5/15/2010 5:13:03 PM - 001024320926
Hi Goob! I'm not sure that Jean will go for Juan, I'm curious to see what she comes up with, she's terribly clever you know :) I'm supposed to be working but I'm horsing around waiting on the printer to work!!
Linda's garden sounds like it is going to town!! Wade (my brother) and Becky have a giant garden, tons of stuff, it was looking really good and the cows pushed the gate down.............destroyed and ate everything in sight. I thought Becky was going to cry telling me about it :(
5/15/2010 5:04:28 PM - 002025703401
Hi Deborah! Stop by anytime!!!
5/15/2010 3:42:49 PM - 001062713509
Good morning Jamie! Just dropping by, still trying to get to know everyone. I could just spend all day looking at the pictures and reading the comments, but my husband would like some breakfast :)
Hope you have a great weekend!
5/15/2010 2:50:57 PM - 002067758981
LOL Have some in the pot and a bunch on counter right now!!!!!
5/15/2010 4:05:22 AM - 002025703401
If Mom should by some chance ask for your address, run and hide.........
Don't give it to her or else you will receive squash........ lots of squash!!!
5/14/2010 4:14:31 PM - 002029331419
We're supposed to get rain too...but it'll just be some showers and then pass by.
I have paint and need to get busy on some stuff I need done too. Tonight...Brisket and a few friends over for dinner and then the weekend ! I might watch Hannah for a few hours tomorrow...the kids are going to help another young couple lay sod in their backyard. It would be fun to have her over and let her play in the yard with Sadie. They get their little games going and play very well together!
I'll work on some names and have a poll next week for my camera name! :0)
Have a great weekend Ladies! :0)
5/14/2010 3:33:50 PM - 002086548916
Hey Jamie, guess what?!?! It's Friday!!! I hope you have a great weekend ;)
5/14/2010 2:42:27 AM - 001024320926
Did you hear that Jean is thinking of names for her camera too?
5/14/2010 2:38:12 AM - 002067758981
OOOOH Jamie, Maris is going to get you back!!!!
5/13/2010 3:04:38 PM - 002025703401
Working....... shopping for beach house painting supplies........ taking pictures of the donkeys....... :)
We were going to the beach house to start painting but rain is in the forecast and we still need to get new rollers and brushes. The paint was delivered today and is in the back of my vehicle.
Definitely headed to the beach the following weekend. We have several repairs we want to get done before the start of fishing season. :)
5/13/2010 2:21:28 PM - 002029331419
So what's on your schedule for this weekend?
5/13/2010 2:47:07 AM - 001062713509
all of your pages are so pretty ~ i couldn't possibly pic a favorite.
5/13/2010 1:28:45 AM - 002025703401
Maris...... You knew I had the camera in my hand, and yet you still made faces at me. Can't wait til next time!!!! :O)
5/13/2010 1:06:58 AM - 003031678750
That is a lovely set of pictures from Mother's Day... I love you dearly but I will pay you back!! ...Death to LULA MAE! Muahahahah! Just kidding... (But I will return the favor at some point)
5/13/2010 12:01:20 AM - 001024320926
Love the new page!! Great pictures, love the fox glove!!
5/13/2010 12:00:02 AM - 001024320926
I had an idea for the all tehe cameras while we're in New Mexico, we will lay them on a table all together and take iPhone pictures of them. A convention of cameras, Hunter, Ozzie, Lula Mae and Diego!! Love it!! Of course all the rest of them too. I asked Jean if she would be naming her camera too :)
5/12/2010 2:33:31 PM - 002029331419
Your weekend pics are great! Looked like a lot of fun at your Uncle's...and your flower pics from the greenhouse are really pretty!! I think you and Lulu Mae are going to be come Very Good Friends!! :0)
5/12/2010 3:15:47 AM - 002025703401

5/10/2010 10:57:50 PM - 001024320926
Lula Mae looks good up there Jamie :) How did she enjoy her trip yesterday, I saw a couple of the pictures and I think she liked the place. Diego is going to get mad at me, I didn't even get him out of the bag this weekend :(
Linda sent me some cell pictures this morning, too pretty, I think she enjoyed herself. Said she loved her book :)
5/10/2010 6:34:48 PM - 000031826072
OK - so I stopped by to vote on the camera name and looks like I'm too late....Lula Mae it is! I like it, tho, nice and southern. Hope Mother's Day was awesome for both Linda and Jamie! Welcome Lula Mae!
5/10/2010 3:44:45 AM - 002025703401
Glad you like your book and had fun today Momma!!! Two old ladies wore me out! ;)
5/10/2010 2:12:57 AM - 002067758981
Had a great time today!!!!! My new book is awesome....thanks again, Jamie, really enjoyed ourselves !!!!
5/9/2010 5:34:09 PM - 002029331419
Happy Mother's Day Linda!! And I hope you guys have a really fun trip today! :0)
Lulu Mae....Welcome Girl!!
Over to D&V's for a cook out!! wooo hoo!
5/9/2010 3:02:34 PM - 001076975951
YES Lula Mae won...that was my vote. Jamie hope you and your mom have a wonderful Mother's day. enjoy and share some wonderful moments.... Wishing you all the best.
5/9/2010 1:25:10 PM - 002059624475
Lula Mae it is. Maybe I'll use Stella if I ever get a new camera :)
5/9/2010 1:23:48 PM - 002059624475
OMG, if that's what you do for Easter, Holy Cow!! I wanna come for dinner sometime, but then I probably would never leave!!
5/8/2010 6:47:04 PM - 001024320926
I like the name Stella, it's got that old Hollywood feel to it :) I also love Ava. MY granny's name is Alta Mae :)
So we have a new member to the named camera world, welcome Lula Mae!! You are in good hands, Jamie will take you on many adventures!! I look forard to meeting you the end of this month.
Happy Mothers Day Linda!! I hope that you have a wonderful day on you outtings with Jamie :)
I've been looking up cruise info this morning :) but I think I will do the Hawaii thing first and make sure that is reserved, hope to do that by the end of the month.
5/8/2010 12:56:28 PM - 002067758981
Well, I can tell ya'll that's a first.....we have no Lula Mae until now.
5/8/2010 2:40:43 AM - 002025703401
Rhonda, I actually have a cousin named Stella...... true!!! I can't make this stuff up!
Looks like the winner is Lula Mae! :)
5/8/2010 12:37:15 AM - 002059624475
Okay, since your camera is female, I vote for the name, "Stella", in my best Marlon Brando imitation!!
5/7/2010 6:52:03 PM - 001023411097
How funny, I am loving your camera names. HA! You and your mom have a great week-end in Forest Hills. I thank you for coming by to see me. I must see what is new. Hugs bj
5/7/2010 2:43:15 PM - 002025703401
If I click on show results and then on 3 votes, I see your vote........ Cowgirl :)
5/7/2010 2:37:30 PM - 001024320926
It's still not showing my vote, I have no choice but to think it personal :(
5/7/2010 2:29:20 PM - 002025703401
Cause Jamie is a big Goob and set the second vote up wrong. Try to change your vote. :)
Looks like Lula Mae is winning..............
5/7/2010 2:24:41 PM - 002086548916
Hey, why can't I vote?
5/7/2010 2:12:50 PM - 002029331419
Ok, I placed another VOTE on a Girls Name...which you told me it had to be a guy....but those are Girls names!
Gotta tell Rhonda.........I used to watch Ozzie when he was first with the Padres!! Wow! Did he have a glove ..or what!!!
5/7/2010 12:34:10 PM - 001024320926
Hey it won't let me vote, I don't think it took my vote from last night, I voted for Lula Mae :)
5/7/2010 2:16:01 AM - 001024320926
I voted again :) I see Rhonda named her camera Ozzie, I absolutely love that!!!
5/7/2010 2:10:11 AM - 002035648808
Wow Jamie...I just love your In the Garden, Breham and Texas Wildflower page. Wow, what good friends, laughing when you fell down, it was kind of funny, hahaha. Just kidding. Glad you samed the camera. That's all that counts, right? lol! The wildflowers in Texas are just gorgeous. I love the collage page. Wow, the colors are great. I am going to start planting about 16 flats of flowers starting tomorrow, ugh! Have a great week-end and I'll catch ya later :)
5/7/2010 2:04:28 AM - 001062713509
Thanks for adding me Jaimie ~ I am so excited to get to know everyone and learn from you guys. I love to go out for an adventure just to see what I can see! You pages & photos are beautiful ~ I will be back to browse some more! Deborah
5/7/2010 2:04:08 AM - 002035648808
Hi Jamie....Thought I would stop by and vote. I absolutely love all you changes on your site. The headers are just gorgeous. I might just have to steal your idea, lol! I hope you are doing well. I picked Lula Mae for my vote. I just named my camera today. Rhonda Pi thought it should be Branson because she thought I lived in Branson but I live in Piedmont. I have decided on Ozzie after Ozzie Smith from the St. Louis Cardinals. I was a big fan of his. I just love your pics on some of my favorites. In case you didn't know, I love taking pics of flowers, lol! It looks like you might like it a little too. I am going to browse some. I'll catch up with ya later :)
5/6/2010 4:19:46 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thanks for the advice on my journal entry. I hope I am not over reacting and really making a mountain out of a mowhill. But over the years insults and comments that put you down are hurtful. And she is very insulting and comments she has made are uncalled for. I am glad you liked my new door and light fixture. I am happy with the results and LOL NOW I can enjoy my home.
5/6/2010 3:00:51 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, LOL it is scary when that red light goes on. Joe tells me to fill up when I reach half a tank. So that is what I try to do. You are correct you have to think of emergencies...you never know. The last time my light has gone on has been a while.
Love your poll and I voted for Lula Mae. I always thought of people from the south going by 2 names. It sounds like it fits in. Enjoy your day Jamie.
5/6/2010 2:31:41 PM - 002025703401
So...... she calls me this morning! :) I think Lisa missed me!!!!
5/6/2010 12:24:52 PM - 001024320926
So how is the voting coming along? Looking good!! Thanks for checking out the zoo pictures, we had a good time together, her being strolled around in the stroller, me dragging everything and struggling with the crowd :) I may have to order one of Kay's books too, she did a great job on it!! I'm still going to put together my book and see if I like it, we'll see. I didn't get to talk with you last night, miss me?
5/6/2010 5:05:36 AM - 001038348079
Hey there sane one? ha...(ha....hahaha) LMAO!!! My camera has a couple names. Depends on if it shoots good or bad! I am sure you will hear them when we meet. I can't believe I get to meet you guys. I"m so so so so very excited! Congrats on getting your new baby! How exciting! Love your above slideshow! "hello little bee!" I'll be back! I promise I won't stay away so long! (got some senior photo books to get done and then I might slow down alittle. its 0105 here now. I prob should go to bed!)
LOL
5/6/2010 2:02:18 AM - 002025703401
Leave it to Rhonda.........
Yes Rhonda, I'm open to other suggestions! "He" or "She"...... since the camera is so new it can be either.
Thanks Vickie! What are we gonna do about your sister(s)???? :O)
5/6/2010 12:17:26 AM - 002057345076
Hi Jamie!!! Hey! This is so good.
5/5/2010 11:58:22 PM - 002059624475
Jamie, I looked all around. Your pictures are georgeous. Many beautiful flowers - and I'm sure I can't name very many of them!! :) Love our trip pics and Antique Rose. You'll have more balloon pics before you know it!!
5/5/2010 11:43:40 PM - 002059624475
Well first of all, is it a "he" or a "she"? That will play a strong part in my guess and if I don't want any of the picks, can I put my own on?
5/5/2010 5:03:43 PM - 002025703401
Jean..... Jean...... Jean....... {deep sigh} I'm sorry I didn't use yours! Please don't cry!!!
5/5/2010 4:59:39 PM - 002029331419
Ok..I voted too.........Crushed that you didn't like or use any of my suggestions....I'll just go back to my site...sniff.........tear..........
5/5/2010 4:54:27 PM - 002025703401
Our family actually knows a Tootsie! :)
Added a picture of my new Canon Rebel T2i at the top.
And...... yes Lisa, I have a BIG, BAD research habit!!!
5/5/2010 4:45:29 PM - 002067758981
Tootsie is my vote with Toots for nickname
5/5/2010 4:43:21 PM - 000074469281
Your header is gorgeous! I love the names you picked. I picked the same one Kay did!!
What kind of camera did you get? Must be new-camera-buying time!
5/5/2010 4:42:47 PM - 001024320926
I love the vote!! I was making fun of your research habit :):)
5/5/2010 4:29:04 PM - 002086548916
Those are some fun names! I voted :)
5/5/2010 4:28:23 PM - 002025703401
Lisa Marie....... you are the one who said I need to get busy. I thought Jean's idea of a poll was great!!!
5/5/2010 4:19:44 PM - 001024320926
She said she had to work on getting the name, that means polls and studies, mass meetings of the minds, test runs...........I voted!!
5/5/2010 2:25:57 PM - 002029331419
Caffine!!...did you walk it off? :0) I was up about 3 this morning....I forgot to wear my brace to bed and yup...hands were throbbing really bad! :0( My test is next Tuesday...gotta figure this out!
Steve is liking the changes in the email department! ha!
Put up a Poll...of all of the names you reallly like..!:0)
Saturday just might be a 'me' day...I could so use one of those! Sunday after Church, cook out at D&V's!
5/5/2010 11:10:00 AM - 002025703401
I've been "ordered" by Lisa to make a decision, but I'm still deciding. Still open to more suggestions.
5/4/2010 7:17:04 PM - 002029331419
I gave you southern gentlemen names..............!! No one knew you were waiting on names....speak up!!
5/4/2010 6:39:39 PM - 002025703401
Ha Ha!!!! But........ you may have a point! :)
5/4/2010 6:37:29 PM - 002071401838
Congrats on the new camera. My first thought for a name is Cal (short for 'calamity', since its owner seems to be a little accident prone). Or, how about Ax - you know, short for 'ax'ident waiting to happen???
5/4/2010 6:09:59 PM - 002025703401
Waiting on name suggestions from my buddies...........
5/4/2010 5:17:45 PM - 001024320926
Woohoo!! a road trip, sounds like a fun one too :) A work out with the new nameless camera. What gives how come you haven't named it yet?
5/4/2010 4:28:18 PM - 002029331419
Cooollll!....
5/4/2010 3:26:13 PM - 002025703401
Taking Mom and Maureen to a wholesale plant nursery on Sunday for Mother's Day in Louisiana. The Camera will be along for the ride...........
5/4/2010 3:13:15 PM - 002029331419
I would think that there should be some of the same basic functions from Canon to Canon?...Your going to have a lot of fun getting know your camera....it takes a few thousand pics...so get on that, would you! You'll be so ready for the Balloons and the Tram in October! ;0)
5/4/2010 2:41:04 PM - 002025703401
I took a few photos yesterday. They are ok..... I need to read the manual and practise..... a lot!
Fell asleep in the chair last night before I could get to the manual. Oh well, I'll try again tonight....... ;)
5/3/2010 9:16:04 PM - 002086548916
Mom loves to get up and scoot every once in a while, but she is always safe!
5/3/2010 8:43:43 PM - 002029331419
I'm glad you could use some in March!!....see...you were supposed to come! ;0)
5/3/2010 7:48:39 PM - 002025703401
Yup...... Hope I don't lose points. :(
5/3/2010 7:47:06 PM - 002025703401
YEE HAW!!!!!
Three years old with 12,000 miles........ that baby needs a workout!!
5/3/2010 7:45:41 PM - 002029331419
Did you see the news about the airline Merge??
5/3/2010 7:37:33 PM - 002029331419
Let's do it!!!!!!!!!!! "I'm wit you!" I'll even help drive!!! Buckle up ...we're blowing the dust off this baby!! LOL!! haha!!
Garden 2010........Beautiful! :0)
5/3/2010 6:14:10 PM - 002025703401
Computers, copy machines, postage machine, etc. just act typically male...............
I will admit my GPS is called Rosie only because of the voice.
Those are some good choices Jean! Hummmmmmmm................
How about a roadtrip in Momma's car? It needs some mile put on it!
5/3/2010 4:31:34 PM - 002029331419
electronics is male?..........so I'm looking at Jose, Julio or Juan...huh...nice NM names... LOL!!!!
5/3/2010 4:30:41 PM - 002029331419
January.........it is just a wee bit over due!!
Linda...I bet it does drive smooth at a high rate of speed....but we know Jamie doesn't speed...so it didn't get that thrill today!! LOL!! Should I come down and try it out for you?!
Jamie.....southern male names... Rhett...Gone with the Wind, Forrest ...as in Gump, ......Walker as in Texas Ranger.
See...."southern" is all in prespective!! hehe! :0)
5/3/2010 4:20:30 PM - 002025703401
I wasn't gonna bring up the expiration date........ :)
5/3/2010 4:16:55 PM - 003017583831
JAMIE LEigh!!!! I wouldn't have speeding if I had been driving, especially since inspection sticker had expired at the end of January....hehehehehehe
5/3/2010 2:40:26 PM - 002025703401
Yup my camera has issues that are getting worse. :(
I was just window shopping on Saturday....... kicking the tires so to speak...... looking at the the different models, when the new Canon T2i caught my eye. Canon has a $250 instant rebate and I read online that Best Buy would have it on sale starting Sunday for an additional $300 off. Well...... you know me and a sale.
I have a NEW camera!!! :O)
Name....... hummmmmmm......... Most electronics are seem to be male. Southern name......... I would name it Bubba, but already know a few of them. Gotta think about this one...........
Driving Mom's car today for an oil change and state inspection. Did you know it drives REALLY smooth at a high rate of speed?
5/3/2010 12:38:23 AM - 002029331419
I get a 24 hour flu bug............and you get a new camera!!!!??? Wha??? hehe! :0)
Jamie...I'm really happy for you.....the new smell of a camera is just what you needed to lift your spirits and be having a bunch of fun between now and your Cruise! (great excuse if ya ask me!) Your gonna love your DSLR and all of the features!! VERRRY Cool...but I didn't know you were having camera issues!! You have a blue ribbon that says what you were using was working...but ooo a new camera!! Oh yea!!! :0) Name?? What are you going to name it?? ...I think a southern name.....is it a he or she? You guys are going to be good buddies...make sure it's something you really like! :0)
Steve and I are so much better! Wow..a lousy 24 hours for a weekend...so glad we didn't go camping this weekend, the flu AND cold temps!! yikes!! Have a wonderful eveniing.........I think your watching AR?!?
5/2/2010 1:48:46 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, LOVE the new header. Just beautiful. Hope your weekend has fun and adventure. Hope you are well and your family also. I just enjoy my visits here every time I come by. Have a great day.
5/2/2010 1:48:11 PM - 002025703401
I was a little jealous that everyone else was getting a new camera, but I've kept talking myself out of one.
Then mine started acting up. I've only had it about a year and a half, but the picture count is close to 11,000 which is high for my point & shoot. The lens motor has been running louder and louder. Now it's starting to throw lens errors.
So.......... I've justified to myself that I don't want my camera to die on our cruise and I need to practice before the trip. Just ordered the new Canon T2i and gonna pick it up this afternoon. Moving up to a DSLR with no lens motor to wear out.
And yes...... it does video too, so I will still be able to capture those "special" moments! :O)
By the way, those of you who missed the burgers...... Simply Delicious!!!! 
We also watched Blind Side. Really good movie.
5/2/2010 12:26:54 PM - 001023411097
ARE YOU BUYING A NEW CAMERA? I LOVE VISITING HERE AND SAYING HELLO PLUS SEEING ALL YOUR BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHS. GIRL YOU ARE GOOD!!!!

It's beautiful in here :)
I'm gonna want a picture of the new purchase tomorrow and I fully expect you to name it :)
5/1/2010 4:39:55 PM - 002086548916
Wooooo, Look at the PANK! Can't believe it!!!
5/1/2010 3:22:40 PM - 001024320926
Woohoo!! I'm in a blush and bashful frame of mind now!! I love the new header and the site color change, beautiful!! Looking good Jamie!!
5/1/2010 2:54:41 AM - 002029331419
Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!! Look at this new color...and dynamite header!! woo hoo! Love it!!
5/1/2010 2:23:34 AM - 002067758981
Rose Emporium pictures are great! Awesome day at an awesome place.
5/1/2010 2:23:21 AM - 002025703401
Had to find a color that didn't clash with the azaleas. I'm never going to hear the end of this I'm sure..... It's soooo PANK!!! :o)
5/1/2010 2:19:04 AM - 002067758981
Like the new header!!!!
4/30/2010 5:00:43 PM - 002086548916
Hi Jamie - aka...Queen Goob! Your site is looking really good! Great pictures from your recent trips!
4/30/2010 2:33:33 PM - 001024320926
PS: I'm right about the hamburger meat for grilling :)

Hi Jamie, So glad you came on by. Thanks for liking my picket fence photo. Yep I am having home improvement. New windows, front door, siding. Almost finished Jean was talking about a photo of a butterfly I have on my What;s New Page. I guess many other S/F friends have butterfly photos too. Which by the way I love the slideshow of your Favorite Photos including the butterfly. Just beautiful.
Love your countdown clocks...lots of adventures are awaiting you. Hope you & your family are all well. Have a great weekend Jamie. I'll catch you during the weekend. Enjoy and take care.
4/30/2010 5:46:52 AM - 000074469281
Your favorite photos are incredible. You should make a book out of those.
You do know i got my fascinatination of taking moon shots from you, after I saw the ones you posted on my site, I was blown away. I said, 'Oh thats what it looks like' - I always thought people doctored them up!!
Its so fun to be able to capture it and have the moon actually turn out.
My new camera may just have to be called moonie - seems rather fitting!
Catch ya later. Love all your photos. Inspires me to see what I can come up with!
The San Diego photos and video are a hoot!
4/30/2010 4:20:10 AM - 001038348079

4/30/2010 1:51:03 AM - 002067758981
NO, Jamie, quit trying to stir!!!!
4/29/2010 7:25:41 PM - 002025703401
Does it have coconut in it?
4/29/2010 7:20:16 PM - 002067758981
We haven't eaten Kay's tomotoes or won't until Saturday!!! Kay, I have a new desert I want to make. You can bring one next time.
4/29/2010 12:33:00 PM - 001024320926
Yeah, but look at Kay, you ate her maters!! So if your grilling you need to make sure you don't sample all the goods first :) I love homemade burgers!! Love them, mustard pickle only please!!
4/29/2010 3:03:21 AM - 002067758981
Kay, I'm saving the fresh tomatoes for Saturday for our burgers!!! Come on down. You too Jean and Lisa!!
4/28/2010 8:06:53 PM - 002025703401
6ish...... if you're there, I'll feed you! :)
4/28/2010 8:02:27 PM - 002029331419
Ahem!! Jamie...you've forgotten to tell us what time your grilling!!
4/28/2010 7:30:33 PM - 002025703401
Dessert???? :)
I'm sure Mrs. Cleaver would like a jar.........
4/28/2010 7:23:46 PM - 002071401838
I'm sure Mrs. Cleaver bought me a tomato. YOU just ate it. Burgers sound good - let me know what time. You want me to bring dessert?
Do y'all like mayhaw jelly? Sue and Forrest picked up berries and Mom has been making jelly this week. Let me know if y'all want any.
4/28/2010 7:19:22 PM - 002025703401
Why didn't Mrs. Cleaver get you some tomatoes? My sandwich was soooooo good last night!
We are talking about grillin some burgers on Saturday. Want one?
4/28/2010 7:16:21 PM - 002071401838
That's really a bad habit you have of putting my food in your belly. Remember all the times Mawmaw sent gumbo for me????? It all ended up in your belly. I think I need to report this to Mrs. Cleaver.
4/28/2010 7:10:21 PM - 002025703401
Two answers - 1. Plants 2. In my belly. :)
4/28/2010 7:03:14 PM - 002071401838
Two questions - 1. What did y'all buy at the Antique Rose place? 2. Where are my tomatoes?????
4/28/2010 2:24:39 PM - 002025703401
LIsa..... Honey....... You are on the wrong page of your calendar!!!

Welcome home Jamie, hope your trip was wonderful. And I love your new countdown clock for the balloon festival. You are the true traveler of frequent flyer/driver/cruiser. Love that. Life is short it is meant to be enjoyed and travel is one great way to have fun and enjoy.
Have a great day Jamie.
4/21/2010 4:57:31 PM - 001024320926
Love the bluebonnet profile pictures ;) Sweet!!
I'm looking for the video.............
4/21/2010 3:28:24 PM - 002067758981
Hey, you changed our pictures!!!
4/21/2010 3:27:40 PM - 002067758981
That strawberry shortcake was really good last night, worked hard to get them!!! Jamie ate it before she took picture of it, now everyone knows how badly she wanted that desert if she didn't think to get picture first......hehehe
4/21/2010 2:29:00 PM - 002025703401
Feeling the pain of strawberry picking today......... Pictures are coming, just give me some time. Next trip is Galveston to meet Connie, Lisa, & Barb! The cruise plans are coming along, just planning our excursions.
4/21/2010 12:18:27 PM - 001024320926
Can't wait for the pictures!! I still feel that ping in my heart when I think about missing out on the trip, super sad about it. Sigh!! I'm sure your pictures will make me feel better :) You still tired this morning? What's next on the trip schedule? How are the plans for the cruise coming along?
4/20/2010 2:00:06 PM - 002029331419
Morning!
Just had to come and say ....yes, Jamie.... I missed you!! ;0) But I loved that you sent me a few pics... I showed them to Steve too! Wonderful! I'm soo glad you all had such a good time!! Those long weekends are terrific!! Sounds like the SUV was pretty packed from the weekend! ....that's a sign of a Great Time!
Will be watching for pics! :0)
4/20/2010 1:07:27 PM - 003017583831
Awesome long week-end trip!!! Weather did not bother us, just kept on going, if you can't do what you planned, we just did something else. Spring in Texas is sooooo wonderful!!! May happen in other states but can't beat the Texas hill country in full bloom!!!! Can't wait til Jamie posts SOME of the pictures. Had loads of fun, missed you Lisa, Jean and Darla!!!! Now I have to go into my yard and see what surprises are there since I left!!!!
4/20/2010 3:28:53 AM - 002025703401
Just arrive home around 9:45.....FULL DAY of travel :)
Day 4 (Monday) - Weather wise - no rain but gray sky's most of the day. I actually wore a jacket until about noon..... a jacket in Texas in Mid-April? Weird!!!
Started the day off with our last Texas shaped waffles before leaving the hotel. Then we went to Marburger Orchard for pick your own strawberries. Nine baskets later...... Kay vowed to never pick strawberries again.... EVER! Kay is such a city girl!!! Managed to get all the baskets loaded into the SUV after some creative luggage shifting.
Finally by 11am, we hit the road for home. Stopped in Johnson City at the Hill Country Cupboard for a chicken fried steak lunch.... YUM!!! And after that big lunch, a couple hours later we had to stop at Buc-ee's in Giddings, our favorite snack stop for coffee.
Traveled the La Bahia Road (FM 390) to Independence and the Antique Rose Emporium. The fields at times looked like Monet paintings of blue, orange, and yellow. The gardens were beautiful and Mom purchased 3 plants that we managed to squeeze into the vehicle.
Then it was the final leg home.....no photo stops allowed because it was getting so late in the day.
In summary, we had a great time. Mom is already wanting me to take her and her neighbor back to the Rose Emporium..... Roadtrip!!!! :)
4/20/2010 2:49:45 AM - 001024320926
I'm dying to hear all about the trip!! Where are you?
4/20/2010 2:11:32 AM - 002065887734
Hi, Jamie. Your San Diego Page is wonderful!!! It not only shows how much fun you all had, but also has so many wonderful photos of the area. I really enjoy that since I have never been to that area. (or anywhere west!) Your flowers are gorgeous, the old architecure, the trolley...LOVE IT!!!! thanks for posting your trip. It looks great.
I just found your State Fair Page, so am adding to my original comment. I love the way you set your page up. The header is great and attention grabbing too. Congratulations, girl!!! Your photo looked great. Love the way you set up the page...and shame on you for adding funnel cakes to your snacks. There is a movie theatre close by that has a wonderful food court. I have been known to go there to get a special, individually made funnel cake...AND NOT GO TO THE MOVIES! I really do like your Fair page a bunch!
4/19/2010 2:32:49 AM - 002025703401
Day 3 (Sunday) - Weather started out overcast but became partly cloudy in the afternoon then back to cloudy. But we will take what we can get! Spent the day driving Ranch Roads of Mason and Llano Counties. All I can say is AWESOME! Pictures can not do justice to the beauty of Texas wildflowers. Finished the day back at the Wildseed Farm, dragging Mom into the butterfly haus.
On our way home tomorrow, but we have a full day planned. Does that surprise anyone?
4/19/2010 12:59:16 AM - 002029331419
Are ya home yet? Or is that on Monday? Can't wait to see pictures!!!
We went for a walk this afternoon with Sadie along the river....yep 1.5 miles, decided to turn around...and was soaked by a rain storm by the time we got back to the truck!! ...well...we can use the rain!! ha
Waiting to hear all of the stories!! I know you had a great time!!
4/18/2010 1:56:07 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, I hope you are having a blast and lots of fun on your roadtrip. Can not wait for the garden photos as well as the butterflies, etc. Wish I were there with you. Enjoy the rest of the trip and looking forward to your journals and photos. Travel safe and enjoy.
4/18/2010 11:27:36 AM - 001023411097
I will be looking for your photos soon. I hope your trip was fun and hopefully a little SUN!
4/18/2010 1:57:26 AM - 002025703401
Texas Roadtrip Log: Having an awesome time with Kay and Mom.... but we can have fun in the grocery store together.
Day 1 (Friday) - Drizzly rain off and on all day, but we made the best of it. Highlights were the Pecan Flats Trail in Inks Lake State Park and the Willow City Loop. Got a rock burn on the hike but I saved my camera.... Kay was laughing too hard to get a picture of me down on the ground.
Day 2 (Saturday) - Rained hard off and on all night. Still drizzling all morning, so we decided to shop Fredericksburg. Got a couple new Radko ornaments..... :) Afer a yummy lunch at a German restaurant, the sun actually started trying to come out. We spent an hour photographing bluebonnets in the Catholic Cemetery. It is beautiful!!! I'm still not happy with my blue pictures. The blue seems washed out. Anyway, next up was the Wildflower Seed Farm. More shoping and some delious peach ice cream. We were relaxing & listening to music when we spotted Kim and her aunts. Spent a couple of hours with them photographing the fields, garden center, and the butterfly haus. The butterflies were beautiful! Had a fun, relaxing dinner with Kim's gang at Mamacita's (Mexican food).
The weather is suppose to improve tomorrow so we are back to stalking wildflowers. Later........ :)
4/15/2010 4:56:14 PM - 002029331419
Ok...eat the tail....and some side dishes...they aren't very big! ha!

My hands are killing me today.....I'm self diagnosing....but gonna make the Dr tell me that it's not what I think it is! '''''ouuuuch''''' today!! :0(
4/15/2010 3:07:12 PM - 001024320926
Shutterfly is all jacked up today, wearing my nerves!
4/15/2010 3:06:52 PM - 001024320926
Randy sucks the heads and it makes me sick!! I won't eat the tails or sucks the inerds out of anything like that!! That said I do loooove all the great pictures on the Easter page, looks like it was loads of fun!!
4/15/2010 3:04:08 PM - 002025703401
The tail.... you only eat the tail! :O)
4/15/2010 3:02:25 PM - 002029331419
So...what is the best part of a crawfish?....
4/15/2010 3:46:54 AM - 002025703401
Cook out!!! A little advise..... Don't let them tell you to suck the heads! Let me know if you need anymore advise...... :O)
4/15/2010 3:15:25 AM - 002029331419
Jamie....Love the Easter page!! YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!
The guys in my office just ordered like 50 lbs of crawfish to be delivered next Sat morning for a big cook out! I've never had them....but your page made them look...drool...great!! :0)
I told the PM about a very special cookbook that has great Cajun recipes!!!!!! Yes...I have to bring it into the office tomorrow for him to check out! :0)
4/14/2010 11:44:24 PM - 002088910291
Jamie, Yes that is exactly the Chappel Hill I am talking about, the one in Brenham county! That's where I took my Texas photos! I have not been there for about 20 years, but I loved it there!!!! Thanks for answering, when you said Blue Bell Ice Cream, I knew that it was the place, because we went on a tour of the ice cream factory, and I got a bunch of shoelaces, with a little girl leading a cow on a leash, from there! Hope you see lots of bluebonnets this year!
4/14/2010 11:30:47 PM - 001024320926
Texas stalks them every year, North Texas doesn't have the crop that South and West Texas have, I'm really bummed. I hope I can find some to get Kyleigh this year.
4/14/2010 10:05:08 PM - 002025703401
We will be stalking!!!
4/14/2010 4:04:46 PM - 002029331419

4/12/2010 2:44:22 AM - 003027636861
Jamie I never knew you had such a creative side. I love the photos. Melena
4/12/2010 2:03:30 AM - 001024320926
Howdy Jamie and Linda, I can hardly believe it's going to be April 16th this week!! Something is supposed to happent his week, gosh if I can just remember what it is..............:)
4/10/2010 9:37:21 PM - 002029331419
yeah Linda!!
I noticed our pear trees buds are just starting to peek out...That is the best tree to know if spring is here or not....Since it's starting to bloom...we probably won't have to many colder days now.....it's spring! :0)
4/10/2010 4:54:19 PM - 002067758981
Our spring is here!!! Thank the Lord for that, it's getting close to 80 this week.......I have azaleas, bridal wreath, pansies and dianitus blooming every where. Besides the porch plants that are blooming. Lilies putting on buds for bloom, can hardly wait!!!! Doesn't take much to make me happy........just the sight of a new new green shoot on something I thought was dead or a bud for bloom!!!!!
4/9/2010 7:40:56 PM - 002029331419
OOOOoooo Solar Lights........now yer talking.....do they work pretty good?? I'm thinking of putting some in the back yard...........shhhhhh Steve doesn't know that yet!! LOL!!
4/9/2010 6:31:22 PM - 002025703401
Marcia & I went to Lowe's on our lunch hour today. Got some new solar lights for the flower bed along my sidewalk (some for Mom too) and 6 more flowers for Mom. :)
4/9/2010 3:43:05 PM - 002029331419
I like those Easter Cactus'!! I stopped and looked around at a garden center yesterday...but I think I'll wait and work in the yard tonight and tomorrow...and then figure out what I think I can plant ....then go get some more stuff! Gotta watch for stuff that doesn't take much water.....liquid gold out here in the desert!
The trees along the River are all starting to turn green....so they'll be a pretty yellow when you get here in October! :0)
4/8/2010 2:50:23 PM - 002025703401
So much for rain..... I can spit harder than it rained last night.
Got Mom two Easter cactus, red and pink. Also picked up 6 short dahlias. The azaleas are almost in full bloom around here. BEAUTIFUL!!!
4/8/2010 2:22:13 PM - 002029331419
Hi Linda! What kind of flowers? Are you starting to see some color in your garden yet? You have such a long garden time....nothing with color has started to bloom around here...yet....it's still in the 30's for the lows! I do see our pear tree wanting to bloom...but just not quite there yet!
Jamie...flowers and dinner.....someone didn't want to have to cook last night...did she!?! ;0)
Getting rain? Something to wash the pollen off?
4/8/2010 2:49:45 AM - 002067758981
Jamie brought flowers again today!!! And brought dinner. Nice to have daughter even with allergies making her feel bad......yuk, me too.
4/7/2010 7:46:43 PM - 002029331419
I thought...just maybe ... you might like it! LOL!! ...and to think of everything that we didn't have time to go see! My allergies are starting to kick in this afternoon too.......ugh....
4/7/2010 6:53:37 PM - 002025703401
I think I'm turning yellow from the pollen!!!!!
Waiting on Rhonda to tell us when Spring Break is next year, so we can start planning. I loved San Diego!!!
4/6/2010 11:16:49 PM - 001024320926
I went thru the San Diego page again, LOL! We are silly nuts for sure, but I love it!!
Hope the allergies are better. My car is yellow from all the pollen, what the heck. This should be a bees dream world right now.
4/6/2010 8:14:07 PM - 002059624475
No Goobette - I am not going to miss other Goober Weekends. It's my understanding that the next one is in Albuquerque? Is that correct - Ms. Controller for the Ford Company!!
4/6/2010 8:03:05 PM - 002025703401
Allergies....... are still kicking me...... :O(
4/6/2010 3:28:16 PM - 002029331419
Sent part 2 just now.
Allergies? A cold? Sorry you don't feel so good.... :0(
4/5/2010 8:34:07 PM - 002025703401
Still sound like I swallowed a frog today......... and don't feel very spiffy either. :(
4/5/2010 8:15:50 PM - 002029331419
Your still adding?!?! hehe
Hope it was allergies....the wind is supposed to kick up this afternoon...my ears are already starting to tell me that there is pollen in it! ughhh.
4/4/2010 2:25:11 AM - 002025703401
Thanks!!!! I'm still adding pictures to the San Diego page. Either my allergies are really bad or I've caught a head cold..... it's slowing me down a bit. I actually slept most of this afternoon, which is very unusual for me.
4/3/2010 10:27:50 PM - 002049843840

Hi Jamie! Just wanted to drop by and say hello. It was great meeting you last week. Love the gorgeous photos on your site!
4/2/2010 5:28:58 PM - 002067758981
Jean, they moved our fair because of the hurricanes we get in the fall. And the food was very good!!!!!I vote that crawfish pistolette was best and then the kabob.
They worked hard in band because the kids were all scared of the band director, he ruled the roost and nobody wanted to disapoint him!!!!
4/1/2010 6:27:34 PM - 002025703401
The pork kabob was the best! YUM!!!!!!
4/1/2010 2:07:20 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie! Looks like you had a really fun night at the Fair!! And...Fair Food! YUM!! I liked seeing the quilts too! State Fair for me is usually summer time...so thinking in April....and coats...it's throwing me off just a bit!! LOL!
I watched a couple of the Marching Band video too....You can tell that you all put a lot of work into your routines!!
That was old school filming...but it was preserved pretty well! You should go to a game this year and use your handy dandy camera and get a shot of them today! :0)
4/1/2010 11:32:20 AM - 002025703401
Billie called me in San Diego to a) harress me that I'm "older" than she is, b) ask questions about the Fredericksburg trip, and c) tell me about the band videos.
4/1/2010 1:05:33 AM - 002067758981
WOW!!! Thirty something years ago.......hehehehe Good for Billie for finding this, I love it!!!
4/1/2010 12:39:10 AM - 002067758981
Jamie, band videos made me cry, you guys were soooooooo good. Took my breath every time ya'll got on the field!!!!!! She would not smile because braces would show!!!!

San Diego was great, but the icing on the cake was the laughs and fun with goob friends! The Goobs are more fun than a barrel of monkeys!!! A depends may really be needed!!!! :)
3/30/2010 11:14:04 PM - 002035648808
Okay, Jamie....I must see the video. You guys crack me up. Will I have to wear a depends when I finally meet up with you all because I will be ROFL the whole time if you get my drift. So, a double life, hmmmm! Very interesting. Do we need intelligence to take a peek, lol! You guys sounded like you had too much fun. I'll have to rethink Rhonda Pi. She sound most interesting. I now sound like the dude off Hogan's hero's :) Jean blab. You have given me food for thought. I will just have to wait till I meet everybody and figure you Goobers out for myself. Can't wait!

3/23/2010 7:43:45 PM - 002025703401

So I hear from a reliable source that you are moving in Old Lady status on my birthday tomorrow when I will be moving into "Even Older Lady Status." To make matters worse, my license DOES expire tomorrow and I don't have it renewed yet! Yikes! I hope you have the best birthday ever tomorrow and being born on the wonderful day of March 23rd, I am confident that you will continue to not look a day over 25. Go, Aries girl! Oh, and you youngsters have a blast in San Diego. Can't wait to see all the pictures and the photobooks!
3/22/2010 4:47:32 PM - 002025703401
You made me look..... the license doesn't expire until 2012.
I'll never be as old as Jean & Lisa!!!!
3/22/2010 4:43:19 PM - 002029331419
Only 13 hours left in this day....and then Jamie finally becomes another year older....time to re-new your drivers license??
3/22/2010 4:05:52 PM - 001024320926
Yes!! It's Jamie soon to be Old Lady, those are her words and not mine!! Jamie is a gonna be old tomorrow!!
3/22/2010 2:28:04 PM - 002025703401

Tell me again
3/17/2010 10:47:05 AM - 002025703401

3/15/2010 11:46:23 AM - 002025703401

But Momma, in the name of fairness I included more Goob pictures of me!
3/14/2010 3:52:35 AM - 002067758981
My shutterfly book on our Alaska trip is so wonderful. Jamie is suppposed to bring it to San Diego. She included TOO many GOOBER pictures!!!! Do not let your guard down because she will get you and show the world just how lovely you are not!!!!!lol

No...... since Linda isn't going to San Diego!
Believe I called you a giggly OLD lady!!!
3/13/2010 3:42:04 AM - 001024320926
Hi Linda :) Jamie did you call your mom a giggly old lady??
3/12/2010 5:18:08 PM - 002067758981
Yep......GOOBERS on the loose can be dangerous!!!
3/12/2010 4:59:23 PM - 002025703401
You're worried for the sailors???
3/12/2010 4:49:30 PM - 002067758981
Oh, I'm worried about sailors now!!!! They do not who's coming into town.......
3/12/2010 4:34:56 PM - 002025703401
And I'm leaving you at home with the Beav....... you should be worried!!!!
3/12/2010 4:33:39 PM - 002067758981
Eddie, I think Walley is worried!!!
3/12/2010 4:30:58 PM - 002025703401
A giggling bunch of OLD ladies who are probably older than their mothers...........
3/12/2010 4:24:25 PM - 002029331419
Linda....it's ok! We won't set her up with anyone that she couldn't bring home to meet Momma and Dad! LOL.....!!
(Yeah....like there's going to be any guys that are going to come talk to a bunch of giggling gals with camera's stuck to the front of their faces!! haha....probably not.. .. but had to push Jamie's worry button at least once before the weekend! :0) ) hehe
3/12/2010 4:19:26 PM - 002067758981

3/12/2010 3:21:46 PM - 002025703401
Oh it's getting deep now..........
3/12/2010 3:18:25 PM - 002071401838
Thank you, Mrs. Cleaver. Is there anything I can do for you, Mrs. Cleaver? I hope you are doing well today, Mrs. Cleaver. :)
3/12/2010 1:58:01 PM - 002067758981
Nope, no fall here!!! Just trying to give Kay the choice........you know I have to take care of Eddie!!!!
3/12/2010 1:57:43 AM - 002025703401
Mom.... I told Kay that you asked if she really wants to eat crabs on Saturday night.
Kay is now worried that you have fallen and hit your head.
3/11/2010 10:06:42 PM - 002067758981
Jean, I thought you were the responsible one.........don't make me worry!!!!! I forgot you had the stir stick!!!
3/11/2010 9:18:11 PM - 002025703401
Oh My......... I'm starting to worry........
3/11/2010 9:02:07 PM - 002029331419
Ya know Jamie.............San Diego is quite the Sailor town......
3/11/2010 9:01:23 PM - 002029331419
We ALL know that she wasn't just refering to Lisa! Nice try Jamie!!
I think I'm more worried about Jamie and Lisa.....ok, make that just Jamie!! She may need some therapy after she gets home.
Jamie...you better check on how much your insurance company covers on that...before you leave! :0)
3/11/2010 8:06:02 PM - 002025703401
Momma don't talk about Lisa the Goob that way.........
3/11/2010 7:21:16 PM - 002067758981
Kay, don't be telling all your secrets!!! lol Oh, I know that you guys will have a great time, Jean. Goobers in San Diego.....hope you have prepared your sisters.
3/11/2010 6:05:56 PM - 002029331419
Hey Mrs Cleaver!! Thanks for sharing your daughter with us in San Diego! She's gonna be full of new stories to share with her..............believe only 1/2 of them.....umm make that 1/4 of them. LOL!!
3/11/2010 4:26:37 PM - 002071401838
I have to vouch for Jamie - she doesn't wear pink or brown.
Lisa - Remember, to get on Linda's good side, when you compliment her, call her Mrs. Cleaver. ;)
3/11/2010 3:28:26 PM - 003017583831
Eddie ( oops, meant Lisa )don't be playing that game with me ...........just make her buy a pink shirt out there if she doesn't bring one!!!! But I'm good...hehehehe
3/11/2010 12:51:16 PM - 002025703401
Pink looks better when you have a tan..... not white and pale!
3/11/2010 4:24:00 AM - 002029331419
Pink.......I bet you look better in it then you think you will!
3/10/2010 11:10:32 PM - 002025703401
You didn't know that about me? hmmmmm........ Just ask my brother or Kay!
3/10/2010 11:08:28 PM - 001024320926
Hi Linda, how are you? You are looking so good lately :)
Jamie!! I can't believe you tattled!!
3/10/2010 10:53:46 PM - 002025703401
MOTHER!!!! Lisa and Jean are making me wear pink in San Diego! :(
3/10/2010 10:34:15 PM - 001024320926
Pink!
3/10/2010 4:42:20 PM - 002025703401
The answer is I don't know.........
3/10/2010 4:30:12 PM - 002029331419
Yeah.... Linda's Questions?
3/10/2010 3:25:13 PM - 002067758981
Do they let the winners know or do you have to go see for yourself?
3/10/2010 12:50:19 PM - 002025703401
The new computer is about 2/3 loaded....... gonna take some time to get up to full speed.
I'm dropping off the fair shots at lunchtime. Fair starts March 25, but I have something else going on. Wonder what that is??? Hummmmmm..............
3/10/2010 12:39:50 AM - 001024320926
Did you get the fair shots organized? I thought the matting made them look even more impressive!! How's the new computer?
3/9/2010 4:35:08 PM - 002025703401
Mo, I got a new laptop last year. This is my desktop in my office. Got it a few months after Hurricane Rita.
This is less fun than filing or shredding......
3/9/2010 3:40:40 PM - 002029331419
How fun to have a new baby coming to the family! :0)
Swapping computer info.........almost as much fun as shredding old files!! But you get a new computer!! yippee
The sun is shining here and they said to enjoy it....rain tomorrow! We're doing the every other day spring storm routine right now. Then all of a sudden....we'll wake up and it's hot and summer is here!
3/9/2010 1:44:43 PM - 002067758981
You are not at work yet, are you? That thing is not old is it, didn't you just get it last summer?
3/9/2010 12:39:14 PM - 002025703401
My work PC is nearly dead, so I'm having to switch over to a new one. YUCK! It's soooo time consuming to reload programs and data. OK..... maybe I'm finished whining...... or NOT!
3/8/2010 4:00:06 PM - 002067758981
Kristi and Jason!! We're so excited about having a new little person in the family.....woooo hooooo!!!
3/8/2010 12:33:51 PM - 002025703401
Kristi!!!!!! I'm so excited! A new baby in the family! I'll have my camera primed & ready to go!!! :)
3/7/2010 9:24:18 PM - 002068870422
Hey!! this is Kristi. Don't go anywhere in August. I am going to need you to take pictures of the baby. Somewhere around the 18th. Jason will be to anxious to even know how to turn his camera on. HA!!!
3/7/2010 5:05:35 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Even though it is a working weekend hope you are finding time to do something you like. Going to the mall can be fun. Good luck at the fair with your photos. My local newspaper holds a photo contest once a month. They pick a different topic and the readers enter. I'm thinking about it. We'll see.
Enjoy your day and I'll visit again during the week. Hope your family is well and you are feeling better too with your allergies. Take care.
3/6/2010 12:49:43 PM - 002025703401
Another working weekend but gonna make a quick trip into the mall while I'm in town. Might need a few new items for San Diego......... :)
Also gotta get my pictures matted this weekend. Kay doesn't know it, but she's gonna help me tonight.
3/3/2010 4:00:00 PM - 001076975951
Greeting Jamie aka President of the Travel fever Club, I sure hope you are feeling better today. I was doing some clean up and rearranging on my gallery site and came across the Share Page and saw you shared the Jamie's Favorites album. THANK YOU so much. I love those photos. They bring happiness to me. I really appreciate it and many thanks for adding them.
have a great day and good lucky on the photo contest. I know people will love your pics.
3/3/2010 3:50:41 PM - 002029331419
Ring Ring Ring
Jamie: "Hello"
San Diego "Yes, we'd like to speak with the elPresidente of the Travel Fever Club we think she's also known as the Head Goober."
Jamie, "Speaking, That's Me ....Right here...ya got me on your first try! Very good...I'm a very busy woman and I my fever has started going up!"
He he!! ... ;0)
3/3/2010 1:36:24 PM - 002025703401
San Diego called????? Well...... got my travel book out and started a packing list....... I'm so ready for a vacation!!! :) :) :)
3/2/2010 8:58:27 PM - 001024320926
San Diego called, they want to know if you're excited about visiting :)
Hi Linda, How's that new computer treating you?
3/2/2010 1:51:27 PM - 002067758981
I know that I am ready for sunshine!!! Weather man said for the first time this YEAR, he's saying it will not rain in the next 5 whole days. Little things like this excite me these days!!! Still too cold and wet for me to dig in flower beds but gives me hope.
3/2/2010 12:35:47 PM - 002025703401
Hey Guys!
I'm still trying to catchup at work from being sick for a week. I may have been there physically but the mind wasn't.......
The pictures have to be dropped off by the 11th. Working on matting them. The fair starts on the 25th.....
Hummmmm, where will I be????? The fair runs thru April 4, so I'm gonna try for that next weekend.
Big Momma (and the rest of us) has spring fever. We are sooooo sick of rain!!! On a positive note, a few warm days and I think the trees will pop open...... it's getting close. Remind us in summer when it's hot and dry how much we hate cold and mud!
3/2/2010 6:46:44 AM - 002065887734
Hi, Jamie. There was a note about something & I commented. It showed up here out of the blue & makes me look more of an idiot than I am. I will have to get to Jean's to find out about the Greek Wedding and cheeto thing. Hmmm.....sounds interesting.
3/2/2010 6:43:59 AM - 002065887734
Nah...........................I'll forget by morning.
3/1/2010 2:55:23 PM - 002029331419
Hi Jamie !! Hi Linda!!
What did you ladies do this weekend? Jamie you sure were quiet!!....Catching up on your naptime, huh?!
Hey...when do you enter your pictures? It's while we're in San Diego?
The Bridal Fair was fun...I had my little camera...we'll see if I got anything worth loading up! ha!!
Ok, have a great day!!
2/27/2010 6:15:48 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Lucky you no snow. I'm sorry to hear you are suffering form your allergies. My daughter Victoria gets them in May and October and it is terrible. I use to get them many moons ago but not anymore. But I see first hand how Victoria suffers. It's no picnic...just misery. Good luck at the fair. Your photos are amazing.
2/27/2010 5:41:36 PM - 002088910291
I love your favorite photos!! They are great shots, and I love all the balloons at the festival! I also love the colorful mushroom photo, and I did recognize the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival shot!! All the photos are gorgeous, I wish I had traveled more in my life, but will go somewhere, soon I hope! I love your new garden section!!!!
2/26/2010 12:44:30 AM - 002025703401

My Big Fat Greek Wedding
Wedding invitations

What's the deal with cheetos? Goobers!!!
2/25/2010 7:41:07 PM - 002025703401
Hi Guys! I'm still fighting what I now think is my allegeries. Spring season is starting early here........
Joanne... Thanks! I'm working on matting my photos for the fair now. No snow here. I'm about 5 hours south of Lisa on the Gulf of Mexico. Just rain and more rain! YUCK!
Hey Jean & Lisa - Want some Cheetos!!!! :)
2/25/2010 7:25:39 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, WOW I went to view your Mother nature page. Beautiful. Love the header, full moon and snow in Texas shots. I like to explore pages on you site that I haven't been to recently. And I always find a surprise or two. Beautiful. I'll visit again and explore another of your amazing pages.
2/25/2010 3:00:13 PM - 002029331419
Got Cheetos?!?!?! hahahahaha!!
2/24/2010 5:21:01 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, How are things shaking? Do you have snow like Lisa? I don't know about you but I am longing for spring... I need sun and warmth. We are expecting 1 foot of snow tomorrow. So dreary.
How it the photo contest going? Did you decide which photo you are entering? You can't go wrong because your photos are just beautiful. Anyway just wanted to stop by to say HI!!
2/24/2010 12:07:41 AM - 001024320926
Hi Linda, Hi Jamie :)
Just stopping to check on things. I can hardly remember all the places I chat it up with you, text, the FB and here, then there's email :) Talk about staying connected. Hope you're feeling better!!!
One month till your birthday, and yes I know I'm older than you!!!!
2/23/2010 5:20:34 PM - 002025703401
Thank you weatherwoman Jean!!!! Rain... rain... and more rain but Lisa has snow! :(
2/23/2010 5:13:18 PM - 002029331419
Morning Linda and Jamie! :0) We woke up to a dusting of snow this morning...and it's headed east...so your temps might drop a little..with some rain. I just wanted to tell you so that just incase your weathermen didn't tell you what was coming...now you know! ha!
2/22/2010 3:22:22 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie!! I'm sure your not back 100% .......but they need you back at work!! Those girls are coming off a road trip and we know what that feels like! LOL!
It was so much fun talking with you on Friday...and I have the sailboat on the piano...pass by it lots everyday! :0)
Saturday was really fun...........but I was sooo tired! I must be getting old....those 12 hr days really take a lot! ha ha!
Now, no more illness so that you are well and ready to go to San Diego!!
2/21/2010 7:44:49 PM - 002025703401
Well it's Sunday and I'm finally starting to feel better...... just in time for work tomorrow.
I'm beginning to think Lisa should have chaperoned the girls. I hope they are making up the stories they are texting me...... :)
Lisa - I was the one croaking like a frog on that phone call Friday. ;)
2/20/2010 4:25:40 AM - 001024320926
I hope you are feeling a little better. I did text with Kim and Darla, looks like I'll be seeing them tomorrow around noon :)
2/20/2010 4:25:01 AM - 001024320926
Jamie I looooooooooooove the Jim Shore sail boat, it is so pretty and well, San Diegoish!!!! I love it, you did a wonderful job on the birthday surprise and the conference all was so fun. I loooved talking with you and Jean, it's just good to hear ya'll. I couldn't tell who was a talking most of the time but I was still happy to hear you both :)
2/19/2010 4:12:37 PM - 002029331419
That is when it's going to be moving your way! Our 'weatherman' keep saying it's an 'unsettled' weather pattern and so they put a little bit of everything up there...just trying to cover their jobs, I think! ha!
Well...since your home sick....at least it's nice outside! ha!
2/19/2010 12:24:06 PM - 002025703401
Rhonda may be stuck south all week! :) We are gonna have decent weather until Sunday...... I guess that's when Jeans snow storm reaches us as rain. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
2/18/2010 2:56:32 PM - 002029331419
We've finally got enough sun to burn off those high clouds we've had for a few days...sunny and beautiful yesterday!! Of course they are calling for snow this Sat night / Sun....hmmm Is this the Lord's way of telling Rhonda she needs to stay until Monday? Maybe?! :0)
2/17/2010 3:26:50 PM - 002025703401
The year before was perfect weather...... and this year on Sunday, the day after the parade, it's was 70 and sunny..... Ya never know! But, we have fun no matter what! :)
Or you could come in late March or in April, for Texas Wildflowers........ :)
2/17/2010 3:21:18 PM - 002029331419
If 2010 was any busier.......I'd have to add another month on my calendar!!
I didn't see any sunshine at the Parade................ ?
2/17/2010 1:07:07 PM - 002025703401
See Jean....... Get past the wedding, Balloon Fiesta, another nasty winter, and then you will definitely be ready for some Texas sunshine! :)
2/17/2010 2:27:33 AM - 002029331419
LOL!! It's on the internet Linda...so it must be true!! haha!!
2/17/2010 12:16:42 AM - 001024320926
Thanks for looking at my snow pictures!!
I was a little worried about you and the coffee high today!! :):)
2/17/2010 12:11:29 AM - 002067758981
Wooooo Hoooo!! I saw it, Jean says she's coming down.
2/16/2010 9:01:36 PM - 002029331419
This seems to just be the longest day....!!
Lisa....it's just around the corner!
Jamie....I'm coming down there....one of these days....!!
2/15/2010 8:10:44 PM - 001024320926

2/15/2010 3:41:34 PM - 001023411097
Robins are outside. Yes, I can't wait for spring. Love the flowers.
2/15/2010 3:09:42 PM - 002025703401
I think we should start planning for Jean to come visit us next February...... I'm gonna start looking for deals!
Update: Next year it will be the first weekend in March. It's always the weekend before Ash Wednesday.
2/15/2010 3:06:29 PM - 002029331419

Really though...looks like a lot of fun, beads and laughs....FANTASTIC!!!!
2/15/2010 2:57:46 PM - 002025703401
For "making" you go? :)
2/15/2010 2:55:03 PM - 002067758981
Fun day!!! Thanks again, Jamie.
2/15/2010 4:10:41 AM - 002025703401
Check out my Mardi Gras Parade page! :)
2/14/2010 5:29:02 PM - 002065887734
Jamie. your site always has some surprises...or maybe they were there & I missed them cause you have so much 'good stuff". Love your Beach page. Wish we could leave comments, cause I forget before I get back here. Loved the Header!!!!!! Wonderful birds!!! I loved the whole page, but remember that pelican on the right. He is so pompous looking & it's a great photo. Loved the "Pirates of the Carribeaan" ship! It was wonderful! (Can you tell I don't know much about boats/ships?) Love visiting here. Thanks.
2/14/2010 4:10:41 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Just stopping by to fill myself with beauty and visiting your 2 sites does that to me. I look forward to your Crystal Beach Mardi Gras Parade page. It is going to be fabulous...I just know it. Have a great day and take care.
2/14/2010 2:47:15 PM - 002067758981
Good I'll be checking back.
2/14/2010 2:45:34 PM - 002025703401
We had a blast yesterday at the Crystal Beach Mardi Gras Parade! Working on a new page.
2/14/2010 3:32:20 AM - 002029331419
What pics did you decide on for the Fair??
2/12/2010 9:17:29 PM - 002025703401
The countdown clocks are MIA today.......
2/12/2010 9:02:42 PM - 002029331419
Where's your Countdown clocks???
2/12/2010 9:02:17 PM - 002029331419
Hi Linda! Glad you stopped by! Jamie is being entertained with what Kim & Darla has been shopping for! :0) Fun!
Have a great weekend!
2/10/2010 9:49:48 PM - 002029331419
Lisa!! Are you going to make this a Drug Free flight?...You've done AMAZING your last two filghts and they were a LOT longer then this one will be!! :0)
2/10/2010 5:55:37 PM - 002067758981
Who's going to take pictures of Lisa grabbing seats, marshall on board may be watching, girls!!!
2/9/2010 11:21:46 PM - 002025703401
Could be very scary with Lisa, Jean and Kay on the same flight!
2/9/2010 6:03:10 PM - 001024320926
That's right I have to grab seats.......................LOL!! Airplane seats that is!!!
2/9/2010 5:58:35 PM - 002029331419
....aaahhh Travel....sweeet sweeet travel!! Smack!! Who woke me up!! Oh yeah...we still have about 6 weeks before we standing at the loading gate!! LOL!!

2/9/2010 5:04:21 PM - 002025703401
The Goobs are traveling again!!!! :) :) :)
And snakes in the chicken eggs....... {I get the shakes thinking about it}
2/9/2010 5:01:30 PM - 001024320926
I have a plane ticket to San Diego!!!!!!!
2/9/2010 5:00:51 PM - 001024320926
The scream, drop and run is exactly why I will never own hogs!! Snakes love the hog pens, I still can remember all those scream, drop and runssssssssssssssssssssssss all the way to the house, still screaming!! They would make me go back down there and finish feeding the hogs, I would talk about all the things I would never do again as I marched back out to the hog pens, terrified!! My mom laughs still to this day but I don't, I never thought it was funny!!! IS my B/P up, deep breath!!
2/9/2010 4:51:51 PM - 002025703401
We have varmits and snakes in Texas!!! BIG ones!!!! I've done the scream, drop, and run too!!!
2/9/2010 3:41:44 PM - 002029331419
...Well.......it's a good thing that Jamie And Linda know where we draw the line, Lisa!! hahaha!! (I do have Boundries!)
Stakes...Nets...String...necks with the rest of the chicken missing (Hopefully, being cooked for supper in case this Crabbing adventure is a bust!)....I'm ok with that!! :0) Ok, we're in...
Varmit....haha...Lisa said Varmits!! Is ElleMay a distant cousin?...:0)
Screaming, dropping and running...yeah...I can do without that form of excersise..! LOL!!
2/9/2010 2:36:08 PM - 001024320926
No deep dark places for me either Jean :) I grew up farming, running your hand in a deep, dark place often found a snake or not so friendly varmit, noooo thanks!! I've done the scream, drop everything and run dance enough in my lifetime!!
2/9/2010 2:04:34 PM - 002067758981
Jean, I THINK SHE HAD YOU GOING FOR A WHILE,,,,HEHEHEHE
2/9/2010 12:29:56 PM - 002025703401
I never said Jamie would do it! That's what we have Big Daddy for.......... :)
Crabbing - Stakes, string, net, and chicken necks......... no hands in the water!!! Maybe we can get Dad to take us out in the boat. You guys would love it.
2/9/2010 4:32:20 AM - 002029331419
You would do that!!?? Stick yur hand in muddy yucky water...???? Nuh uh!!!
2/8/2010 10:19:02 PM - 002067758981
hehehehehe
2/8/2010 10:13:06 PM - 002025703401
We would only do that for flounder or frogs....... :)
2/8/2010 10:04:29 PM - 002029331419
Just so you know.............I won't stick my hand iin dark muccy water...that I cannot see what's down there!..I'm just saying!
2/8/2010 4:40:25 PM - 002025703401
You two don't know what you've signed up for......... hehehehehehe :)
2/8/2010 2:52:39 PM - 002029331419
Jamie.. I can be crabby, I love eating crab, I can usually spot a crab in an aquarium, I've cooked crab...but I'd have to say ...I've never Been Crabbing..... Let's Go! :0)
2/8/2010 12:14:26 PM - 002025703401
I hate to destroy our "party" image, but the Mardi Gras parade we go to is very "clean". You really don't have to do a whole lot for beads...... :)
Jean - Have you ever been crabbing? Lisa hasn't so I've gotta take her....... Southeast Texas style! :)
2/8/2010 11:18:53 AM - 002065887734
Love whoever is kissing the dolphin. That's soooooo cute! Had to come back to tell you love the header on your beach page. It's great! Love the beach page! it's great too! I love pelicans for some reason. Better watch your mom. the only people I know who get that many Mardi Gras beads are usually doing something (I would Never say what) to get the attention of the bead throwers...She'd be fun to go with, I have the feeling you all would!
2/8/2010 4:52:27 AM - 001024320926
When I come to visit I want fried shrimp and I want to go crabbing!!!
2/8/2010 4:29:57 AM - 002029331419
Hey Ladies!!
Ha! I had crab on Friday night! Yep...and they messed up my order so I got extra coconut shrimp and crab...yummo!!

Ok, well...I'm headed to bed...catch yas tomorrow!!
2/7/2010 7:16:26 PM - 002067758981
I beg to differ, I know that did not happen.......BEAT ya'll fair and square........ hehehehee
2/7/2010 1:50:42 PM - 002025703401
Crab Report Update: We had king crab and snow crab....... YUMMO!!!!!! The girls "let" Mrs. Cleaver beat them at cards too..................... :)
2/6/2010 8:48:29 PM - 002067758981
I think thats a great idea!!!
2/6/2010 3:09:06 PM - 002025703401
That's right...... it's crab night again! Our excuse, Gina's birthday was last week......... :)
Kay thinks we need extras so that we can use the crabmeat in the shrimp stuff! Yummo!!!! :)
2/6/2010 2:42:16 PM - 002067758981
Having crab night tonight, Jean. Wish you were closer!!!
2/6/2010 4:35:11 AM - 001024320926
Yummo!! I ate left over spagetti and it was pretty good. I wasn't real hungry, good thing. Kyleigh had already eaten pizza :) She's running around putting lotion on all her baby dolls ;)
2/6/2010 3:53:26 AM - 002025703401
Chicken gumbo was very good! :)
2/5/2010 2:42:28 PM - 002029331419

Lisa, she sent me the first three days of trip on paper.
1/28/2010 6:58:56 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, How are the Quebec plans coming along?
1/27/2010 4:03:44 PM - 002025703401
Jean's bill is earning interest in the mean time. Do you realize Lisa owes me a Starbucks store? :)
I think Mom is excited about the new computer.......... LOL!!!!
1/27/2010 4:01:17 PM - 002067758981

And you guys wonder where I get the "GO" from..............
1/24/2010 5:38:34 PM - 002067758981
I like Rhonda's idea, Jamie. Next year, we need goob trip to Colorado!!!!
1/24/2010 5:20:16 PM - 001023411097
I can see you love to travel and I think that you should go as much as possible. We did that for 10 years, we took at least 3 trips a year. Slow now because my mom is not in the great of health. Thats ok, I just can enjoy your photos and your trips. Hugs bj
1/24/2010 3:25:18 PM - 002059624475
Had to look at the Colorado 2005 page. Don't you think it's time to come back to Colorado??!! That would be a fun Goober trip too. We could do some very fun things and see places you haven't seen before!
1/24/2010 3:20:18 PM - 002059624475
Yo, Goob......love your countdowns on this page. Let's us know when you're going where this year! I'm thinkin' I might have to do the balloon festival this year - my ears were ringing the whole time and Jean needs me!! ha :)
1/24/2010 2:56:05 PM - 002025703401
Goob's stomach is fine, just a little draggy today. Still working on walking tour of Quebec....... :)

Hi there Goob!! Just checking in before I start texting with you for the day :) How's the stomach doing? How's the Quebec list coming along? You know I sure hope we come up with some great tickets to SAn Diego because I am starting to jones to go somewhere!!! May have to make a Stockyards trip again now that the weather is good, or good for now!

Cheri, so glad you two have been able to enjoy a few days at home!!! Yes, my girl can take some great pictures. So glad that we can share some of our memories with shutterfly friends.
1/23/2010 6:31:26 PM - 000093706714
Hey Miss Jamie, Linda & Friends......we have been home a few days and I am indulging myself with a little SF visit time. Feels VERY, VERY good. I am going to poke around a little and see what trouble you all have been getting into.
Linda, I am glancing at the scrolling 'Favorite Photos' as I am typing (above this comment box)..........so many STUNNING images girl. WOW! Absolute beautiful photography. G'SAM!
1/21/2010 8:33:29 PM - 002067758981
Jean, she asked me to start walking this morning........that tells me she's going to drag me around on our cruise.....too far away for me to get too excited yet, but I am getting out more now that the weather is so nice for the next couple of days. More than ready for spring so I can start fooling with my flowers.
1/21/2010 5:01:49 PM - 002029331419
No....but I can't wait to see your pics of the city!! :0)
1/21/2010 12:12:43 PM - 002025703401
Since Jean says I'm too distracted........ Have any of you ever been to Quebec?
1/21/2010 2:54:02 AM - 002025703401
Attention Customers: The management of this site is currently busy with end of year, start of a new year, taxes, and bad/slow business. The management is working on NOT being EXTREMELY cranky...........
Have a nice day!!!! 
(Also busy doing a little cruise planning as stress relief on the side.......)
1/20/2010 9:21:20 PM - 002029331419
I know you do!!....but if you still don't come back and post for like 3 days...I wonder where you've been - or - what the current distraction is!!
I just might have to report this to the Shutterfly Site Police for neglecting to connect with your customers...I mean commenters.... hehe.... :0)
1/20/2010 3:33:41 PM - 002025703401
U-Turn....... Lisa & I both get email when you leave a message on either of our sites. We are always watching you!!!! :)
1/20/2010 3:26:00 PM - 002029331419
Yea!!! It is fixed!! :0)
Ok...I know you get busy...but it feels weird when I keep seeing my picture/posts on your page and your no where around! LOL! So...I had to ask if you at least drop by -on your site- to see that I've been here checking on you and Linda! :0)
Linda! Nice to see you today! :0)
1/19/2010 6:12:55 PM - 002067758981
Jean, even I don't hear from her much in January. So we better not pick on her too bad. hehehe
What ever the problem was , seems to be fixed today.
1/19/2010 3:47:22 PM - 002025703401
I do..... just sooooo busy at work. Yuck!!! Comment problem must be Shutterfly.
1/19/2010 3:41:20 PM - 002029331419
Hey...don't you come over here anymore?
It looks like the comments are hiding behind the pictures...do you see that, or is it just me?
1/18/2010 4:23:47 AM - 002029331419
LOL!!! Jamie! I'm so glad for your Good new Bad new Report!! :0)
1/17/2010 10:40:47 PM - 002067758981

Hey Jamie...I knew that you'd want to make a list of something!! ha! There it is! Whew...now I'm not disappointed! LOL!!
1/13/2010 8:00:58 PM - 002025703401
Pipe Update:
Dad has fixed the broken pipe, but we are still waiting for the room to dry out before testing the electrical stuff. Something about water and electricity not mixing.....................
1/13/2010 7:40:21 PM - 002025703401
Lets make a list.........
Every trip has to have:
1) Camera in the face shot.
2) Long arm group shot.
3) Leaning shot.
4) Goober shot(s).
5) Goober video(s).
1/13/2010 7:26:06 PM - 001024320926

1/13/2010 7:24:36 PM - 001024320926
Hi Goob, it's in the 50's here and feeling pretty good outside. Supposed to rain here tomorrow and Friday though. How are the frozen pipes? Did your dad get it sorted out for ya?
1/12/2010 4:37:52 PM - 002029331419
Don't worrry Linda....if she has a couple of piles...It'll give her something to do on the weekend! :0)
Ya know BGP's are a must! LOL!! You can get by with pants and tops (And there's always Linda's closet) but
the BGP's/Flags are a must! ah hahahaha!!
One of the things that Kay likes about house sitting for us ....we have a washer and dryer...right there! She makes sure her laundry is totally caught up the day before we get home! ha! And our refridgerator and cable......
1/12/2010 3:14:59 PM - 002025703401
Don't worry Momma......
I'm not running out of "Flags" yet! You know I have enough clothes and towels to last at least a month. :)
1/12/2010 2:51:40 PM - 002067758981
Jamie Leigh, you and your 'Big Girl Panties' ( Jean's word's ) are in trouble......don't make me say what you call them. hehehe No kidding, if you need to wash or you need for me to come get them til we make sure everything's working in laundry room, just say so. I can sure take care of them.
1/12/2010 2:20:09 AM - 002025703401
Dang! Mom's on to me......... let the clothes pile up and she'll do them. LOL!!!!
1/12/2010 1:20:53 AM - 002067758981
Jean, I did offer to do the clothes......she knows it drives me crazy to not keep up.......doesn't seem to bother her at all. I must have done something wrong in her training. lol
1/11/2010 8:11:21 PM - 002029331419
It's on the Internet...so it must be true!! LOL!!!! :0)
Wow...way to rope your poor Mother into doing your Big Girl Panties and Laundry. ... I bet if your Dad looks really close he'll see where a screw driver was pried into that pipe!! "Gosh Dad! My Laundry Pipe broke....."
1/11/2010 3:25:53 PM - 002025703401
Pipes did not freeze last night!!!!! Warming up today finally, so no more hard freezes. Just gotta fix the laundry room or Mom will be doing my laundry.......hummmmmmmm......... that's a good idea!
Yes Jean, I wore my Balloon Fiesta/Alaska clothes........ :) And someone is telling tales on FB...... :0)
It's too cold to walk...... Hope to restart soon!
What's New page - I must confess...... I stole the idea from Lisa! :)
Toni - Did you know I like crab? and cruising?????? :)

Hey Jamie!! This evening when Steve and I were working in the yard...after he ran the sprinklers to give our yard a little winter drink...then we started a little fire in our fire pit to burn some extra branches that have fallen these last few months. I was just thinking ....wow...it's warmer here then in Vidor!! You have your Balloon Fiesta/ Alaska clothes on? ;0)
Linda...It'll be up in the 50's here tomorrow...I do hope that it starts to warm up down there!
**FB comments... I missed you too Jamie!! :0) hehe!!
Hey are you walking in the mornings now....? It's too crazy cold for you!!
1/11/2010 12:53:30 AM - 002067758981

1/10/2010 2:17:41 PM - 002025703401
Kim..... Email Shutterfly support.
Busted pipe yesterday in the laundry room. Luckily, the bust was after a shutoff value in the room, so I didn't have to shutoff the whole house. We are letting the room dry out before my dad works on it today....... I had a geyser!
Update: Hard freeze again last night. Dripped water all night. It just froze up after daylight this morning. Hope no more pipes bust........... Waiting........ :(
1/10/2010 5:09:53 AM - 002049843840

1/4/2010 6:10:47 AM - 002065887734
Love your site, but I always do. I need your help. I went to the Crabby page. I have never had crabs worth working for...(Please don't hate me.) I'm in Midwest & think we are getting little bitty things from your photos. Anytime you want to give me some tips, I'd appreciate it. I love seafood...it's my favorite. Know I'd love crabs if I could get any meat out of one. HELP! Thanks, Barb
1/4/2010 12:51:50 AM - 002029331419

I LOVE THE SPECIAL EFFECTS YOU ADDED! VERY COOL! YOUR CHRISTMAS & AUTUMN PAGES ARE AWESOME! HOPE YOU HAVE A HAPPY & HEALTHY NEW YEAR! :)
12/31/2009 4:16:45 PM - 002029331419
10 years ago...my first year at Honeywell.....'Shut everything down and unplug it too!"....jeesh! We bought an extra loaf of bread, PB & Jelly...and filled the tub up with water. Ha!!
Younger in years.....When your over 30....It has to be in 10's or it doesn't really count...your NOT 10 years younger then us! :0)
12/31/2009 4:11:04 PM - 002025703401
10 years ago, I was the system administrator and Y2K was my life................. It's funny NOW!!! :)
What's this about factoring our ages............. I'm younger than you guys!!!! :)
Jean is gonna abandon us until MID-JANUARY!!! :(
12/31/2009 3:56:28 PM - 002029331419
I am not off until Mid- January....I'm not updating my site again until Mid-January! It'll give me something to look forward to doing! LOL!
Yea Lisa for kicking the fever!
12/31/2009 3:53:45 PM - 001024320926
Hey Jean did you notice that you and I were on her list alot :) I looooved the list! Hoping that the list is longer in the coming year. Just think a mere 10 years ago we were all fretting about what was going to happen to everything at the stroke of midnight on New Years. Y2K!! That was 10 years ago!! Time is sailing by, factor in our ages and it seems to excelerate the passing of time more!
Linda thanks for checking on me this morning, I'm amoug the living, still sick but no fever and yep I'm at work. I so much to do before tomorrow.

Says the person who is off until MID-JANUARY.................. :)
12/31/2009 3:29:20 PM - 002029331419
You did all of that this year? You must be exhausted!! LOL!!
12/31/2009 11:54:28 AM - 002025703401
Can you believe it's the last day of the year..... where did 2009 go?
A quick review of 2009:
- Our beloved beach area was almost destroyed by Hurricane Ike. 
In 2009, we saw great efforts to rebuild..........
- Mom retired from banking in March.
- I found a photography site to display my pictures in April.... who would have ever thought Shutterfly would become my obsession!
- Got an iPhone.... who would have ever thought I could become so attached! Thanks to Lisa, my iPhone buddy....
- Kay, Mom, and I went on our first trip to Alaska in August. AWESOME!!! We hope to return someday.....
- Found a Southwest deal on tickets to the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta for Mom and I. Took a chance on meeting Shutterfly buddies, Lisa and Jean. :O) Good news...... they are not psychos..... just Crazy Goobers!!! It was like meeting old friends! We talked, laughed, ate, took pictures, talked, and laughed....... enough said. :)
- In November, we planned a little pre-Christmas weekend trip to Fredericksburg. It ballooned into another Shutterfly weekend with 10 ladies. Jean flew in just to see if Albuquerque was a fluke...... It wasn't!!! Once again, we talked, laughed, ate, took pictures, talked and laughed............. :)
- Wish I had a dollar for every time the word Goober was used in 2009...... Can anyone come up with a better term? 
Wonder who started it? Maybe some evil pot stirrers.....
Looking forward to my plans for 2010:
- Meet Jean and company in San Diego.....
- Wildflower tour around the Texas Hill Country.....
- Return to Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta.....
- East coast cruise with Mom.......
I've had a blast with my Shutterfly buddies in 2009 and can't wait to see what adventures we can find in 2010!!!
12/30/2009 8:33:03 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, May you have a wonderful New Year's Eve whatever your plans are.... be safe, have fun, and wishing you many more adventures and open roads for you and you Mom. God bless and I'll catch you next year.

Jamie........just returned from New Orleans and catching up on all the mail. I opened your card with all the pics and felt your sweet arms around me! Thanks so much for keeping me in your thoughts. We had a WONDERFUL time in New Orleans and with just a few exceptions, both Rene' and I managed to keep our thoughts away from medical treatments, hospitals, etc. It felt REALLY good.
We are back in the hospital - but feel rested and have a renewed sense of faith and trust. I might be out of pocket for still a while longer.........but all of you are never far from my thoughts. Best wishes to you and your family.......and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Hugs
Cheri

Love the new Dixie video.
12/21/2009 6:50:20 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Hope you had a good weekend baking and bonding. I read you are glad to be back at work, LOL
Thanks so much for your 2 cents worth regarding the canceled sweet 16 for my niece. I am truly so heartbroken we didn't make it.
The problem was coming home which would have been well into 11 pm hour and it would have snowed for several hours by the time we had to drive home. I mean JFK airport canceled over 200 flights. There were people saying that they most likely couldn't get flights out for 1 more day maybe 2. And the weather reports were saying their town would have received twice as much as NYC. Now I just couldn't chance getting stuck on the highway...the weather guy on TV said please stay home and don't drive. I am glad you didn't think I was being unreasonable, and I'm not the crazy one.
Jamie I do have snow photos on my gallery site if you want to get a look. Have a great day.
12/21/2009 5:57:41 PM - 002029331419
What color were the Christmas Cookies!!?? LOL!!
12/21/2009 5:27:43 PM - 002025703401
Office Christmas lunch today but so far (as usual) we've been eating all morning............
12/21/2009 4:57:35 AM - 001023411097
Hi Jamie, I just love the hats you girls have on in the header! Hee Hee.... Merry Christmas to you and I hope this week of Christmas is just wonderful. Filled with joy and laughter. We had our family Christmas here this weekend and it was so much fun. We had 18 total with 7 grandkids and gifts everywhere! I wish you all the best and just a note..... Connie is having surgery tomorrow, remember her in your prayers. Lisa or I will have a update tomorrow evening. hugs bj
12/21/2009 3:56:55 AM - 002029331419
Great Video and pictures Jamie!!
I've been baking stuff all afternoon and just now had a chance to sit and check on a few of the sites! Whew...!! Ok...Dishes are yelling my name...catch you tomorrow! :-)

Jamie love the Christmas is for Family page.....BEAUTIFUL!!!! I love the sign about being "normal" I could use a sign like that. LOL Love the photos from Christmas past. Enjoy your day. By the way we got 10 inches or so of snow. At least we dug ourselves out of the driveway. I think we may go for Chinese later...I need to get out of the house. Be well and see you on the sites.
12/20/2009 6:12:19 PM - 001024320926

12/19/2009 1:05:43 PM - 002025703401
Rhonda..... Maybe now you can convince your family that you're traveling to meet a group of ladies who are NOT complete psychos! Well..... maybe I shouldn't go that far...... Lisa is crazy but harmless! :)
12/18/2009 11:16:30 PM - 002035648808
Some little Elf sent the most wonderful, I believe Goobers in Texas pictures and a Christmas Card. Thank you so much Jamie. Larry and I got a kick out of the pictures. He said, so that's who you hang out with on the internet huh! LOL! I really did enjoy getting them in the mail:)
12/18/2009 9:10:27 PM - 002025703401
Called Kay.... She really did go get some "special" colors. Hopefully, mother will put Kay in charge of the oven...... {another deep sigh}
12/18/2009 8:41:34 PM - 002029331419
Can't wait! :0)
12/18/2009 8:32:57 PM - 002025703401
I think there will be a video report of this by Monday........ {deep sigh}
12/18/2009 7:55:33 PM - 002071401838
OK girls.....Don't tell Jamie......I went to Walmart at lunch and bought supplies to make "special" Christmas cookies. I'll make Jamie take pictures of them so you can see how special they are!!!
12/18/2009 5:32:53 PM - 001024320926
Kay we're depending on you for all the 'special colors', I'll know it's happening because Jamie will text me and call me names :)
12/18/2009 5:28:48 PM - 001024320926
OMGosh!! someone save me from myself!!!!

Hey girls, going of be busy today with my hands in cookie dough!!! Jamie must have sent ten pounds of pecans and walnuts for me to chop for Saturday bakeoff day. I think they want me to make dough and they are in charge of cutting and decorating......I am telling you girls it's FUN to see if we can get Jamie freaked out early in the process. Kay is very good at this.....hehehe I'll be making lemon bars, tiny pecan pies and sugar cookie dough today.
12/18/2009 12:53:53 AM - 002020640084

12/17/2009 9:42:18 PM - 002025703401
My blood pressure is on the rise.........................
12/17/2009 9:14:39 PM - 002071401838
FYI - I will make sure there are plenty of "special" colors on the Christmas cookies.
12/17/2009 9:06:40 PM - 002049843840
Jamie you need to lighten up my friend......I think green Santa's would be great!! And red stars, blue wreaths, purple Christmas trees....I could keep going ya know......LOL!!
12/17/2009 9:00:48 PM - 002025703401
Red, Green, and maybe yellow on the stars. No red trees or green santas!!! It really does freak me out.... I'm the Sugar Cookie Police!!! :)
12/17/2009 8:51:20 PM - 002025703401

12/17/2009 12:52:16 PM - 002067758981
Hey girls, the MAN is home with two deer!!! I made little Orange Slice cakes (my fav) and prune cakes( his fav) while he was gone, they are in freezer til Christmas......
Jamie, I caught him just in time, he was getting into the orange slice candy that I had chopped for your Amber cookies.
Have all presents wrapped that are in the house so far. Ready to chop pecans and walnuts for other recipes we're doing this week-end. Going to mix and chill sugar cookie dough for Saturday baking with the girls and keep going thur recipes to see what else I can whip up. Sure do wish you gals were closer, we are having steamed crabs for dinner Saturday and I could use some help. Jamie and Kay will be here and its really fun to see what they come up with. Jamie will have to take pictures of their creations...hehehe
Jean, I like the new picture!!! Lisa, internet is working this week....just been BUSY, haven't even been on facebook that much.
12/16/2009 9:52:15 PM - 002025703401

Dad is hunting so Mom has been busy....... I don't know what she is doing! Dad is coming home today..... :)
My chair does put a spell on me!!! I remember 8pm but wokeup around 1:30......
I have lots of tape!!! Come on over! :)
12/16/2009 6:42:08 PM - 001024320926
Me too Jean, I love to wrap, that's odd isn't it considering I didn't wrap your gift that I gave you in Fredericksburg :):) That was a time issue. So lame............
Jamie is this baking weekend?
Where's Linda? How's she doing? Still having internet issues?
12/16/2009 5:35:58 PM - 002029331419
That chair just puts a spell on you and your asleep!.... But if your resting...that's what ya need! I would totally come and wrap with you!! I love doing that stuff....hand me the tape will you!!?? Oh! You got us our own...very handy of you! :0)
12/16/2009 1:34:48 PM - 002025703401
Fell asleep in the chair last night...... No Hallmark or present wrapping done. Who want's to come wrap for me???? :)
12/15/2009 8:18:48 PM - 002029331419
Hey Girlies!
Linda...have fun with the girls and doing what you want to! :0)
Jamie - I also saw that a lot of the ships couldn't get OUT of Galveston because of the fog! Really bad down there! I hope Starla makes it back in!
Sorry to hear that the Paperwork Monster is hanging out in your offices! Mine is folders...folders...folders.....
Hang in there Girls....Hallmark will be on tonight to take your office woes away! :0)
How fun for Kyleigh and Lisa! We had Hannah last night while the kids did errands and shopping for her for Christmas. She forgot to bring her Jammies with her - but when her Mom realized that Hannah wouldn't make it home awake and would be asleep for the night...they went out and got some with price tags on and just put those on her!! hehe....
Life is pretty simple when your 2 ft tall! haha
12/15/2009 7:16:47 PM - 002025703401
It's in the 50's here but the front is blowing in now. I bet the Gulf of Mexico is a rockin and a rollin for Starla....
I'm losing the battle with this paperwork, still behind from when I was sick. Semi-monthly payroll goes out today, so I had to take work home with me last night. Payroll is done but I may have to close my office door this afternoon too! YUCK!!! I keep trying to remind myself that it pays the bills and allows me to travel with my Goober Buddies!!! :)
12/15/2009 6:34:49 PM - 001024320926
Hi there Goob!! How's you day going? I am just now dong the lunch thing. My day isn't going so well, I am may never get caught up. I'm thinking I may have to shut my door this afternoon, I dont' do that often. Good news though, Meagan called and wants me to watch Kyleigh tonight while she works. Love the little punkin!! It's cold outside again, yea!!
12/15/2009 6:24:22 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, I'm so glad you are feeling better. How was your weekend? I took a look at your Christmas page and I really like it. Well done!!
I have some new photos taken yesterday when I went into NYC. It's on my gallery site so stop on by. Hope you like them. It was cold yesterday, cloudy and busy as always walking the streets of NYC. I'm just glad it didn't rain. Have a great day and take care.
12/15/2009 1:29:26 PM - 002067758981
Glad to see everyone back to normal, that is as normal as possible......I'm just saying!! Been busy here, Joe's gone hunting again, so it's just me and the girls. We've been 'BUSY'.
Jean, hope you enjoyed your trip. Bummer about Monday's, don't know of anyone still working that likes them.
Jamie, good job on video, turned out really good. Only thing that would have made it more fun would've been having Lisa Marie dancing to the music but don't think Baptist Church would have enjoyed it like we would have...hehehehe
12/15/2009 3:33:28 AM - 002029331419
Lisa LOL!!!... Correct Postage!! haha
Jamie...Christmas Secrets?!?! Oooo Doesn't that sound like a great title for a Hallmark Movie!!? hehe
Will it make anyone feel better to know that I'll be standing in line at the post office too!?! No...Ok, well..I tried!!
12/15/2009 3:00:10 AM - 002025703401
Nosy Missy....... wants to know everything!!! You guys ever hear of secrets??? Christmas Secrets...... :)
12/15/2009 2:36:51 AM - 002049843840
Why do you have to wait till Monday to mail your packages?? Is there something special in them??
12/15/2009 12:03:20 AM - 001024320926
I hear on the radio that the 21st is the last day to mail packages and get them there before Christmas, so if you mail Monday (which is the 21st) you should be good to go :)
12/14/2009 11:51:14 PM - 002025703401
Lists always help! :) I've got a couple more packages to mail, but won't be able to mail until next Monday. I'll just have to take my chances............. :)
12/14/2009 11:32:26 PM - 001024320926
Ok I made my list and I actually think it helped me to do that..............sigh, LOL!! I have a bunch of things to do before the 21st, that's the last day to mail (with the proper postage) to get there before Christmas. So I will definitely be in line Friday or Saturday at the post office.
12/14/2009 8:34:30 PM - 002029331419
The video is really fun...I watched it again! There are a few places that seem to have some pretty big light shows that we are going to go check out...but nothing that has their own radio station! :0) Next week...if we have a warmer day I want to go see the River of Lights at the Botanical Gardens...it's supposed to be really fun, never been before...a good year to go!
Back to work......ugh......
12/14/2009 5:10:10 PM - 001024320926
Love the video Jamie!! I'm back in the office now. Love the whole Christmas page, the Radkos are great!! Love the Christmas trees past.
12/14/2009 4:54:41 PM - 002025703401
Hey Jean! You know me well..... I currently have three lists! :)
12/14/2009 3:32:41 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie!! I'm back....in the office that is! ugh. Oh well...it keeps me traveling ...and I love that! :0)
Glad your feeling better....now get hopping and caught up on your holiday to do list! .. We know how much you love those lists!
We had a good time in San Antonio....the cold weather hit when we got off the plane and was clearing out on our way to the airport yesterday....Oh well...we made the best of it! We did everything that we wanted to around the downtown area - as I told Steve the next time we fly in here it is to get a car and head to the wild flowers! :0)
Just stopping by to say Hi !! Why is it so hard to get back to work.....? hehe
12/14/2009 12:11:58 PM - 002025703401
Hey Joey! I had a nasty stomach flu bug..... YUCK!!!! I'm better now but it put me behind on my holiday shopping and everything else.
12/13/2009 7:35:19 PM - 000074469281
Jamie were you sick or did you mean the computer virus?? YES, I would love to winter in TX!! We are pretty used to these wicked temps but because Nov was so nice it was quite the shock come Dec 1 and it was in the teens. Its a bit chilly willy but if you dress so you can barely move, then you will be just fine!
That would have been a hoot if Lisa put a hat out to get change. Wouldn't that have been a riot if people dropped dollars. One never knows. Have a good day!!
I'm bringing my camera to the grocery store tomorrow and taking pictures of everything - maybe even the store clerks!! haha - I need to get a Santa hat!!
12/13/2009 7:16:25 PM - 002065887734
I'm sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. You were sick just a while ago weren't you? Maybe it didn't go away...all the way? Anyway, hope you are feeling great soon, especially with all the holiday stuff it sounds like you like doing. Our weather is yucky right now but my stomach is upset (it's not going to be the beginnings of flu!). Love your site so much. Will be back soon. Your header is gorgeous AND hilarious. I think it would be hard to accomplish that! My best, Barbara Jean
12/13/2009 4:46:34 PM - 002025703401
Good Morning Joanne! I'm finally starting to feel better but the virus has put me behind in all my holiday plans.
Last night, we had plans to drive around looking at Christmas lights and shop for holiday baking supplies. Well, the fog was so thick it was like rain. We did stop at a church north of town that has a super light show set to music. It was sooo great we are planning to go back next weekend. Hope the weather is better!
12/13/2009 3:28:09 PM - 001076975951
Jamie,
How are you feeling? Hope by now you are better. How is your weekend going? Hope you family is well too.
I think I'll have to explore your site this week to see what is new.
I am planning on going into Manhattan this week and go see the tree. I'll bring my camera of course so stop on by later in the week to see my pictures. Have a wonderful Sunday and I'll visit real soon.
12/12/2009 3:55:39 PM - 002025703401
Joey is a goober and a hoot!!! Gotta love her!!!
Wanna go Radko shopping???? We would get in trouble! :)
12/12/2009 3:38:34 PM - 001024320926
Oh the Radkos are on my Christmas page and they look mahvlous dahling!!
12/12/2009 3:37:29 PM - 001024320926
Joey is cracking my up about the video, I still can't believe I sang that in front of a sideway full of people. Should have put my hat out for quarters.........LOL!!!!! I'm going to watch it again today for kicks!
I hope to get my tree to working today, starting to depress me a little. I always have my tree up first and take it down last, I so want to pull all my ornaments out to decorate!!
12/11/2009 6:11:18 AM - 000074469281
I just read below and i have ordered my stamps before, but didn't have time to wait for them to come in mail and I was at Hobby Lobby twice this week - now there is where I should have been taking photos!!
Gotta run,hope your computer is up and running. Thats such a pain.
12/11/2009 6:07:49 AM - 000074469281
Fabulous Texas Goober Page!!! Did you all plan to wear red? Love it. I think you sent me the video, but i think it got lost in my emais. Glad I came here! Terrific video. It looks like you all had such a BLAST. I like Lisa singing and the guy on the end saying 'hey that lady has a pretty good voice'!! You'd think everyone would have chimed in! Too much fun. I love all the poinsettia's. I'd be in hog heaven being able to take pictures like that. I always feel like a dork when I pull out my camera in a grocery store where they have flowers and food (LOL) - but they are lined up so nice - what a great photo op! I'll no longer feel like a dork!
I also love the holiday lights you captured. I can never get my photos to look that nice. It was a joy to view your page. I love the postcard photos! Those are a riot! And the Shutterfly bags!! So much fun!!!
Its 4 degrees here - a bit chilly. I'm gonna crawl in bed and dream of Texas!!
Merry Christmas Jamie!!
12/11/2009 5:45:49 AM - 000074469281
Oh my gosh Jamie, your headers are awesoem. Love all of you in hats and the big cut-out cardboard!! FUN!
I just saw the pictures on Jean's page. I have been awful at visiting sites, but I'm planning to catch up soon.
Wishing you & your family a wonderful Christma in case I dont get back before.
Ho Ho Ho! Going to check out your Texas page.
I love how you have all your cruise countdowns on here - too much fun!!
12/10/2009 1:16:43 PM - 002067758981
Internet up!!! Jean, have a good time, I know you and Steve will have fun in Texas.
12/9/2009 8:59:37 PM - 002029331419
Early flight tomorrow...so tonight will be my last 'see ya's until Sunday'....
Hope you can catch that movie...if you haven't already seen it!
Gosh...I'm not drinking coffee either.... ;0) yes, I had to add that.
Sun out, Blue Skies..I'll take it!
Got my cards yesterday....can't wait to get them out! :0) That'll be next week! (You Order Stamps?)
Maybe you could bribe one of those teenage cousins to come and help you?
Linda...missing you Lady...haven't seen much of you around...but if your Techy daughter will come over and
get you up and running...there's some nice pics of you on my Texas Page! :0)
12/9/2009 7:39:15 PM - 002025703401
Gonna make a list.....
- A week tonight...... still feeling kinda achy and exhausted.
- I was ahead in my shopping..... now I'm behind..... go figure that!
- Still not drinking coffee....
- Its in the 50's..... cool, dry air! Beautiful day! That's why I went to Hobby Lobby at lunch with Marcia. Now, I'm tired.... Hobby Lobby was a mad house. Took us 30 minutes to check out.
- I did work on my address list for Christmas cards last night and ordered Christmas stamps from the post office yesterday.
- Still haven't wrapped anything yet. Didn't want to put virus germs on the gifts..... and I hate to wrap!
12/9/2009 7:27:58 PM - 001024320926
It was very nice to hear you were in a good mood this morning :):) Did you make it to Hobby Lobby?
12/9/2009 7:27:27 PM - 001024320926
I need a Starbucks!! I need it I tell ya!! Maybe tomorrow before work I'll stop for one.
Got my Christmas cards in the mail today!! Woohoo!! can't wait to mail them! Love Christmas mail :)
How's the weather there today, still muggy? It's cold here, no ice though.
12/9/2009 6:26:34 PM - 002029331419
Is your shopping done?....Now that your better...you could wrap everything...use as much tape as you want to !! LOL!!
12/9/2009 3:59:39 PM - 002029331419
It's been a week....are ya better?
12/9/2009 4:04:43 AM - 002025703401
Big Momma is having internet problems. Her daughter has got to look at it and was too tired tonight.........
High should be 60 here tomorrow :) Gotta love it compared to everywhere else! :)
I haven't had coffee or caffeine in almost a week...... just can't stomach it yet! Don't know how I'm managing to get ready for work in the mornings.
12/9/2009 3:52:32 AM - 001024320926
Jamie hope you're feeling betterer by tomorrow :) I think about you every morning, hoping I'll hear you feel better :)
Jean I love the job security comment :)
How's Linda doing? I see her on the FB pretty often!! Her and Starla :)
Sure hope it doesn't freeze tomorrow, it will cripple Dallas. Makes for a big ol long, long drive to work!!
12/8/2009 8:33:53 PM - 002029331419
Great! :0)
12/8/2009 7:20:09 PM - 002025703401
Some better today........... :)
12/8/2009 3:57:51 PM - 002029331419
Jamie...hope your starting to feel better and better each day!!
12/8/2009 3:59:33 AM - 002029331419
Jamie.. the term 'paper mountain' is Ancient Greek for Job Security!!! LOL...ah hahahahaha!
You know all of those count down clocks you have up there (look up)...well...I have one for San Antonio on my What's going on Page..(with 2 more) - and it says 2 more days and we leave! Woo hoo!! I'm really excited about going!
I'm really glad your feeling better...well...enough for you to go to work!!
12/8/2009 1:23:07 AM - 002025703401
Thanks guys! I manage to stay until 5, but I wasn't very productive today. I'm just so exhausted. Hope I'm over this soon!
The paper mountain will be waiting for me tomorrow............
12/7/2009 3:01:29 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Hope you are feeling better this day and the weekend was restful for you. Love the Christmas music you added to your site. Great addition. Anyway I just wanted to say hi and hope you are feeling well now.
12/7/2009 5:02:03 AM - 002029331419
Still on the couch? Still watching TV?....Go to bed, you need your rest!
12/7/2009 2:45:55 AM - 002067758981
Momma says!!
12/7/2009 2:44:43 AM - 002067758981
At least you had your tree to look at while you were on the couch....that had to make you feel better!! If you don't feel like staying all day, go, get work together and bring it home with you.
12/7/2009 2:29:14 AM - 002025703401
Don't want to speak too soon, but so far the headaches, stomach pains, and exhaustion are much better today.......... Gonna try going to work tomorrow. I have a mountain of work waiting......
And in reference to Kim's video, I missed it on Saturday. But Sunday morning, I was laying on the couch watching.... when there is Kim's video in a vote! I was soooo excited!!!! Texted everyone and called Kim.
Now, we have a new hobby thanks to Kim. We can submit our weather pictures and videos to the Weather Channel. :)
12/7/2009 12:24:14 AM - 002067758981
Kim, I don't think they make a shot for stomach flu.....Hey, I voted for you video, I thought it was the best....you did good, girl.
12/6/2009 8:38:21 PM - 002049843840
Didn't you take a shot for that?????
12/6/2009 4:01:29 AM - 002029331419
Jamie... Lisa should have had her adventure on the train and headed home...I bet she had a blast!! :0)
Your supposed to be taking care of your self .... so you know...you'll get feeling better!!!!
Do you think your getting better now? Another day on the couch...and you'll be Much better?
Yuck the flu...well...now your done! No more sickness for the rest of the year!! :0)
12/6/2009 1:25:19 AM - 002067758981
Glad to see you today, hope you feel all better tomorrow.
12/5/2009 3:13:32 PM - 002025703401
I must have the plague........
No one has come closer than the steps of my front porch! Kay refused to even come that close (I wanted her to see my tree) and the girls banned me from the office!
12/5/2009 3:07:16 PM - 002067758981
Wash a load of clothes.......get rid of germs.
12/5/2009 3:04:53 PM - 002025703401
I must be better..... I'm bored, but not ready to do anything or eat either. {deep sigh}
I was exhausted after putting my coat on and walked outside around the car taking snow pictures (5 minutes tops). :(
12/5/2009 1:33:25 AM - 002067758981
She was too sick to whine.......feeling a little better, so she can whine. Thinking of things she'd like to eat or drink until it's in front of her. Changes her mind then...tomorrow is gonna be better, baby. You should have let me bring you some home made potato soup!!
Joe picked our lemons today, got a bushel......lemonaide anyone? He picked the last of the zucchini yesterday and covered our orange trees, hopefully it'll be enough to save them. Jamie's are protected by her house, so they should be ok. We moved plants in and covered the rest, hope I do not have to start over next year. Had way too many porch plants ( or so I've been told ).
12/4/2009 10:24:49 PM - 002029331419
Glad to see you up and about!! Your ALIVE!! Rest up my Friend!!
Snow in Vidor!!! ....That's Awesome!!
12/4/2009 9:41:48 PM - 002025703401
Kim has snow north of Beaumont, but I've only seen a few flakes so for......... :) The oranges and lemons are still on the trees. There was no way I could pick them, but they have made it in the past......
12/4/2009 5:58:42 PM - 002029331419
If your sick...you can whine....but only if you promise that your going to get better....hehe!
Take care...let us know when the snow hits the ground! ..Do you have all of your oranges and lemons in?
12/4/2009 5:39:59 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, it was good to hear your voice this morning even though you were whining, LOL!! I think the whining is normal for people when they're sick!! Feel better :)
12/4/2009 3:49:53 AM - 002029331419
Awwww Jamie............so sorry your not feeling well...... :0(
Hope your taking good care of yourself!!
Take care Friend!!
12/4/2009 1:39:29 AM - 002025703401
The countdown clocks are there....... Can't you see them Jean? Could be my fever induced state........
SNOW!!!! :)
Rhonda...... You definitely need to meet us!!!!
I'm going back to bed...................... I wouldn't wish this on anyone! YUCK!!!
12/4/2009 12:45:52 AM - 002067758981
You know she's sick when she's not online......she's still not feeling well!!! Running fever and chills now. Think she is sleeping finally.
We expecting snow tomorrow.
12/3/2009 9:32:05 PM - 002029331419
Where's your count down clocks??????????
It's messing me up...not seeing them - all of them - flashing!
12/3/2009 4:54:23 PM - 002029331419
Jamie.......Take Care Girl!! So sorry to hear that a bug found you!! :0(
12/3/2009 3:02:29 PM - 002029331419
Rhonda...........you'll....never...be....the.....same.....ever........ LOL!!! HA!!!
12/3/2009 7:22:30 AM - 002035648808
I finished checking out some more of your site, and I love it. The picture on the Christmas page of the little girl with the skirt on and the short hair cut looks just like a picture of me when I was about that age. How crazy is that! Maybe I am related to this little girl. I'm not kidding, the resemblance is crazy:)
12/3/2009 7:09:26 AM - 002035648808
I love the post card of you all at the top. It is over the top, LOL!
12/3/2009 7:08:42 AM - 002035648808
Hi Jamie...I hope all is going well with you. I thought I would stop by for awhile and check your site out. The last couple times I was here I kept getting thrown off. So I decided to come back really late and look around. Iappreciate all the updates on your latest Goober Adventure. You girls are out of control and I love it. It sounds like your making California Plans already:) That crazy Jean posted a note on Janna's page on my site and asked her if her mom could go play in San Diego in March. Janna wants to know what the heck I am up too! LOL! I told Jean that I would look at finances and timing and see what I could come up with. I would love to meet you girls. You all seem to have so much fun together! If not San Diego, maybe somewhere a little closer to MO that I could just drive to or take a short flight too. I'll have to see. Well, I am going to go snoop around somemore and see what you have been up to on your site:)
12/3/2009 2:37:10 AM - 002029331419
I bet Lisa takes enough pictures to make a book out of it!!.....
12/2/2009 11:50:03 PM - 001024320926
I may get so excited I spin out of control..........seriously I am excited and can't wait to see Kyleigh's reaction.
12/2/2009 5:58:23 PM - 002025703401
We should pin a note to her shirt warning them!!!
12/2/2009 5:46:43 PM - 002029331419
Oh man!!..........someone warn the Train!! .....It's going to be so much fun...and we want to see pictures as soon as you can get them up!!....:0)
12/2/2009 5:40:10 PM - 002025703401
Lisa..... you my little ELF, may hyperventilate on the train!!!!
12/2/2009 5:11:15 PM - 001024320926
Jamie!!! Ok you know it snowed but I looked up the info on the North Pole Express that we are doing Saturday!! They encourage the kids to wear their pj's and Santa is on the train too!!! I can hardly believe it!! I heard the people on the radio talking about it, they called it magical!!!!!
12/2/2009 2:01:10 PM - 002025703401
I love a good plan........ :)
12/1/2009 9:39:01 PM - 002029331419
Ahhh the plans are just beginning to form.....I love it!!

Hi, Jamie. I love your whole site, but I stopped by hoping you had not changed your header since I was here last.

11/19/2009 7:13:22 PM - 002025703401
Every time Kim is looking over my shoulder at my computer, she points out my gray hair................ and if she can't see my dark circles, then I think someone is brown nosing................. :)

11/19/2009 4:50:44 PM - 002067758981
I remember thinking we'd never get home, we'll still be in elevator for next years balloon fiesta!!!
11/19/2009 4:43:42 PM - 001024320926
Oh I did have a senior moment in the elevator too, remember :)
11/19/2009 4:42:10 PM - 001024320926
Jamie when you said do you want me to send you some funny pictures on the day I said I was down, you sent some pretty good ones of me..............I could have easily gotten a special ed discount on a couple of them :) Kim I texted her the same thing last night, it was an accident. Maybe they were just trying to be nice, not intending to send a 'you're old' message. You're not old..........for goodness sake you don't color your hair!!!! If I stopped coloring my hair I would be a silvered headed 46 year old, no lie! silver headed!!! You also don't have black circles the size of dinner plates................I do, remember I made you let me put make up on in NM because I didn't want them to look worse in the pictures. In retrospect I'm thrilled I did that given the pictures that were taken, mainly by you, I looked bad enough. No matter my age, and no matter my appearance I am going to enjoy myself. Take that senior discount, chin up! if you're old I'm still older :):)
11/19/2009 4:05:18 PM - 002049843840
If you wouldn't tell on yourself all the time, we wouldn't know all the goober moves you make!!!! It's your own fault!
11/19/2009 3:50:13 PM - 002025703401
I can tell already that this is gonna be a pick on Jamie weekend.....................
11/19/2009 3:26:18 PM - 002029331419
LOL...Kim...cracking me up!!
More Mony and Rubber bands.... I'm just saying ya just never know when you need a repair kit for your tri-pod! ;0)
Laundry tonight..... Packing tonight..... Tylenol PM tonight....I'm going to need a Very Good Nights sleep!
After Lisa's massage last night she is going to be ready for her road trip tomorrow too! They are so great before a trip...!!
Jamie..............here, I'll throw ya a bone..... Todays 46 is the new 36!!! There is that better? I didn't know you at 36....I like you at 46!! And I bet she just accidently brushed across that Senior Discount key on the register....it was an Accident!!! I'm sure she didn't mean to throw your day into a spin like that!! ;0)
Of course if it took you 5 tries to get your vehicle lined up for the service.................that's usually a senior move!!
11/19/2009 4:27:30 AM - 002049843840
You should have kept your trap shut!!!! You never learn, do ya?
I have my GPS programmed, got my Zune loaded up with all my Christmas Music and my camera is ready!!! Is that all? Did miss anything, besides clothes, I mean? I'll pack all that tomorrow night. I'm so ready to go, another day and a half of work, bummer!!
11/19/2009 3:08:40 AM - 002025703401
Lisa...... are ya sure you talked to me????? or maybe it's me and I forgot, since I'm sooooooo elderly!!!!! 46 and a senior citizen.................. bummer :)
11/19/2009 2:50:12 AM - 001024320926
2.30 is pretty good :)
I have not packed yet and I still have three things on my list that I have to get done tomorrow in order to bring with me. Gotta program the GPS and do my laundry. Then there's work.................my head is spinning!! A trip to Fredericksburg will solve all my problems :)
Got my massage today, ohhhhhh it was goooooood :) I talked to Jamie while I was still in the massage fog, not sure if I was talking or moaning everything.
11/19/2009 2:03:08 AM - 002067758981
Have you packed yet? I'm going to tomorrow.
11/19/2009 2:02:27 AM - 002067758981
You got your first senior citizens discount? hehehehe
11/19/2009 12:19:01 AM - 002065887734
Hello, Jamie. I take those senior citizens discounts and say 'thank you'. I think I can remember my first one...I was a LONG way from deserving it. That upset me. Hey! I want to be a member of your site. I was accepted at one time, but it doesn't show up. Could you please let me be a member. moppet@fuse.net I'm Barbara Jean. You header won't invite me 'cause the computers think I'm already a member. I know I was a member. If you deleted me, that's ok too. I would like to "rejoin" or whatever...I give out bad vibes to computers. They do goofy things around me. Thanks.
11/18/2009 10:43:28 PM - 002025703401
$2.30 is not a HUGE discount...................
11/18/2009 9:23:32 PM - 002049843840
So we can officially call you OLD LADY now!!!!! hahaha!
11/18/2009 8:19:09 PM - 002029331419
State of shock from the huge discount that you recieved......or that you got the discount?
11/18/2009 8:14:50 PM - 002025703401
Then in my shocked state I made the mistake of telling Captain Kirk..................
11/18/2009 8:11:54 PM - 002025703401
After I left the car wash, I went through a drive-in for lunch on the way back to the office. I was putting the car wash receipt in my purse........... when the words.............. SENIOR CITIZEN.......... jumped out at me!!! I'm still in shock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
11/18/2009 8:05:14 PM - 002029331419
I've YET to be offered a Senior Discount!! ahem!!!!!.........................But Steve has!! LOL They must wonder who the young Chick he's with is??!!! LOL.....................YEAH RIIIIGHT!!!! LOL....I guess a little shopping got me in a silly mood.....
11/18/2009 7:59:09 PM - 002025703401
Says my friends who are older than me.........................
11/18/2009 7:56:25 PM - 002029331419

After touring your site I must say that I am totally impressed...Your friends page is so sweet..It looks like you and your band nerd friends have a wonderful time:) I also loved the DC page..I will be going in Jan for my 10th Pro-Life rally..Your Autumn page is so colorful...I don't blame you for wanting to travel..Next fall my sister-in-law are going to take off and do a fall tour..I would love to do a fall foilage tour like BarbJ has done...I love the fall colors. I hate that your beach is gone..Was your place lost also? I hope not..I remember when Ike hit..I was traveling and was listening to the Fox News on the radio..It must have been horrible for the folks living there..I will be back later to check out some more of your pages..The ones I have seen are great.

Hi Jamie...I am sorry I haven't been back...The last time I was here it was like grand central station...You are abusy, busy woman. I love your site. I see you on the other share sites and I get a kick how you girls go back and forth with each other. OH, and I hear you are not the quiet one. That's straight form Jean or Lisa's mount, one of the two, getting old timers, don't remember which one said it but one of them did, no I think both did! LOL! How marvelous to be able to make friends with folks from all over the country. You sure do book your cruises way ahead of time. That is great..I seldom know what I am doing tomorrow..Just kidding, I like to plan ahead also:) It has been fun getting to know you by your site. I am going to look around tomorrow and yeah..I have not been bumped off one time. The benefits of getting on shutterlfy late at night:) Have a great week-end!

Jamie my phone went DEAD when it hung up on you last night :( It took about 10 minutes on the charger before it would let me even look at the menu again. I was in Randy's truck and didn't have my charger last night.
Going to Fredericksburg!!! Can't wait. Jean you are going to love San Antonio that time of year!! I am jealous. So jealous that I told Jamie we have to do it next year, it will be like our Fredericksburg trip!!! Already can't wait!!!
11/6/2009 2:54:56 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie,
Thanks for the congrats wishes on the Yankee win. They did it. Thanks for stopping by and viewing my Europe photos and the comments. I'm glad you liked them and it is always great to see that you have come by to visit.
I see you have some travel destinations planned...that is wonderful. Travel makes life fun.
When preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money. Then take half the clothes and twice the money. ~Susan Heller
You are going to have a blast...I know it.
Anyway, have a great day and a wonderful weekend and thanks for always sharing your amazing talent and photographs. See you on the sites.
P.S. jean you just bumped me off.....
11/6/2009 2:43:01 PM - 002029331419

R U KIDDING!!! You were around me for a whole weekend...there isn't much I don't like! ah ha ha ha!!
'Water with lemon, please....and Lemon pie, with a lemon bar on the side!"...hehehe.....:0)
11/5/2009 7:32:39 PM - 002025703401
We grow satsuma oranges here. They are just starting to get ripe. Not as big as a navel orange so you just have to eat 2 or 3............ :)
Got lemon trees too, but haven't checked them. Lisa hates pie, but do you like lemon pie or lemon bars Jean?
11/5/2009 6:31:51 PM - 001024320926
For sure Jean!! She told me to bring my camera.......................it's an appendage I couldn't leave it at home if I wanted to. LOL!!
And yes Jamie if we were all together and decided to go to the city dump I'd be good with it :)
11/5/2009 6:28:10 PM - 002029331419
GET A Picture of you guys together!!!!!
Oranges............oh... Nov starts the Citrus fever that southern Texans are so fond of....My Grandparents used to winter in Mission TX...always sent oranges and grapefruits! Right?!?
11/5/2009 6:27:40 PM - 001024320926
I didn't know til this morning if it was going to happen. I'll see her about 6:00p at the Anatole.
11/5/2009 5:11:46 PM - 002025703401
Now you tell me....... Did you ever remember what you wanted to tell me last night? (Old Lady)
Do you really like oranges? I'm in shock!!!! :O
If we all took a field trip to the city dump, I think Lisa would be happy............... :)
11/5/2009 5:02:18 PM - 001024320926
Going to the Anatole to meet a fellow shutterflier, she's here for a meeting. A quick meet and greet :) Tammy Meade :) Wish ya'll were here and could go with.
11/5/2009 5:01:12 PM - 001024320926

I would NEVER even THINK about sending you something you shouldn't say, Mrs. Cleaver....
11/4/2009 10:39:28 PM - 002086548916
Hi Jamie, just stopped by to browse! Love your site! You have some great stuff on here!

11/4/2009 10:13:44 PM - 002025703401
Drucella, I would be afraid..... very afraid!!!! :O
11/4/2009 9:34:52 PM - 002029331419

11/4/2009 9:17:35 PM - 002071401838
I'm on a boring conference call. I have a very important phrase that Linda needs to learn: Où est les toilettes ?
This means: Where is the restroom?
I know - I'm going to get my hair pulled for this!!!
11/4/2009 9:14:09 PM - 002049843840

Oh yeah, I have JAMIE LEIGH in my sights.......I'll just stay home, thank you, rather than greet Walmart customers all day.......I just say NO!!!!!
11/3/2009 8:32:01 PM - 002029331419
Jamie....did I just hear the whoosh of a cane that swung pretty close to you? :0)
11/3/2009 7:55:29 PM - 002025703401
It's scary thought....... Mom behind the wheel of a scooter! :O
11/3/2009 7:30:14 PM - 001024320926
I'm sure they would let you do it in a scooter!! In fact I have seen them in wheel chairs :)
I'm seconds away form hitting the charts again but I had to do a drive by. My phone is working but my computer is wearing my last nerve!!! Other than that I'm having a good day :)
I'll be texting you!!
PS: 17 days til Fredericksburg!!!!!
11/3/2009 4:08:19 PM - 002067758981
I'd have to stand all day, don't think the knee will hold up.
11/3/2009 3:26:41 PM - 002025703401
Good idea...... MOM!!!!!!! Check that out......... :)
11/3/2009 3:20:25 PM - 002029331419
Jamie........you were snoozing at your lap top last night?!!! LOL!! I knew you were quiet last night....but didn't know you were researching the back of your eyelids!! LOL!!!
I think I'll qualify as a Wal-Mart greeter to pay for my travel ....even when I'm 90!! ha ha
11/3/2009 12:04:58 PM - 002025703401
Even though I'm socking money away for retirement, I may have to work forever to pay for my travel addiction............. ;) Big Momma keeps giving me the "Jamie Leigh" but at the same time says....... You are NOT going without me!!!!!!!!!!
11/3/2009 4:29:51 AM - 001024320926
Jamie the fall page is wonderful :)
11/3/2009 4:28:16 AM - 001024320926
She can't retire early. Linda is spending her inheritance ;)
11/3/2009 4:20:15 AM - 002029331419
Hey Girlies!! How's everyone tonight?!?!
More trips - require more vacation time - Jamie how are you going to get more time off??!! Retire early!! Whata great idea!!

11/1/2009 8:23:50 PM - 001024320926

11/1/2009 2:28:23 PM - 002025703401
The picture story is all your fault Jean! Sent it to Lisa too....... :)

10/31/2009 10:10:27 PM - 001024320926
No beautiful out side. If I'm on shutterfly for a long time, they start slowing my net down because of the huge downloading it involves to look at the sites!!!! HughesNet!!
10/31/2009 10:01:02 PM - 002025703401
Directv..... It is cloudy or raining?????
10/31/2009 9:59:50 PM - 001024320926
Dang it Jamie!! My net is running slow so none of the pictures are loading, this is so frustrating!!! I can't stand it!

10/30/2009 4:13:53 PM - 002067758981
Are we going to wildflower seed place?
10/30/2009 3:48:34 PM - 002029331419
Hey! Jamie....no name calling.......especially...since I've seen videos of YOU driving on snow...LOL!! ;0)
10/30/2009 3:11:49 PM - 001024320926
Linda I don't think you need to polish your cane, honestly it moves thru the wind much faster than you think :):):)
Jamie is eating Halloween cookies, any candy corn for me? I'm headed out to Boo at the Zoo with Kyleigh, the trick or treating at the Bass Pro Shop. Hope it's a good day weather wise. Just wanted to stop by before I head out :)
10/30/2009 2:43:39 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Good day and Buon giorno....I have added my photos so come on by and have a look. Journaling to come little by little.
Love the Garth music. Very nice and I love your autumn page. LOVE IT!!!
Have a great day and weekend too.
10/30/2009 2:41:23 PM - 002025703401
Trade Days is out toward the Wildflower Seed place..... :)
10/30/2009 2:37:16 PM - 002067758981
Oh, I thought ya'll came back along coast. Where is trade days held.....downtown?
10/30/2009 11:34:02 AM - 002025703401
No.... We went to Big Bend and then came back to San Antonio. Stopped by their friends, Miriam and James.
Billie is going to try meeting us on Saturday night, but she is helping her mom at the Trade Days at Fredericksburg on Saturday. We should see her there. And YES, Bill is as old as ME!!! :) (Hope she reads this!!!!!)
10/30/2009 11:24:27 AM - 002067758981
My cane is always polished and ready to go, its just this ole body that has to be dragged out....hehehe Going to be FUN in Fredericksburg, area had better be ready for the GOOBERS!!!! Jamie, is Billie going to try to meet us? Did you remember her birthday this week?
10/30/2009 11:15:34 AM - 002067758981
I have not been to Padre Island, they say it is very nice........Jamie, didn't you and your grandparents go to Harlington (sp?) in travel trailer?
10/30/2009 3:00:53 AM - 002025703401
The farthest I've ever been is Corpus. I don't think Lisa has been either. It's a long way down there with miles of nothing in between. :)
10/30/2009 1:19:36 AM - 002029331419
Oh!!!! And your telling me....Miss...I live way down south...that you haven't EVER gone further south to Padre Island?? Linda...have you ever been there??
10/30/2009 1:18:21 AM - 002029331419
Is it REALLY just 3 weeks away from us arriving upon a quaint little German city called Fredricksburg?!?! Wow.!! It will really move from here on.....!! woo hoo!
By then Lisa will have the fever to go somewhere...
Jamie will have lists running through her mind...
Linda waxes her cane a little more this time...with the whole bunch of us being together! :0)
hehe...it's gonna be fun! :0)
10/29/2009 10:36:45 PM - 002025703401
Lisa,
We use to say I Love My Job...... Now we say, I Have A Job.
10/29/2009 10:10:39 PM - 001024320926
I looked for pumpkins too, no luck. The Harvest village that I have up here in my office is from Garden Ridge :) Love it. The patients love it too. I may not get to put it up here next year, they are cutting back on electricity :) (that's a whole story of it's own and I'm kidding, maybe)
10/29/2009 6:25:29 PM - 002025703401
Lisa texted me to get online..... I think she missed us!!! :)
I was soooo disappointed, Garden Ridge was out of the big pumpkins...... So, I purchased Christmas stuff instead. :) :)
10/29/2009 5:11:44 PM - 002029331419
Jamie...did you get more pumpkins for your porch?
10/29/2009 3:02:53 PM - 002029331419
Hey!!! One night a week...Wednesdays...I have small group...and I come back to 2 pages that I had to pull up from the thousands that are posted on here!! LOL!! My ya'll were a chatty group last night!
Love the sugar orange iced sprinkle kind of cookies.
Must try the Peanut clusters and SF taffy.
Must try Blue Bell and make the call.... Kay did live in TX for 4 years and was mgr of Baskin Robbins for 2 years....
Headed to Colo on Friday afternoon - Monday with Vanessa and Hannah...that is IF we can get over Raton and Monument Passes...the farther north we go...the more there is snow. Vanessa is driving...her and Danny are Snowboarders and she is a good driver so I think we'll be good of the roads are ok.
10/29/2009 2:51:54 PM - 002025703401
Thought that was part of your job anyway....... :)
10/29/2009 2:31:29 PM - 001024320926
I will be returning phones calls for the rest of the year............
10/29/2009 1:45:42 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, I'm glad you had a great time, bummer that you had to come back to a full desk... Isn't it always that way. I know mine always was. They did just what had to be done and left the rest pile up for me to clear out.
10/29/2009 3:21:11 AM - 001024320926
Thank you Jamie for posting my pictures on your site, you the bomb!! (and your Moma too)
10/29/2009 2:26:11 AM - 001024320926
Only 140 more pictures to go on the iPhone................I can't even use the thing now.
10/29/2009 2:11:21 AM - 002049843840
The cookies I got aren't with icing.....I thought you just wanted the sprinkles.....ooopppsss!!!
Talked to Peggy, she will make our enchiladas for Friday....woohooooo!!!
10/29/2009 1:33:34 AM - 002025703401
Warmed up......Gulf moisture is coming in. YUCK!
Suppose to rain or flood for the next couple of days. Can't wait!!!
10/29/2009 1:31:28 AM - 001024320926
I have to do some site hopping, back in a few :)
10/29/2009 1:30:22 AM - 001024320926
Stoning for sure! Mums the word..................so how's the weather there?? :)
10/29/2009 1:26:36 AM - 002025703401
I got in trouble here for talking about some ice cream I had in Oregon. Can you imagine if we bad mouthed Blue Bell? Stoned out of Texas!!!!
10/29/2009 1:23:29 AM - 001024320926
Good thing we know how sweet she is because those are usually fightin words :)
10/29/2009 1:21:47 AM - 002025703401
The cold has gotten to her!!!!! Brain freeze :O)
10/29/2009 1:20:35 AM - 001024320926
She has no idea what she's talking about? is she running a fever? Poor thing has the swine flu or something :)
10/29/2009 1:19:19 AM - 002025703401
Yup!!! By the way, did ya see Kay Burge thought there is nothing special about Blue Bell??? {gasp!!!!} Good thing she's not a Texan!
10/29/2009 1:17:14 AM - 001024320926
Is that on my schedule now?
10/29/2009 1:16:20 AM - 002025703401
Double dare...... You told me that you have Friday off. You can make them before you leave!!! :)
10/29/2009 1:14:34 AM - 001024320926
Double dare me!!
10/29/2009 1:13:50 AM - 002025703401
Prove it!!!!!
10/29/2009 1:13:14 AM - 001024320926
They are so good! A friend in Nebraskashowed me how to make them :)
10/29/2009 1:12:30 AM - 002025703401
That's them..... :)
10/29/2009 1:12:08 AM - 001024320926
That's peanut clusters!!
10/29/2009 1:11:25 AM - 002025703401

Now you're talking!
10/29/2009 1:09:56 AM - 002025703401
I'll save one for ya and give it to ya in Fredericksburg...... Happy?
10/29/2009 1:09:17 AM - 001024320926
What if they are out?
10/29/2009 1:08:45 AM - 002025703401
I'll send you a check..... it would be cheaper for you to get them at your Walmart!!! :)
10/29/2009 1:07:33 AM - 001024320926
I knew that.
I think you can get Fedex to refridgerate one............for a small fee :)

Sooo Good to see Cheri!! Yea! She posted on here! :0)
10/28/2009 2:53:33 PM - 002025703401
Hi Cheri! Glad "things" are better and you're making the rounds. Everytime I see a crab, I think of you...... not sharing with you, but of you!!!! hehehehehe
10/28/2009 2:32:46 AM - 000093706714
Goodness girl........I leave for a while and come back to find you traveling all over the place. And I see your ticker is counting for yet another trip! GO YOU!
Just doing a quick drive by to say thank you for the card and good wishes. We got a good report from the doctor today AND I was able to get a few things back in order around the house. It honestly almost felt like a 'normal' day! :-)
Missing all my SF sweethearts........even the devilish ones who don't share their crab stuff nicely! hehehehe
I will visit again soon. Please know you always remain in my thoughts. Please send my good wishes to everyone.
Hugs
Cheri
10/28/2009 2:06:02 AM - 002025703401
Lisa texted me about 7:30 that she was going to get online but could barely keep her eyes open........ :) :) :)
10/27/2009 10:59:58 PM - 000074469281
Great photos of Lisa's trip! I'lll stop back and look at yours and Kim's.
10/27/2009 7:59:48 PM - 002025703401
Lisa is on Texas soil and did another drug free flight! :)
10/27/2009 5:05:03 PM - 002029331419
Long flight in front of her........but she can do it! I want to hear of her adventures too! Thanks for keeping us posted Jamie!
10/27/2009 4:06:42 PM - 002025703401
Talked to Lisa earlier, she was at the airport. Sounded exhausted and ready to come home. She has lots of funny stories to share....... This is Lisa!!!! Of course, she has funny stories. Can't wait for her journal. :)
10/26/2009 9:33:47 PM - 002067758981
Isn't it great that you can put Lisa's pictures up so quickly.....We get to see whats she's doing and enjoy it with her!!!!!!
10/26/2009 6:52:36 PM - 002025703401
Lisa took a tour this morning before her 11:00 class. I've uploaded the pictures she sent.
10/26/2009 6:24:53 PM - 002049843840
I've recooperated just fine....took a nap during the Cowboys game yesterday, so that helped....then went to bed early. Had a really great time. Ready to go again, but I know Albuquerque will be a 100 times better. Can't wait!!!! :) :)
10/26/2009 5:38:37 PM - 002029331419
Jamie and Kim recooperating from their girls weekend?
10/26/2009 1:07:26 AM - 002067758981
Pictures from Houston and San Francisco are great!!!
10/25/2009 11:38:00 PM - 002029331419
Hey! You had a really good day..balloons and Galveston! :0)
What time did you guys have to get up this morning? Wow...you attended 2 Balloon events in one year....betcha didn't have that on your to-do list on Jan 1 2009 this year!! ha!!
Hannah is doing fine...over what ever caught up to her! :0)
Steve came down with something on Friday night :0( gave our FB tickets to his Dad...they had a great time! homecoming...all of that band stuff...it's so much fun...even if we lost!! LOL!! He's better tonight...whew!!...Back to the ol'routine tomorrow! bummer....
Looks like Lisa is having a lot of fun doing her sight seeing too!:0)
10/25/2009 8:23:45 PM - 002025703401
Well....... this morning didn't go as planned. The winds were too strong for liftoff, so they aired up about 15 balloons and let everyone on the field. Then we had skydivers...... Kim and I stayed until about 10:00, then we drove home thru Galveston. It's a beautiful day, high about 80 but a little windy. Suppose to start raining tomorrow.
On the Lisa front, someone (LISA DIANNE) sent me a text message at 2:30AM. She swears that it was sent much earlier........ :) :) :)
Posting some more iPhone pictures.
10/25/2009 6:28:03 PM - 002029331419
Hey..a Balloon Glow....and a Mass Acention!?! Did they go off this morning?
10/25/2009 12:18:52 AM - 000076820331
Seems Lisa kept herself "contained" in the Christmas Shop. She did come upon a "good find" I think. She is on a mission to help me find this years Hard Rocks "Pinktober" pin. San Fran is out too. I waited too long and missed out in Chicago and Online. :( :( There's still Dallas! Anyone else traveling I would be forever greatful!!!! Thanks for keeping us in the loop while traveling! I really start feeling like I've been somewhere! :)
10/24/2009 11:24:09 PM - 002067758981
Looks like they are having fun.....they've sent me pctures that could be blackmail pictures of themselves in crazy hats!!! Now if I only knew how to use them....lol
10/24/2009 10:21:07 PM - 002029331419
I've been checking them out.........ok, and making comments.....you knew I would! :0)
10/24/2009 8:32:58 PM - 002025703401
Added some more Lisa pictures and & started some pictures of Kim & I's road trip...... :) Balloons are tonight. Keep your fingers crossed!!!!
10/24/2009 5:36:59 PM - 002029331419
Linda..Thanks for asking...Hannah's fever didn't jump higher then 101...so Vanessa said she's doing ok. She is eating really good now...so that's a great sign! I think it's a virus that's running it's course. I have a new set of Pics on Hannahs Page if you want to check them out.
Have you heard from the girls...did the balloons go off? Or is that tonight and tomorrow?
10/24/2009 3:05:51 AM - 002025703401
They are staying at the Hotel Frank. I think they call it art deco style....... :)
10/24/2009 2:39:33 AM - 002029331419
Ooo she's going to like it a lot, a lot! :0)
I hope she sees the Trolley shop too...it's very cool!
And I know right where the Hard Rock is!
Is the room...kinda Retro...70's? Look at the headboard!! :0)
10/24/2009 1:22:16 AM - 002025703401
Shopping Alert!!!! - Lisa is in the Christmas store on Pier 39....... This could be bad, very bad!!! LOL!!!!!! :O)
10/24/2009 12:17:45 AM - 000074469281
Linda that's funny! I'd say her room looks pretty darn swanky!! I like how she took a picture of the sink! Too bad she has a crappy view, but she got a photo of that too. She's a hoot!
It looks like she's having fun!!
I like what you wrote above about missing traveling with your grandma. One of mine loved to travel lots too.
Jamie are you girls going somewhere for the weekend? Have fun!
10/23/2009 11:39:18 PM - 002025703401
Lisa used that word, I was just repeating it.......
Now, she's at the Hardrock Cafe on Pier 39. Guess what Lisa is eating? Nachos..... Something different! LOL!!!!!!
10/23/2009 11:04:59 PM - 002067758981
Swanky? Is that a country word for NICE? Goober!!!!
10/23/2009 9:26:57 PM - 002025703401
Lisa's room is swanky but has a view of the back of a stovepipe on a building....... :)
Told her to keep the curtains closed.
10/23/2009 8:19:15 PM - 002029331419
They are there now! :0)
10/23/2009 8:05:40 PM - 002025703401
Don't know..... but I added two more pictures. One of Lisa and one of Ora :)
10/23/2009 8:01:40 PM - 002029331419
ahhhhhhhhhhh there it is!! what did you do?
10/23/2009 8:01:03 PM - 002029331419
Nope..............does it say Lisa anywhere? Is it by the flag?
10/23/2009 7:57:03 PM - 002025703401
You don't see it??????? Two airplane pictures..... slide show?
And you want me to pick you up in Houston?
10/23/2009 7:54:53 PM - 002029331419

10/23/2009 7:53:35 PM - 002029331419

10/23/2009 7:32:19 PM - 002025703401
Lisa has landed safely in San Fran and did the flight drug free!!!
10/23/2009 5:25:07 PM - 002029331419
Thanks Jamie & Linda....she slept pretty good through the night after they got her medicine in her. She's doing ok this morning - but it seems like when she woke up from her nap it went up....and through the evening it kept climbing....so we'll see...it'a virus of somekind.
Could you imagine being a pall bearer for Smokey Bear?!?!!? Ha!!
10/23/2009 3:35:50 PM - 002049843840
I'm not forcing you to do anything.....you are making all the plans remember!!!!!!
10/23/2009 3:31:43 PM - 002067758981
Jean, I just read your journal!!! Good job.
Isn't it a fact that when babies get sick, they seem to get sicker at night when you can't get into doctors office. Hope she's better today.
10/23/2009 2:24:45 PM - 002025703401
Talked to Lisa on my drive into work. She just wanted to miss the Dallas traffic since she's flying out of DFW. She sounds tired but the sinus problem is better. Promised to text and send me lots of pictures on the old iPhone.
Jean, I hope Hannah is better this morning!!!!
10/23/2009 1:57:12 PM - 002029331419
Sounds like Lisa is ready to get outta town!!! :0)
Hey .. Linda...If you haven't had a chance...read my Journal - I think you'll get a kick out of it! :0) And I've added a picture for a good effect!! :0)
...and what did the Dr do for Lisa?
Hannah ended up in urgent care late last night...couldn't get her fever down...she's on baby stuff....It was good to see how the kids handled that trip!
10/23/2009 1:54:13 PM - 002029331419
hey Joey! :0)
10/23/2009 1:54:02 PM - 000074469281

Mexican food is Yum-O!! I like how you said Kim is 'forcing you to eat it'.
Pottery sounds fun.
Take care and have a great weekend.
10/23/2009 1:08:01 PM - 002025703401
Received a text from Lisa. She is already at the airport for her 10:20 flight. Someone is ready to GO!!!

It's pouring rain so the temp is 70 right now.
10/22/2009 2:51:42 PM - 002029331419
Is it making everything look very green? It's still warm down there .... right?
Knocking out some of that pollen ... it does help!!
10/22/2009 2:22:17 PM - 002025703401
It's raining and I'm feeling better today! Actually, it's pouring........ YUCK!!!

Linda...do you get started???????
10/21/2009 3:00:15 PM - 002025703401

10/21/2009 1:35:34 PM - 001024320926
Not feeling very good today may end up going to the doctor after all. This cough is about to kill my chest. I don't want to feel like this in San Francisco or on a plane.
I hope to do Garden Ridge today, cross your fingers.
10/21/2009 3:23:50 AM - 002025703401
Thanks Barb and Jean!
That book made itself!!! Lisa, Jean (U-Turn), Linda (Big Momma), and I really did have an AWESOME time in Albuquerque. I think you can see it in all the pictures..... even the bad ones. Laughter really is the best and so are Lisa and Jean!!! :)

Jamie!! Hey Girl!! I just did a cross country tour of Autumn!! ;0)....and it was fantastic!! I love the header pumpkins...are these all at your house? VERY Nice Page!! I like how you took a little bit of each place that you had the fall pics of and put them togther....The one at Yellowstone is still the eyecatcher of the bunch though....just beautiful! :0)
We had such a great time at that party and there was a fire pit that we all sat around and had hot cider, did smores and stories.......the stars were really bright and it was a wonderful evening!! That guy was soo funny thinking I was going to Alaska! :0)
Then after church and some lunch....it was just to beautiful to stay home, so we stopped for the dog and headed to the Jemez. It was so pretty up there...but where we went...it hits a dirt road and Steve's truck was covered in dust...that wouldn't even blow off on the Hwy...and he drives faster then Jamie! ;0) hehe....
Ok...Monday Desk Duties!! :0)

I'll pass on that one....way to cold for me!!!
10/19/2009 3:37:30 AM - 002025703401
We're going to Alaska? Oh Boy!!!!!!!
10/19/2009 3:23:07 AM - 001024320926
Jamie was texting me the same advice while Linda was commenting on here :) The branch didn't fall far from the tree! I rarely say anything to cause problems, only when I absolutely have to. It helps to have ya'll pushing me in the right direction though.
The pumpkin caving was a hoot! Kyleigh was trying to eat everything that they pulled out of them. Didn't last long because it tasted bad, she puckered up and didn't want anymore :)
WooHoo!! 32 days and we'll be in Fredericksburg, the whole gang! Can't wait. That's hilarious he thought you were going to Alaska!!
10/19/2009 3:21:14 AM - 002049843840
Jean that is funny......I bet he thought your had lost you mind going to Alaska in November..LOL!!!
10/19/2009 3:17:51 AM - 001024320926
I was bumped I tell ya bumped!!
10/19/2009 3:17:21 AM - 002029331419
Hey!!! I may be older...but I think I held my own with you young Chica's..(using that adjective very loosely) while you were here! lol!! I told someone at the Harvest party last night that I was going to Fredricksburg and this man came over very excited and said that he was just there a couple of months ago!
I said Really?? and he said yeah and questioned that I was going in November! He said Alaska is cold in November! I said Alaska?? (WhatchyoutalkingaboutWillis? look) ...I'm going to Texas!! LOL!! He was in Fredricksburg Alaska in Aug fishing for a week!! LOL!!!
Had Hannah tonight....so much fun...and I'm really tired now...we went hiking in the Jemez this afternoon too!!
10/18/2009 4:09:52 PM - 002067758981
Am not going to talk about age.....just hope that you make it to be oldest in the group!!!!
10/18/2009 2:53:56 PM - 002025703401
By the way, Jean is OLDER than me....... I'm just saying! :)
10/18/2009 2:52:27 PM - 002025703401
Oh my........ I'm texting Lisa with the same advise!!!! I've turned into my mother! Scary or wise..... take your pick! LOL!!!!
10/18/2009 2:40:35 PM - 002067758981
Hey Lisa, I'm excited about Jean coming too!! It will be such fun. I know what you're going through with Kyleigh's mom, my Mom and I went through same things with my nieces. You don't want to tick them off by saying what you really want to, in fear of them limiting your time with the baby.
Have fun today, and see ya in 33 days. Enjoy your business trip.
10/18/2009 2:04:37 PM - 001024320926
Linda strap that nose down because we're off to Fredericksburg!!!! Tissue - check! I'm going to need it too. I have bad allergies and I cry when I go into Christmas overload because I love i soooo much!! I'm soooo excted! Jean is coming, we are going to have so much fun!!! I can hardly wait! Miss Kyleigh is in here now, she wants something to eat. Her Mom cut her hair, I can't stand it, chopped it all off!!!

10/18/2009 3:41:50 AM - 002025703401
Hi Alicia!
Thanks for stopping by. We had an awesome time at the balloon fiesta. Jean and Lisa were like old friends (but don't tell them)..... :)
10/18/2009 3:38:43 AM - 000076820331
Jamie, Been looking at the Balloon Feista pictures. Looks like a TON of fun here too! Thanks for sharing with me. I'm going to look around some more.
10/17/2009 3:24:11 PM - 002067758981
Feeling a little better....just wish my nose would go ahead and fall OFF my head! Sinus are a terrible thing in the fall. Feels like they're too big for my face.....Well, going to add your name to the adopted list......Maybe Jean can come to Fredericksberg, have ya'll asked her? Know Kim and Darla are planning on coming, but do not know about Kay and Gina (other adopted kids) yet.
I'm excited about Christmas light display, aren't you?
Got to go make Amish bread.
10/17/2009 5:29:32 AM - 001024320926
Jamie, Linda, I love, love, love my new book!!! It's awesome! Randy even looked at it and thought it was cool :):) I have looked at it like thirty times, it printed up really well!!! Now I am motivated to finish the books I have started. That's what I will have done before Christmas, it's my challenge to myself.
Linda thanks for the comment on my new little book, it's cute and fun :) You'll have a copy soon. Just be thinking of the fun things we an do in the Fredericksberg book!!! More people coming to this adventure, wish Jean was too!
Are ya'll feeling better?
PS: I'm still holding out for adoption :)
10/16/2009 1:43:14 PM - 002029331419
Wow!! Your girls need more green chile!!!!!!!!!! :0) It will fix what ever you have!! :0)
I really do hope you guys start to feeling better....remember how much we love fall...and tonight starts the weekend...to much to do to be sick!! ... but if you are...I'm hoping your taking very good care of yourselves!!
10/16/2009 2:55:59 AM - 001024320926
Linda you don't feel good either :( It's an epidemic! I told Jamie she needs to rest, I have a feeling she doesn't do that as much as she needs....................I'm the same :) especially since becoming addicted to the shutterfly :)
I'm headed to bed, hope everyone wakes up better tomorrow!!
10/16/2009 1:29:22 AM - 002067758981
Jamie, hope you feel better in the morning......will talk to you tomorrow. I am going to bed now....feeling pretty bad myself. The girls and I are going to take it easy tomorrow.
10/15/2009 3:44:39 PM - 002029331419
Jamie....the Fixer..... :0)
10/15/2009 3:01:00 AM - 001024320926
Thank you! I love all the Christmas tree pictures!!
10/15/2009 2:29:42 AM - 002025703401
Fixed
10/15/2009 2:28:09 AM - 002025703401
Because....... let me fix it for you!
10/15/2009 2:27:36 AM - 001024320926
How come I can't comment on the pictures on this page? Like the Christmas tree ones.
10/15/2009 2:23:55 AM - 001024320926
Jamie don't sell yourself short, you know where to aim that there camera and how to set up a great shot! The camera is just the media between you and the world. I used auto the whole time I was there, maybe a couple I didn't but nothing major. They turned out great. I have a clear UV filter on mine too. I also have a polarized lens too, that thing is awesome at the beach on those really bright sunny days, you should try it.
How is your heaache today? Did you take anything? Hope you're feeling better :)
Linda, I love it when you stop by my site, so awesome to see your profile there!! I look forward to reading your comments. I already miss you, Jamie and Jean, soooo looking forward to Fredericksburg.
10/14/2009 9:30:29 PM - 002020640084
JAIME,
YOUR SITE IS AMAZING!!! I LOVE IT!!! I JUST VIEWED YOUR NM BOOK AND ITS SPECTACULAR!!! I LEFT A COMMENT IN THE GALLERY!!! YOUR ALBEQUERUE PAGE,POSTCARD PAGE, LINDA'S KITCHEN, HOME PAGE, & FUN AT THE BEACH PAGES ARE AWESOME!!! I REALLY ENJOYED CHECKING OUT YOUR SITE! I'LL BE BACK WHEN I HAVE MORE TIME! HAVE A WONDERFUL EVENING! :)
10/14/2009 8:20:56 PM - 002025703401
Told ya, I was lucky...... The camera guesses the settings better than me, so I let it!
10/14/2009 8:08:55 PM - 002029331419
REALLY????
hmmmm......
I thought you'd be on Priority...or Shutter....or....???
Well.........doon't fix what works!! LOL!!
10/14/2009 8:01:24 PM - 002025703401
About 95% auto
10/14/2009 7:57:48 PM - 002029331419
What are your settings for outside? Do you ever shoot auto?
10/14/2009 7:56:53 PM - 002025703401
The filter is clear.
10/14/2009 7:55:19 PM - 002029331419
Is the filter clear....or brown?
I have a UV filter on already...and I have a Moose warm filter for bright days..but it was cloudy, so I didn't use it! Of course then the sun comes out.......
10/14/2009 3:39:08 PM - 002025703401
In regards to my pictures/camera, I think the UV filter really helps make the colors pop.
10/14/2009 2:55:24 PM - 002029331419
Jamie.........I don't know why....but I just now could go through you ABQ pics and comment. I tried yesterday - and the pics wouldn't advance.
Your pics turned out great....I don't know why...but mine seem kinda dark...I'll have to work on that!
What a way to remember your visit....just going through the pics was so much fun!!
10/14/2009 2:04:01 PM - 002029331419
Accents? You don't have Accents?.....LOL!!!! yeaaah riiiight......LOL!!! :0)
10/14/2009 3:21:26 AM - 002025703401
Joey -
a) Mom is a clean FREAK.
b) We do not have accents. Everyone else does! :)
c) Lisa can be a good influence ever once in a while......
10/14/2009 3:14:13 AM - 000074469281
Are you sick of seeing me?? I just saw you have a postcard page too. I wonder where u goot that idea from? I need to get going on my postcard page! Such good ideas!!
10/14/2009 3:04:07 AM - 000074469281
LOVE your NM page. I could listen to that video over and over. Love the laughing and the Texan accents!! I like the pics of everyone taking pictures - you ladies have some fancy fancy cameras!!
10/14/2009 2:55:15 AM - 000074469281
Hey Jamie, its about time I drop in. I just love all these NM pics. Checking yours out next! I just saw Jean's!! Too much fun! Is that a picture of your mom vacuuming?
10/14/2009 1:50:53 AM - 002025703401
Waiting on Jean........
10/13/2009 5:41:44 PM - 001024320926
Hardy Har Har :):):) I was examining my eyelids and I was needing the extra oxygen for the higher climate too!! I can't wait to see 'our' page by Jean, yikes! and exciting :):)
10/13/2009 1:53:54 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thanks for the welcome home message. So glad you had a great time and lots of laughs at the balloon festival. I will take a look at your book in the days ahead. For now catching up on chores. I'm glad you liked the postcard. This is the bad part about going away for more than a week...all that has to be done once you return. But i wouldn't change a thing. I/We had a fabulous time and would relive those 16 days anytime. I'll be back to visit and look around soon. Be well Jamie.
10/13/2009 2:37:38 AM - 002029331419
Hey you guys! My first Fiesta page is up! Whew...I took a LOT of pictures last week!! ha ha! Tomorrow...I'm working on 'our' page!! You need to see the pics I took too! :0) bahahahaha!!

10/13/2009 2:19:25 AM - 002067758981

10/12/2009 11:28:41 AM - 002025703401
Lisa Dianne....... Your in trouble again!!! Momma said you had to change your picture. LOL!!!
10/11/2009 4:53:20 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, I can not see your smile in new picture!!!
10/11/2009 4:22:55 PM - 001023411097
I just left the Balloon festival, what an amazing page. You did it up really great. Fun watching you girls having a blast. bj
10/11/2009 3:13:39 PM - 002052348797
We spent 3 days in Albuquerque when Steve had an apprentice contest there. I loved the shopping in Old Town. Your pictures bring back those memories. Great city!
10/11/2009 3:10:45 PM - 002052348797
Great pics as usual Jamie. You are definitely enjoying life!! I've always wanted to see the hot air balloons in Alb. I love the shot at the top of your page, really great!
10/11/2009 4:21:04 AM - 001024320926
No way!! I don't need to look worse than I already sometimes do :):):) Cool right? Both pictures came from the same place. Love Linda's new one too, excellent balloon in the background.
I have to get to bed, early morning, going to the pumpkin patch with the little punkin :) You know me I'll text ya :)
10/11/2009 4:07:42 AM - 002025703401
Whew!!!! I first read your post as an email. Thought maybe you had used that really bad picture just to get me...... But, I love this one!!!!!! :)
10/11/2009 4:05:34 AM - 001024320926
Jamie!!! Look I got the profile picture to change to one you took :) What do ya think?
10/11/2009 4:00:55 AM - 002025703401
At this time last week, we were still awake and yacking.......
Tonight, Kim has texted twice and made me call her once. She's moving pictures around on her home page.
10/11/2009 3:57:33 AM - 001024320926
I miss ya'll. Dang, it was so fun :)
10/11/2009 3:55:51 AM - 001024320926
I believe it does read DVD, one of them does, home or work. I jus left the balloon page,it was so fun, I can't believe it's been a week already.
Jean knows you were packing a fie now, LOL!! Remember the sleeping in the car picture?? Yep! I'm gonna be talking about the file :)
I talked to Jean this morning, she got her box in the mail. :):)
10/11/2009 3:52:24 AM - 002025703401
It's like Mission Impossible...... the file/tape must be destroyed after!
Lisa & Kim, do you have to tell everything? Not everyone knows how weird I am........ And Jean did not need to know I was packing a file!!!!
Lisa, I am working on DVD's tonight...... doe's your computer read them?
10/11/2009 3:42:20 AM - 002049843840
All you have to do is mention a city and Jamie can list off all the sights you need to see and the good places to eat......I love her photographic memory.....it's a benefit for all of us travelers....LOL!!!!
10/11/2009 3:24:59 AM - 001024320926
Jean, Jamie had a big ol file in her little suitcase. She showed it to me in the rental place, LOL!!! Personally I'm good with the lists and files, we all tend to benefit from them :) Jamie has a microchip somewhere, she doesn't forget anything :) I wish I could do that!
I have another package coming your way Jamie, something I forgot to put in your box plus the CD. Be looking for that this coming week.
10/11/2009 3:05:41 AM - 002049843840
Yea, she's like a quarterback with all the plays written on her arm....that's a good one Jean..
10/11/2009 2:04:29 AM - 002025703401
Jean.... Why are you home and not out looking at balloons?????
Do you like my new picture? Lisa took it!
10/11/2009 1:59:35 AM - 002029331419
Kim....Jamie did REALLY well while she was here...and I don't know if she hid her list under her pillow or not...but I didn't see a list...a folder..but she didn't even have that with her most of the time! - - - I think!! - - but then again with laughing as much as we didi...who knows, she might have had her list written on her arm in Sharpe under her sleeve and referred to it when we weren't looking!! :0) .... hehe....
10/10/2009 11:58:11 PM - 002025703401
I'm not gonna share my lists if ya make fun of me....... Kimberly!!!
10/10/2009 11:00:14 PM - 002049843840
Jamie's making a list.....imagine that!!!! LOL!!!!!
10/10/2009 8:59:58 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, I was looking around and reliving the New Mexico trip, can you believe that it was a week ago today we were there!! Jean called this morning, she got her box in the mail :):) She said the balloon glow was last night and it was awesome. Kay has a video on her FB too!
So how is our list looking? Fredericksburg, San Diego and back to Albuquerque. I'm in!!!!
10/10/2009 5:48:24 AM - 002066991916
I like your site! So beautiful photos and things going on here. Especially your 'What Friends are for" That is absolutely gorgeous! Nice shot Jamie.
10/9/2009 6:25:47 PM - 002071551455
The pictures are beautiful. Did I promise, I don't remember, but thanks anyway for not leaving me out in the rain.
10/9/2009 5:50:55 PM - 002049843840
I promised Jamie that if she dropped us off under the awning here at work (because it is raining) I wouldn't say anything bad about her on shutterfly this afternoon........so check back tonight......or on FB....hehehehe!!!!
10/9/2009 4:39:01 PM - 002025703401

10/8/2009 11:52:36 PM - 002067758981
Preview of Jamie's balloons was soooooo good.
10/8/2009 10:49:39 PM - 002067758981
Maybe her battery needs charging, what do you think, Lisa?
10/8/2009 12:44:46 PM - 002067758981
Nothing new here.......did Jamie not take any pictures in NM?
10/7/2009 9:10:09 PM - 002029331419

Hey, I don't have any blackmail pictures.
Jean I love that wagon, it bet I have shown everyone here at work that picture on my phone. I sent it to Alicia and she said her husband loves those cars. When I look at it I can hear the Beach Boys :) :)
Doing my upload tonight so I'll have a picture count in a little while :)

10/6/2009 8:28:01 PM - 002025703401
The real question is how many blackmail photos do you have???
10/6/2009 6:56:57 PM - 002029331419

U-turn Jean had us rolling and Jamie lurking for the primo shot of one of us :) Linda with the cane and the hair pulling. Jamie, even though I missed the shot I do still hav the story of you not landing so gracefully on the ground................LOL!!!!!
10/6/2009 3:38:22 AM - 001024320926

You know..... Lisa did not complain about her back until after the dancing Saturday night!!! "Old" ladies should not act like that...... :)
Haven't heard a peep out of her tonight. But the old lady has been in bed for hours...... :)
10/6/2009 3:03:40 AM - 002029331419

As a matter of fact, I was telling Mom on the way home that I really liked the green chiles! And I would never have tried them without Jean's input. Also discussed that we would never have stopped for the Indian frybread without Jean..... Thanks Jean! :)

Work has turned into a three horned nightmare today. Hopefully I will get caught up enough before days end Friday. I don't want to think about it while I'm in NM!!
I feel like we have already met because we talk so much, sooooo excited. Oh and Linda can pull my hair all day, I can't wait :):):)

9/30/2009 6:42:37 PM - 001024320926
Linda I think she's referring to you calling me Lisa Dianne :) When I read it I thought for just a second I could hear my Mom saying it ;) Yes mame no weight talk (kidding completely though).
Just think in 2 little bitty days we will be in NM!!! Joanne is in Spain again today and on Friday she'll in Italy, amazing huh? The sites are going to be on fire with all the new pictures!!!!

9/30/2009 2:18:15 PM - 002029331419
Lisa....Yeah...What Linda told you!!! Saturday looks to be beautiful - in the high 70's! So Saturday afternoon...we'll head to the Field and go in and out of the tents, eat the goodies out there, shop, laugh, see who is on stage for the live music and soak up the Fiesta!! and watch the Big balloons gettting ready for the America's Cup Race...they will race all week across the states - to see who gets the furthest! It takes almost all afternoon for them to fill up - and I've seen them in the sky...but never been on the field when they take off...and a balloon glow too!.......A great evening Girlies!!
9/30/2009 2:02:54 PM - 002025703401
Someone is in trouble and it's not me!!!! :)
One girl is here and the other has a doctor appointment this morning......
9/30/2009 1:30:35 PM - 002067758981
Are the girls there yet?
9/30/2009 1:30:04 PM - 002067758981
Lisa Dianne, we are not going to talk ABOUT OR LOOK AT WEIGHT this week-end......we're just going to have fun and enjoy what NM gives us!!!!!! Are you getting the Elvis blue swede shoes? I saw a picture on your site.....or do you have them already?
9/30/2009 3:39:18 AM - 001024320926
Linda thanks for stopping by and commenting on my autumn pictures. I love the Fall :) Mother Nature definitely does it wonderful in the fall :) I want to go to Tennessee so bad I can't see straight!!
Jamie, we laughed our butts off taking those pictures. I have some more that I haven't uploaded yet :) Plus we went to a candle party at Rhonda's (she already had it planned and we all thought let's do it anyway we needed something light hearted to do) at the party we got a little creative with the names for the name tags :) Too funny!! I took pictures but I'm not sure most people will understand the humor ;) We'll see .
I have been trying to catch up because I'll miss Monday, may have to stop by the offic after I get back to Dallas too. I'm getting nervous about the flight, that happens to me about this time. I am going to go buy new shoes Friday, wooHoo!! I'll be looking sporty :) Really it's a distraction, hoping none of you will notice my weight.....................LOL!!
9/30/2009 1:59:40 AM - 002025703401
Jean.... Are we having mexican cookies? :)
Starla.... Lisa didn't tell me not to post the pics! :)
Kim & Darla have landed in Houston (no freebies to stay)!!! HeHe! They have to show up at work tomorrow........ :)
9/30/2009 12:23:13 AM - 002055694880
I was so hoping it was a joke when Lisa told me you put those pics on here!!!! OMGOSH!! HOW AWFUL! That is such a horrible photo.. It was a lot of fun taking it tho! :)
9/29/2009 7:24:17 PM - 002029331419
Linda...yes..a Mexican Cookie!
9/29/2009 5:16:36 PM - 002067758981

I love the box decorated by Kyleigh idea, she knows how to work a crayon :)
9/29/2009 3:57:40 PM - 002029331419
Jamie!!...I totally forgot to say thanks for my Card!! It's on the Piano and I see it everytime I walk by...but forgot to tell you! It was such a cute and fun surprise!! Thanks Girly!!
9/29/2009 3:45:16 PM - 002029331419
LOL!!! I love it!! :0)
9/29/2009 2:47:54 PM - 002025703401
Then it becomes a "designer box" :)
9/29/2009 2:42:34 PM - 002029331419
But she could have Kyleigh color the sides of the box with "Lisa's Clothes" written on the side. At least she wouldn't worry about not getting the right box at the carousel! :0)
9/29/2009 2:34:47 PM - 002025703401
Or an icechest with gray tape...... :)
9/29/2009 2:32:50 PM - 002025703401
Lisa with a brown paper bag..... So Hicktown Texan! :)
Boscochitos.... Don't have a clue! And I Yahoo not Google...... :)

9/29/2009 2:14:02 PM - 002025703401

They are not awful, funny not awful..... and someone did not put a "do not post" label on them!!!! LOL!
And did ya have to tell everyone that I've been to Hobby Lobby, again??? :)
9/29/2009 12:17:11 AM - 001024320926
I love the Amish cake starter things, it's been a long time since I've had one though. Wow, I miss alot of convo today, bummer for me. I was working and texting Jamie :) iPhones do MMS pictures now, woohoo!!! Love it!!
Jamie just texted me saying she just left Hobby Lobby, she better have gotten me something good :)
I updated my Autumn page a little bit ago and I added some pictures to the cell phone page. I see some pretty awful ones were added to my cell phone section on here :) We were having fun and I was sending Jamie pictures that she could use as leverage. Jamie remember those imaginary pictures I had of someone??
I'd better run for now.
I'm all fired up about a possible trip to Tennessee in November!! Very cool trip to NM this weekend, San Fransico the end of October and hopefully Tennesse in November!!
9/28/2009 8:28:41 PM - 002025703401
Me too!!!!!
9/28/2009 8:26:44 PM - 002029331419
Jamie, Thanks for the offer...but I'll pass on it this time! :0)
9/28/2009 7:19:05 PM - 002025703401
Gonna overnight it to whom ever wants some..... Jean? Lisa? :)
9/28/2009 4:04:50 PM - 002029331419
Ya Linda...I think you could...but Jamie is the travel expert.
Lisa said she had taken pics this weekend when the whole family was together...ha ha....Starla's pic was funny too....
9/28/2009 3:54:43 PM - 002067758981
Can't I triple bag starter for Lisa and put it in our bag that is checked?
9/28/2009 3:39:53 PM - 002025703401
Added a bunch of Lisa pictures to the This & That page...... :)
9/28/2009 3:35:13 PM - 002025703401
Belongs to Randy!!! YUCK! Mom told her no pets in New Mexico....
9/28/2009 3:29:45 PM - 002029331419
nu uh....is it in an aquarium? Like as a pet? garsh.. it must be one of the boys'??
9/28/2009 3:27:44 PM - 002025703401
We had chickens when I was growing up, but Dad gave them away after my grandfather died. I hate snakes! Did you know Lisa has one in her house?!?!?
9/28/2009 3:22:08 PM - 002029331419
I just saw those! It looks (up there) and sounds like (Kims post down) they are having a good time! :0) It's so great & funny that we all take pics of what we eat when we're on vacation!
Yuck....any kind of snake can just stay away from me! Do your parents have chickens?
9/28/2009 3:17:04 PM - 002025703401
Check out the pictures from Kim & Darla at the top of this page!
9/28/2009 3:15:54 PM - 002025703401
Sorry!
Chicken snakes will only make you hurt yourself. They like to steal eggs from a chickens nest, ie their name. They can climb anything! Scary, glad Mom was not home!!! They are also called a rat snake in other areas.
9/28/2009 3:06:59 PM - 002029331419
You bumped me.
9/28/2009 3:06:24 PM - 002025703401
For what???? Refusing to bring you a cake starter?
9/28/2009 3:04:09 PM - 002029331419
Thanks Jamie!
Are Chicken Snakes dangerous?? I don't think I could say that I'd know what one looked like...and why was it hanging out on the top of the door?
9/28/2009 3:03:47 PM - 002025703401
OK Mom.... Lisa wants a starter, how are ya gonna get it to her???? :) And NO, we can't take it on the plane!
9/28/2009 2:47:39 AM - 002025703401
Mom received a starter for an Amish Friendship Cake from her neighbor. She asked my brother, Bubba to go over to their house everyday to stir it while they were at the beach this weekend.
Saturday morning, Bubba started to open the screen door into my parent's garage when a chicken snake falls from the top of the door in front of him! He admits to screaming like a little girl. His shoes went one way and he went another...... :)
Kay and I think he may have had an "accident" too!
9/28/2009 2:27:34 AM - 002025703401
I know two girls who are GOOBERS!!! Seems Kim and Darla forgot about the iPhone...... They are in so much trouble!!!
9/28/2009 1:37:42 AM - 002049843840
Jamie must not like me and Darla anymore, she has not answered any of our text messages or pictures.......
However we are having a wonderful time.....and could stay a day or two longer......went to QVC today and it was pretty cool, also Longwood Gardens, it was a misty rain but we still had a great time. Yesterday we took a buggy ride thru Amish country and stopped at a working farm, that was really cool......
We will try to check in tomorrow night, but we have a baseball game and won't be back till late. Talk to ya'll later!!!!!!!!
9/27/2009 8:16:54 PM - 002029331419
Amazing Race Tonight!!!!!!!!!! Woo Hoo!! Hope your back from theBeach House in time to watch it!!
9/25/2009 1:52:39 PM - 002029331419
Good Morning Linda! ...ummm didn't catch Survivor, sometimes I do ....and other nights like last night..was busy! ... And then we were watching The Mentalist...and I think I blinked and my eyes wouldn't open back up for a min or two...but then I got the rest of the show! I hope this season they catch Red John...but that seems to be a part of the story line...so probably not!
One week.....for Fiesta! :0)

This hotel has an indoor pool....and a slide....Jamie said those are the ones that you like! :0)
Down 94.00!! That's awesome!!
I am glad we are close enough to our airport we don't have to come in a day early! But Rhonda (my sis) ... is an hour from the Colorado Springs Airport ...and 2 hours from Denver airport.
By the time she got to the terminal at the Denver airport....she's more then 1/2 way here....but driving is really hard on her these days.
9/24/2009 7:52:41 PM - 002025703401

9/24/2009 7:48:28 PM - 002067758981
Why did hotel lower the rate? Not a log cabin is it?
9/24/2009 7:47:58 PM - 002067758981
Lisa isn't going to have to cancel is she?
9/24/2009 7:47:33 PM - 002067758981

9/24/2009 7:45:54 PM - 002067758981

9/24/2009 7:44:56 PM - 002025703401
Gotta watch the old ladies with a cane....... :)
9/24/2009 7:44:15 PM - 002067758981
Yes, Jean, we are spending the night in Houston Friday nite......early flight plus 1 1/2 hour drive at least to get to airport (plus we'll need to get there early because of knee replacement, I'll always be checked), or maybe they think I'm a threat........hehehehe (They don't know me that well)
9/24/2009 7:44:05 PM - 002025703401
I started to wait and see if she knew the answer to that question..... :)
Yes, I made reservations for Friday night in Houston. I forgot to tell you that I check the hotel in Albuquerque and the rate went down $94..... Cool!!!
9/24/2009 7:32:54 PM - 002029331419
Linda, You and Jamie are staying in Houston on Friday night for your early flight on Sat morning?
Jamie...Cute Cute Holloween Card came in the mail yesterday...Thanks a Bunch!! Pop outs are so much fun!
9/24/2009 1:22:25 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, I'm sorry you are having to work so hard and was sorry to read on facebook about your aunt.
Alaska was wonderful and Jamie makes memories for us to see on her SF sight, doesn't she?
Can you believe we're 9 days away from see the most awesome site in NM?
9/24/2009 12:08:00 AM - 001024320926

9/23/2009 4:45:44 PM - 002067758981
I don't think Subway would like Dixie stiring up trouble there no matter how good a customer you are of theirs.
9/23/2009 4:43:28 PM - 002025703401
We'll take them to Subway with us..... It's Wednesday..... :)

9/23/2009 4:36:03 PM - 002025703401
MOM!!! You bumped me!!!!
9/23/2009 4:35:38 PM - 002067758981
Where's Lisa? I'm missing her!! Weather still effecting her internet? Working?
9/23/2009 4:24:33 PM - 002029331419
Comfy walking shoes (For Jamie, the kind that has radar to tell her when there's a hole in front of her! LOL...jking you girl!) :0) Chap stick...Your going to find it dry here...your lips will tell you!
What are you bringing in the HAT catagory?...You'll want a visor - at least! Sunscreen if the temps are high.
9/23/2009 4:10:10 PM - 002025703401
Packing List
Jeans, short sleeve shirts, fleece top or sweatshirt, jacket, gloves, ear muffs
I think this will cover all kinds of weather...... :)
What else, Jean???
9/23/2009 3:36:35 PM - 002067758981
Sounds great!!!!
9/23/2009 2:06:52 PM - 002029331419
Ok, the chair is a go! I think if the temps are 'normal'...your going to enjoy them! The mornings are about 44-50 .. so that is cool. This Sat we'll be hitting 80-82 again...so it's always our wearing layers season! Something cool/light, then a long sleeved top, then a coat. This is when I bring out my gloves .... hurts when my hands get to cold. The mountain is in the east...so even though sunrise is coming, it has to get over the mountain to start shining and warming up everything. We'll know better next week. We are having an early fall this year though! I love it!
9/23/2009 10:52:05 AM - 002067758981
Oh yeah, Jamie is in charge of getting me there.....not concerned at all about that. Thank you for the chair in advance.......will not be able to stand for hours and can not get up after sitting on the ground.....would have to rent a wreaker to get me up. lol
Hope it's cool and not rainy but we'll take whatever we get. Let us know by next Thursday what you expect for the week-end so we can pack what Jamie thinks we need. EXCITED about meeting you gals. Is your sister going to be in town?
9/23/2009 3:20:54 AM - 002025703401
Yes to the chair...... :) I'll let her answer the rest.....
9/23/2009 2:33:35 AM - 002029331419
Linda...do you have any concerns or questions for next weekend? Jamie is a Pro at getting you to the airport and on the right plane... :0) I have a chair to take to the field for you if you'd like to use it. Lots of people take chairs down and just sit and watch the show take place! Let me know if you'd like to use if for the weekend ok!!
I've been keeping an eye on the weather...hoping that there might be a storm come through on Wed or so...and then it is warm and clear for the weekend. So we'll see! We're supposed to get our first freeze is some areas tonight! wow...sooo early for us!
9/22/2009 7:49:44 PM - 002067758981
Jean, you are invited any time you're in the neighborhood. Jamie has been telling me about what to expect at Fiesta. I'm game......have to work on Jamie and Lisa.
9/22/2009 7:02:22 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, thanks for the best wishes on my safe travels. I hope to make you proud and that I come back with worthy pictures and stories. Have a wonderful trip to NM and the balloon Festival. I'll be looking for all the great pictures you'll come back with. Safe travels to you too. By the way I am loving this music... makes me want to dance.
Take care.
9/22/2009 5:50:30 PM - 002029331419
Ooo Linda...I'll come for lunch! :0)
It's just next weekend and Fiesta will be here....we've been talking about some of the foods you'll have to try when your here! :0)
Went to PeiWei last night...met a friend for dinner...yumm!
9/22/2009 5:33:22 PM - 002067758981
Also made eggplant dressing (another thing that's not your favorite)....see Lisa, you are not the only picky eater....
9/22/2009 4:32:59 PM - 002025703401
Yellow squash..... not my favorite!
9/22/2009 3:58:32 PM - 002067758981
OMG!!! My brother brought a bag of yellow squash(my favorite) to me....cooked and wow, am I good.......may be gone before Joe gets back to the house...hehehehe
9/21/2009 10:08:42 PM - 002067758981

9/21/2009 9:19:25 PM - 002025703401
Yes in a heart beat...... :)
9/21/2009 9:06:53 PM - 002049843840
Sounds like Jamie was trying to interupt someone's nap.......but I know she wouldn't do that would she Linda.......
9/21/2009 8:12:06 PM - 002025703401
Called to wake her up, but she wasn't napping yet...... Dang!
9/21/2009 7:50:30 PM - 002067758981
If she gets bored, Jean, I find her something to do....hehehehehe
9/21/2009 7:49:15 PM - 002067758981
OMG!! Finally thru washing and blanching peas for the day......probably have more tomorrow. Dixie, Maddie and I are going to have quiet time (nap).
9/21/2009 12:35:38 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, This site is just as BEAUTIFUL as the Alaska site. You can make a site look so professional, truly. I love my visits here. It always adds a smile to my face. Have a great day.
9/21/2009 3:24:01 AM - 002025703401
Confession.... I'm selecting my favorite Alaska shots for Facebook.
Then I've got Albuquerque, hummingbirds, Houston Quilt Show (Oct 15), Fredericksburg, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years..... January is tax month, February is open! Any suggestions?
9/21/2009 3:18:05 AM - 002029331419

9/20/2009 3:56:45 PM - 002025703401

9/18/2009 10:40:16 PM - 002025703401
That's not very nice...... That's ok, we got you something this week but still need to mail it :)
9/18/2009 10:27:51 PM - 001024320926
Jamie I gotcha something at the Christmas store.....................you wanna know? wanna see? Tough! You have to wait til you get the package in the mail :)
9/18/2009 3:42:03 PM - 002067758981
Put a few packages of cream peas (Jamie's favorite)in freezer yesterday, still getting a few eggplant and still have okra every day. We have peas coming in soon, they are just about ready to pick and he has green onions planted. He getting ready to plant cabbage, brocolli, collards, mustard, onions and turnips as soon as peas are done. No, he never lets garden rest long. We've never planted pumpkins here for some reason that I don't know.
9/18/2009 2:54:29 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie! Balloons were up this morning...it nice and cool...with just a touch of a breeze...it's starting to feel like Fiesta! :0)
What are you doing this weekend? Hope you don't have to work!
Linda, what are you going to be doing too? Do you have any fall Veggies? Pumpkins? Or do you just let most everything rest?
I think we might go grab a movie tonight - and then we have the Football game tomorrow - it's UNM vs AirFoce....I think we'll be happier with the nachos then the score! he he
9/17/2009 3:38:31 PM - 002067758981
Hummers are still feeding at the Fredericks house!!! They are such little fighters. Dixie can hear them and thinks squirels are making the noise......lol She a funny little dog.....back to being a gober dog that barks regardless of whats coming....maybe Joe but unless he says something, she thinks its a stranger until he get close.
9/16/2009 3:05:49 PM - 001024320926
Can't wait to see Linda's hummers!! I texted Jamie and she said there were lots :) She's having to work hard this morning, I would tease her but it will be me next I'm afraid.
9/16/2009 2:50:44 PM - 002029331419
Hi Linda! Hmmmm...I can't wait to see her Hmmmmingbird pics! They are such a hoot to watch anyway. One of my favorite things about camping is that I hang out a feeder ...to just check out the local hummers that are in the mountains! :0)
Shrimp Gumbo....yumm!!
9/16/2009 10:53:10 AM - 002067758981
OMG!!! Yes, they showed up for Jamie.....I know she got some good pictures and videos...stayed outside watching and filming til almost dark....we can sure find things to amuse ourself. Can't we? She brought left-over shrimp gumbo....we helped her clean it up. :) Not PeiWei, but not bad at all. Maybe PeiWei next time Mother Nature calls us out...hehehehehe
9/16/2009 2:00:20 AM - 002029331419
What'd she bring Linda? PeiWei? We're the Hummers out and about....wanting their pictures taken? :0)
9/15/2009 10:10:16 PM - 002067758981
When she offers, I accept!!! Nothing wrong with that picture, is it?
9/15/2009 8:02:06 PM - 002025703401
Newsflash!!! - I'm bring dinner with me..... :)
9/15/2009 7:49:48 PM - 002029331419
Oooo poor poor Jamie.....her Momma's cooking and taking pictures - - girl what have you done to deserve all of that torture!?!!? ;0)
9/15/2009 5:02:57 PM - 002067758981
Yikes!!!! Their must be hundreds here today, again. My neighbor and I have spent the entire morning watching them and visiting. Mother nature.........wonderful.
9/15/2009 2:25:10 PM - 002025703401
Mo Jean is my favorite too!!!! :)
Mom is being overrun by hummingbirds, so this evening I'm going to Mom's for dinner and to stalk hummingbirds..... :) Hope I get some good shots!
9/15/2009 2:11:57 AM - 002049843840
I'm glad to see one of my name picks was so well liked!!!!
9/15/2009 1:38:25 AM - 002029331419
Welll... Mo Jean was coming over to post on this site...it was looking a little quiet...but not anymore!
9/15/2009 1:00:40 AM - 002059624475
Jamie, "Mo Jean" is my favorite too!! You guys are sleuths for sure :)
9/14/2009 11:00:16 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, I just thought I'd stop by and throw something on this site :) Love the Christmas pictures in the slides to the right.
9/11/2009 7:02:34 PM - 001024320926
Glad she feels better though.
9/11/2009 4:32:27 PM - 002025703401
Just talked to her. She slept til 10 and now she's on her way to Walmart for pills. Just like an old lady. Told her welcome to the club!!! Said she would try to get online this afternoon. :)
9/11/2009 4:26:47 PM - 001024320926
They gave her extra boold as a booster for having to work in Gooberville :):):)
9/11/2009 2:27:48 PM - 002067758981
Yea, she's home......hopes she's feeling better. After a good nite's sleep in her bed, I know it'll be some better....
9/11/2009 2:14:33 AM - 002025703401
Talking to Kim.... She's home!
9/10/2009 11:02:28 PM - 002025703401
Return to work on Monday. Maybe, after she gets a goodnights sleep at home, she will get online tomorrow. Last we heard... she was still waiting to be released.
9/10/2009 10:51:27 PM - 002067758981
Bet she's ready to get out of there and go home!!!!!
9/10/2009 10:39:14 PM - 002029331419
Gosh....I sure HOPE SO!!!
Are you going to let her have tomorrow off too? she's been through a lot!
9/10/2009 7:45:23 PM - 002025703401
Update: Nothing showed on the test, eating lunch, waiting on Gynecologist. Hopefully will go home this afternoon......
9/10/2009 4:07:24 PM - 001024320926
The sassiness is a good sign :) Good to here things are going well though :)
9/10/2009 2:57:56 PM - 002025703401
Spoke to Kim.... She's in good spirits this morning but a little woreout after last nights colon test prep. She is just waiting for them to run the test around noon. The Cajun Blood must have made her sassy this morning.... :)
9/10/2009 2:24:59 PM - 002029331419
Thanks for the update! I'm glad that the extra blood is making her feel better! LOL..on Cajun Blood!
Let us know how she does today!
9/10/2009 1:58:07 PM - 002067758981
I bet she got some good old cajun blood......that should put pep in her step!!!!!
9/10/2009 11:22:13 AM - 001024320926
The color change sounds good though, amazing what a little blood will do for ya :) Very happy to hear the update (hear/read:).
9/10/2009 11:05:02 AM - 002025703401
Update.... Darla stopped by the hospital last night. Said her color was very good..... pink and rosey where she has been very pale. Colon test not until around 11 today......
9/9/2009 7:25:33 PM - 002067758981
I'm ok....little worried about our girl.
9/9/2009 5:41:31 PM - 001024320926
I'm doing lunch and checking out sites :) Came by to see what was up. How's Linda?
9/9/2009 4:52:52 PM - 002029331419
Ok!!! It's been 2 hours.......What's new?? Did they find anything?
9/9/2009 2:25:45 PM - 002055694880
Thanks for the update. I've been worried. I will continue to say prayers. So this is something she has known about or did it just sneak up on her?
9/9/2009 3:31:46 AM - 002025703401
And a trip to Philly in a couple of weeks...... :(
9/9/2009 3:27:31 AM - 002029331419
Thanks Jamie!...IF you get to talk to her ...tell her we're thinking of her and are concerned!
Will be saying a prayer for her! She has to get better...doesn't she have concert tickets with Darla this Friday!?!?! ;0)
9/9/2009 1:51:00 AM - 002025703401
Darla spoke to Aunt Peggy about 7:00. They had finally started giving her 3 pints of blood. Still running test........ My turn to call in the morning. We are tag teaming them...... I will keep you guys updated....... Say a little prayer for her tonight for good news. Jamie

I'm impressed you can spell Rhododendrons!! ;0) I'm not sure I even say them right! ha!
They are beautiful though!
The Dahlia's at the Golden Gate Park in San Francisco were all in full bloom...amazing colors - and quite the variety too! :0)

It was funny this morning, Dixie hit my door in a dead run (this morning at 4:30---son had her last night and he leaves for work at that time). She was so glad to see me!!! Son said the first day we were gone, the door was closed and she hit the door and knocked her self down. She has a problem....little head can not hold a hugh brain, has problem seeing things.....lol Gotta love her...bless her heart, she is a sweet little girl.
9/1/2009 12:25:22 AM - 002029331419

8/31/2009 2:44:44 PM - 001024320926
Jean, I agree, she posted pictures while on the road and now she's home..................it should all be up and running by now.
Hope you have your home and work legs under you. Nothing like instant humidity and 100 degree weather to slap you back into reality :) That and the friendly smiles of Kim, Darla and Marcia :)

Are you saying that without Jamie and Jean around we are boring :( ......I resemble that remark, I mean I'm not a party animal like Jamie but I think I'm still a fun girl :)
8/17/2009 6:14:38 PM - 002025703401
Mom just retired in March. She still has a lot of really nice dress clothes that she wore to the bank....... :) My Mom is "hip"! (Just saying that in case she reads this......) LOL!!! ;)

Sigh!
8/17/2009 4:51:06 PM - 002029331419
Do people even know what the word..."hip" means!! LoL... gosh!!
8/17/2009 4:50:04 PM - 002029331419
I think we just might drive to the airport too...and leave a car. Then if something happens..we don't have to worry about how we're getting home! ha!
Well...at least you know it's still going to be light outside when you get there! I think it only got kind of dark 4 hours a night when we were up there! It was great! ha!
You can shop in your Mom's closet???...You want too?? She must be a hip dressing kinda of gal....I like to shop for my Mom..but wouldn't wear her clothes!! LOL! :0) ha ha ha ha!!!
8/17/2009 2:33:09 PM - 002025703401
Flight is at 2:50 tomorrow afternoon. Houston Intercontinental is a little over an hour from here. So, we just drive and park the SUV in one of their lots. We have a strait flight to Anchorage.... and yes it's 7 hours. FUN :(
Kay and Mom are ready!!! Kay is coming over this evening to help me with my dress clothes selection. We may have to go see Mom and shop in her closet... :)
8/17/2009 2:05:39 PM - 002029331419
Kim - Subway.... Bet she doesn't...LOL!!!
What time to do you guys head to the airport tomorrow? Is your Dad dropping you all off?
Do you have a layover anywhere....Linda says 7 hours..so is it non-stop?
Just need to know what we will be visualizing for you all tomorrow!
Is Kay ready to go?
8/17/2009 1:45:05 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Have a wonderful Alaskan adventure and BON VOYAGE!!! Enjoy and be safe.
8/17/2009 11:12:50 AM - 002025703401

8/17/2009 2:44:37 AM - 002029331419

Did Jamie get her nails done to...that would be a new one...hehehe She doesn't like being touched ya know!!!
8/16/2009 11:33:24 PM - 002029331419
Definition of Distraction = oppertunity for travelers to work on computer skills! :0)
It's a good thing that you'll still be watching Kim and Lisa...they need a lot of watching!! ... LOTS of Watching!!

8/16/2009 10:35:32 PM - 002029331419
Hi Linda!! Thanks! The Party was fantastic!!!! And we were surprised...well, I thought that some of the local family might have come...but not a full blown party that the kids started planning back in June! I will be adding pics when I get them....I didn't have my camera!
Ok...so nooowww are you packed? Now go back and take out half of what you packed and go to the bank and get more money!! LOL!!
WOW...so your on FB too!! :0) That'll be a great distraction!! ... and I love that you got your nails done!! he he!! I got the picture!! :0)
Jamie...did you get your hair cut? Getting your Mom on FB...what a great distraction!
8/16/2009 2:04:53 PM - 002067758981
Jean, Jamie told me about your surprise!! How wonderful. YES, we are packing today!!! Can hardly believe it and yes JAMIE LEIGH did make me do FB...do not know what I'm doing yet but oh well, it'll give me something else to play with......a little nervous about 7 hour flight

Are ya packing today? huh? Huh? Ok, how about now? Now....? How's that to do - to get - to pack - to call list looking this morning? ;0)
..Really though..this is a very exciting time! Packing and getting ready to go is part of the fun of a great trip! Glad you got some work done ....and you had quality time with Kim and Marcia!
My daughter has been ending most conversations for the last 6 months with getting me on FB too!
I'm not sure my hubby could stand me having one more 'addiction'...he'd probably lock me in a closet!! ha ha!
8/16/2009 11:48:14 AM - 002025703401
Some people have trouble hitting 40 hours a week........
8/16/2009 3:17:48 AM - 002049843840
Didn't mind coming in to help Jamie...I made up some of my time hehehehe...
Watched bullriding tonite and my man (Matt Bohon) that got hurt really bad in San Antonio was at the Nashville event tonite, not riding of course but looking really good.....he should be back next month....yeah!!!!!
8/16/2009 2:25:31 AM - 002025703401
I just thought Mom would enjoy FB, I did not make her join...... :)
We are very excited about our trip! A special thanks to Kim and Marcia for coming in to help me at work today. We didn't get finished, but we did remove many items from my check list!
Gotta go work on the iPhone.... Lisa is very demanding!!! :)
8/16/2009 1:41:31 AM - 002067758981
Starla, I was made to join FB too. I do not know what I am doing for sure!!!
8/15/2009 10:24:50 PM - 001024320926
Finally have 5 minutes to myself and thought I'd stop by to holler at you before your gone!! Girl you are leaving in like 2 days!! You better make sure that iPhone is operational because I expect reports!!!
8/15/2009 9:00:48 PM - 002067758981
WHOA....time flies when you're at beach house.....less than 3 days....OMG!! I'd better get packing!!!!!
8/15/2009 4:06:01 PM - 002049843840
Starla I just signed up this week on FB.....still learning the ropes too.....we can learn together. Yea!!!!
8/15/2009 2:26:15 PM - 002055694880
Ok I signed up for FB and don't have the slightest idea what I am doing...I already erased our comments and then added some pics but not to the same spot....who knows I guess I will figure it out. I have to go to my Grandma's today and taking my cousins to see if there is anything that they want. Aunt Donna is calling the mortage company on Monday....so the condo will be going back....long story. I will try to figure it out, FB that is.
8/14/2009 8:05:09 PM - 002025703401
Hey! I am a stalker in training! Lisa is showing me the ropes...... :)
8/14/2009 7:59:48 PM - 002029331419
I think her heart was saying...I love being here....her body with the heat was reminding her how comfy home is with the A/C! I do hope you get to go again when the temps come down and it's really nice being outside! :0)
Jamie.....is that stalking? ;0)
And...I have to work on Monday and Tuesday! Might have to do 1/2 day on Wed...but I'm thinking ..no! We leave at noon -no reason to be there for a couple of hours!
8/14/2009 7:53:26 PM - 002025703401
I just follow Jean and Lisa around...... :)
8/14/2009 7:43:59 PM - 002055694880
I think it's funny that after I told Lisa about those photos she went and commented and then there's Jean and Jamie commenting right back. Lisa has taken some horrible pics of me and I think that those are cute!!!! You can tell just how THRILLED she is to be there........
8/14/2009 7:03:58 PM - 002025703401
Lisa.... We love giving you a hard time, you are soooo cute!!! :)
I'm holed up in my office finishing paperwork. Got to work Saturday and Monday to get it all done. Kay (the dog) is off Monday. Mom is waffling about when they are coming home..... Sat afternoon, Sat night, Sunday morning...... Take your pick
8/14/2009 6:29:43 PM - 002029331419
Lisa...I think they are cute enough....I even went back again today! :0)
Jamie....are you hearing any whinning about you being gone for so long today? Do you go to work on Monday?
8/14/2009 5:46:13 PM - 001024320926
I just saw the pictures Starla added of me on her site............................there isn't enough plastic surgery or weight loss that can help that!!
8/14/2009 3:03:50 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, I wanted to wish you your mom and Kay a BON VOYAGE. Have a wonderful time. May you have smooth sailing and happy times. I'll be thinking of you.....Take care.
8/14/2009 5:27:29 AM - 002055694880
Oh my you only have four days untily your trip. I have been out of sorts but how exciting is that!!!! That is great. So you got an iphone to huh?? I thought about it at one point that then said forget it. I do need to upgrade my phone tho. The battery won't hold a charge and it only holds fifty texts msgs before I have to erase them....time for a new one cause that can be me and Lisa in an hour!!!! I sure hope that you guys have a great trip. I am soo sorry to hear about Marcia's garage. I came by because I knew there would be something on here about it and there was. Man!!!!!
8/14/2009 3:26:31 AM - 002025703401
I'm actually awake working on the iphone. Contacts did not completely copy over.... so gotta redo them. Grrrrrr :)
I am going to work on Saturday. {sigh} Mom and Dad are coming home on Saturday too, then we are getting our hair cut. Promised to help her pack on Sunday.....
8/14/2009 2:54:33 AM - 002029331419
You asleep in your chair?? HEY wake up and go to bed!! You can dream about Alaska..it's only 4 days away!! :0)
8/14/2009 1:18:14 AM - 002029331419
So Jamie...are you going to the beach house this weekend before you go? Or is this the weekend you do all of your girly stuff to be purty for your pictures?
Yea for you Dad....sounds like the catch was a good one!
8/14/2009 12:57:15 AM - 002025703401
"We" are going to practice sending pictures on the Alaska trip. :)
8/14/2009 12:22:07 AM - 001024320926
Gosh I can't wait to see all these fish pictures. I was bummed when I didn't find any on my phone.
8/14/2009 12:09:10 AM - 002025703401
Today's Fishing Report :)
Dad didn't catch much this morning, but went back out this afternoon. Caught one LARGE redfish that was longer than his ice chest! Also got a couple more smaller reds and a flounder. Mom took pictures with her camera (we hope). They have friends coming tomorrow, so Dad may not get to fish. :(
8/13/2009 11:48:09 PM - 001024320926
I can't believe Marcia's garage burnt!!! I feel so bad for her. I hope that the situation goes as well as it can go!!
Jamie you're all but gone!! Dang if I sneeze you're going to be on a plane in flight before I open my eyes. Gosh you are going to have soooo much fun!!!
8/13/2009 10:45:46 PM - 002029331419
OH! No!!! I'm really sorry to hear this! How sad!! So glad no one was hurt, but also sad for their loss of stuff. :0(
8/13/2009 8:04:04 PM - 002025703401
Trouble!!! Remember, I'm going to be with her for TWO weeks!!!!
On a sad note, Marcia's garage burnt to the ground this morning. They lost a 66 Mustang, a 90's model Mustang, her husband's truck, the tractor, and the riding mower. Total loss..... :(
The fire happened after she came to work, or her car would have been in it too. :(
8/13/2009 7:53:23 PM - 002029331419
Well...........your in the 4's now! If you get in trouble...remember ..your leaving soon!! :0)
8/13/2009 2:51:11 PM - 002025703401
No comment on the grounds that I may get myself in trouble AGAIN!!! :)
Redfish - I'm not sure about the taste, maybe closer to catfish. It's not my favorite, I like the speckled trout better. But, Dad catches whatever is biting.... :) Flounders should start biting in a month or so. He also catches croaker, whiting, sand trout, drum, and the list goes on.....
8/13/2009 2:47:46 AM - 002029331419
Jamie....your parents crack me up!! Or your just a good story teller....he he
I do have to say....with this job....I do not bring work home with me...but I have with others!!
Do redfish taste like salmon? or catfish? ... I'm sure I've never had it before...
Don't stay up to late! You have another day tomorrow! ;0)
8/13/2009 1:57:19 AM - 002025703401
I think I'm gonna like it. Can't work on it tonight because I brought work home with me. Bummer.......
Mom tried to send me a picture on Dad's phone this evening, but iphone would not receive it. I had programmed hers but not his...... They make me nuts! :)
Dad caught 1 large redfish and 2 small ones (3 fish = legal limit)...... Good thing we bought that new freezer for downstairs at the beach house!!! :)
Asked her if she took a picture with her reg camera.... Whoops, she forgot. What are we going to do with them? :)
8/13/2009 1:46:41 AM - 001024320926
How's the new phone Jamie?? You getting along with it?
8/12/2009 8:58:31 PM - 002029331419
Get rid of you?...sounds so cold!! No Way! We are just counting down the days/hours w i t h You!! We will miss you Jamie.....Buttercup....a LOT!!!
8/12/2009 8:42:21 PM - 002025703401
Are some people trying to get rid of me????
8/12/2009 8:29:49 PM - 002029331419
It looks to me more like 143 hours.....but...I'm not counting ...either!
8/12/2009 8:22:18 PM - 002025703401
And we are down to 5.... count them.....5 DAYS!!!!!
(I am not getting excited or anything........)
8/12/2009 8:18:00 PM - 002025703401
That's what she asked me...... And yes I did!!!
Had some issues getting the iphone setup, but took care of that this morning at the AT&T store. Having to actually work today, so I will play with it tonight.
Gina, my dad, and my uncle usually keep an eye on everything. I've been on business trips where my SUV is in the driveway. Got a call from my uncle asking why I'm not at work..... Small town living..... I'm on the backway route to Walmart, so everyone checks up on me!!!
8/12/2009 8:08:35 PM - 002029331419
Did you send the right charger along with her? ;0)
So what do you think of YOUR iphone now?
Amanda next door - the gal with the kite flying girls - will take care of Sadie and the house while we are gone...we have some really great neighbors! Our kids will drop in while we are gone too...so not to worry!!
8/12/2009 7:17:14 PM - 002025703401
I have some nice neighbors, but Gina is in charge of mail and stuff. That's why she is getting a "good" gift! Dad is not suppose to be fishing while we are gone. His job is to "baby" sit Miss Dixie.... Only if my brother is off and baby sitting, can he go fishing.... :)
Mom just called to ask where does she plug the charger in on her "new" phone.... :)
8/12/2009 5:31:41 PM - 001024320926
Fishing is like gambling..........they know the big payoff is out there somewhere :) :) Linda I hope ya'll have fun and you definitely send me any pictures you want, I'll love them :)
I sent Jamie a picture of me at my desk and she emailed me back......Goober!
8/12/2009 3:57:06 PM - 002029331419
Linda...is he going to be fishing while your in Alaska?
Lisa...she's got it all on a list...checked it twice..thrice!!
Jamie...who is house sitting while your gone? Or do you have great neighbors that will be keeping an eye on everything?
8/12/2009 2:14:02 AM - 002067758981
Lisa, if Joe catches the BIG ONE, I will send you a picture, if Jamie left your # in my phone. I should have sent the daylily picture today......took picture on my camera not with phone. The fish are bumping husband's brain....can not do anything without thinking of what he could be catching...lol
8/11/2009 10:36:54 PM - 002025703401
I did program your number into Mom's phone....... :)
8/11/2009 10:18:41 PM - 001024320926
Jean she's covering all her bases, hair, phone, clothes.............gifties :):)
Linda have a great time at the beach. Send me a picture on that new fancy phone :)
8/11/2009 9:51:05 PM - 002029331419
An iphone instead......of what? If he was in that much shock and generous mood to offer you an iphone he can text you with...you should have asked for more vacation days while you were at the negoiatition table....LOL!! oh well...there went your chance...he he....
Nothing like a new hair cut just before vacation....then it's so purty in your pictures!! 80)
8/11/2009 9:09:57 PM - 002025703401
Long story short...... My boss, Craig was in shock that I actually sent him a text message this morning. During our conversation, he offered me an iphone instead. So, I'm going to use an iphone after all. Now, that I've just master the other one..........
I'm getting my hair cut this weekend too...... :)
8/11/2009 8:59:58 PM - 002029331419
Your Officially LESS then a Week....clock says 6 !! It's going to be time to get up and grab your stuff and head to the airport....unless your sleeping there...just to make sure your first on the plane!! he he ;0)
8/11/2009 8:58:24 PM - 002029331419
I like your new frames Jamie!...very cool...for a nerdy kind of computer gal!
Did your prescription change? Is that why your having trouble walking up stairs...yeah, bi-focals will do that to you! Linda did you get new frames too?
Wow!! sounds like a complete travel pamper package for Linda! Yiippee!! Nothing like it! :0)
Whose new phone are you setting up!????
8/11/2009 8:39:00 PM - 002067758981
Hey gals, will be going back to beach house in the morning.....plan on getting hair cut, nails done, going to bank, picking up few things at store and packing Sunday and Monday.
Its really getting close now. A week form now, we'll be in flight!!!
8/11/2009 8:24:48 PM - 002025703401
Wearing the new glasses, a little weirded out when I'm standing or walking.... :) The big staircase is kinda scary!
Craig just gave me the iphone. Gonna work on setting it up tonight.
We are getting excited! Mom and Dad are thinking about going back to the beach until Saturday. So, Sunday and/or Monday will be packing days.... We've had everything in piles for a month. :) Need to clean and organize the camera equipment the next couple of nights.
8/11/2009 7:50:26 PM - 001024320926
I want to have it indoors, the car stays in a perpetual state of dirty, the balloons would not be as appreciated that way :)
Jamie are you packed, wearing your new glasses, holding your new phone with one foot out the door? Because you are all but there!! Wow! It seems like the time sailed by. Linda getting excited too?! Her bags packed already. What about Kay? She ready, packed, got the camera ready?
Are you using the new phone yet?
8/11/2009 4:42:32 PM - 002025703401
It's on my dry erase board here at work....... :)
8/11/2009 4:19:45 PM - 002029331419
You could put it on your bumper..... he he....just kidding...I don't put stickers on my car either!! That's why it's on my filing cabinet here at work!
8/11/2009 3:51:48 PM - 001024320926
I tried to scan it too, didn't work but I'm working on something else for it :)
8/11/2009 2:52:08 PM - 002025703401
I also wanted to scan the bumper sticker Jean sent, but it's too large for my scanner. I will have to use a photo.... :)
8/11/2009 2:48:01 PM - 002049843840
You stole my idea on the postcard page, now I will have to think of something else :(
8/11/2009 2:30:46 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, I see you have added some new pages on your site. I'll have to drop by and have a look. Is the packing half way done. You'll be leaving before you can say Bon Voyage.
Have a great day and I hope to visit before you sail away.
8/11/2009 2:08:08 PM - 002029331419
I like it too!! :0)
8/11/2009 12:39:26 PM - 002067758981
I like it
8/11/2009 5:18:54 AM - 002025703401
Added new page called "I've Got Shutterfly Mail" :)
8/11/2009 1:59:22 AM - 002049843840
I'm thinking those would go directly in the trash!!!
8/11/2009 1:51:06 AM - 002025703401
Save the underwear and socks for Darla.........
8/11/2009 1:46:21 AM - 002049843840
Oh and about the laundry.....burn um, burn um, burn um......hehehehe......
8/11/2009 1:44:51 AM - 002049843840
Linda I did not take over her computer today, however I did use her phone once to text Lisa. She is causing all kinds of problems today isn't she? Just think she will be your problem for 2 whole weeks......good thing you have Kay for backup.....LOL!
8/11/2009 1:39:55 AM - 002067758981
Jamie, you are in such trouble!!! Think they'll wash them or burn 'em when they get them.
8/11/2009 1:10:23 AM - 002025703401
I've got the solution..... We will ship them our dirty laundry!!! LOL!!! :) :)
8/11/2009 1:09:19 AM - 002067758981
Guess we'll have carry on coming back or we could leave dirty clothes behind.
8/11/2009 1:08:23 AM - 002067758981
I saw that!!!
8/11/2009 1:05:55 AM - 002025703401
Read back........
DARLA said "I will pay for the extra luggage!" This is all Darla's fault!!!
8/11/2009 12:56:19 AM - 002067758981
Gift=something you DO NOT pay for......Jamie
8/11/2009 12:53:33 AM - 002067758981
WOOOOOOWWWWEEE I did start a uprising HEHEHE
8/11/2009 12:49:59 AM - 002025703401
Gina, have we ever forgot you??? Don't answer that....... :)
8/11/2009 12:23:53 AM - 002080771054
Hey-- lets get back to the gifts. Since when do you have to pay for gifts, especially the shipping!!!! If I am still getting the mail, I agree with Kim. No magnets!!!!
8/11/2009 12:03:13 AM - 002067758981
No way, girly................admit it, you were being a b..t!
Jamie, I don't think I have a thing to wear...........I'm worried about what to take......hehehe Maybe you better come help me pack Saturday, what do you think?
8/10/2009 11:48:13 PM - 002025703401
Not me Momma..... That was Kim on my PC.... Yeah, it was Kim! She also took my cell phone this afternoon and was playing with it too...... :)
8/10/2009 11:42:40 PM - 002067758981
I think I started something about not bringing gifts....hehehehe
I know what ya'll are putting up with......I had to tell JAMIE LEIGH today, not to be a smart a.s!!!! She admits she was trying to get a rise out of me.
Kimberly, take care of that for me, please.
8/10/2009 9:16:29 PM - 002049843840
Probably not for a while, the ones we have now suck........
8/10/2009 9:15:07 PM - 002025703401
Soooo..... no more peaches!
8/10/2009 9:13:39 PM - 002049843840
I didn't eat ice cream.....maybe peaches, but I don't even remember what night I had that dream.......
8/10/2009 9:12:28 PM - 002025703401
No more ice cream at bed time for Kim.......
8/10/2009 8:35:47 PM - 002049843840
Okay here is the story, I had a dream that I went with Jamie, Linda and Kay to Alaska, but just for the first part, not the cruise I was going to fly home. They were doing excursions that I had done last year when we went, so I was just meeting them when they got thru, however I was traveling by snowmobile everywhere. It was cold and snowing. That's pretty weird I know!!!!
8/10/2009 8:27:48 PM - 002029331419
Well, now Jamie...aren't you so proud of your self that this long time a-coming trip has effected so many people ... others are dreaming about Alaska!! And I'm excited for you -- and I didn't even know you all were going until...like the end of April or something like that!!
gaaarsh!!!
8/10/2009 8:25:11 PM - 002049843840
Not with you per say....just in general, snowmobiling and such.....maybe that's an omen of things to come (snow)!!!
8/10/2009 8:19:02 PM - 002025703401
Kim is the one having dreams about going to Alaska with me...... And she keeps telling me the weather forecast..... :)
8/10/2009 8:15:51 PM - 002049843840
She is all giddy, I mean I don't know why......i guess someone forgot to tell her that her trip has been cancelled.....hehehe......Alaska has burnt all up, haven't you heard......
8/10/2009 8:07:49 PM - 002029331419
7 official days......... Kim can you get a picture of Jamie all giggly like...cuz, I mean it's only 7 days now!!
Darla....Love your New Picture!!! :0)
8/10/2009 8:02:48 PM - 002025703401
Cash only upfront on my desk before I leave....... I'm not sure if I can trust you guys with UPS packages either...... :)
8/10/2009 7:59:33 PM - 002025703401
Cash only upfront........
8/10/2009 7:58:16 PM - 002071551455
You do know that most stores will ship gifts for you? Just a hint
8/10/2009 7:56:22 PM - 002049843840
Charge it to my account......until I see what kind of gifts I receive.....then we'll see!!!
8/10/2009 7:51:52 PM - 002025703401
Darla just put the $25 on the corner of my desk.......
8/10/2009 7:50:13 PM - 002049843840
Darla must really want gifts bad to pay to get them here......I want gifts but not that bad!!!!
8/10/2009 7:47:01 PM - 002025703401
You beat me on the 7 days......
Thats $25 per extra bag..... Cash only..... :)
8/10/2009 7:45:45 PM - 002071887921
YEE-HAW...if official...only 7 days left...that my friend is ONLY 1 week!!!!!!
8/10/2009 7:39:52 PM - 002071887921
chimming in my two cents worth......WHAT no gifts????!!!!!!! i will pay for the extra luggage!! :)
8/10/2009 7:27:00 PM - 002049843840
Not bring gifts back....well that is just not right, I mean Jamie is going to owe us big time for this long of a vacation....I want some good stuff too......not just magnets!!! LOL!
8/10/2009 7:15:06 PM - 002025703401
No..... Just talked to Kay on the phone about packing and sleeping on the plane. Probably packing on Sunday. Almost seven days!!!!
Kim had a dream that she went with us to Alaska.......
8/10/2009 7:10:40 PM - 002067758981
You are not packed yet, are you?
8/10/2009 7:08:21 PM - 002067758981
Guess we could NOT bring gifts................lol
8/10/2009 6:52:50 PM - 002025703401
Kim is worried about my luggage size and me having plenty of room to bring gifts home.....
8/10/2009 6:06:20 PM - 001024320926
8 days!!!!!! Holy Mac and Cheese!!! Incredible that it's that close :) You're getting excited aren't ya?? Let's see you have your lists and then there's our lists for gifties and ornaments. I have a care package here for ya'll but I'm thinking I'd better mail it after you get back. Maybe I can get it outta here in the next couple days.
I didn't get any blackmail pictures this weekend but I did take a bunch of pictures, hoping to have them up by the end of the day. I posted the pictures you sent me from the beach.
I'll be back, gotta go eat a sandwich.
8/10/2009 6:02:26 PM - 001024320926
A quote for you Jamie:
I haven't been anywhere, but it's on my list. ~Susan Sontag
8/10/2009 5:53:04 PM - 002067758981
Beach was good....Dixie had to be carried up and down stairway.....but she did not seem to mind....lol A lot cooler there with the breeze blowing most of the time. I was just a lazy bones. Did some cooking and read my book. My brother came down for a few days to fish with Joe. Caught some hugh redfish!!
8/10/2009 4:36:37 PM - 002029331419
8 days?!?!?! Wow....Are your bags sitting at the front door yet? ha!
We had a great time camping...I can't believe that Rhonda has already started her camping page!
How was the beach??
8/10/2009 2:01:04 PM - 000093706714
Is that Trip Count Down working correctly??? My gosh...........8 days! You girls have to be sooooooooooo excited! And lists, lists.......I see lists EVERYWHERE! hehehehe
My little weekend update includes the following:
1) Weee.................we got a Wii and a Wii Fit! (Do you think that I should be worried that my DH has been calling me 'chubby' and was absolutely insistent on buying this for me? hehehehehe Actually, he knew I loved it and wanted me to have something fun to get me thru the rest of the summer! He is soooooooooo sweet! (I think I am going to keep him! Tomorrow is our 25 yr. anniversary and he is definitely WELL TRAINED!)
2) NEVER take a movie tip from your 20 yrs old 'friends'!!!! The movie 'Orphan' is awful. $35 for the worst 2 hrs we have had in a long time!
3) My DH has invited me to a beautiful French restaurant for our anniversary dinner. A true 'oooh la la' kindof evening! However, after contemplating the elegant dress and bright pink cast, I have decided that I am not up for the 'event'. I have to come up with a counter proposal today. Thinking...............
I am going to take my 'pondering' back home! I hope you have a great day.
Hugs
Cheri

Eight days!!!! wow it's coming fast now!! How's everyone today?
8/10/2009 11:07:26 AM - 002025703401
I was running on fumes last night, so I pull a Darla and went to bed early. This week is going to be another crazy one but we are getting excited about our upcoming trip to Alaska. I have lists of things to do everywhere.
8/10/2009 2:34:23 AM - 002049843840
Jamie are you hiding out......
8/9/2009 6:41:41 PM - 002049843840
So did you get much "work" done yesterday???
8/8/2009 11:20:07 AM - 002025703401
Good morning!
Gotta go into work today and then I'm headed down to the beach house this evening.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
8/8/2009 1:47:37 AM - 002025703401
I think they ended up not being able to leave until morning.
8/8/2009 1:44:33 AM - 002049843840
Did Lisa get on the road yet?
8/8/2009 1:41:34 AM - 002025703401
Eating peaches......
8/8/2009 1:38:44 AM - 002049843840
What are you doing Jamie? Still learning how to use the new phone......
8/7/2009 8:38:50 PM - 002049843840
See we need to get her now before she leaves because we will have no one to hassle while she is gone for 2 weeks.......and of course she will miss us giving her a hard time. Plus I recall that there is some payback coming for all the early morning texts while I was in Alaska last year......get ready Jam.....
8/7/2009 6:27:21 PM - 000093706714
Came to visit.....and see that KIM IS IN TROUBLE AGAIN! hehehehehe
Girl, be good............she will be gone in 11 DAYS!
8/7/2009 6:10:34 PM - 002049843840
Well!!!!! Lisa thought is was funny.........Sorry Lisa!!
8/7/2009 4:31:12 PM - 002025703401
I'm gonna remember that Kimberly next time I hear.... "Jamie, would you fix my laptop"......
Want to crawfish on that statement??????
8/7/2009 2:18:11 PM - 002049843840
Jamie is trying to blame me and Darla for not getting an iphone, but I think it is because she was to chicken to get a phone that is smarter than she is.......LOL!
8/7/2009 2:16:04 PM - 002029331419
Work on Saturday....2 weeks in Alaska....yup...Your getting the good end of the deal Jamie!
We're taking off in a couple of hours and I have stuff to do...so better get busy...but wanted to drop in and say hi...Hi...ok, now it's bye...bye! :0)
8/7/2009 4:53:25 AM - 002025703401
Gonna have to work Saturday...... bummer, but I'm going to Alaska in 11 days! :)
8/7/2009 4:40:18 AM - 002049843840
Are you going to the beach tomorrow or Saturday?
8/7/2009 4:39:10 AM - 002025703401
Yup!!!
Gotta go to bed. My pink highlighter is waiting for me in the morning....... :)
8/7/2009 4:37:12 AM - 002049843840
Then why did you ask me, testing me?
8/7/2009 4:36:41 AM - 002025703401
LOL!!! She told me........
8/7/2009 4:35:36 AM - 002049843840
Yes are you jealous???
8/7/2009 4:35:10 AM - 002025703401
Did Lisa text you?
8/7/2009 4:34:37 AM - 002049843840
I'm sure we will never ever see one of those catfish.......talk about a lake record, you would have to tow it in....
8/7/2009 4:33:09 AM - 002025703401
It might eat your boat......
8/7/2009 4:29:47 AM - 002049843840
I have heard stories about catfish in Rayburn that are big enough to eat a man.....well I don't plan on coming across any that big, Peggy can have them.....I can just see her now, that would be so funny......
8/7/2009 4:26:00 AM - 002025703401
Ya know, big catfish will eat ya too......... I'm just sayin...... :)
8/7/2009 4:19:46 AM - 002049843840
I have decided that I will not be getting into any water except for bathtub/shower or a pool that I can see the bottom of.....Darla and I watched a show about sharks that can survive in fresh water, in rivers several hundred miles upstream.....so no more swimming for me in a lake or river.......
8/7/2009 4:15:20 AM - 002025703401
And I scared her.... Told her about dad surf fishing last summer with the sharks circling him...... Hummmm! I wonder why dad likes his boat so much?
8/7/2009 4:07:02 AM - 002049843840
Her hubby stole her computer.....LOL!
8/7/2009 3:59:23 AM - 002025703401
Hey! She started it..... She's watching shark week!!! ;0)
8/7/2009 3:57:19 AM - 002049843840
So you and Lisa text and Jean and I are left wandering where you are and thinking you have deserted us......
8/7/2009 3:55:36 AM - 002025703401
Woke up by Lisa sending me text messages.......
8/7/2009 3:51:53 AM - 002049843840
She is in her recliner asleep already I'm sure.
8/7/2009 3:47:21 AM - 002029331419
Jamie...turn off your new phone and go to sleep!! You have to work tomorrow....I'm just saying....
8/7/2009 3:38:39 AM - 002029331419
My Mom goes through phones faster then any of us girls! LOL!
8/7/2009 3:36:04 AM - 002025703401
Mine was two years old...... Mom's is worse, gonna put her sims card in the Razor. She surprised me today..... sent 2 pictures and called three times. I think she's a little bored with Dad out fishing and no internet. Mom is still adjusting to retirement!
8/7/2009 3:34:34 AM - 002029331419
The first phone I had...4 years!! second phone 4 years!! I just got this one last summer...already a year old!!
8/7/2009 3:31:34 AM - 002025703401
And YOU are always telling us how old your phone is........ I had a flip Razor phone! Lisa was wearing my fingers out!!! :)
8/7/2009 3:26:39 AM - 002029331419
Did you see the Envy's?... I have the red one! I have really fat fingers with joint issues andI can text pretty fast on it!
That was a great story! And I was putting miss Hannah down for the night..so I wouldn't have bumped you anyway! :0) So your with AT&T? and they use LG phones too? hmmmm interesting!
8/7/2009 3:25:49 AM - 002025703401
I was eating...... May have to read the manual this weekend.
8/7/2009 3:17:32 AM - 002049843840
We are to boring for her.....so how is the phone learning going?
8/7/2009 3:11:17 AM - 002025703401
Sorry, I was cutting up peaches..... Eating them plain tonight. YUM!
I bet Darla is asleep....... :)
8/7/2009 3:02:05 AM - 002049843840
Darla has not responded for a while....could she be sleeping??
8/7/2009 2:56:49 AM - 002025703401
Darla........ was it sugar-free?
8/7/2009 2:46:08 AM - 002049843840
Sounds like quite a story.....Darla had Baskin Robbins!
8/7/2009 2:37:32 AM - 002025703401
And I'm out of ice cream....... {sign} What am I going to do?
8/7/2009 2:35:03 AM - 002025703401
Was busy working when I looked up and it was 6:30. Decide I better check online to see what time the AT&T store closes - 8:00.
I walk in the door and there are at least 5 people ahead of me.... YUCK! I hate to wait in line. So, I proceed to touch all the phones. Figure out that there are a bunch with the keyboard way too small for my fat fingers. Oh, and I also decide the iphone is a little to much phone for me, good grief... I have a laptop, a netbook, an ipod.....
Anyway back to the story, after at least 15 minutes I'm still waiting with the same people ahead of me...... Since I'm not a very patient person (big surprise!!!), I decide to go try the store in the mall.
Well, the nicest young man waits on me the minute I walk in the door. We discuss texting and keyboards, I showed him the phone that I liked at the other store and he suggests one with an even bigger keyboard that was not on display. When he looks up the price in his computer, it's AS MUCH AS AN IPHONE...... So, I tell him that. This is the good part..... He leans toward me and whispers..... "You can get it cheaper at Best Buy." He was so nice, I bought an aircard from him so Mom can have internet at the beach. She is a little bored without us there......
So, then I go to Best Buy..... Had to wait, but only one person ahead of me. Would you believe the clerk there was also very nice. He did not have the phone the guy at AT&T suggested, but he did have the phone I had originally picked out. He made sure all my contacts were copied to the new phone, show me some basic stuff, and made sure I got a discount on the car charger.
I got a LG Xenon for $79. It was $149 with a $50 mail-in rebate at the AT&T store.
Now I have to figure out how to operate it...... :)
8/7/2009 2:09:59 AM - 002025703401
Here's the story.... Let me type.... No interruptions..... Jean.... Kim.....
8/7/2009 2:08:23 AM - 001024320926
Ahhhh, Kim I'll text you too :) I love to text!! Plus I texted you over Andy Roddick!!! Have you posted a picture of your Moose yet. Have you met my Coco?
Jamie how's the phone hunt going?
8/6/2009 10:08:43 PM - 002025703401
Working.....
8/6/2009 8:17:20 PM - 002049843840
Jamie must be playing with her new friend by email ot texting.....to busy for us.......
8/6/2009 3:23:02 PM - 002049843840
Bragger!!!!!
8/6/2009 3:04:48 PM - 002025703401
Unlimited texting is $30 a month on my family plan. I pay for my mom and dad's cell phones. It's my contribution to beach house expenses...... See what a good daughter I am! :)
8/6/2009 2:45:31 PM - 002029331419
Now easy there Starla.... I do not have unlimited texting...my poor hubby would probably turn our phones in and say forgitit!!!
I think I was the last person in my zip code to get a cell phone anyway - - and I keep them for so long that the reason I have to get a new one...it's because the battery won't keep a charge for more then an hour...and they do NOT make that style of phone or battery anymore, so I have to upgrade!...wow..that was a lot of rambling...ha ha...I need to get busy at work...It is My Friday ya know! :0)
8/6/2009 2:24:04 PM - 002055694880
I have unlimited texting to.....who doesn't!?!?!? And I have Lisa's phone number programed to where I talk to her. Come on Jean. We need your number. Oh and Jamie helping LIsa with the heat thing! It's only supposed to be in 90's. Not real bad. There is water and shade.....she will be fine. And air conditioner at night. Oh and she's going skinny dippin!!! She said so.
8/6/2009 1:57:02 PM - 002049843840
We need to know what story you were trying to tell.......
8/6/2009 11:23:16 AM - 002025703401
I have unlimited texting and I'll bet you money that Lisa does too...... Now, what's your excuse????? :)
And sorry......., no one bumped me (except Kimberly).... I fell asleep in the chair and crawled in bed at midnight, again.... :)
Think I called myself a clown too..... We seem to have become the floor show for everyone. We are good for laughs! :) :)
8/6/2009 3:32:59 AM - 002029331419
Sorry, Jamie... I'm pretty sure I bumped you off somewhere... :0(
8/6/2009 3:09:17 AM - 002029331419
Put money on that bet Jamie!!! LOL!!
Lisa!!!! Jamie is calling us Clowns!!! Clowns?!?!?!?! Moi??? Whaaaa?
You girls would have to increase your texting plans if I gave you my cell number!! I'm looking out for Your best interests here.... more money to spend at Hallmark and Hobby Lobby!! Ah ha ha ha!! :0)
8/6/2009 1:22:09 AM - 001024320926
The plot thickens :) :)
8/6/2009 1:19:27 AM - 002025703401
You know snarly just doesn't seem like a word a nice southern girl like Cheri would use..... I bet Jean sent an email or text message..... I'm sure Jean sends text messages to everyone but Lisa and I!!!
8/6/2009 1:10:55 AM - 001024320926
Jean ran from her site because she bumped my 3,000 word novella :) :) I laughed so hard at my own reaction to it when it disappeared!!
I thought I could hear Jean whispering thru type the word Snarly...................but maybe it was Cheri :) after all. It's just hard to believe that Jean's not behind it!
8/6/2009 12:54:51 AM - 002029331419
Look below....it was Cheri's face on Cheri's comment and she called you Snarly...Read for yourself deary!! ;0)
Of course with her bum leg and all...she's thinking your not going to call her on it...and she's right...again!!
8/5/2009 11:34:52 PM - 002025703401
Cheri..... blaming others..... you should be ashamed!!!
8/5/2009 9:13:15 PM - 002029331419
It was Cheri...didn't you recognize her voice...ummm typing....??
8/5/2009 9:03:26 PM - 002029331419
LISAAAAAAAA.........!!!!!! Snarly is not part of my vocabulary...and I wouldn't know how to spell it if Cheri didn't first.........so it was Cheri!!
8/5/2009 7:41:19 PM - 001024320926
I didn't say anything..............Jean was talking, I didn't hear what she said but she was talking :) I thought I heard her use Snarly :) but I can't be sure :)
8/5/2009 7:32:15 PM - 002025703401
SNARLY!!! Who said I was SNARLY? Jean, Lisa, Kim, and the list goes on....... I am perfectly calm.... :)
8/5/2009 3:56:21 PM - 000093706714
Hey SNARLY! Just popping in to send you a little sweet cyber hug to chase away your grumpies! WHO could be grumpy with such a FAB trip right around the corner?
Hang in there..............only 13 days, 3 hrs, 50 mins and 2 secs to go!
Oh....and looky there.....more time just clicked off the clock! You are even closer!
Have a good day.......and if you don't; pull a prank on someone. It ALWAYS makes ME feel better! hehehehehehe
8/5/2009 3:19:50 PM - 002025703401
The boat, the riding lawnmower, peaches, two dogs, enough food for an army, and the list goes on......
8/5/2009 3:16:07 PM - 002029331419
What'er they hauling?? I hope they have a good time!
It's going to hit 100 today...you can have this summer heat back ...any time you want it - like tomorrow!!
8/5/2009 2:40:19 PM - 002025703401
Mom called and said they look like a bunch of gypsies headed down there. I asked if they needed a bigger truck......
8/5/2009 2:36:41 PM - 001024320926
Have a great time Linda!!
8/5/2009 12:34:50 PM - 002067758981
You gals be nice to each other this week..........talk to ya'll when we return from beach.
8/5/2009 3:50:14 AM - 001024320926
Jean, I don't bump on purpose, if it happens it's just a bonus :)
8/5/2009 3:29:36 AM - 002025703401
Speak of the devil..... She on now, leaving little comments over on her site. :)
8/5/2009 3:26:10 AM - 002029331419
Yeah...keep us in the dark...I was expecting her to bump me off somewhere around here...and she's not even on??!?! All of that anxiety for nothing...

Gina, Gina, Gina..... Now, when I'm on a diet, you want ice cream.... I can remember Kay & I having to talk you into Dairy Queen stops on our road trips. Deep sigh.....
8/4/2009 11:28:27 PM - 002080771054
Ok Jamie--don't be a porker with the ice cream. Especially home made ice cream!!!!!!! Hormone change. I have been eating it alot more.
8/4/2009 6:42:27 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, she must be workin'........too quiet, huh? Wwwwhhhhoooo...14 days!
8/4/2009 6:29:16 PM - 001024320926
Jamie, what's up?? Where are ya??
8/4/2009 2:18:49 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Howdy as you Texas folks say....Is your suitcase out and have you started packing? I have a sister-in-law that packs a month before her trips. Now that is crazy. I bet your are itching to leave and enjoy your adventures up north. I also love the music you have here on the home page. Makes me want to go out on a sailboat and have a day of sailing. have a great day Jamie, just wanted to say HI!!!
8/4/2009 1:51:17 PM - 002067758981
Quiet today, are you workin? 'Busy'
8/4/2009 1:40:30 AM - 002067758981
Gina wanted peach ice cream, Jamie......you have to share.......
8/4/2009 1:23:20 AM - 002025703401
Gina doesn't even like ice cream that much..... more for me! :)
And we do have luggage check.... I'm worse than airport security..... :)
8/4/2009 12:34:12 AM - 002067758981
I didn't make it yet.....will freeze peaches and you'll be here when I make it, Gina....I have to take care of my girls.
Lisa Dianne, I will pack my own....LOL.....Jamie will probably check our luggage.....we have her list you know.
8/3/2009 11:22:42 PM - 002080771054
Hey, where is the ice cream???? I'm ready!!!!!!
8/3/2009 11:00:13 PM - 001024320926
Of course if I were in charge of packing I would pack some interesting things for ya'll to wear :) :) :) I'm pretty sure I would be able to hear Linda and you say.....Lisa Dianne!! all the way from Alaska :)
8/3/2009 10:58:50 PM - 001024320926
Jamie I will drive down there one day :) 5 hours isn't that bad :) I think I should wait till after you go on vacation though. If I came there now you and Linda might put me to work packing!!
8/3/2009 9:14:49 PM - 002067758981
Georgia peaches are great too. Hey, that's the way I eat them!!! With a little salt, yum. OMG time is flying now!! Hubby is taking girls and I to beach house Wednesday or Thursday, so it will really go by fast. Nah, I not excited!!! Ready to pack. lol
8/3/2009 8:45:40 PM - 002029331419
Two weeks and your going to be in Alaska!!!!!!! Get Excited Girls...because it's going to be a fantastic time! :0)
8/3/2009 8:25:01 PM - 001024320926
Linda fresh peaches sound great!! The best peach I ever ate came from Georgia, I cut it in half and ate it with salt, it was awesome!! That was 2 years ago.
How was lunch Jamie?? Where did ya'll go??
8/3/2009 3:56:28 PM - 002025703401
Update..... 3 hours later and they are planning lunch! :)
8/3/2009 3:38:30 PM - 002067758981
So, they won't want to go to lunch today? lol
8/3/2009 2:40:04 PM - 002025703401
Today the office staff was eating pancakes and bacon when I got here..... They are very quiet this morning..... May need to see if any of them are in a sugar coma! :)
8/2/2009 10:24:54 PM - 002067758981
I'm doing great....my brother and his wife just left. They brought me a surprise!!! A box of fresh peaches...................sooooooooo good, Jamie wanted to know if I was going to make fresh peach ice cream tomorrow.....good idea, huh?
Dixie is doing so good! Slowed her down some, not 100% yet but she is off meds unless I think she's hurting. Vet said not to give pain meds if she's up and around because it may make her more active and she'll end up hurting herself.

8/2/2009 9:37:05 PM - 001024320926
Wow!! You're off to see the wizard in just 15 days!!!!
8/2/2009 9:36:40 PM - 001024320926
Jamie, bear, beer.......you have to admit they look similiar and I still think seeing someone open a can of beer a** sounds pretty interesting!!
I was in Oklahoma visitng a friend yesterday, took about 3 1/2 hours to get to Ada, OK, it was a nice drive and a wonderful visit. That's why I wasn't out and about yesterday. I slept in this morning and man that felt great!! I took a ton of pictures and I'll post them tomorrow :) I hope that ya'll missed me in at least a small way :)
I can not wait to see your tree and I love the ornaments you posted, love them!!! The pig is adorable, he's the cutest thing!!
Hi Linda, hope you're well :) How's Dixie doing?
8/2/2009 8:36:55 PM - 002067758981
Do not pick on Gina, JAMIE LEIGH. She may have to save me!!
8/2/2009 7:44:33 PM - 002025703401
Gina is such a brown noser. She just wants my inheritance.......... :)
8/2/2009 6:05:07 PM - 002080771054
You just call me Linda. I will come and get you, even though Jamie thinks I couldn't do it!!!
8/2/2009 3:01:00 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, How is your weekend going? Has the weather cooled off a bit in Texas? I look at your countdown clock and you are 16 days away from sailing to Alaska. YIPPEE!!! Can't wait to see all the photos and stories to share with us. Have a great day.
8/2/2009 3:48:30 AM - 002029331419
Hi Linda..we'll only be gone Wed- Sun...and we are very excited! We have a good idea of all of the things we want to do - and yet, not have so much planned that we cannot enjoy beiing on a mini-vacation ! :0)
Jamie..you were working today? From home or did you have to go to the office?
I think that there is a special T-shirt for people that out run the bears in Alaska! he he...jking!! They have some really great ones though!
In Anchorage - we had supper at a place called the Snowgoose - I had a Carribou Burger - it was soo good! They had really great Food and a very fun place to eat at! :0)
8/2/2009 2:26:34 AM - 002025703401
Kay... be very suspicious if Gina gives you anything for the trip. It is probably bear bait.... I just know Gina wants to go pickup Mom in Alaska....... ;)
8/2/2009 1:30:24 AM - 002067758981
Listen Gina, I watched a show on tv today about the bears in Alaska. Neither one of those two girls could out run the bears and I do not plan on being that close to them myself......hope to see one from car not on trail. lol You'd have to come get me to get me home..hehehe
8/2/2009 12:49:18 AM - 002080771054
Don't worry Linda--Even the bears will give them back. Plus Kay will have her can with her!!!!
8/1/2009 10:07:31 PM - 002067758981
Jean, how long will you be gone?
8/1/2009 8:53:26 PM - 002029331419
And right on the back of your dust...I'll be in San Fransisco!! yiippee!
8/1/2009 8:26:24 PM - 002025703401
I'm must be the only one working today..... but I'm also going to Alaska in almost two weeks! :)
8/1/2009 8:22:32 PM - 002067758981
quiet here today!!
8/1/2009 8:09:18 PM - 002025703401
Now it is 16 days!!!!!!
8/1/2009 5:25:42 PM - 002067758981
Soon to be 16 days!!
8/1/2009 1:44:18 PM - 002067758981
A beary good show!! hehehe
8/1/2009 1:20:01 PM - 002067758981
I should be able to get a good show!!!
8/1/2009 12:50:09 PM - 002025703401
I think I can out run Kay, but depends on my knees and ankles going out.... Kay will probably kick me in the knee and then run...... She's evil! :)
8/1/2009 12:46:32 PM - 002067758981
How fast can you and Kay climb a tree? hehehehe That's why I'll be at a rangers station with my eyes on the trail you two took. Watching for a show to begin!!
8/1/2009 12:44:08 PM - 002067758981
Do not make me worry about bear attacks!!!!
8/1/2009 12:35:30 PM - 002025703401
Barbara, Lisa, Kay, & Everyone Else..... - Stop winding up my mother! :)
Note: I know that is impossible... plus it's soooo much fun!!! LOL!!! :)
8/1/2009 11:49:21 AM - 002067758981
JAMIE LEIGH, I do not like the idea of hikes with bears.......Barbara says it was beary scary cause you could not see anything but the path......Rangers can run faster than you and Kay!!!
8/1/2009 4:04:05 AM - 001023411097
I went on a ranger led hike and the bear was in the bushes and I tell you girl you could not see a thing except the path. It was beary scary!
8/1/2009 4:02:45 AM - 001023411097
Jamie, Thank you fo much for the trave Pics! They are wonderful. You can change them out or just leave them forever I love them. I want to go back to Alaska. You trip sounds awesome...bj
8/1/2009 2:05:52 AM - 002071401838
I'll talk to the chef.
8/1/2009 1:11:11 AM - 002025703401
Lisa..... It's BEAR not beer...... :) and I bet Walmart sells both!
8/1/2009 1:07:42 AM - 002025703401
I'll have to check my schedule, but think I have to work.......... :) :)
But..... If I do show up, will there be food? Really good food???
And.... Gina Weiner is such a brown noser!!!
PS. Don't be foolin' with your crab cook...... :(
8/1/2009 1:01:40 AM - 002067758981
WWWooooooooo, trash talk from your friends, Jamie.
7/31/2009 11:44:02 PM - 002080771054
Hey Kay, you know that I will be there on paint day!! Do you have a can of paint whoop a** for your other friend?
7/31/2009 11:12:56 PM - 002067758981
What is a whisile?
7/31/2009 10:56:52 PM - 002071401838
I think I've decided who to hire to do the sheetrock work. I'm going to invite my friends over for a painting party after the sheetrock is done. No excuses, Jamie Leigh. I know when you're "busy".
7/31/2009 10:53:07 PM - 001024320926
I want to see the cans of beer whoop a**!!
7/31/2009 10:48:02 PM - 002025703401
I have my bear whistle and that's why we are going on the ranger led hike..... :)
7/31/2009 10:40:23 PM - 002071401838
Hey - do y'all think they make cans of bear whoop a$$??? Maybe we need to pack some!!!
7/31/2009 10:36:09 PM - 002067758981
And Exit Glacier Trail is closed too!! Now I am going to worry!!
7/31/2009 10:35:12 PM - 002067758981
She may read this......she'll make you go first!!!
7/31/2009 10:28:54 PM - 002025703401
The 3.8 miles is the Harding Icefield Trail, we are not doing that one.....
WE are doing the Exit Glacier Trail.
And don't worry about bears.... we've got Kay for bear bait! :)
7/31/2009 10:15:01 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, I am NOT walking 3.8 miles and run into bears!!! I will find a bench and read and let the big girls go on ahead. Maybe the rains will be over by the time we get there.
7/31/2009 10:01:40 PM - 002071551455
Be careful I am still here. Yes my pants are getting a little tighter but I am sure that is due to the dryer. Don't you agree? Anyway there is still room for pancakes on Monday. Have a great weekend.
7/31/2009 9:49:08 PM - 002025703401
Mom - Check this out.
7-31-09
Exit Glacier Road is closed at the Resurrection River Bridge due to flooding that resulted from heavy rainfall over the past several days.
The National Park Service makes every effort to keep the public informed about news, special events, projects, and accomplishments which occur within and around the units of the Park Service.
Kenai Fjords National Park provides press releases to local newspapers. In addition current and past news releases will be posted here on the park web site.
For all press inquiries, call the park's Public Information Officer at (907) 224-2118.
Exit Glacier Road: Exit Glacier Road is currently CLOSED at the Resurrection River Bridge due to flooding from heavy rains. (7/31/09)
Exit Glacier Trails: All lower trails at Exit Glacier are currently inaccessible as a result of a temporary closure of Exit Glacier Road due to flooding.
Harding Icefield Trail: The Harding Icefield Trail is presently inaccessible as a result of a temporary closure of Exit Glacier Road due to flooding.
July has brought heavy rains to the Seward area. Be prepared for muddy and slippery conditions on the Harding Icefield Trail; sturdy footwear and appropriate clothing for variable mountain weather conditions are highly recommended.
Most of the trail is snow-free except for a few stretches just before the emergency shelter (mile 3.8). Please stay on the trail to avoid trampling vegetation, particularly the sensitive alpine plants growing in the rocks at the end of the trail.
Don't forget that the Exit Glacier area is frequented by bears so be bear smart and make noise while you hike to alert bears of your presence. Please be safe and have a great hike!
7/31/2009 9:45:05 PM - 002025703401
That's right..... all of them have left for the weekend except Marcia..... Soooo, I can talk about them! :)
7/31/2009 9:42:19 PM - 002067758981
Now, I happen to know that they are gone for the day and can not answer back!! Besides, she did bring me tomatos..................
7/31/2009 9:40:34 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, quit picking on the girls...............you cooked for the two days this week.
7/31/2009 9:39:21 PM - 002025703401
Take your pick! Even Miss Kimberly...... :)
7/31/2009 9:32:27 PM - 001024320926
Who's pants?
7/31/2009 8:41:21 PM - 002025703401
But.... someone else's pants were getting tight....... I'm just saying......
7/31/2009 8:25:09 PM - 002049843840
I threatened not to go to lunch today because I'm getting tired of Subway....so she agreed to go to the mall so we could have something different (and to get a griddle).....
7/31/2009 7:04:23 PM - 002025703401
We went to the mall at lunch (yes I had Subway) to get a griddle, so Marcia can make them pancakes on Monday..... {pigs}
7/31/2009 6:58:19 PM - 001024320926
I want an award too!! Can't wait to see the addition to the page. Here piggy, piggy :)
7/31/2009 4:10:32 PM - 002025703401
I took photos of the pig award this morning.... Will add to the office page this weekend. :) :) They walked in this morning wanting to eat...... {PIGS} :) :)
7/31/2009 3:06:20 PM - 002071551455
I have the dubious honor of the pig award for this year, but I might add that there are several of us in here who came in very close to me. I wanted a photo finish to prove the point but so far we haven't installed cameras. OOOPS I may have opened a hornets nest!!!! LOL
7/31/2009 2:55:25 PM - 001024320926
I would proudly display 'the pig' if I had it because I am sure I would have had to out eaten a seasoned group of people to snag the award :) Hard fought! LOL!!
7/31/2009 2:27:41 PM - 002029331419
I like that office award! Not quite a Golden Statue...but hey...it doesn't have to be to still honor that day of feasting!....I think that it's probably 'all ya alls' own fault for being good cooks...or being related to one...and then brining in all of that food! ... ;0)
7/31/2009 11:03:38 AM - 002025703401
We are good for comic relief....
"The pig" is a little ceramic pig that is award to the person who eats the most at our annual ALL day office Christmas party. The eating starts first thing in the morning and by lunch time, everyone is too full to eat lunch. We open gifts for lunch and then the afternoon snacking starts.... The pig sits on the "winners" desk all year.
7/30/2009 11:11:58 PM - 001024320926
If I could have a popcorn machine in my kitchen, I would :)
PS: I'm gonna head home and hit the hay early, I am sooo tire :) I promise I'll be bright eyed tomorrow. Think of some one liners :) It was it to talk with you today Jamie and thanks for thinking even more reasons why my Xanax coma pictures are funny :) My favorite line:
'they could have stuffed your mouth full of cotton....' LOL!!!
7/30/2009 10:25:09 PM - 002025703401
There is a popcorn machine on the showroom floor. I think the employees eat all the popcorn...... (Mainly, by some of the ladies in the office)
7/30/2009 10:20:22 PM - 001024320926
OMGosh!! I am still laughing about my mouth being wide open!! LOL!!
Did someone mention popcorn? I love the corn man, love it!!
7/30/2009 10:09:08 PM - 002071551455
I didn't have my daily popcorn. I am in stress mode. (need FOOOOOD) Without my food I might chew on something or someone that might bite back. You wouldn't want that would you.
7/30/2009 9:38:52 PM - 002071887921
yeah, i need to know if i need to eat breakfast or just wait for you to get here with the food...
7/30/2009 9:37:52 PM - 002049843840
So what are you bringing tomorrow Jamie?
7/30/2009 9:35:56 PM - 002079792465
Hey she was looking for popcorn earlier....
7/30/2009 9:35:14 PM - 002049843840
Are you saying Marcia has been eating all day......she hasn't had her daily popcorn yet..
7/30/2009 9:34:13 PM - 002025703401
The pig is on Marcia's desk. The same person who has had dip, lunch, ice cream, and currently eating chips......
7/30/2009 9:33:17 PM - 002079792465
Excuse me Kim....I haven't had the pig in over a year......Maybe this year it might have to go to you....
7/30/2009 9:31:54 PM - 002049843840
It's not on Elaine's desk????? It needs to be!!!!!
7/30/2009 9:31:06 PM - 002079792465
JAMIE I can't believe you said that....I had FIVE....get it right...Darla I think Marcia has the pig...
7/30/2009 9:29:52 PM - 002071887921
do we still have that "pig" award floating around here......
7/30/2009 9:29:11 PM - 002025703401
Elaine had FOUR helpings of dip today!!!
7/30/2009 9:28:19 PM - 002079792465
This is true....
7/30/2009 9:28:09 PM - 002071887921
good thing you are on the "light" side of the room!!!!!!!
7/30/2009 9:27:31 PM - 002079792465
Moma Linda I promise I did not eat any of the food Jamie brought....Kim, Darla, Marcia and Jamie ate it all.....I am praying the floor holds...
7/30/2009 9:26:42 PM - 002049843840
That is not nice.....Linda she is being mean to me..(pouting)!!!!
7/30/2009 9:22:18 PM - 002025703401
Sweet Pea has put on some weight over the years..... I'm just saying.....
7/30/2009 9:18:36 PM - 002049843840
I know that comment was not directed at me.....huh Linda!!!
7/30/2009 9:16:04 PM - 002025703401
Check the This & That page.... Lisa sent me some new special pics of herself.... :)
7/30/2009 9:14:46 PM - 002025703401
MOMMA! The girls are offended!!! We try to keep the weight evenly on the floor.....
BAD! BAD! BAD!
7/30/2009 9:13:13 PM - 001024320926
Snap Linda, that was funny :) :)
7/30/2009 8:59:47 PM - 002049843840
You are so bad.....I love it!
7/30/2009 8:43:18 PM - 002067758981
Is that all ya'll do is eat? Or think about eating or planning on eating? Mr. Kinsel told me he was thinking about having some more supports put in to hold up the second floor. HEHEHEHEHE
7/30/2009 7:42:38 PM - 002049843840
Do you have a picture to prove that.....telling lies on me.....I can't believe you would do such a thing (pouting)....sniff..sniff....
7/30/2009 7:35:03 PM - 002025703401
Well.... at least I didn't have a chocolate ring around my mouth.... Kimberly!
7/30/2009 7:19:50 PM - 002049843840
I tried to get a picture of Jamie eating her ice cream sandwich, but by the time I got in there she had already inhaled it....and I know she ate one because she called to tell me she was with her mouth full, I could hardly understand her..... LOL!!!
7/30/2009 7:14:38 PM - 002025703401
I walked downstairs with the cricket to release it into the wild...... [sigh}
Now.... they (the office goobers) are eating ice cream sandwiches....
7/30/2009 7:12:36 PM - 002029331419
Lisa....was it your English Accent...? If not ...do it again and use that one...it's my favorite! :0)
7/30/2009 7:04:57 PM - 001024320926
I can see the reality series now..........The Cricket Snatcher is heading over to the corner office of the biggest building in North American, it is suspected to be highly infested with crickets. If this is true we will likely see truly heroic acts in her efforts to rid the earth of crickets :) I said all of that with an accent :)
7/30/2009 6:58:52 PM - 002049843840
That's why you get paid the big bucks.....to catch crickets.....you are the official HOCS (Head of Cricket Snatching)!
7/30/2009 6:53:08 PM - 002025703401
The head (highly paid) goober just had to catch a cricket for them...... Cry babies!!!
7/30/2009 6:43:14 PM - 002049843840
Lisa, are you goober material? LOL!
7/30/2009 6:42:12 PM - 001024320926
LOL!! I thought hey I could work there :) :)
7/30/2009 6:35:59 PM - 002071887921
all hail to our leader!!!!! :)
7/30/2009 6:32:38 PM - 002049843840
Hey!!! We are not goobers.....although it does take a major nerdy goober to recognize all other goobers......Jamie is our #1 gooberette!!!!
7/30/2009 6:28:23 PM - 002025703401
Hey! I'm the only nerdy goober, the rest of them are just goobers...... :) :)
7/30/2009 6:24:40 PM - 002071887921
lisa....were you expecting a bunch of nerdy goobers??? LOL
7/30/2009 5:35:10 PM - 001024320926
I looked at the Office Crew page :) So great!! Most of ya'll look real normal :) :)
7/30/2009 5:30:46 PM - 001024320926
Push some food this way :)
Just got back from hospital, seems like it took forever to get out of there today. I drove in some seriously bad weather this morning. Jean said she was sending rain, she didn't say she was sending 100 mph wind, a tornado and rain pouring so hard you couldn't see the road.
7/30/2009 5:13:21 PM - 002067758981
What's for tomorrow?
7/30/2009 4:27:51 PM - 002025703401
Jean hit the nail on the head.... My late grandmother was the biggest food pusher. Our family still talks about it...... Anyway, I'm trying to fill her shoes! :) :)
7/30/2009 4:23:25 PM - 002029331419
Does that qualify her as a food pusher? :0)
7/30/2009 2:47:01 PM - 002071887921
jaime is making sure we will miss her greatly.....this is two days in a row she has brought us food....cake yesterday....bean dip today......keep it comin'.....
7/30/2009 2:35:01 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Jamie, How are you doing today? Is it hot in Texas. Lisa was saying it was HOT over the weekend and we as of yet have not reached 90 this entire summer. But I don't mind because the hot weather makes you lazy and sick.
I love the photos in the Jamie's Favorites slideshow...they are wonderful and I could see why you love them. Thanks for sharing them. OMG 19 days till you sailaway. Are the luggage out of the closet yet? Start your packing and double check your lists.
Have a good day and keep cool.
7/30/2009 2:00:19 PM - 002029331419
Linda and Jamie...your in the 1's!! 19 days until you leave!... and that means in 20 day's we leave! yiippee!! Your vacation time is getting closer and closer and closer.....
7/30/2009 1:13:03 PM - 002068986075
Shame on him!!! He just cannot keep a secret...LOL
7/30/2009 12:59:03 PM - 002025703401
And some people don't need any help!!!! Jared is on his on....... :) :)
7/30/2009 11:26:10 AM - 001024320926
Seems to me Jamie does a fair amount of nudging people toward the dark side..........I'm just saying :) :)
7/30/2009 2:59:19 AM - 002025703401
Whoa!!!! Don't throw me on the same bus as Jared! He is gonna be in soooo much trouble.... (Hope someone gets pictures) hehehehe.......
7/30/2009 2:25:39 AM - 002049843840
I like it when JAMIE LEIGH is in trouble!!!!
7/30/2009 2:00:04 AM - 002067758981
Jared, your Momma is going to hurt you!!!! Kathy, lets get Jared and Jamie.........and yes, JAMIE LEIGH is still in trouble.
7/30/2009 1:15:49 AM - 000030313549
My mom wants to know who the ticked off lady with gas pains is in the LSU shirt at CrabFest 2009?
7/29/2009 9:47:04 PM - 001024320926
I bet she did get a couple all caps Jamie Leigh's and the eye.....................Jamie I would have done the same!!!
7/29/2009 9:32:32 PM - 002049843840
Jamie got in big trouble over those pictures.....I think a couple of JAMIE LEIGH's were handed out yesterday!!
7/29/2009 9:10:03 PM - 002029331419
It's been a lonnnng day at the office....and no cake! :0(

7/29/2009 3:57:34 AM - 002025703401
Exciting, but the downside is all the work I have to do..... :(
7/29/2009 3:56:48 AM - 002049843840
It wasn't posting...... over a year of planning and it is finally here.
7/29/2009 3:51:45 AM - 002025703401
Doesn't seem real......
7/29/2009 3:51:11 AM - 002049843840

7/29/2009 2:48:56 AM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thanks for the congrats regarding Victoria's job. YES, finally my prayers have been answered. She is happy and now I have to pray for everyone else and this country needs to get back on track.
You have less than a month till your cruise....how exciting. Get the suitcases out and start packing my friend. Have a great night.

7/28/2009 11:25:20 PM - 002055694880
Ok guess i am still out of it .... I didn't find any trash talking....however I was trash talking Lisa most of the day when she was texting me. I hope all is well.....I am doing a little better Lisa always makes me feel better....especially when I can pick on her.
7/28/2009 11:25:13 PM - 002055694880

7/28/2009 10:07:04 PM - 002067758981
that's true................in 3 weeks, we'll be in the air!!!
7/28/2009 9:58:57 PM - 002025703401
But I'm your nerd.... :)
I wanted to take a picture and send it to Lisa of her in the BAD, UGLY frames......
Rule #1 is never shop alone for glasses!
7/28/2009 9:53:08 PM - 002067758981
Jamie would not let me get the frames I wanted.....lol And no Jamie did not get cool ones.....nerdy ones yes.
7/28/2009 9:46:45 PM - 002029331419
Did you guys get matching frames?? New and improved lenses?? Cool Frames? Nerdy Frames?
7/28/2009 6:31:10 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Hope you are well today. Love your new Alaska 2009 website. can't wait to see what you do with the pages once you get back from your cruise. I also really enjoy visiting Linda's Kitchen page. Looks yummy and thanks for sharing the recipes.
Jamie, good news ...Victoria got the job and she starts on Monday. And the best part is the vacation is still on. She told them upfront and her supervisor understood. We are all thrilled. Thanks also for your continued good wishes it was much appreciated. :-)
7/28/2009 5:07:44 PM - 002029331419
When the best I could do was tell the nurse there was a big E on the wall before they let me in the 9th grade...I could see just fine....then they stuck glasses on me and the whole world opened up!! LOL!
Ask the lady at the office...which frames are the most expensive - and then find ones like that they will be the cool ones!! LOL! ah ha ha!!
Lisa...here's a paper towel...clean up your keyboard.
7/28/2009 4:59:24 PM - 001024320926
Cool frames to go with your new profile pictures!! I love all the new changes and definitely love the shrimp on the Crab Feast page. I drooled all over my computer!!
7/28/2009 4:49:50 PM - 002025703401
COOL frames??? What qualifies as cool? Remember, I'm a nerdy accounting computer geek.... :)
I've had to wear glasses since I felled the eye test at the DMV when I was turning eighteen..... :)
7/28/2009 4:46:08 PM - 002029331419
New Glasses!!.... Ahh "The better to see you with my dear!"..... Get some cool frames Jamie! :0)
7/28/2009 3:43:02 PM - 002025703401
Big Momma is coming into town today. We both need new glasses, so I made us eye appointments for after lunch. And yes.... we are going to Pei Wei! We will think about you Jean! :)
7/28/2009 3:27:55 PM - 002029331419
Are you going to Pei Wei??????? ;0)

And another thing, girl, you are so going to buy lunch today!!!
7/28/2009 3:13:14 PM - 002067758981
JAMIE LEIGH, you are in such trouble!!! OK, so now the world knows how messy I am, really the recliner picture was un-called for. Your Momma was in trouble and you took pictures.....lol I will remember!!!
7/28/2009 2:07:38 PM - 002029331419
Ooo Linda..the ol'butter down your shirt picture --- I don't have a lot of pictures...but I usually have something splattered on my shirt by then end of each day! :0) But that's just me! ha!
Fun pics at the crab party - and we needed those so there is proof that Jamie will share crab with others....willingly....LOL! What a fun weekend you guys had!!
Tonight is season end of Deadliest Catch!
Ok....back to work! :0(
7/28/2009 12:39:05 PM - 000093706714
Now, I just think you are really teasing me........I can hear your evil laugh all the way to Michigan! And I am telling your momma about the pic on the Crabby page..........although it did cause me to laugh out loud! Now, I am wanting to feel the same way she looked...filled to the brim with crabs!
7/28/2009 4:12:32 AM - 002049843840
The crabby and blackmail page!! Wait till I see her tomorrow....hehe!
7/28/2009 4:04:32 AM - 002025703401
And I only put it on two pages.... I think Kay took that one!!!
7/28/2009 4:01:17 AM - 002049843840
Yea, I think the one of your mom in the recliner is not going to go over well........
7/28/2009 3:58:14 AM - 002025703401
So.... I've been busy tonight! Added pictures to Linda's Kitchen page, the Blackmail page, and the Crabby page... Check them out.... I will more than likely be in trouble for some of them..... :)
7/28/2009 3:22:13 AM - 002049843840
I like the new pictures and changes you made to Linda's Kitchen......professional crab cooker? LOL!!
7/28/2009 3:08:02 AM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie :) I have been looking at my new phone and trying not to think too much. Today was a big ol bad stinking day!!! I'm glad it's almost over!!
I can't wait to go exploring in Texas with ya Jamie :) You have to go to the Stockyards!!!!
7/28/2009 3:01:18 AM - 002025703401
Sorry Jean.... I was adding new stuff to Linda's Kitchen! Check it out.... :)
7/28/2009 1:50:31 AM - 002029331419
I worked like crazy today too!! Boy am I glad that this Monday is almost over!
Jamie....what'd you do with Linda's Kitchen????
7/28/2009 12:11:34 AM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, I was a worker today. I did manage to post my pictures right before I came here. I'm headed home but I'll be bad on later.
Hi Cheri, Linda and Jean!!!
7/27/2009 10:06:52 PM - 000093706714
Dangit girl....I will have that on my mind now for days....which in my terms means this: I will eat EVERYTHING else in site TRYING to satisfy my hunger for cajun crabs! Ah yes, I could go out to a MICHIGAN restaurant ....and get mediocre crabs...but then there is the quantity issue! It would have been MUCh simpler if you just done what your momma told ya to begin with.....ya know...the 'S' word!
7/27/2009 9:26:24 PM - 002067758981
Cheri, I did teach her to share....don't know what happened. She shares almost everything except when it comes to crabs. hehehe
7/27/2009 8:37:17 PM - 002025703401
Cheri, Think spicy Cajun style, like crawfish.... YUMMY!!! {insert evil laugh} :)
7/27/2009 8:22:12 PM - 000093706714
So Jamie...BEFORE Jean bumped me, I was asking you if your momma taught you about SHARING? She told me that you were doing that weird EVIL LAUGH the whole time you were devouring MY portion of the crabs! Dangit girl....
7/27/2009 8:21:11 PM - 000093706714
ya just bumped me jean......
7/27/2009 8:20:46 PM - 002029331419
Hey! I like your new site.....but I couldn't find a place to comment.. is that on purpose? You have it layed out really nice - it'll be so easy to keep updated! Nice Job!!
7/27/2009 6:17:48 PM - 002025703401
Can't always dodge the bullet when yo momma is firing the gun.....
7/27/2009 5:33:19 PM - 002029331419
Jamie's fault!? .....wow....you usually dodge that bullet pretty well....ooopps... you got it this time! he he :
Glad you both liked your little Fiesta envelope...I thought that something big and bright would just make more fun! :0)
7/27/2009 4:32:51 PM - 002025703401
Ohhhhh! So, it's back to being my fault!!!!
7/27/2009 4:28:34 PM - 002067758981
Hey now, Jamie, you did not tell me to save some for Cheri!!!!
7/27/2009 3:29:14 PM - 002025703401
Cheri.... I am so, so sorry...... Momma ate them ALL!!!! :)
7/27/2009 3:22:21 PM - 000093706714
mmmm........still waiting on that package of crab to be delivered! Been watching ALL weekend!
7/27/2009 2:24:31 PM - 002067758981
Looks like lots of rain and mist today...........going to get it all done before we get there. Probably be warm as toast while we're there...........lol
7/27/2009 2:22:27 PM - 002067758981
Here to check the temps in Alaska
7/27/2009 2:22:03 PM - 002067758981
Hey, watch it....all good stuff!!!
7/27/2009 1:59:40 PM - 002025703401
Starla, is "cute" another way of saying... "You look like a nerdy goober"??? LOL!!!
Lisa, I lost mine a month ago. Found it between the car seats after calling it with the house phone. :)
And my mother had better learn to keep her suitcase of a purse zipped so everything doesn't fall out.......
7/27/2009 12:28:52 PM - 002055694880
Hey Jamie...and Linda. Thank you for you kind words. We are trying to carry on as normal as possible. The kids are hanging in there. Their daddy took them camping on Friday nite (our spot was paid for) and I went on Saturday morning. It was nice and we did have a good time. I get home only to hear about my aunt. She was relaxing on the dock looking out over the lake and when she got up to go home FELL and broke on ankle and sprained the other. She is in a wheelchair...no weight for a week. So I will be going over and sitting with her for the next three days while her husband is at work.
Love the new profile pic Jamie..It's cute.
7/27/2009 12:10:28 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, I have lost mine several times, once in Vegas. Had to back track, talk about someone sighing..................Jamie Leigh did, once in my driveway, then Jamie ran over it........needless to say that time I had to get new phone!!!!
7/27/2009 11:55:35 AM - 001024320926
Lost my cell phone this morning, first time for me, it's either in my car hidden well or on the ground in front of the water dept in Wills Point..........................sigh!
7/27/2009 1:14:04 AM - 002025703401
Mom and I both have a crab hangover.... but it did not stop us from having a "few" bites of the leftover crab today..... :) We also had fried fish and shrimp for the non-crab eaters. It was all yummy, if I must say so myself! And don't even get me started on the appetizers and desserts everyone else brought.... :)
Gonna try to start uploading the pictures from this weekend.
7/26/2009 7:07:47 PM - 001024320926
Jamie texted me this morning saying she had a crab hangover LOL!! Sounds like it was a good time with plenty of crab to eat :) :)
I'm not disappointed in you at all Jamie, you may not have made it to Hobby Lobby but you did order a new tree online!! That's so great, woohoo!! I bought an ornament at Hallmark on Friday and then one at Cracker Barrel on Satrurday :) Probably won't be out doing that today because the husband will be with me and he's not patient with me and Christmas, most of the time I don't care and do what I want though :)
Can't wait to see the pictures from the weekend!!
7/26/2009 7:03:53 PM - 001024320926
Hawaii......I'm in!
7/26/2009 2:20:29 PM - 002025703401
It's 23 days and counting..... that's almost 3 weeks! I think I've got it right this time.....
Went shopping with Mom on Saturday. We were picking up some things for our crab party and the Alaska trip but didn't have time to hit the Christmas dept at Hobby Lobby.... I know Lisa is very disappointed in us. But, I did order a new tree online Saturday morning. :)
Kay and Gina were at the crab party. We discussed all our upcoming trips. Gina says she is going to New York and on the New England cruise next year with us. :) Kay is very excited about Alaska too. :) We even discussed Hawaii in a couple of years. Mom wants to go there BAD! Lisa had better put in on her calendar too!
7/26/2009 2:15:14 AM - 000074469281
OOOO Alaska is coming up! Don't forget your camera!!! Hope you get some Alaskan Crab!! I'm making my rounds visiting sites, sorry its been a long time. You give me TRAVEL FEVER whenever I visit you or some of the other travel Shutterflyers!

7/24/2009 6:22:34 PM - 001024320926
A quote for ya'll:
Curiousity killed the cat, but for a while I was a suspect. ~Steven Wright :)
7/24/2009 6:12:32 PM - 002049843840
Lisa, you crack me up!!!!!
7/24/2009 5:06:26 PM - 001024320926
I have a feeling that COD doesn't mean Crab on Delivery :)
7/24/2009 4:54:28 PM - 002025703401
I could ship the stuff UPS C.O.D.......
7/24/2009 4:24:55 PM - 001024320926
I wished I lived closer too, hey maybe I can arrange that :) I wonder if the office would relocate for me??
Jamie you are taking an extra suitcase just the gifties you're bringing back for your palominos right??
7/24/2009 4:06:33 PM - 002071887921
i guess my invitation go lost in the mail??? =)
7/24/2009 4:02:56 PM - 002067758981
Hey Jean and Lisa, wish you gals were closer.....We're have a crab feast tomorrow nite!!!
7/24/2009 3:30:45 PM - 002049843840
All joking aside, Jamie has handled this week very well with Marcia being gone.....not as crabby as we thought she would be..LOL!
7/24/2009 3:28:02 PM - 002025703401
My suitcase has been out for 2 weeks.... but not packed yet! Clothes are sectioned off in the closet.
Kim is giggling again......
7/24/2009 3:12:28 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, How are things going? What's on the agenda for the weekend? Did you take your suitcase out of the closet yet? You have 25 days left till you sail away and experience the beauty of Alaska. Send me a postcard. Can't wait to receive my documents. I leave exactly 2 months from today and we will have 1 pre-cruise day in London. This will be our first time there. Can't wait!!!! I need to calm down or I'll bring on a heart attack.
Have a great weekend and God bless you.
7/24/2009 3:09:08 PM - 000093706714
Kim...there is just a little speck on your nose.....let me get that for ya! hehehehe JK! And, I do think that Jamie should bring ya'll back some gifts. Mmmm.......in fact....dontcha think she should bring us ALL a gift? I mean, ...world traveler and all.....gotta remember the little people!
7/24/2009 2:43:27 PM - 002049843840
That is true, she is a good boss......we take it for granted sometimes! She will be missed alot when she is in Alaska....but we expect lots of presents, since it is a two week vacation!
7/24/2009 1:27:44 PM - 000093706714
Look at Jamie being a good boss...................I knew there were some sweet bones buried in her! (See.........she isn't crabby ALL of the time!)
7/24/2009 11:05:13 AM - 002025703401
Hey! In all seriousness, the office girls worked really hard Monday thru Thursday morning taking care of some major situations that had come up. By Thursday afternoon, they needed a little comic relief....... :)
7/24/2009 4:32:48 AM - 002049843840
What did I miss??? Or maybe I don't want to know!!
7/24/2009 4:07:28 AM - 001024320926
LOL!!
7/24/2009 3:35:22 AM - 002025703401
Hey! I've got an idea.... Make mother / daughter matching tops..... That would be a great photo....... :)
7/24/2009 3:28:59 AM - 001024320926
Has to be!! Starla will be the next to try it!! I'll take pictures. I'm gonna need: beer, more beer, a camera, cell phone camera, mens underwear and scissors. Operation underwear is a go :) :)
PS: The beer is for Starla!!
7/24/2009 3:14:57 AM - 002029331419
That picture has been around a long time....I bet there's a LOT of silly girls that have tried to put one on - just like the picture! LOL!!
7/24/2009 2:55:47 AM - 001024320926
Cheri, I called Starla on the way home and she let me know that you let her know about what I said. So I said maybe she should check her email better because I sent it to you and said to her in the email. Besides she knows she wants to try it..................some where deep inside when she saw the picture she said to herself Hmmmmmmm!! I wonder.....................
LOL!!! I'll pay for that too!!!!!
7/24/2009 2:52:40 AM - 001024320926
Sold!!! Right down the river......
7/24/2009 1:12:49 AM - 002025703401
Cheri, come 5 o'clock..... don't stand on our stairway!!! Those girls will run you over.... Now, me.... I seem to live there.
Hateraid is allllllll Lisa. :)
7/23/2009 11:59:24 PM - 000093706714
Linda.......now they are all trying to pretend to be busy!
7/23/2009 11:49:50 PM - 002067758981
OK, girls, explain about hateraid!!! What am I missing.........you girls would have gotten in so much trouble if you worked where I did...............ya'll have more fun!!
7/23/2009 11:24:42 PM - 002029331419
Got it! Thanks...that clears it all up!...I have to agree with you..."Just because it fits, doesn't mean you should wear it!." I think that a lot when I'm at the Mall and teens are school clothes shopping ! Ha!
7/23/2009 11:20:37 PM - 002025703401
Jean, I just sent the email to you......
7/23/2009 11:16:38 PM - 002029331419
What garment are you talking about? I missed that part!
7/23/2009 11:15:48 PM - 002025703401
Recyling........
7/23/2009 11:09:50 PM - 000093706714
well, um...you know that fashion garment that you weren't so crazy about? Lisa thought it would be perfect for Starla! Just trying to do my part....ya know, times are tight!
7/23/2009 10:51:51 PM - 002025703401
Cheri, what did Lisa say about Starla?
And.... do you realize we work at a group of car dealerships??? Yeah, right the check is in the mail....... :)
7/23/2009 10:47:37 PM - 000093706714
And Lisa.......just so you know............I told Starla what you said!
7/23/2009 10:46:58 PM - 000093706714
OMG...................checking back for good humor.
You gals better send me a BIG CHECK!
7/23/2009 10:45:04 PM - 002025703401
Cheri, the check is in the mail.....
7/23/2009 10:43:01 PM - 002029331419
Hadn't heard of hateraid...but I think I can get some miles out of it! girlfriend Lisa...snap, snap, snap!
7/23/2009 10:39:12 PM - 001024320926
Cheri heres a five spot will that grease the wheels of silence??
7/23/2009 10:36:48 PM - 000093706714
I just decided to pop back in and see who really IS working....and who is PRETENDING to be! I'm telling.........................
7/23/2009 10:31:52 PM - 001024320926
Yep I had to get to work, imagine that??!! I thought hateraid would trick you up but it worked out to be very funny :) I learned that on TV, watching movies esa :) :) I'm cracking myself up!!!
7/23/2009 9:25:03 PM - 002025703401
Workin....... Like we should be.......
7/23/2009 9:23:35 PM - 002049843840
Where is Lisa? She needs to get on here to defend herself.
7/23/2009 9:16:51 PM - 002025703401
And where did Lisa learn ghetto talk??? In rural Texas?
7/23/2009 9:01:08 PM - 002071887921

7/23/2009 9:00:47 PM - 002079792465
Did I miss something....As far as I can tell Jamie hasn't made it a day without being crabby....Just thought I would get in on the action... Felt left out...LOL
7/23/2009 8:58:49 PM - 002049843840
You love us......and we keep you from going crazy in this place....
And I'm the only shy and good one in this bunch......it's true, it's really true!!!!
7/23/2009 8:56:12 PM - 002025703401
Would you believe, we are actually very shy.........
7/23/2009 8:55:41 PM - 002025703401
It's our "southern charm"........
I try not to be crabby for ONE day..... and all I get is lip!!!
7/23/2009 8:53:38 PM - 002071887921

7/23/2009 8:50:45 PM - 000093706714

7/23/2009 8:40:34 PM - 001024320926
Just when I was feeling good about my new found intelligence!!
7/23/2009 8:38:27 PM - 002049843840

7/23/2009 8:31:07 PM - 002029331419
LOL!!!!! Kim you crack me up! :0)
7/23/2009 8:23:51 PM - 002049843840
You better watch out Lisa, Jamie is buttering you up for something.........
7/23/2009 6:58:36 PM - 001024320926
I am!! Wow!! Finally I have bridged the gap!!
7/23/2009 6:51:52 PM - 002025703401
Owwwwwww! Free wrapping paper idea..... Go to every state's website and order the map to use as wrapping paper for our ornament exchange........
Lisa is soooo smart!!!
7/23/2009 6:42:03 PM - 002071887921
i usually hand kim the camera for pics :)
7/23/2009 6:41:38 PM - 002049843840
It's true, Darla always likes to drive because she doesn't like maps......which is a good thing for me, I get to see the sights more...hehehehe
7/23/2009 6:39:05 PM - 001024320926
Maps are great gift wrap paper :)
7/23/2009 6:38:26 PM - 001024320926
Darla you bumped me and my message for you :)
I sat in the backseat and laughed my tail off at Rider yelling at the GPS. Then I used it the next day and came close to throwing it out the window because I swear that woman was making fun of me, I think I heard her say something about an idiot!! Dang GPS!!
7/23/2009 6:36:41 PM - 002071887921
i can drive alllllll day as long as you don't hand me a map!!!!!
7/23/2009 6:18:17 PM - 002025703401
Did you hear the whistle........... it was coming.........
7/23/2009 6:16:13 PM - 001024320926
Jean, Linda, are ya'll ok?? All I saw was that freight train, US Jamie, slammed right into ya'll!!!!
7/23/2009 6:15:32 PM - 002025703401
Oh, and never, ever let Darla read the map........ per Kim!
7/23/2009 6:14:45 PM - 002025703401
Cheri, do you mean age wise? Well...... all I know is......... you can't be as OLD as Jean or Linda...... :)
7/23/2009 6:10:59 PM - 002071887921
lisa...i know exactly what you mean on the GPS. on our road trips, i am usually the one to drive, and kim navigates..when i see my exit, GPS lady keeps telling me "keep right...keep right". i just want to say "lady, im not blind!!!!!"...but she has gotten us out of some shady places. :)
7/23/2009 6:02:14 PM - 000093706714
where am I????
7/23/2009 5:43:14 PM - 002067758981
Jean, I'm going to get me one of those rocks!!!
7/23/2009 5:42:22 PM - 002067758981
Well, that leaves me out..........Jamie, even I'm not that old...............or maybe I am. hehehe Jean, really!!!
7/23/2009 5:28:40 PM - 001024320926
LOL!!! Weather rock!!! I have heard of those before!! LOL!!!
7/23/2009 4:53:45 PM - 002049843840
She thinks she's so funny sometimes......but then reality comes a knockin'.......LOL!!!
7/23/2009 4:47:36 PM - 002029331419
Good thing you have a day job...... ;0)
7/23/2009 4:02:58 PM - 002025703401
And what did I say......... stone age.......... LOL! I'm soooo funny!!! :)
7/23/2009 3:59:53 PM - 002029331419
Linda. I put it out in the yard. If it's wet, it's raining - if you can see a shadow, it's sunny - if you don't see a shadow, it's cloudy - if it's white, it's snowing - if you cannot find it, we just had a blizzard! :0) :0) See how that works? And it has never been wrong! :0)
7/23/2009 3:33:47 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, you better be nice to Jean!!! But she did ask for that one. What the heck is an Indian Weather Rock?
7/23/2009 3:08:49 PM - 002025703401
That's my name........
7/23/2009 2:59:17 PM - 002029331419
MARCIA!!!........Hurry up and get back here...!!!
Jamie Leigh...........................................
7/23/2009 2:55:31 PM - 002025703401
You know Jean is OLDER than us...... Stone age ring a bell...... :) :) :)
7/23/2009 2:46:24 PM - 002029331419
Nope...but I have an Indian Weather Rock...
7/23/2009 2:20:37 PM - 001024320926
Do you wear a sundail on your wrist too?? :) :) :)
7/23/2009 3:16:51 AM - 002029331419
I Don"t have a GPS, BMW or a MAC.....but I do have a map, the sun and the Mountains...that's how I get around. Oh..except Boston, if you don't live there - don't drive it!
I do like the Hanzel and Grettel commercial though!
7/23/2009 2:34:11 AM - 002049843840
Tested my DVD player, still getting stuck, I guess that means I need a new one.....bummer!
I yell at my GPS also, thought about throwing it out the window a couple of times....kept telling us to go a way that we couldn't and this was in downtown Seattle, after a baseball game and we were very tired and crabby.....that was the worst time we have had with it. But it does keep repeating itself and we yell back at it too......
7/23/2009 12:33:06 AM - 001024320926
Rider gave his GPS a choice name too!! I would say to him you know she can't hear you and he would get even madder!!
Your poor Mom is gonna worry about them :(
7/22/2009 11:58:17 PM - 002025703401
Dad and my brother are in-charge of "baby" sitting while we are gone. Dixie, Maddie, and Mom may need counseling.....
Do you remember The Jetson's. Well.... our GPS sounds just like Rosie the robot. She is very pushy and demanding. We even have an ugly last name for her......
7/22/2009 11:44:01 PM - 001024320926
We used GPS to go to Galveston, the back way to 45 from here. It saved us an hour I'm sure. But I think it was yelling at us too, turn right in .2 miles, turn right in .1 miles, turn right on County road 12, turn right, turn right..........recalculating.................turn left in .1 mile.
It was hilarious because Rider was driving and he was yelling at the GPS......I'm turning, I turned, Why won't it shut up I turned!! I was of no help what's so ever because I was rolling laughing at him (he didn't appreciate it either). It's still funny!!
7/22/2009 11:40:13 PM - 001024320926
What's that poor little Dixie gonna do while ya'll are gone? She's going to need counseling!!
7/22/2009 11:37:00 PM - 002067758981
Dixie is doing pretty well, had stitches out Monday. Vet said we were very lucky. Still have to keep her as calm as possible and can not jump. Right now, she growling at me to pick her up. She was rotten before, now is really rotten.
7/22/2009 9:32:16 PM - 000093706714
aught oh.......maybe we won't be good traveling buddies. Reading thru the thread, I see you can read a map! And the one time I was in a car with a GPS, I am pretty sure that it YELLED at me!
After years of TRYING to get my geographic bearings, I gave up and resigned myself to the fact that the 'little' detours I often make are simply.....OPPORTUNITIES FOR ME TO MEET FRIENDS ALONG THE WAY! hehehe Oh, I could soooooo entertain you girls with some of my travels! hehehe
Hope you are all doing well. I got news that I will be in this dang cast for another 3 weeks and then we will start discussing a walking bootie!
Now....Kim & Jamie...........GET BACK TO WORK!
Hugs
Cheri
P.S. How is Dixie doing? Haven't seen any postings on her lately. Hope that means she is running around and feeling frisky again!
7/22/2009 9:19:57 PM - 002049843840
Oh that is so sad :(
7/22/2009 8:54:07 PM - 002025703401
Workin.....
7/22/2009 8:33:06 PM - 002049843840
What you are doing in there???? Miss Three Weeks to Alaska!!!
7/22/2009 8:29:44 PM - 002049843840
It was break time, I would never look up personnal stuff on company time.....geezzzzz!
7/22/2009 8:28:37 PM - 002025703401
On company time????? You and Darla...... Do I need to come in there???? Maybe find someone a project.......
7/22/2009 8:20:43 PM - 002049843840
You are going to freak out, but I'm just now looking for hotels in Philly!!!
7/22/2009 8:20:12 PM - 002049843840
you bumped me too!
7/22/2009 8:19:56 PM - 002067758981
Kim, you bumped me!!
7/22/2009 8:19:17 PM - 002049843840
Jamie Leigh!!!!
7/22/2009 8:18:32 PM - 002025703401
Kimberly........
7/22/2009 8:16:54 PM - 002049843840
Jamie is driving in NM.....nobody told me that...oh well, she is a good driver! Lisa you will be laughing trust me!!
7/22/2009 8:09:03 PM - 002025703401
Maps, but I have a new GPS named Rosy..... She and I had differences of opinion...... often....
Some of my co-travelers are soooo bad at reading maps, I usually memorize the map each day before we head out...... NERD!
7/22/2009 8:07:46 PM - 002029331419
With a Map in one hand and an GPS in the other?
7/22/2009 8:07:10 PM - 002025703401
But, I'm very good with north and south, east and west. I'm never lost, but I have to think about how to tell you to turn.... :) I'm a nerdy goober......
7/22/2009 8:03:33 PM - 002025703401
I have to check where my watch is, then.......
7/22/2009 8:02:45 PM - 002029331419
"Your other Left... Your other Left!! Oh, that's the Right...I mean Right, Turn Right...Great!! You just missed our turn! " .............he he he he! :0)
I could see them smiling...really big...when the are introduced to the Vacation Nazi! :0)
7/22/2009 8:01:17 PM - 002025703401
Then know this.... don't tell me right or left. It is this away or that away.... depending on which side of the car I'm in. Kay and Gina say I'm very consistent about that.
7/22/2009 7:58:57 PM - 001024320926
They think you're great :) :) Kimberly too :) :) Being met with a smile isn't a bad thing :) Remember you're driving in NM, so I reserve the right to backseat drive, laugh at your mistakes and give my 2 cents worth.
7/22/2009 7:47:34 PM - 002025703401
I'm always afraid to meet coworkers. First it was Kay's and Gina's, and now Lisa's......
I always get a smile and a "so you're Jamie"..... What do you guys tell them?
OK, so I can't tell time either..... and the difference between right or left too (it makes for fun roadtrips)....
7/22/2009 6:28:28 PM - 001024320926
LOL!!!!
7/22/2009 6:16:37 PM - 002049843840
Suck Up!!!!
7/22/2009 5:23:14 PM - 001024320926
Jamie, next week is almost here and then it will be 3 weeks!!
7/22/2009 5:06:21 PM - 001024320926
I brag about Jamie here at work:) They practically know her :)
7/22/2009 4:07:00 PM - 002049843840
I'm not knocking it.....looking forward to it on upcoming trips......no thinking, just doing!!!!
7/22/2009 3:43:32 PM - 002067758981
You've got that right. So I would not knock it!!!!
7/22/2009 3:09:12 PM - 002049843840
I would never ever gloat about me being right and Jamie being wrong......that's just crazy!!!
She loves to plan and that is a good thing, because her travel companions don't have to think about anything, just pack and go, right?
7/22/2009 3:03:05 PM - 002067758981
Kim, we always pack too much!! I'm thinking of carrying less and buying what I need when I get there....lol I knew it was 4 weeks from yesterday. DUH 27 days equal 3 weeks and 6 days!!!!!! Kim, do not pick on my travel guide too much. I really think she likes it.....hehehe
7/22/2009 2:48:00 PM - 002025703401
And to think I was starting to panic about all the things I needed to do...... Why do you think I was working on my stuff last night?
7/22/2009 2:41:53 PM - 002049843840
Just think that gives you another week to gather up all your crap that you think you need......ya'll are gonna be sore from all the heavy, overpacked luggage you will have to lug around....LOL!! I packed way to much stuff for our trip.
7/22/2009 2:37:37 PM - 002025703401
I was actually wrong.....
Write it down......
In my excitement, I counted 3 weeks in my head..... {sigh}....... it's still 4 weeks.......
Mom will be soooo disappointed! :)
7/22/2009 2:30:20 PM - 001024320926
Kim, LOL!! You're not sorry!! That is tooo funny!!
7/22/2009 2:16:03 PM - 002049843840
Jamie according to my math, it was 4 weeks from yesterday that ya'll will be in Anchorage....sorry to burst your bubble.......
7/22/2009 2:02:56 PM - 002029331419
Electronics stuff.......must have felt like Christmas Morning! he he
Jamie...Thanks for helping me last night!
Linda - There's nothing like having a personal IT guru to travel with - especially if your going somewhere none of you have been before! :0) ..... That's why I travel with Steve (my Hubby)! LOL!
7/22/2009 1:25:45 PM - 001024320926
I miss out on everything.
7/22/2009 11:21:46 AM - 002067758981
See Jean, Kay and I are so lucky to have Jamie to take care of all these things.
7/22/2009 3:31:40 AM - 002025703401

7/22/2009 3:25:59 AM - 002029331419
GPS?
7/22/2009 3:20:04 AM - 002025703401
No, I was working on all my electronic stuff..... for Alaska.... :)
7/22/2009 3:19:05 AM - 002029331419
Did I wake you up?
7/22/2009 3:13:36 AM - 002025703401

7/22/2009 2:45:53 AM - 001023411097
Yes I take it off and exactly 3 days everything is moving too fast. I have it off as of today and we will see. Our ship was rocking in the Gulf of Alaska, if I have it right. The inside passage was ok. Only when we were sailing into Seward. WOW I love your Alaska page already. You are a planner. Love it, bj
7/22/2009 2:22:36 AM - 001023411097
Jamie I can't wait until you can get up to Alaska!!!! Who all is going, I want lots of pics. OK!
barbaraj I have a new site http://jansastravel.shutterfly.com I combined all the other travel pages into one! hugs bj
7/22/2009 1:26:03 AM - 002025703401
Do you realize that three weeks from today, we will almost be in Anchorage Alaska????
7/21/2009 9:00:20 PM - 002067758981
No Lisa, she did not need a new project!!! She thinks of things she can do at night, you notice she has been quiet again today...........she's 'busy' with work at work. Oh yes, I am so excited.....days seem to be flying.
7/21/2009 3:51:20 PM - 001024320926
Linda you have to be getting even more excited with the trip getting so close :) I'm getting excited for ya'll :) Bummer on the a/c problems!! I wouldn't want to be the person you're giving your piece of mind to.
Jamie did you really need a new project to do right in the middle of packing?
7/21/2009 3:17:11 PM - 001076975951
OH my 28 days left....it's is getting close and so exciting. Get the suitcases out and leave room for all the extra souvenirs. Jamie, thanks for the packing list.
have a good day and I think I'll make my daily exploring of you garden.
7/21/2009 1:28:37 PM - 002067758981
Hey girls, I'm here. Me and the girls, Dixie and Maddie, are just chillin. Husband called to say a/c unit just repaired and re-installed iced up and would not cool at 3 AM. GGGRRR!!! Going to give repairman a piece of my mind as soon as they call me back. If you have a Conn's in your area, BEWARE.
7/21/2009 10:52:49 AM - 002025703401
Sorry, that I didn't have time to play last night...... Aunt Janet was trolling around on my site yesterday, and saw some pictures she wants to hang on the wall in her newly remodeled bathroom. So, she called and asked for some of my sea bird pictures. (See Jean, I respond to phone calls first......) Then, I decided to make Janet a DVD of family pictures too.
7/21/2009 3:33:43 AM - 002025703401
Mom is busy... Went to the vet today to have Dixie's stitches removed..... Limited movement still for a while.
Dad and Uncle Bubba left for beach house for boys fishing week..... She was busy getting rid of him! :)
I spent all of Sunday afternoon helping her pick out Alaska clothes.... and Kay says I have a clothes problem...... Mom has me beat by a long shot!
7/21/2009 3:31:27 AM - 001024320926
Where's Linda and Dixie? Everyone doing ok?? I'm headed to bed but I'll check this first thing in the morning.
7/21/2009 3:30:04 AM - 001024320926
Sweet!
7/21/2009 3:29:15 AM - 002025703401
A List??? Oh Boy...... I'm working on a project (getting a new netbook) so I can keep in touch with work..... But, thinking about writing a journal or something...... for you guys..... :) What do you think?
7/21/2009 3:17:12 AM - 001024320926
Wow, in the 20's, that's just amazing. Your trip is gonna be here before you know it. Hey I need to work on my list for the things I want you to do while you're there :) Jean I'll run it by you too.
7/21/2009 3:10:19 AM - 000093706714
28 Days! Glad to hear you are considering bringing the undies.....I hear that it is really cold there! hehehehehe
7/21/2009 3:04:44 AM - 002025703401
My aunt broke in line......
7/21/2009 3:02:50 AM - 002029331419
...are you picking out some pictures to send to me too?
7/21/2009 2:53:38 AM - 002025703401
Hey! I'm working on a project for my Aunt Janet........
7/21/2009 2:44:46 AM - 002029331419
There must be another packing meeting taking place.....he he!
7/21/2009 2:19:10 AM - 002049843840
Hello is anybody home?
7/20/2009 2:07:57 PM - 001024320926
I think I'm gonna be Rhonda's new best friend!
I'm thinking about adding a film strip to my Christmas page for people to add ornaments, what do ya think?
7/20/2009 2:00:08 PM - 002029331419
Sorry Girls....one of those evenings. First your on the computer, then you leave the house and meet up with friends and it's one of those 'wow...we need to get home - it's late!'...and so I never got back on. Ahhh come on ...give a girl a little slack...it's been a busy weekend! :0)
Ok, so Rhonda is at this family get together a couple of weekends ago, talking to a cousin of her hubby..and she starts talking about 'roping'...they are quite the rodeo family up in Colorado...and she says something about George Strait coming to rope with Tom, her hubby. So Rhonda says "Your telling me that Tom and George are roping buddies and he comes up here to rope a few times a year..............AND YOU NEVER MENTIONED THAT LITTLE DETAIL TO ME UNTIL NOW?".....and she's says "I've just never thought much about it, they've been friends for years and he just comes over" ..... So!! Rhonda made her promise that the next time he comes....they have her over to visit!! I just might have to drop Everything and Drive to Pueblo that weekend........YA THINK?!?!?! Isn't that cool?...well, I told her...I have to tell Sfly girls...since they kinda remember who George is. LOL :0) he he....
7/20/2009 1:38:11 AM - 002025703401
Sorry, I was talking trip clothes on the phone with Kay..... :) And, I've got to put up my last load of laundry....... later. :)
7/20/2009 1:36:49 AM - 002049843840
Yea, so what's the rest of this George Strait story? She left us hanging.
7/20/2009 1:36:08 AM - 002049843840
They were like an hour away and it was 5ish here.
7/20/2009 1:32:01 AM - 002025703401
Notice how Jean likes to drop little bomb teasers......
7/20/2009 1:31:02 AM - 002025703401
Last text she was in VA
7/20/2009 1:30:25 AM - 002049843840

Which topic George, underwear or bathing suits?
7/20/2009 1:27:49 AM - 002025703401
You and Lisa seem to like the topic.......
7/20/2009 1:27:29 AM - 002049843840
Bathing suits and Alaska just don't go together, been there and know how cold it is on the water!!!!

7/20/2009 12:48:47 AM - 002025703401
George Strait!! That man is still HOT!!!!
Spent the afternoon at Mom's going thru her clothes for Alaska..... and making shrimp etouffe. YUM!!! I even took a picture of the pot..... :) Oh by the way, we decide to take underwear but no bathing suits, especially after Mom put hers on and I laughed out loud!!! I'm soooo bad! ;)
I also showed Mom all of Barb's beautiful Alaska pictures. We were looking closely to see what everyone was wearing in the pictures....
See guys, the travel fever is contagious and spreading.........
7/19/2009 11:34:41 PM - 002029331419

Underwear...............optional??!! LOL!!! You're gonna need powder for the chaffing :) :) I'm on the floor now :) :) Make it stop :)
Isn't it gonna be chilly in Alaska?
7/19/2009 8:52:32 PM - 002049843840
I'm really starting to like your New York idea, I know you can't talk about it until after Alaska, but I checked some prices and it's not any more expensive than flying anywhere else ($237 Continental, Houston to LaGaurdia). So count me in and we'll see who else wants to go.
7/19/2009 12:19:45 PM - 002025703401
THIRTY days and counting.......
And yes Kim we did discuss packing last night...... The main argument was over carpi pants.... :) And the fact Kay thought underwear was optional...... That should wind her up!!! LOL! :)
Update: Jean has her spa pictures up...... And she was correct, I made a total mess with my coffee when I saw them....... :)
7/19/2009 4:24:41 AM - 001024320926

Hey! I sent pictures to Lisa too!!! Spread the torture around. Kay thought the casserole was good too! We had a packing list meetin'..... :) Kay followed me home to pickup the clothes I was giving her.... She nearly had a heart attack over the size of the pile. (Sucker).... :) Did you know that we leave for Alaska in less than a month?????
Go is my middle name!! :) Kay would not commit to Fredericksburg because of the house move. But, my friend Billie who lives outside of Austin is meeting us there. Still need to work on Gina. :)
And Kimberly had mexican food for lunch... I should know since I paid the bill! :)
7/19/2009 3:00:37 AM - 002049843840

7/18/2009 12:50:41 PM - 001023411097
Hi Jamie, Love coming here to visit. I need to take time a look around. Vacations are fun and you will have a blast in Alaska. Tell me more about the trip. Only one thing we wish we had not spent so much on and that was the Misty Fjiords because we have already been there. It was still beautiful. I want to know about your upcoming trip. barbaraj
7/18/2009 12:21:00 PM - 002025703401
I sent you an email Joanne.......
7/18/2009 11:53:17 AM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie....31 days and counting. I am sure you are so excited!!!!
The final payment for our cruise is due this week. And once it is paid I feel that we are officially set. I am so excited I can burst. Do you have anything to add to my packing list that I have left off? You are a more seasoned traveler and maybe I left an item or two off my list.
All your upcoming and planned trips sound like fun, I'm sure you'll have an amazing time. Have a great weekend Jamie and I will explore your site more to see what is new next week.
7/18/2009 11:38:12 AM - 002025703401
Lisa, what did I tell you about positive thinking........ :)
In reference to New Mexico, I think you can add that we are gonna share a lotta laughs and some MEXICAN food too! :) :) We would love for anyone else who can make the trip to meet us.
Lisa, Kim, Linda, and I are also planning a girlie shopping weekend in Fredericksburg Texas for the weekend before Thanksgiving (Nov 21). Again, we would love for anyone else who can make the trip to meet us!
In 2010, we are looking at a trip to the Holland Michigan Tulip Festival the first weekend in May to meet up with Cheri. And in September, a trip to New York City to meet Joanne.
Lisa, I mention Hawaii to Mom and she said when are we going? Keep that in mind for 2011 or 2012. The vacation nazi strikes again!!! :) I will have your trips planned out for the next 10 years. :) Add in your work trips, and someone is going to be a VERY busy woman!!! :)
Kim - I didn't receive any packages yesterday..... :O( You are soooo funny. :)
7/18/2009 5:01:23 AM - 001024320926

I'm good with getting up early if I'm getting to do something fun :) Can't wait. Alaska is definitely tops! I can't wait to go someday :) Until then all the little trips I take will keep the fever down. Do you realize that in a mere 3 days you'll be in the 20's of your count down!!
7/16/2009 7:31:05 PM - 002049843840
I don't do mornings......leave me in bed please!!!!!
7/16/2009 7:06:03 PM - 002029331419
Alaska is going to be FANTASTIC.......NM is to just keep you happy until Christmas! ....I loved AK ...and I want to go back!!

7/16/2009 4:04:53 PM - 002029331419
Linda & Jamie...I put the Hot Air Balloon Pics back up - to give you a good idea of the Morning and Night Balloon Glow Events ....and it adds more color to my site! :0)
7/16/2009 3:03:05 PM - 002049843840
I'll second that, she is a goober!!!
7/16/2009 2:52:23 PM - 002025703401
Craig (my boss) caught me before I even made it to my office this morning......
Mom - what do you mean by me telling you how to do it..... These people are gonna think I'm bossy and picky!!! (Just tell me to punch the time-clock like Kay and Gina do......)
Lisa and Starla - I can't read. The postcard is from Starla. Kim had to correct me.... I thought it was signed Stalker..... LOL!!! I'm a goober....... :)
Thank You! Starla :)
7/16/2009 1:55:03 PM - 002067758981
Where's Jamie? Sure quite today, huh? We'll just have to think of something else she needs to make lists for...........any suggestions? hehehehehe
7/16/2009 1:48:53 PM - 002029331419
"If not, we would not do it to suit her and she'd be telling us how to do it better"....LOL!!LOL!!
I know a few MORE people like that!! And If I can pull off a cyber party...she can so do an ornament exchange!!!
7/16/2009 1:10:36 PM - 001024320926
Snap!! I love your mother Jamie :) Love her!!
Jamie are you really just now getting your Vancouver postcards??
7/16/2009 12:25:15 PM - 002067758981
What train hit you, Lisa? I'm sorry I didn't hear any warnings. Did Jean and Jamie gang up on you again? lol
I'm all for Jamie being in charge of something. If not, we would not do it to suit her and she'd be telling us how to do it better.....hehehe
7/16/2009 11:43:16 AM - 001024320926
No rain here!! I would love it though. Supposed to rain this weekend :)
Jamie with your superior list making skills I am sure you can pull off an Christmas Ornament exchange :) I have faith in you :) Even Linda says that you and her exchange ornaments :) I love that Linda didn't push you in front of the train, just a gentle nudge :) :) I am still smarting from my train wounds..................ouch, still can put full weight on my pinky :)
7/16/2009 10:14:51 AM - 002025703401
It's raining this morning!!! Looks like more thunderstorms moving in off the Gulf on the radar. Sorry Jean, but it looks like our high pressure and heat has moved into your area.
7/16/2009 4:28:14 AM - 002055694880
Everyone does it different. We do it all school...the ornament exchange....and there is five ladies so we all buy five ornaments (we each get one of our own so we buy ones we like the ones we don't we regift...sshhhh) Sorta like that I would think. There are so many of us tho....we may just need to have someone draw names for everyone.
7/16/2009 2:52:03 AM - 002025703401
Cool! Since I'm in charge of something I know nothing about......
7/16/2009 2:39:49 AM - 002029331419
Linda - So glad Dixie is a little better! I walked Sadie tonight and there was a big dog and a little dog...the big one wasn't to sure about Sadie, but the little one came charging over to her (I think she thought this little furry thing was a rabbit) and it kinda freaked her out...they yap yap yap, I bet it weighed all of pound and a half!! LOL!
Jamie...we'll work on the ornament details tomorrow...since your not going to LA..and I better post this before I get bumped..I'm not writing it again! ha!
7/16/2009 1:57:10 AM - 002025703401
OH!! I almost forgot (yes Starla, I'm old)......... Guess what I got today in the mail!! The Stalker sent me a post card...... LOL!!!
7/16/2009 1:46:44 AM - 002067758981
33 Days Jamie!!!!
7/16/2009 1:45:28 AM - 002067758981
Yes, she's on drugs!!! Hobbling about around like a little ole woman. But she still thinks she's BAD. I think the smaller they are, the louder they are. That's ok with me, she nearly took my brother down this morning. lol Was so happy to see him and Marianne too. Guess she's tired of Joe and I hovering around her. The Bubba was afraid to pick her up, did not want to hurt her.
7/16/2009 1:38:20 AM - 002055694880
Ok so I had a boxer pup one time and we had just moved into a new house. We had just turned all the lights out to watch tv. I collect pigs and I have this huge piggy bank that sits on the floor and the dog saw it in the kitchen and started going crazy........We thought someone was coming in the kitchen door. When we figured out what he was barking at we laughed for an hour....Jason stayed on the couch under the covers,....................CHICKEN!
7/16/2009 1:36:21 AM - 002055694880
You bumped me but that's well worth it! LOL!
7/16/2009 1:35:53 AM - 002025703401
LOL!!! It's pea size...... Isn't she still on drugs........ :)
7/16/2009 1:31:11 AM - 002067758981
Dixie girl is still a big bad ole watch dog!!! Woke up on her back, all four feet in the air, and saw Maddie's bed (had been moved)................thought someone was breaking in....barked for I know 15 min. Growled until I finally had to move the thing and she settled right down....Aren't puppies fun? Her little head is not very big, so the brain can't be big but we love her.....lol
7/16/2009 1:27:14 AM - 002067758981
Why not? You know, it's all about ME (and you)!!!
7/16/2009 1:24:46 AM - 002025703401
Me and you don't count......
7/16/2009 1:23:15 AM - 002067758981
Jamie, we may not call it exchange but you and I have always bought each other ornaments.
How many trips have we been on and found cute stuff?
7/16/2009 1:11:13 AM - 002025703401
I keep tell Jean and Lisa, our elders, that I've never done an ornament exchange!!! Jean is going to have to explain the rules to me........ :)
7/15/2009 11:58:55 PM - 002055694880
Hey Quick Draw McGraw! i posted another and if you get it real quick I will just have to find a harder one!
Jamie....Buy and ornament and someone will give you a name and you send to someone. or are we doing exchange with all?!???!?!?!?
7/15/2009 10:14:00 PM - 002025703401
MOTHER!!!! They're picking on me!!!!! HELP!
7/15/2009 9:59:58 PM - 002029331419
OHHHHH Lindaaaaa!!! I think Jamie is trying to pull a fast one (ye, color you surprised - NOT) and she says she has never done an ornament exchange....serious??? I'll believe you...what ever you say!
7/15/2009 6:59:22 PM - 001024320926
We have to do the ornament exchange..............HAVE TO!! I would love it sooo much. I sent the Taco Casserole recipe out for you and Jean and I posted it on Elle's Diner too.
PS: I get to wear scrubs to work every day, no ironing, well as long as I get them out of the dryer before they have time to wrinkle then I do iron :)
7/15/2009 4:35:14 PM - 000093706714
Ok, ok.....I know that I have been TOTALLY BORING! No updates to my site, no new pics...nothing, nadda! But in my defense, I could use ONE extra hand. My other two are occupied manueavering the crutches and walker! I WILL get some new stuff posted soon. Promise......no list required! The good news is that I have had a small streak of inspiration and creativity hit me and have started working on my album to celebrate our anniversary. I might be quiet for the next few days and visit when I need a break. I don't know why I procrastinated so long.........but I have always been a gal that works really well under pressure so we will see what I can produce prior to the date.
Getting very excited for you, your mom and Kay about the trip.........TICK, TOCk.....another day closer! Have a GREAT day!
7/15/2009 4:17:22 PM - 002067758981
Jamie must be in 'meetin', haven't heard from her. And I have company all morning.
7/15/2009 4:08:00 PM - 002029331419

Battery dead or computer is locked
7/15/2009 3:39:20 AM - 001024320926
Dang! I'm sorry!
7/15/2009 3:39:05 AM - 002025703401

7/15/2009 3:38:57 AM - 001024320926

7/15/2009 3:38:40 AM - 002025703401

7/15/2009 3:30:38 AM - 002025703401
There is also a packing list and a todo list..... ;o)
7/15/2009 3:29:08 AM - 002025703401
I'm a nerd, so sue me...... :) I will research a topic to death......
7/15/2009 3:28:24 AM - 002029331419
OK>>>I have to say LOL!! That is truly a travel document like none othere..except if your a travel agent! ha!! It's funny and amazing at the same time! You have everything right there!...no room for something at the spur of the moment? But, you won't get lost!! I'm still chuckling!...only because I do at least a page or two for our travels..but part of the time - I forget it! ha
Well, all i can say is it keeps you busy doesn"t it!! lol!!
7/15/2009 3:14:29 AM - 002025703401
No, actually this is the first time I've fooled around with a website......
I work with computer programs all day at work........ but this is fun!!!!!
And involves my two hobbies; travel and photography.....
And who told you I was a computer nerd? Kimberly!!!!
7/15/2009 3:11:25 AM - 002029331419
Hey...I know it's your deep secret superhero cover on being a computer nerd...but have you ever built a website with web easy...I know this is a random question ... but just wondering.
7/15/2009 3:08:41 AM - 002025703401
Yes! A bunch of us have talked about going to Alaska for years. Well, when push came to shove, me, Kay, and Mom were the only ones serious about going......
I'm gonna send you an email to show just how weird I am about this trip..... :)
7/15/2009 3:05:17 AM - 002029331419
And you've researched everything, booked everything and now it's getting to be more real! I getcha girl!...is this your biggest trip so far?
7/15/2009 3:04:05 AM - 002025703401
It seems like a lifetime ago that we started planning this trip and now time is finally starting to speed up........
7/15/2009 3:02:38 AM - 002029331419
And we leave the 19th!! yiippee
7/15/2009 2:59:01 AM - 002025703401
Tuesday the 18th..... YEAH!!!!
7/15/2009 2:57:31 AM - 002029331419
I guess it's just you and me on tonight...
What day do you leave for AK?
7/15/2009 2:43:43 AM - 002025703401
Holiday Inn - a) because they are everywhere, b) they are usually clean (Mom is a clean freak & very anal about this), and c) their point program is good. Kim does Best Western points. Where we travel, generally in small towns, there is usually a HI or BW.....
In reference to Sat in NM, that is what I was thinking too... great minds, etc, etc............ :)
On Sun, more balloon stuff, the tram, and maybe Santa Fe (that place you sent me a link on this morning)? Oh, and more Mexican food.... when in Rome......... LOL!!!
7/15/2009 2:35:43 AM - 002029331419
And if you guys want to do Old Town...that'd be a great spot for lunch when you come in on Sat, shopping and then the Balloon Glow..you guys would be worn out!...but happy!
7/15/2009 2:34:39 AM - 002029331419
Jamie....since you are a self proclaimed travel addict..Why do you guys use Holiday Inns?
VS...Best Western's, Hyatt's, Ramada's...etc...
7/15/2009 2:21:56 AM - 002025703401
Lisa, let me know when and I'll force myself to meet you!!! Please don't twist my arm so hard making me eat Blue Bell...... LOL!!!
A surprise picture???? Does this have something to do with crab? You did promise me something crabby..... Hummmmm........ crabby.........
And don't forget that recipe for taco casserole either...... :) You are so making us blow our diets!
Jean, put the Christmas store on our NM list!
And Starla, we've got to introduce you to Cajun food! If you like spicy Mexican food, then you'll like Cajun.
Speaking of lists...... technically, this is a list....... :o)
7/15/2009 12:07:50 AM - 001024320926
No but I want to, that's something I've talked about doing for some time now.
Jamie I forgot about the surprise picture I took for you. I'll do that when I do the recipe for the taco casserole tomorrow :)
7/14/2009 11:25:42 PM - 002025703401
So Lisa, have you ever been to the Blue Bell shrine in Brenham?
7/14/2009 11:07:41 PM - 001024320926
Ice cream?? Blue Bell??? I'm there! What time?
Jamie I am a Christmas nut, love it!! We have to go to the store in NM :) Have too!!!
7/14/2009 9:40:02 PM - 002055694880
Jamie tell them that you still have to go....I don't have to work on Friday...hint hint!
I took some of my test today.. It is going to be like a three day test. I was there for two hours and only finished four lessons. I am pooped!
7/14/2009 8:30:43 PM - 002071551455
Hmmmm you may be right. She is awfully quiet in there.
7/14/2009 8:26:04 PM - 002029331419
Have a Fantastic trip Marcia!! Comme out Jamie...you know you want too! :0) I think she's internet shopping for something fab to wear on the Cruise that is Only 34 days away!! :0)
7/14/2009 8:20:58 PM - 002071551455
Come on over! The more the merrier. Jamie is locked up in her office. I am not sure if she is locking us out or herself in. I will be gone next week to Washington DC so I think she is playing catch up. I am in count down mode 3 days to go
7/14/2009 8:09:54 PM - 002029331419
Yay...Jamie has to stay home... Marcia, I'll have a scoop of that ice cream! :0)
7/14/2009 7:54:48 PM - 002071551455
Oh no say it ain't so. I already ordered the ice cream. Guess you will just have to join us.
We can get some more of those fruit bars.
7/14/2009 7:38:15 PM - 002025703401
I know this is going to really upset "some party people". But, it is looking like I won't have to make the Louisiana roadtrip this week...... :)
7/14/2009 6:22:19 PM - 001024320926
I blame Starla too, how could she not have introduced that young mind to Elvis.........all I can do is shake my head and plot my mission, Operation Elvis - Youth of America :)
7/14/2009 6:20:28 PM - 001024320926
Well as soon as I leave here I will head to Jean's for a looky at the 'back then' pictures (that's what Nick calls them :)
Jamie, take Kim :) she was whining about how she never gets to go anywhere with the boss :)

If anyone is bored .... I got a few scanned pics of Steve and I up...from once upon a time - REMEMBER!! This was 30 years ago in San Diego!
7/14/2009 4:23:23 PM - 002049843840
She has a roadtrip partner, Billy remember, she doesn't need me........and as for a party, I don't know what you are talking about!
7/14/2009 3:46:17 PM - 002067758981
Sounds like its 'get Jamie out of the office day so we can PARTY', is that what I am picking up? I really don't want her to have to go alone, take Kim with you Jamie.
7/14/2009 3:13:34 PM - 002071551455
I think she can't make up her mind when she is leaving so we can't plan a party in the office. Anyone for Ice cream?
7/14/2009 3:06:56 PM - 002049843840
Yeah that's it.....worried about her on that long drive.....you are so right Jean.
7/14/2009 3:02:24 PM - 002029331419
Jamie.......not that we're anxious for you to leave....but that we're concerned for your safety during the trip! .... Right Kim!!!
7/14/2009 2:10:28 PM - 002025703401
If I go, not til probably Thursday. Working on their stuff now. Trying to get out of making the trip. Sorry to disappoint you guys.................
7/14/2009 2:06:23 PM - 002029331419
The thing about Elvis' music is that when it came out... it had all of the girls just in mush over him - - today...his music is just fun! ... Rock a Hula...come on now!! That's fun stuff! It really is good road trip music...it makes ya sing! :0)... Ok, it makes me sing!! ha ha
Jamie...when do you head to LA?
7/14/2009 1:38:18 PM - 002055694880
No I don't listen to Elvis..When I was a kid I used to watch his movies on TV but I never got into the Elvis things. I know a little about celebs but none more that others. I Know I listen to a variety of music and if its' not played on the radio or we have not bought the cd then I'm probably not listening to it.
I am off to clean today....the babysitting is OVER! Then off to take my managers test. So I will be back later....don't trash me to much today over Elvis. I'll ask K'Lee what she REALLY thinks!
7/14/2009 11:26:18 AM - 002025703401
Lisa, get that child for the weekend. On the drive to your house play nothing but the King in the car. Then, when you have her trapped at your house, start the Elvis movie marathon...... :) Brain wash her before it's too late!!!!
Or if the situation is really bad, load her in the car (playing nothin but Elvis) and drive to Memphis. Make her tour the shrine!!! LOL! :)
This situation is totally her mother's fault. Someone (Starla), obviously doesn't listen to the King........ You should start on K'Lee's sister now while she is still young enough to easily brain wash. :)
7/14/2009 4:35:10 AM - 002055694880
She would just laugh......
7/14/2009 3:57:26 AM - 001024320926
Lemme get my hands on that kid :)
7/14/2009 2:36:45 AM - 002055694880
I was telling K'lee that I put it on here and was telling everyone and for about an hour she ran around going....Mom check to see if anyone said anything...hey mom did anyone say anything. She thought it was quite funny especially when i told her aunt Lisa tells everyone that is her dad. She said ...... they don't even look alike. Why would she want him to be her dad. LOL!! Love that kid!!
7/14/2009 1:59:37 AM - 002067758981
LOL Lisa, picture of taco casserole is making me hungry for mexican food!!!
7/14/2009 1:56:23 AM - 001024320926
Exactly!! I almost called CPS on Starla :) Don't you worry I will educate her on the King :) Love my Elvis!!! Can't believe she doesn't know Elvis, it's a sad day! I told her I was going to have her Mom put earphones on her at night while she sleeps playing the best of Elvis :) She thinks I'm kidding til one day she wakes up singing 'You ain't nothing but a hound dog' :)
7/14/2009 1:10:33 AM - 002025703401
Lisa, You need to make a personal visit to K'Lee and educate that child on your real dad. I would take DVD's / CD's and spend "quality time" with that child!!!
7/13/2009 9:28:59 PM - 002055694880
I tried to explain that to her...however she is eight and 'knows everything' Lisa told her she was going to cd her up with Elvis and she said 'Oh No....Taylor Swift. So that is as far as that got.
7/13/2009 9:20:56 PM - 002067758981
That's is funny, I hope you corrected K'Lee, you know he is the king and Lisa's Dad..........LOL
7/13/2009 9:18:54 PM - 002055694880
Figured I better make it short. Anyway so Lisa could not believe it. She was in shock! She is piled in charts.....
7/13/2009 9:18:18 PM - 002055694880
Ok so No I have never been to any of those places.
I just got off the phone with Lisa. I had to call her and tell her what K'Lee said. K'Lee walks in the room and Elvis is on TV singing. She says,"Man! He SUCKS!" Well she continues to listen and goes well atleast that ones a little better!
7/13/2009 9:16:44 PM - 002055694880
You bumped me....AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH Had a long one to....gonna try again.
7/13/2009 9:16:15 PM - 002049843840
Yes, when she cleans off her desk, watch out!!!!!
7/13/2009 8:50:48 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, 35 days!!!
7/13/2009 8:31:00 PM - 002067758981
Does Jamie just shift piles of work from her desk to you two?
7/13/2009 8:30:13 PM - 002067758981
With surgery files? Is Kim up to that, don't do it!!!!
7/13/2009 8:28:28 PM - 002049843840
Hey don't volunteer me for anything!!!!!
7/13/2009 8:25:02 PM - 002071551455
Send me! I just got a pile dumped on my desk.
7/13/2009 8:19:34 PM - 002025703401
I would but my piles rival Lisa's. Should I sent Kim? :)
7/13/2009 8:15:58 PM - 002067758981
OMG!!! Someone help Lisa..................
7/13/2009 8:01:43 PM - 001024320926
I just sent out a SOS on Jean's site, I'm buried in work. I have soooo many charts on my desk I could get a lethal paper cut at any moment!! I worked in surgery this morning, tried to have a lunch, wrote in the journal and then my desk opened up and ate me!! Help, I'm begging.......make it stop!!
7/13/2009 7:03:11 PM - 002025703401
She posted in her journal at lunch time but has been very quiet this morning.
This is a scary thought, but maybe she is having to work today! Bummer..... :)
7/13/2009 6:59:47 PM - 002029331419
LOL!!!!
Anyone know what Lisa's up to today?
7/13/2009 6:54:41 PM - 002049843840
It would fall under the TMI catagory......
7/13/2009 6:45:55 PM - 002067758981
hehehehe
7/13/2009 6:45:33 PM - 002025703401
No comments from Mom or Kim.......
7/13/2009 6:45:00 PM - 002067758981
lol
7/13/2009 6:44:47 PM - 002067758981
Oh, pray tell us what you bought?
7/13/2009 6:39:53 PM - 002029331419
Fantastic!!
7/13/2009 6:10:58 PM - 002025703401
I ordered something last night....... I'm the queen of internet shopping!
7/13/2009 5:16:33 PM - 002029331419
Jamie...should you be online shopping for your new clothes for your trip...now that you've cleaned out your closet - that always calls for some more shopping! :0)
7/13/2009 4:45:18 PM - 002025703401
And she wonders why I'm not much of a meat eater these days.............. :O)
7/13/2009 4:41:57 PM - 002029331419
"Hey, Linda...What's for Supper?" he he!! :0)
It's never a mystery if the cook knows what she's cooking!!
7/13/2009 3:54:08 PM - 002067758981
Jamie Leigh, you never ate mystery meat in your life.........I always knew what it was......hehehe
7/13/2009 3:46:50 PM - 002025703401
Cry baby......................
7/13/2009 3:28:50 PM - 002029331419
post bumper..................
7/13/2009 3:27:19 PM - 002071551455
Put up 38 quarts of tomatoes this weekend. We put them up outside using two burners like you use for cooking crawfish. That way we didn't heat up the kitchen. It worked great and we finished up fast. Now I am ready to start checking out the weather in Washington DC so I will now what to pack.
7/13/2009 3:21:14 PM - 002025703401
Very very carefully........ :) :)
7/13/2009 3:18:14 PM - 002071551455
So how did you get the crab to hand you the lemon?
7/13/2009 2:03:50 PM - 000093706714
Prior to THE LEG, I got very ambitious and started cleaning closets I DUMPED mine and filled my room with give-aways. I really wanted to clear out more but worried that DH would have a fit if my closet was COMPLETELY empty! I have tons of 'corporate wear' and would love to have a wardrobe makeover. Anyone want to nominate me for the show.....'What Not To Wear?". hehehehehehee
7/13/2009 5:30:32 AM - 001023411097
Hello, from Barb in Livingston. We are getting back to normal here after vacation. I love coming by to see what you have added. I want to look around and head for bed. I think it is after 12 now. Barb
7/13/2009 3:22:28 AM - 002029331419
Jamie! Good for you that your doing the clothes cleaning process! And NO more Baseball T-shirts for you!! :0) Well, you said! You should be smiling from ear to ear...(or sweating up a storm) for being able to really say "GOOD BYE" to all of those clothes...and finding some that you can wear, that you didn't know you had!! Even Better !! Yiippee Good for you!!
7/13/2009 2:59:05 AM - 002025703401
Kay called earlier, she was at her new house working...... :)
She's gonna come over one night this week to pickup some of these clothes. I have some stuff she might want to wear on our trip.
I have trip clothes hanging in a section of my closet by themselves. :)
7/13/2009 2:56:13 AM - 002049843840
Sounds like you were busy today :) So when ya gonna start packing?
Did Kay find the video yet?
7/13/2009 2:53:03 AM - 002025703401
Still sorting out clothes. You know my closet is the size of a small bedroom and it was packed full of clothes. I emptied it (except for one rack that's going to have to wait) and made myself try on a lot of clothes. It was not fun putting on winter clothes.... Do not let me buy another baseball tshirt...... Now I have 2 huge piles, one for Kay and one for a garage sale or charity.
I found some dress clothes for work that actually fit that I didn't know were in there. I know, I have too many clothes and hate about 80% of them.......
The one rack I didn't get to has coats and dresses.
7/13/2009 2:46:11 AM - 002049843840
It was so good!!!
So whatca doin???
7/13/2009 2:42:22 AM - 002025703401
Got it! I forwarded it to Big Momma.... :)
7/13/2009 2:19:33 AM - 002049843840
Jamie I emailed you that recipe....
7/12/2009 9:45:44 PM - 002025703401
Another List:
1) Number 1 Rule - Never turn down FREE food, especially at your mother's or grandmother's. I have always lived by this rule and that is why I'm on a diet now...... :)
2) Jean, I would be mad if you did not have crab in San Fran! :) Did you know Kim doesn't like crab......
3) Did you know I hate to clean? You would think I'd pay someone to do it, but I also hate for other people to touch my stuff........ WIERDO......
4) Texas Ladies - We do not wear flowy skirts, but Mom (and Lisa?) carry BIG purses, and we do say Ya'll.....
5) I'm on a cherry break. When we went to Oregon, Mom and I discovered Rainer Cherries. Found some nice ones at Sam's. I've eaten a whole carton of them. YUMMY!!!
7/12/2009 9:36:00 PM - 002067758981
Used to be a joke in our family....I thought the kids loved rice krispy treats, come to find out they were MY fav....hehehe Sounds like ya'll had a good Sunday!!!
7/12/2009 9:25:38 PM - 002029331419
I finally got to see your Crab pictures....somethng was really whacky with Sfly last night! They are great!....Did I tell you we're going to have crab in San Francisco?.... :0)
7/12/2009 9:21:49 PM - 002029331419
Hey Professional List Maker! Happy Sunday afternoon!! Are you the hide out for big post bumpers?...LOL Lisa come a scooting over here pretty fast...and she hasn't been back! LOL
My daughters college roommate didn't know how to turn her vacuum on either...really!
I'm really looking forward to the TX invasion for the Fiesta! ... don't get huffy...that's a compliment! After all ....there were 3 buses and car loads of TX ladies at the conference here this weekend! They all had flowy skirts, big purses and said 'Ya All' a lot! That's ok, the speaker is also from Houston! LOL...
Linda, Hannah and her parents came for Sunday lunch when I told them I had a roast, taters and carrots coming out of the Crock Pot...but I made one of their favorites... peanut butter Rice Krispy Treats! Nothing fancy...but all I have are a few taters, gravy and 3 treats left over! Those kids can eat!! Everyone's talking about food so I thought I'd add some more! :0)
7/12/2009 8:30:17 PM - 002067758981
OK, Lisa what kind of cake are you making?....I did not make anything sweet this week-end! Jamie bought a coffee cake (said Dad needed it). Neighbor sent me half a cream cheese pound cake and a huge bowl of strawberry shortcake. But do not tell Jamie, she may quit cleaning!!!
I love Jamie's lists.....means Kay and I don't have to worry and besides if she forgets something, we just blame Jamie......hehehe
7/12/2009 8:20:10 PM - 002025703401
Someone has been around me too long or they are making fun of me...... :) I wonder which it would be..... Hummmm........
1, 2, 3, thinking about 4, 5, and spraying some waterproofing stuff on my shoes and jacket.
But I'm not doing 6 and gonna pay the price next week. Did I tell you that I will more than likely will make a roadtrip to Louisiana next week.
Still trying to find my vacuum cleaner. Can someone describe it for me???? :)
7/12/2009 7:54:48 PM - 002049843840
I feel so special, I made Jamie's List....woohoo....at least I wasn't #1.
So watcha doin' Jamie....
1) Cleaning house......she loves to do that LOL
2) Washing clothes......another fav
3) Cleaning out closet
4) Packing for Alaska......woohoo
5) I'll go ahead and put it on here myself......Kimberly!!
6) Working......hopefully not!!
Love ya Jamie......your my favorite boss!!!!
And your mom is sweet......some people just don't know how to behave themselves.....Jamie Leigh!
7/12/2009 7:25:29 PM - 002025703401
Another List:
1) Everyone can go see the tulips (and Cheri) if they want to..... (Even Lisa)
2) A crab surprise!!! :)
3) Cake??? Carrot, crab, or German chocolate?
4) Mom is sweet? Someone is sucking up..... Wait until she's mad at you (or is your nurse from hXll)....... love ya Momma! :)
5) Kimberly.......
6) Cheri - Please Send Money is Sugarland not Taylor Swift :)
7) Southern girls are not shy about eating is soooo true! And when we are eating one meal, we are talking about and planning the next......... And it is very rude to leave food on your plate (unless it's your third helping). :) Bread is for sopping the plate.....
7/12/2009 6:06:27 PM - 001024320926
Kim got on to you about making a list........hilarious! She knows you too well :) That's a plus for the rest of us.
7/12/2009 6:04:48 PM - 001024320926
I bumped Jean on her site so I ran to your site for shelter!!!
I have a crab surprise for you tomorrow. Jamie you don't think you're gonna go to see tulips and Cheri without me right??
I'm making a cake today to make Linda proud of me :) I talked to her on the phone and she sounds as sweet on the phone as she writes, so does Dixie? Dixie was louder though :)
7/12/2009 3:36:52 PM - 000093706714
Girls......if you are serious about the Tulip Festival next year, I will make sure my hiney is there with big hugs, smiles, giggles (possible enticement to get you into trouble) and camera! hehehehe
Jamie....if you are counting me as 3 (and I assure you that is very accurate), you should see what it is like feeding my 3 guys! I attribute my hearty appetite to the fact that I was raised Southern (AND in New Orleans where some of the best food of ALL TIME exists! Next to YOUR mom's, of course! I can 'smell' a good cook even over cyber space!!!!!) We southern girls are NOT shy about eating........and where I come from, leaving ANYTHING on your plate is rude! LOL We even serve bread with every meal to ensure you can 'lick' the dish!!!!!!
Boudin...............LOVE IT!
Taylor Swift is singing.....PLEASE SEND MONEY. Can I use this as my personal theme song???? OK, I am sooooooooo entertaining myself and laughing too hard. Gotta go hobble to potty and P!
Have a great day everyone!
7/12/2009 2:35:35 PM - 002025703401
Starla - For fireworks, check about halfway down the Beach Page. I have some really cool video from last year's fireworks pre-Ike, but the file is too large to post. I need to work on editing the videos.
We love smoked boudain. The grocery store at the beach pre-Ike had a deli that sold the best fried boudain balls. We would fight over who got to make the store run...... They have reopened the store but not the deli....... We are very sad..... ;(
And bakeries around here, sale boudain kolaches for breakfast. They remove the casing and put it inside a bread roll. YUM!
7/12/2009 2:22:07 PM - 002055694880
I sure am glad that there are older and wiser hicks out there to explain things to this young one. Now that I have a better idea of what that is.....was it good?
Love the new crab page. So fun and the video is hilarious! I saw that you posted fourth fireworks but I can't find them. I saw on site update. I need more coffee to keep looking.
7/12/2009 4:09:43 AM - 002049843840
Night, I'm sure I'll talk to you tomorrow.
7/12/2009 4:04:49 AM - 002025703401
Good Night!
7/12/2009 4:00:36 AM - 002049843840
That so true!!!
7/12/2009 3:59:51 AM - 002025703401
Don't mess with your elders......
7/12/2009 3:58:19 AM - 002049843840
Go to bed then....you need your beauty sleep...LOL
7/12/2009 3:57:30 AM - 002025703401
No, I'll have to go look.... But, maybe in the morning... I can barely keep my eyes open... :)
7/12/2009 3:56:03 AM - 002049843840
Did you see the new pictures I put on today?
7/12/2009 3:55:12 AM - 002025703401
Next year...... Remind me in March for her birthday or May for Mother's Day.
7/12/2009 3:54:14 AM - 002049843840
Oh.....I think you may have to get her some of these.....LOL
7/12/2009 3:53:24 AM - 002025703401
About a month ago.....
7/12/2009 3:51:18 AM - 002049843840
She called me to find out where we got them, and if they were mine.......I told her they are Debbie's, I don't do flowers........did you bring her one of those last week?
7/12/2009 3:49:30 AM - 002025703401
She told me about the pictures, but I didn't realize you talked.
7/12/2009 3:47:56 AM - 002025703401
Finished Toyota, waiting on Jay. We are going to meet Monday morning to finish. Still have a little more Ford to work on......
7/12/2009 3:45:04 AM - 002049843840
How did work go today? I talked to your mom, did she tell you?
7/12/2009 3:43:03 AM - 002025703401
Nothing else on, bored......
7/12/2009 3:42:04 AM - 002049843840
Had a internet issue.....locked me up
7/12/2009 3:36:00 AM - 002049843840
So you do like Kenny......ummmmmm
7/12/2009 3:35:28 AM - 002025703401
Shiftwork....
7/12/2009 3:34:49 AM - 002049843840
No watching the Rangers
7/12/2009 3:33:29 AM - 002025703401
Are you watching Kenny on GAC?
7/12/2009 3:31:43 AM - 002025703401
That's what I thought too. We will have to keep watch for a deal..... :)
7/12/2009 3:29:36 AM - 002049843840
Cheaper to fly to Chicago thru Southwest....
7/12/2009 3:27:54 AM - 002025703401
Been to that one and with Michigan, we would get to meet Cheri.
7/12/2009 3:27:11 AM - 002049843840
So your talking Michigan not Washington......
7/12/2009 3:20:55 AM - 002025703401
Maybe another extra day weekend trip....... :) Look for airfare deals to Chicago or Detroit.
Can everyone else see the pictures on the crab page?
Jean - We always laugh like that on our trips.... Why do you think we love to travel so much with each other.
7/12/2009 3:18:54 AM - 002049843840
See Jamie can't help herself, she has to make lists no matter what..LOL!
So now you wanna go to tulip fest next year....are we gonna be able to swing it with end on month.....that would be cool!!!!
Don't get my hopes up then snatch it away......
7/12/2009 2:59:13 AM - 002029331419
Jamie...so I could watch the video...and not see the pictures on your new Page!! Weird!!
The video was funny! I thought it was very brave of you to make your driver on a snowy road get to laughing so hard! yikes! LOL!
May....ooooo.....Note to self....Tulip-Mania!
So Lisa and Dixie had a bonding time over the phone! lol!
7/12/2009 2:48:37 AM - 002025703401
OK, let's see.....
1) Kay has not called, so I'm not in trouble yet.....
2) Cheri - 2010 Tulip Festival is May 1 -10, everyone keep that in mind......
3) If you eat seafood with Cheri count her as 3 people..... :)
4) Dixie really wanted to talk to Lisa...... I have a lot more crab stuff at the beach house, next trip........
5) Barb's pages are great and can't wait until she adds more!
7/12/2009 12:09:25 AM - 001024320926
You have to go to Barb's and look at her Vancouver and Alaska pictures!!
7/11/2009 11:45:50 PM - 001024320926
Just looked at the crab page and loved it!! I laughed out loud over the video and tell Kay she sounds great on her video feature :) Loved it!! I love the label pins, I'm gonna have to keep my eyes open for crab stuff for ya :)
It was good talking to you and getting to talk with Linda was a treat!! I even felt like I talked with Dixie :) :) She sounds healthy :)

Just visited the Crabby page.........I gotta tell you; if you and me were to hang together, I would give you a real run for your money eating crabs! As a New Orleans bred southern girl, I learned how to pick them fast and it is NOTHING for me to eat a dozen or more - alone! When I go back home, my family knows that I will ONLY eat seafood. It is a little difficult for me to decide between crabs, shrimp and crawfish. mmmmmm.......I'll just take them all - and PLENTY, PLENTY PLENTY please!!!!!!!
7/11/2009 11:14:10 PM - 000093706714
Thank you for this.........
Remember, it's not how far you go, but who you spend quality time with making wonderful memories. :)
And no.......I haven't been to the Tulip Festival. Wanna go with me?
7/11/2009 10:45:45 PM - 002049843840
Jamie does Kay know you put that video of her on the crabby page......shame on ya!!!
7/11/2009 5:12:42 PM - 002025703401
What did I do?????? {snicker}
And that was your voice from the backseat Big Momma!
7/11/2009 4:25:00 PM - 001024320926
Glad to hear Dixie is feeling better or at least up to figuring out how to parlay this injury into new demands :) She's a smarty :)
I'm headed out the door to explore, wish me luck. Starla you wanna come :)
7/11/2009 3:47:06 PM - 002067758981
Missy, Kay is going to hurt you bad.........so funny.
7/11/2009 1:48:08 PM - 002055694880
NO complaining ..... Just dreaming. We take the kids on lots of adventures. Some may just be the short trip to town or down the county road in the Rhino or we load up and take a road trip. The kids have been alot of places as young as they are. K'Lee did a ton of traveling with the competition cheer. We went alot of places. So until then I'll be here dreaming........Or waiting for Jason to say LOAD UP!
7/11/2009 12:38:33 PM - 002025703401
That's our bad girl..... She is going to be sooooo rotten after this!
7/11/2009 12:37:17 PM - 002067758981
Dad's on his way to beach house already. Glad I'm not there to watch. He would make me very nervous watching.
7/11/2009 12:32:26 PM - 002067758981
Hey, sounded great to me!!! We do have good memories, don't we?
Dixie report: Doing even better this morning......walked half-way between house and Dad's shop, did her jobs and looked at me as if to say 'well, I'm done, what are you waiting for?, pick me up'.
7/11/2009 3:46:08 AM - 002025703401
Starla, As much as I hate to admit it, Lisa is right. We are old and either our kids are grown or have no kids, so see what you have to look forward to.....
When I was growing up, we went to the lake or beach on vacation and made lots of wonderful memories.
Only later, when I was in college, did we start to travel. By then, my parents were making more money and I started paying my own way too. That's the best examples any parent can set for their children. Family togetherness, work hard, study hard, and you can succeed in life and travel to see our great country.
OK, good grief, I'll get off my soap box now.... :)
7/11/2009 3:31:20 AM - 001024320926
Starla I am old enough to be your mother, so let me say this..... Girl you have only just begun!! You will do lots in time, right now you are being a mother and they need you, absolutely nothing wrong with that. Don't forget we went to Galveston and you have the lake adventures too. Plus you know I'm going to drag you places as well!!!! We still need to do some exploring and I'm prefectly fine with the girls so bring it!!
Jamie I am excited too, way excited!! I may need the Vacation Nazi for San Fran but you need to concentrate on your clothes and Alaska right now ;)
7/11/2009 2:35:15 AM - 002055694880
Alaska, Portland, San Francisco, New Mexico......oh yeah....well guess where I am going...huh? you wanna know......No where I was just kidding. You are some lucky ladies. Maybe when my kids get a bit older more traveling to come.
7/11/2009 1:01:28 AM - 002025703401
And I gotta go back in tomorrow. Remember, we have to work to play..... :)
San Francisco will be cool! I have a San Francisco book, do I need to make you a list??? That's why they call me - "The Vacation Nazi"..... LOL! :)
We may still go with Kay to Portland at the end of October. She is still waiting to see if the University is going to send them to the conference.
I really am excited about our trip to New Mexico and I've gotta start getting the Alaska stuff together. I not even sure if my "winter" clothes fit!!! I've got to try on those clothes this weekend.
7/11/2009 12:54:05 AM - 001024320926
Work was a you know what today.............
Found out today that I'm going to San Francisco the end of October for a meeting. Never been so I'm hoping it'll be a good trip :)
7/11/2009 12:44:43 AM - 002025703401
Someone is working my hours......
7/11/2009 12:42:41 AM - 001024320926
I'm stopping right quick before I go home, still at work and I am beat!!! I'm hoping to have the internet by the time I get home but who knows, it might in another hour call to HughesNet. They suck by the way, in case any one wants to know. They, however, are the ONLY service available where I live, which is apparently just south of the moon. I need to write a journal entry just about the internet, fill every body in.
I will text you if I find that I am on an island again.
Linda thanks for stopping by today and I'm happy you liked the Vancouver pictures :) It was a great place to visit. I hope ya'll have a great time there!!!
7/10/2009 9:26:02 PM - 000093706714
Linda.......really glad to hear the news on Dixie!
Tick tock........another day CLOSER TO ALASKA! Very exciting............
Mmmmmm...........I am going to the ZOO with my dh sometime during the next 2 weeks. Despite how much I LOVE THAT GUY, somehow, it does NOT sound nearly as exciting as your plans! Ssshhhh..........I don't wanna hurt his feelings!
Other Big News: Ordered a sealed cast protector that will enable me to go swimming. DH kept putting me off and so I called in backup girlfriends to get the measurements and place the order! Swimming next week.......................
7/10/2009 6:50:57 PM - 002055694880
I emailed Jamie about the photo and told her not to laugh at me too hard....I had no idea what it was on my cell phone. I must have looked at it about ten times. I was too embarrassed to ask .... feeling kinda blonde.....I guess I should have known.....but I didn't.
Glad to hear that Dixie is doing better. The boys are gone.....WOO HOO! Love em but had enough! Regan is down for a nap! ALRIGHT! And K'Lee is just chillin watching tv. Man what a day! So where is everyone at today?
7/10/2009 6:32:36 PM - 002025703401
Thought I would take a moment from my busy "cranky" day to give you guys an update. I booked 2 new rooms at another hotel out of the construction. Jean, if I need to change just let me know. Not a problem. Ask Mom, I changed our plans in Oregon 5 times before I was happy :)
Going to Mom's for dinner tonight to check on the "baby". Have to work tomorrow, trying to finish up June books (they ain't pretty). On Sunday, I've got to stay home and clean my house. I may even try to figure out how to operate my vacuum..... I HATE to clean house! Also, gonna reorganize my closet and pull out all the clothes that don't fit any more and figure out which ones I'm taking to ALASKA! Did you know we are going to ALASKA in August? LOL
7/10/2009 4:32:53 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Greeting from the southern girl, that's southern Italy, Hope all is well. Just want to wish you a great weekend? Are you going fishing? I'm off to the zoo with my girls.
Be well and enjoy your weekend.
7/10/2009 4:29:18 PM - 002029331419
Linda...I know how much you love your girls...I have Sadie and oh my gosh she is a bunch to love...and one of the few around me that don't care if I have my camera out! LOL But Dixie did her business by herself this morning...that's good!!!
Believe me...changing is hotels is a hassel...But to be in Construction with big ol Truckers on both sides of you....it's Worse!! Really!! I sure hope you can get on Jefferson...since it's a quick trip - trave time will be MUCH less! I40 has been under construction since we moved here 23 years ago!
7/10/2009 4:17:23 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, we are getting more excited and looking forward to both trips!!! If puppy gets on her feet before I have to leave her, I'll be a happy ole woman. Husband has been good with her but she's a Momma girl.
7/10/2009 3:54:39 PM - 001024320926
Taking a quick second to chime in before I have to drive to the other side of Dallas for surgery and then back. Geez work is starting to consume my pleasure time :)
Can't wait for NM now. But Jamie and Linda ya'll have got to be excited that trip to Alaska is fast approaching!! You're in the 30's now. Can't wait to hear the stories and see the pictures!!
Linda I told Starla to get with you on the cell picture and what it was, :) Oh and the Canada pictures are on the Travel Clicks page. Hope you like them :) Glad to hear Dixie is feeling a little perky and walking just a tic. Won't be long til she's up to her old tricks :)
Better run, more later.............
7/10/2009 3:48:51 PM - 002049843840
She's a little cranky today.......I'm kinda avoiding her.......LOL!!
7/10/2009 3:43:47 PM - 002067758981
Jamie told me that she is changing hotels.........Don't have to chase Dixie yet, she just turns her head from me and pouts, she's not up to walking around yet. But she did walk about 10 steps outside a few minutes ago and took care of business. Joe and I both were watching her and quietly jumping up and down. First steps she's taken by herself!!! Crazy to be so attached to that little mess. lol
7/10/2009 3:32:25 PM - 002029331419
I was thinking the same thing!!!
Jamie?..............................................
It's good!
7/10/2009 3:03:45 PM - 002049843840
That's ok......we thought we had offended you or something......but all is good now huh???
So what's the latest on the hotel front Jamie????
7/10/2009 2:58:46 PM - 002029331419
LOL...nah! Steve's battery on his laptop died and it was the kick I needed to go to bed! :0)
7/10/2009 2:14:41 PM - 002049843840
So Jean what happened last night, did Jamie being a Cubs fan just make you sick and you had to excuse yourself........
7/10/2009 2:09:35 PM - 002029331419
How exciting...getting ready for a Cruise to Alaska!!
Linda..so glad Dixie is feeling a little better...takes time for those little ones to heal from such an ordeal!! So catch Dixie and then bring out the dropper...LOL!! I bet it tastes YUCKKKY!!
7/10/2009 12:45:34 PM - 002067758981
OMG!!!! When are we going to check our stuff to see if we have everything we need? Dixie feeling a little better this morning, at least til I gave her the meds....she sees that dropper and starts trying to get away. Is that part of scare tactic from nurse from h..l?
7/10/2009 3:16:50 AM - 002029331419
Your in the 3's now!....It's going to be fantastic!
7/10/2009 3:10:48 AM - 002029331419
Did you get your emails about the road construction right by your hotel?
7/10/2009 3:07:50 AM - 002049843840
Hey if you worked to hard it's your own fault.....
still watching the game here....
7/10/2009 3:02:32 AM - 002025703401
Hey! 39 days til Alaska!!!! You guys made me miss that too...
7/10/2009 3:01:23 AM - 002025703401

7/10/2009 2:49:13 AM - 002029331419

7/10/2009 2:12:13 AM - 002049843840

New Mexico in October??????? mmmmmmmmm.........my cast should be off and I could be walking again! Oh my! Sounds fun!
7/9/2009 9:40:03 PM - 002029331419
Makes me think of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"...her dad put Windex on everything!!
7/9/2009 8:58:15 PM - 002025703401
It's GOOD stuff! Bug bites, zits, you name it....
7/9/2009 8:46:41 PM - 002067758981
No kidding, this she buys by case!!!!
7/9/2009 8:45:35 PM - 002025703401
My drug of choice is Campho-Phenique. It will cure a lot of wounds..... :)
7/9/2009 8:43:19 PM - 002025703401
Monkeys blood burns like heck..... And then your mother would blow more germs on it.....
7/9/2009 8:42:27 PM - 002025703401
My Dad says if he had bought stock in bandaids he'd be rich.....
7/9/2009 8:41:01 PM - 001024320926
Do you remember 'monkeys blood'??
7/9/2009 8:06:31 PM - 002029331419
Bandaids by the Case? :0)
7/9/2009 7:51:18 PM - 002025703401
Trust me on this.... I have always been accident prone and Mom has always been a clean freek.... SCARY! She cleans a wound like she cleans the floor... scrub... scrub.... scrub.... :)
7/9/2009 7:46:34 PM - 001024320926
If she wants to 'clean your wound'............................Jamie you are killing me!! LOL!!!!!
Jean! Don't upset Linda!! (BTW that was funny :)
7/9/2009 7:15:19 PM - 002029331419
Noooooo (JKing = Just kidding) .....That one will be easy on and off the Hwy...and about 1/2 between Airport and Fiesta - it's a good spot!
7/9/2009 7:01:20 PM - 002025703401
And my Mother is the "NURSE from HXLL". If she wants to clean your wound, run.... run very fast.....
7/9/2009 6:58:23 PM - 002025703401
Really????
Jean is soooo funny....... You are going to upset my Mom!
7/9/2009 6:42:23 PM - 002029331419
Oh Jamie....Not that one!! The other Hotel....This puts you where all of the drug dealers and murder's are!! .... oh... Jaaaaammmmie.....
JKing..he he
7/9/2009 5:30:36 PM - 002055694880
LOL!! That's funny. I think I would rather have that kind of nurse. I know I would get better...maybe a little toooo better!!
Well I am sorry that happened to her...I am glad that she is doing better tho. Wonder how come the first vet did not find the breaks. Never mind I probably know what you are going to say to that!
I am glad to be back. The kids were at the table a minute ago eating lunch and Jacob (3) and Regan (2) were talking to each other and didn't think anyone was listening and boy they learn quick these days. Mom and Dad no longer have to explain things to them. Boys and Girls explain it to each other.
Oh I took pictures of our pumpkins in the garden, they are huge. Will have to upload. Will let you know when I do.
7/9/2009 5:02:11 PM - 002067758981
Wondered where you were, Starla. Whoooee, I thought I had my hands full with Dixie, but you beat me!!!
Dixie fell off the stairway at the beach house Saturday morning, rushed her to ER Vet in Beaumont, they thought no bones broken, Monday, we took her to our regular vet. Pelvis had three breaks. Had surgery Monday afternoon, picked her up and brought her home Tuesday afternoon. She's doing ok. Eating and drinking water but still can not stand alone. She was a MOMMA baby before, believe me she'll be worst after this. Hope things will be better for you and us soon.
Have to be a doggy nurse here, my kids used to call me the nurse from h..l when they were growing up. Just ask Missy!!! lol
7/9/2009 4:42:13 PM - 002055694880
What happened to Dixie. I miss a bunch when there is stuff going on. I will never understand why people can't figure out their own problems and have to get me involved....don't they know I have to be on Shutterfly 24/7!!! MAN!! LOL! How is everyone. I am off but babysitting. Not sure how I feel about it. There is four of them...my two girls and two boys.. ages....2,3,6,8. And it's raining!! So they are in the house all day. Got the big kids playing the Wii and fixing to lay the little ones down....Woo Hoo!
7/9/2009 4:08:15 PM - 002067758981
Kay, call me when you get a chance.
7/9/2009 4:06:38 PM - 002067758981
Kay, Dixie is doing ok. Ran to Jordan's Vet Clinic this AM for them to check her before week-end. They think she's doing good. She's eating and drinking water. She still is not able to stand up by herself, but she's trying. That's a good sign. She will be MORE spoiled by the time this is over. (If that's possible)
7/9/2009 4:02:29 PM - 002067758981
WooHoo here too, excited about it, always wanted to see the balloons and NM!!!! How about it, Kimberly? Talked Peggy into it yet?
7/9/2009 3:49:03 PM - 001024320926
WooHoo going to NM :)
7/9/2009 3:07:59 PM - 002029331419
Jamie...anything along I-25 will be pretty much easy on and off...Fiesta destination is off of Alameda. ABQ isn't all that big..Airport is south...Fiesta is North. Airport is also small and easy to work around!
Let me know if you need any help!
7/9/2009 2:49:26 PM - 002071401838
Hey, Linda. How is Dixie doing today?
7/9/2009 2:47:48 PM - 002067758981
You are a busy Missy, aren't you?
7/9/2009 2:37:43 PM - 002025703401
Working on Kim.....and sent Lisa an email too! :)
Been on the phone with the boss.... He just laughed when I told him about taking off on a Monday at the first of the month..... He says my bad doesn't even register on a scale, so I have the boss's approval (after I had already booked). :)
Have a rental car and working on hotel now..... and working. ;)
7/9/2009 2:21:59 PM - 002029331419
This is fantastic! I don't know if you watch your email...or your site...but I sent you an email...
Kim are you coming????
7/9/2009 1:48:25 PM - 001024320926
I'm going!!! I will be purchasing my ticket on the 17th. So now what do I gotta do?
7/9/2009 3:01:04 AM - 002049843840
How's hotel hunting going?
What did Jean say about the walking?
7/9/2009 2:58:53 AM - 002049843840
Hey your the travel nazi..... I figured you would have thought of that.
7/9/2009 2:58:10 AM - 002025703401
Now you tell me..... too late! I need to get home and back to work anyway....
7/9/2009 2:54:00 AM - 002049843840

You check it, I'm looking at hotels. :)
7/9/2009 2:48:45 AM - 002049843840
Well.......
7/9/2009 2:48:10 AM - 002025703401
You are nothing but trouble....
7/9/2009 2:45:49 AM - 002049843840
Sent you an email........no response yet......waiting!!!!
7/9/2009 2:18:57 AM - 002025703401

7/9/2009 2:06:36 AM - 002025703401
Kim, Check your personal email.... :)
7/9/2009 1:58:04 AM - 002025703401
Kay is passing.....
7/9/2009 1:54:49 AM - 002049843840
What about Kay?
7/9/2009 1:50:16 AM - 002025703401
Kim, We are going..... See if Peggy wants to go!
7/9/2009 1:49:24 AM - 002025703401
Someone just got home from work.....
7/9/2009 1:46:57 AM - 002049843840
Where is Jamie is she ignoring us tonight?????
7/9/2009 1:44:50 AM - 002049843840
I was just over there and I was allowed to get on, so I removed my comment. Disregard the email also, Jean!!
7/9/2009 1:44:16 AM - 002029331419
sorry...sorrry....it was me...I was playing around...it's ok now! :0)
7/9/2009 1:24:27 AM - 002049843840
So have you booked the tickets yet??????
You know if all of you people end up going, I'm going to have to go too!!!!!
7/9/2009 1:19:31 AM - 002067758981
I love that's she's a vacation nazi too. I do not have to worry about anything other than her telling how much its going to cost.......lol
7/9/2009 12:54:36 AM - 001024320926
I did not start that Jamie!! Can I help it if your family and co-workers agree?? Besides I love that you're vacation Nazi :) I have only stalked the one time :)
7/9/2009 12:41:28 AM - 002029331419
Jamie...I replied to your email...I hope it helps! It is so beautiful in the fall here! High's would be in the 70's...10% humidity - Low's 40-50's...Ya gotta bring a coat! But once the sun is up...everyone who was very smart and informed that wore layers - well jackets are coming off!
Kim....This is an early event! Your there BEFORE the sun comes up! - People get a nap in the afternoon...because they go back for the night events..the Balloon Glow! Yup...you bring a jacket because - when the sun goes down..it cools off again!
7/8/2009 11:26:39 PM - 002025703401
I think Lisa started it.....
7/8/2009 11:22:32 PM - 002067758981
Vacation nazi? Who told them, Jamie?
7/8/2009 11:15:59 PM - 002025703401
Once a stalker......
7/8/2009 11:12:14 PM - 001024320926
Just let me know chickie.
Cheri, Jamie assigned herself that name!! She was called, with the utmost respect, the commander but she changed it to the Vacation Nazi all by herself :) :) I believe the evidence is on Jeans anniversary trip page :)
Now just because she threw it out there and we have gone insane with it......I mean that's ok right? Jamie called me a 'stalker'!! and all I did was sneak into a hospital to meet Charlie Waters (Dallas Cowboy) back in like 1978 or 1979 :) :)
7/8/2009 10:57:29 PM - 002025703401
Cheri - Save it, I can handle these goobers I work with...... :) You need to meet us too!
Lisa - I'm flexiable....:) Mom is worried about the heat and how far she may have to walk... Waiting on Jean.....
7/8/2009 10:51:59 PM - 001024320926
Jean I'm going too, but I can't get my plane ticket til the 17th because I wiped out my funds going Vancouver. I have this account that I call the 'no one knows about this account' where I keep all my savings for things like this. I'm very excited. I think I put a chink in Jamie's plans because I have to wait to buy the ticket but I definitely plan on going!!
7/8/2009 10:46:36 PM - 000093706714
Jamie....I am so sorry that my nazi reference has now been adopted and shamefully passed on to you. Want me to 'get em'?????
7/8/2009 10:32:52 PM - 002071551455
Not a chance, you know she will hand you a list and you better pay attention
7/8/2009 10:32:18 PM - 002049843840
At least this time I won't have to worry about making plans, I could just show up with my suitcase.....
7/8/2009 10:31:13 PM - 002071551455
Knowing how you love to make lists I am sure I am at the top of your list tonight. But given the fact that I can't go with you, I have time to work myself out of this one.
7/8/2009 10:28:29 PM - 002025703401
I am deeply offended.......
7/8/2009 10:26:01 PM - 002071551455
Jamie will probably play revalry at 5:00 AM to wake you up
Heil Jamie!
7/8/2009 10:25:09 PM - 002049843840
I've never been anywhere with the vacation nazi......I'm a liitle scared to commit......what do ya think Jean?????
7/8/2009 10:20:40 PM - 002071551455
Kimberly is young she should go, she will be sorry when the pictures come back and she missed it. The only problem is that Kim doesn't wake up until 10:00 so I hope they don't fly baloons until late.
7/8/2009 10:19:26 PM - 002071551455
I suggest we close down the whole office so we all can go.
7/8/2009 10:17:26 PM - 002025703401
Jean, Mom has two questions.... 1) How hot will it be? and 2) How far does she have to walk?
7/8/2009 10:11:39 PM - 002029331419
OH Shoot....sorry Jamie for spilling the beans...I'm sure it was going to be a surprise! I'm soo sorry!! Oh Kim...Your Young Girl...Come too! 2 weekends in a row traveling....will just keep ya busy when things start to slow down for winter!
Lisa.....
7/8/2009 9:57:46 PM - 002025703401
Someone is telling a story..... I asked her but she is going to Philly the weekend before.....
Kimberly.....
7/8/2009 9:44:48 PM - 002049843840
Jamie told me I couldn't go because it will be end of the month and only one person can be gone at that time (pouting).......I have to stay here and help Darla and Marcia (more pouting).....she..is..so..mean..sometimes!!!!!! LOL!!!!
A Sfly pals meeting and I'm banned, no fair!!
7/8/2009 9:22:11 PM - 002067758981
Jean, she did not tell me until her lunch time.........I was waiting. I picked up on the earlier hint that you dropped about Southwest.....Wondered how long it would take her to tell me about it...lol
7/8/2009 9:14:44 PM - 002025703401
Actually.... I'm working on the Southwest tickets then I'll get your help. :)
I really am working and trying to talk Lisa into coming! :)
7/8/2009 9:04:36 PM - 002029331419
And...I suppose your not one to ask for some help from someone that just might be a BIG help for the Festival? hummm???
7/8/2009 8:59:05 PM - 002025703401
Hey, I'm busy working and trying to plan a trip to see a Balloon Festival near someone we know..... Trying to talk Lisa into coming....
I can only do so many things at one time!
7/8/2009 8:48:01 PM - 002049843840
Jamie is in a grumpy mood today.......
7/8/2009 8:46:44 PM - 002029331419
Jamie...your sure quiet today...does Kim have you working on a project? :0)
7/8/2009 5:18:41 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, How are you doing today? Glad that Dixie is doing better. :-) 41 days and counting. Have you made all the lists. What to pack? To Do List before you leave. I have tons of lists. I love all the new additions to your site. This is my mini getaway when I explore your site.
Have a great day...catch you later.
7/8/2009 5:03:06 PM - 001024320926
Been in the Gallery this morning looking at books. Thought I'd better do some site hopping. Sounds like Dixie is doing a little better. Heck just slap a pamper on her :) She'll be running around before ya know it, poor little thing.
Think I'm going to do some Texas Exploring this weekend and maybe make that Paula Deen cake I've been talking about forever. I have craving for carrot cake too, thanks Linda :) Plus I have some stuff to put in the mail. Keep myself busy :)
7/8/2009 4:02:17 PM - 002029331419
But it's for Sept - Nov .... You'll be back by then - and you'll need something to keep your travel fever down - at 60.00...that's good enough for a quick weekend somewhere...I'm going to try and talk Steve into going and helping Calif in their financial crisis in Sept...and throw in a couple of Dodger games too!! Gooo Blue!!!
7/8/2009 3:58:23 PM - 002025703401
Nothing..... My travel companions will only let me work on our Alaska trip.....
7/8/2009 3:46:14 PM - 002029331419
Hey!! No need to get so excited!! I'm sure you had volunteered already...but I'm looking out for Dixie and her needs at this recovery time!
So what did you book with Southwest?
7/8/2009 3:12:12 PM - 002025703401
Hey! For you information I've already volunteered to baby sit if Mom and Dad need a break.... I'm the "good" child! :)
7/8/2009 3:06:50 PM - 002029331419
Mummmm are flowers....no need to mummm - mummmming doesn't help....
7/8/2009 3:05:49 PM - 002029331419
Linda aka Florence Nightengale of puppies that have major owiees....she is in such good hands with you taking care of her! I'm glad she is home with you! Jamie may need to come and give you a break...don't you think? I mean after all those puppies are like her step-sisters..sort of and you could use a break if she'd come and give her Momma that does so much for her and hand...right?
7/8/2009 2:01:44 PM - 002071551455
My heart goes out to Dixie, hope she is doing better this morning.
7/8/2009 12:19:42 PM - 002067758981
Dixie drinking water and eating turkey lunch meat by hand.................going to be more rotten, is that possible, Missy? Taking her meds good, but still not able to stand when we carry her outside........next few days are going to be fun! I have another word for it....h..l.
But its for my Dixie, so we'll handle it. Jamie, is there such thing as doggy diapers? lol
7/8/2009 3:11:15 AM - 001024320926
That they do. Hey Jamie remember all the stuff we talked about concerning Jean?? Well I think she knows somethings up so mummmmms the word :)
Hope Dixie is doing well, your Mom too :)
7/8/2009 3:06:40 AM - 002029331419
You just weren't in the right asile....Wal-Mart carries EVERYTHING!! ;0)
7/8/2009 12:58:37 AM - 002025703401
I thought I'd seen some at Walmart but could not find them at the one in Beaumont. Will check some of the others........
7/7/2009 11:24:55 PM - 001024320926
I do know how hard it is Jamie!! I have looked for everyone too, I bought Texas postcards at Walmart. There's a gift show in the Westend, may have to go there. I love my magnet, love it. I'll take a picture of it on the fridge and add it to my album on the Elle's Diner page :)
Hope Dixie and the world as ya'll knew it comes together soon :)
7/7/2009 9:49:29 PM - 002025703401
Mother told me earlier that Maddie (the other dog) is a nervous wreck.... Dixie is now home but drugged up. We may need a happy pill for Mom and Maddie. :o) Hopefully, tomorrow will be a better day......
Do you guys know how hard it is to find postcards or magnets around here? I finally found the magnets at Hobby Lobby of all places....
7/7/2009 6:47:14 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, So glad to read that Dixie is doing much better and that your Mom will be picking her up later today. That is Good News!!! I also want to send out a Big Thank You for the Texas magnet. I love it and my girls too. A million thanks.
7/7/2009 5:30:14 PM - 001024320926
Came by to check on Dixie :) and loks like she's doing well, she'll be happy to be home :) Then both Linda and Dixie's nerves can settle down.
I wasn't having a good night last night then I checked the mail...............woohoo mail from Jamie :) Love it!! Didn't even have to open it. Here's the weird thing I bought a bunch while I was in Galveston and I was planning on sending to all the refridgerator postings. I like the one you sent better!! Nothing better than an armodilla (sp?) all these years and it just occurrs to me that I have no idea how to spell that!! Thanks a million, jillion for the magnet!!
7/7/2009 5:04:15 PM - 002029331419
That's GREAT!! She'll just feel better by being in her own bed with Linda to fuss over her!
7/7/2009 3:22:05 PM - 002025703401
Dixie Update: Dixie is doing well and Mom is picking her up at 2 this afternoon.
7/7/2009 2:40:00 PM - 002029331419
Hey Linda and Jamie! I'm soo glad Dixie is going to be ok! Wow...you must have a great Vet that is going to make her all back to new...in time! :0) I have to take Sadie to the Vet this month for her shots...gosh she hates that ...but oh well... Her Vet sits on the floor with her and gives her treats before he does anything, knowing that Sadie is pretty shy around him. Well, Miss Dixie is in good hands and has a Momma to comfort and take care of her now!
Jamie...Your timing was perfect...and yesterday I needed a good reason to smile and it came in the shape of Texas!! :0) Thanks Girl! It's holding up my certificate on my fridge! I really like your new Beach pictures! It's like everyone had their own chair/bench to just sit back and chill out on! That's why your down there!
Linda.. the CPP was great! I have a picture of it on my Guest Page!
My laptop is back to normal...I think...but it's not leaving my house again! No more camping for it!
I'll see ya's around!!
7/7/2009 1:17:57 PM - 000093706714
So weird.....my entire message did not post. ????? Sending my thanks (again) for your thoughtful gift. Thanks for thinking of me!
7/7/2009 1:16:37 PM - 000093706714
So glad to hear Dixie did well in the surgery! Hopefully she will be bopping around annoying your mom soon!
7/7/2009 2:31:40 AM - 002049843840
Glad to hear that Dixie did well during surgery......Hopefully she will get to come home tomorrow.
7/7/2009 1:47:51 AM - 002025703401
I'll give you a wakeup call in the morning.... ;)
7/7/2009 1:43:17 AM - 002067758981
Going to bed , its been long day....up at 4 AM with the baby. Tomorrow is going to be better day.
7/7/2009 1:41:07 AM - 002067758981
OH YES!!!!! Anytime over choc. for me.
7/7/2009 1:28:14 AM - 002025703401
Choc solves my problems, but you guys want carrot cake?
7/7/2009 1:27:39 AM - 001024320926
Very happy to hear that Dixie did well in surgery. Poor little thing!!
7/7/2009 1:27:06 AM - 001024320926
Carrot cake please.............................ahummmm NOW!!
7/7/2009 1:17:35 AM - 002067758981
My nerves need a carrot cake, Jamie!!
7/7/2009 1:15:33 AM - 002067758981
Thanks Lisa, I'll be better when Dixie is better, she's such a little live wire. Hope and pray she's able to do it again. Missy, remind me of this when she's driving me nuts by putting her ball under something I can't get to.
7/7/2009 1:13:15 AM - 002025703401
Lisa the choc chip pound cake would help drown your sorrows...... Do I need to mail you one? :)
7/7/2009 1:11:56 AM - 002025703401
Dixie is doing well after her surgery and may get to come home tomorrow.
7/6/2009 11:42:25 PM - 001024320926
Beautiful new pictures Jamie :)
7/6/2009 11:40:26 PM - 001024320926
Wow! I have a small meltdown over Kyleigh and the internet to come back and find out that poor Dixie wasn't ok at all!! Hope she's ok.
No fireworks here in my area, bummer, I didn't take but maybe two pictures, double bummer!!
Linda I'm sorry about your nerves, I can understand believe me. I'm not having a great day, I'm an emotional basket case :( Better tomorrow right?!!
I'll check back later, if the net is still working............
7/6/2009 6:42:58 PM - 002025703401
Dixie Update: She is having surgery on her pelvis this afternoon....
7/6/2009 4:31:37 PM - 002025703401
Saw on TV that New York had a mile long stretch of fireworks barges on the Hudson River. I bet it was awesome!
7/6/2009 4:03:35 PM - 002067758981
Joanne, that must be wonderful to be able to see the fireworks live!! Hope to see pictures soon!!!
7/6/2009 3:34:12 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, I'm sorry to read about Dixie:-( I'll say a dogie prayer for a speedy recovery. It is sad to see a family member hurt or ill. Hope all will be well very soon.
I hope you had a fabulous weekend. I went to the Macy's fireworks over on the Hudson River. so many people but it was fun seeing it live. Maybe tomorrow I'll have some pics posted on my gallery site.
Take care and all the best to you, your family & Dixie too.
7/6/2009 3:28:38 PM - 002025703401
Dixie Update: She has several fractures in her pelvis, but all the bones are in line. Mom is picking her up at 12:30 and taking her to see a doggy specialist. Our vet thinks it will heal on its own because she is so young. We will see what the specialist says.....
7/6/2009 2:24:20 PM - 002067758981
Quick update on my baby, Dixie....Vet sedating to take x-rays. May be going to different doctor if its more than bruising in back. Everyone say a doggy prayer for her, please.
7/6/2009 12:25:39 PM - 000093706714
p.s. I checked out the Fun at the Beach page! You have TONS of really, really great shots! (And no, I am not just talking about all the good looking food shots! hehehehe) Seriously Jamie........that is a GREAT page!
7/6/2009 12:21:25 PM - 000093706714
I will save the joshing for now...............sending good wishes to little Dixie to feel better. Sorry to hear the news. Soft hugs and light petting via cyberspace!!!!!!!
7/6/2009 11:18:30 AM - 002025703401
Thanks! Got a few more pictures to upload still.... Apologies to Jared, Kathy, and John! With all the Dixie problems on Saturday, I didn't get the camera out until fireworks time and after they left.
Got a couple new blackmail photos..... Will post those soon.... :)
7/6/2009 10:58:27 AM - 002067758981
I like your new additions to fun at the beach page!!!
7/6/2009 3:00:11 AM - 002025703401
Sorry Jean, Lisa and Kim know from cell phone talk.....
On Saturday morning, Dixie fell off the staircase at the beach house about 7 feet. My brother, Kay, and I rushed her to the emergency vet in Beaumont. Her back is badly bruised. All this before 10am on Sunday morning.... Dixie is still in a lot of pain but will drink a little water and eats a few bites. Vet gave 3 pills and wants little movement for 2 weeks. Mom & Dad are taking her to the regular vet tomorrow.
7/6/2009 2:47:41 AM - 002029331419
Hi Girls!!
What happend to Dixie? awww...so sorry Linda!!
I made the CPP...it was fantastic...and I have pictures to prove it...but my lap top crashed again! But I had everything backed up last Wed!! Rob is working on getting it back up and running. Ok...I"m exhausted...going to bed! Jamie I agree...I'm going to work to rest up! :0)
See ya's tomorrow!! .... and I missed everyone too....
7/6/2009 2:15:57 AM - 002025703401
I came in from outside to see what was going on, too many flashes to the north for fireworks.... :) Looks like the weather is north of you Kim! Let it rain....... I'm watering my roses.....
7/6/2009 2:10:47 AM - 002049843840
It's thundering and lighting here!
7/6/2009 1:27:13 AM - 002067758981
Dixie is in a great deal of pain......just gave her meds to her and she drank a little water.....that is a good sign. She still will not or can not stand.... And Lisa, no my nerves are shot. Jamie and Joseph helped a lot this week-end. My man had tears in his eyes.......and wanted to hold her in her bed that we made.
7/6/2009 12:21:16 AM - 002025703401
Mom and Dad are taking Dixie to her regular vet tomorrow. It's still a wait and see situation. :(
7/5/2009 1:37:31 AM - 001024320926
Even though I'm getting text pictures and messages from you I am going crazy without the usual banter!! Hope Dixie is doing ok? Hope your Mom's nerves calm done too!!
7/3/2009 2:32:16 AM - 001076975951
Jamie, Just want to make a visit before the holiday and wish you a wonderful weekend. HAPPY Fourth to you, your Mom & Dad too. Now I must tell you I am from the south believe it or not. The south of Italy. I was born in Sicily.
Glad the pigs and chicken comments gave you a few laughs. Enjoy and be safe.
7/2/2009 9:31:39 PM - 002025703401
We maybe poor little Beach Bums.....but we eat well! :)
Hope there is time for napping this weekend too! I know that's what Kay and Gina like best about the beach..... :)
Mom has asked several times what you guys are up to....and I told the truth! LOL
Mom told me (before Dad got a chance) that she fell off the last stair on Tuesday. Dad was afraid she broke her arm, but she says just a couple of bruises. (And she wonders where I get my klutziness from.....) I guess, we are going to have to wrap her in bubble wrap.... :(
Car salesmen - Are slimy snakes....they would sell their mother for a buck..... After twenty years, nothing surprises me.
Have a great weekend!
7/2/2009 9:17:00 PM - 002029331419
Well....if I want to see all of the car salesmans tricks...I've seen it first hand!!!!
Jamie...have a great weekend...telll Linda I missed her at the party..not sure if she would have got a word in ...but missed her anyway!!
Seafood and BBQ...yeah....you poor little Beach Bums....NOT!! ha ha
We're here and set up....and it's time for a NAP!!
7/2/2009 8:34:58 PM - 002025703401
Jamie is soooo slick.... :) I just love my new FRIEND Lisa! ;) 
(That wasn't a bus this time, it was a freight train.....)
Starla, girls weekend should be fun!
In the past, there are fireworks as far as the eye can see at the beach. People (with more money than sense) must spend thousands $$$ on fireworks. We just sit back and enjoy the FREE show. And a lot of the fireworks stands have rebuilt, so we'll see. Our quiet holiday weekend has turned into a party weekend....
I'm headed down this evening after work. My friends, Kay and Gina, are coming in the morning to stay all weekend. My friend, Billie along with her husband Garland and son William, are coming down for the day tomorrow. They have never in all these years been to the beach house. We are also expecting my cousin, Maureen and her husband, Pennie for the day. Seafood is on the menu.... :)
On Saturday, my brother Bubba and some more neighbors are coming down for the day. Barbecue is on the menu... :)
Finally, on Sunday, we may get to go fishing! :)
The frig here at work is bulging with my groceries....
Hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday!
7/2/2009 6:16:35 PM - 002055694880
I think its great that LIsa is hosting the next party...I am gonna throw down!! WOO HOO! Hey Jamie. Are you heading to the beach house today? Gonna be so fun. Jason just came home and packed his bag. Had to go to Oklahoma to work for the weekend. Probably won't be home until MOnday or Tuesday. Gonna be quiet around here. So the girls and I will go to Kiowa and watch the fireworks and play all the games. It's gonna be fun.
Have a great time. YOu know you will. Do they usually have fireworks over the water?
7/2/2009 3:19:35 PM - 001024320926
Smooooth, Jamie, smoooooth!
7/2/2009 3:16:07 PM - 002025703401
That is great! See I told you guys that Lisa was hosting the next party.... :)
7/2/2009 2:58:38 PM - 001024320926
Barb is in Alaska!! Oh I'm cool alright!! I have been chosen (coerced) into hosting the next party...............ok I'll do it but I don't think I can be the host with most as Jean was :) Jean rocked it !! I guess next week when I feel a little less tired we can pick out a date, but don't think you're off the hook missy, I will think of something for you to do!!!
Sorry I missed all the convo yesterday I was so tired I went home and got in bed, like at 7p.
7/2/2009 12:22:38 PM - 002025703401
I think Barb told me that Lisa is hosting the next party..... ;)
7/2/2009 4:02:52 AM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie...well, if it's on the internet....then is must be true...hmmm who put it on the internet!! ?? ;0)
Just wanted you to know....tonight - every picture on my computer is backed up!! Whew..I feel so much better, and will be able to sleep better tonight! lol! But taking my laptop for the weekend, if Anything happens...they are here, safe & sound!
7/2/2009 3:29:08 AM - 002025703401
Hey Jean! It's all over the internet, Lisa is hosting the next party! Lisa so cool!!! ;)
7/2/2009 3:11:15 AM - 002029331419
And seafood is the cure for EVERYTHING!!!!!!
7/2/2009 3:10:56 AM - 002029331419
Oh! someone is going to get the bill for the table..... ;0)
And I see that you are setting the stage for Lisa to be the next hostess....and she doesn't even know it ---- does she!!?? Lisa....Did you know that?
7/2/2009 2:07:02 AM - 002025703401
Oh Jean, send the bill for the table to Kimberly....... :)
7/2/2009 2:05:33 AM - 002025703401
Cheri, you're an invalid, beg for seafood this weekend.... Look sad..... The only cure is seafood..... :)
7/2/2009 2:00:54 AM - 000093706714
p.s. the crabs were A.W.E.S.O.M.E!! Unfortunately, I have thought of nothing but seafood since last nite! hehehehehe
7/2/2009 1:59:23 AM - 000093706714
Yes, I have him! Why are you shouting it all over the place! Can't I have ANY fun this summer??? I knew you wouldn't mind and you have already shown you don't mind sharing...so I 'borrowed' him. I'll return him. Promise. Now ssssshhhhhhhh!!!!!
7/1/2009 10:55:43 PM - 002029331419
Trying to dodge that bullet Vacation Nazi??? ehhh?
Lisa.....Jamie says you'll pout if you don't host the next one....is that true?...it's on the internet...
Then I'll have to think of another way to get my table replaced......
7/1/2009 10:43:16 PM - 002025703401
Lisa is hosting the next party....
7/1/2009 10:26:51 PM - 002029331419
Lisa....as a matter of fact ...Noah did build that table....Noah Webster that is!! ah ha hah ha! So you guys go to a party and the next day your all cranky?!? bummmer....
Kim ... Lisa still owes you 5 bucks....
Jamie...I think that the table is a gonner....the only way to redem yourself is by being the next Hostess ....after Alaska of course ... of the next party!! Everyone in favor of Jamie being the next hostess - raise your right hand....wow...did you see all of them go up!?! What' da say Jamie?!?!? huh huh? After your Cruise you Will Need Something to look forward too!! You know you will!!......
7/1/2009 9:01:28 PM - 002025703401
WHOA Missy.... Momma is out of town and doesn't need to know every little thing.....
Good thing Kim doesn't have her cell number! :)
7/1/2009 8:43:10 PM - 002049843840
Jamie is very cranky today....apparently she had a little to much fun last night, with all the dancing and whatnot...wait till I tell Linda. LOL.
7/1/2009 8:35:31 PM - 002025703401
Jean was probably there when Noah carved that table.
I am very tired today or else I would be taking care of Miss Kimberly.... And to think I fed her Mexican food again today! :)
7/1/2009 8:31:17 PM - 001024320926
Jamie Kim called you a point XXXX!!! and then said make something of it!! What did she drink last night??

Wow Jean, did Noah carve that table from the spare wood of the Arc?
7/1/2009 8:29:50 PM - 002025703401
The hip, the knee, the ankle....take your pick!
I'm trying to workup the energy to go take care of Kim's smart mouth.... She's at the other end of the building.... Sooooo, she's safe for now.... :)
7/1/2009 8:26:03 PM - 002055694880
JAMIE! How you feeling? Hip working properly today??!?! I felt something today...not sure if it was a hang over or not. After this day I think I may want one tomorrow! LOL! What have you ladies been up to today? Anywork getting done?

7/1/2009 8:17:23 PM - 002025703401
Kim! Did you just call me a point XXXX? :)
7/1/2009 8:11:49 PM - 002049843840
She just wants the points on her credit card for hotels on trips.
7/1/2009 8:08:45 PM - 002025703401
Do you take Visa or Mastercard......
7/1/2009 6:50:29 PM - 002029331419
Ummm Jamie... that table has been in the family for years...in fact it got to NM in a covered wagon....and before that...it was packed away on the Mayflower.... It was featured on the Antique Roadshow....want to know what it appraised for???
7/1/2009 6:39:44 PM - 002025703401
Shhhhhhh! My mom will be reading this........ She doesn't need to know everything....... :)
7/1/2009 6:33:36 PM - 001024320926
LOL!! Jamie you're gonna have to replace that table!! You are sooo rowdy!
7/1/2009 3:44:54 PM - 002025703401
Joanne, That is the FIRST time Jamie Frederick has ever been called the life of a party......
Thanks!
7/1/2009 2:18:46 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Took a look at the This & That page. I like it. Some funny photos are on that page. Great idea.
7/1/2009 12:48:11 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, you are the life of a party. It was fun. Hope you have a great day. I'll stop by later today and check out your new page.
7/1/2009 1:36:13 AM - 002025703401
One night...our ship docs on Saturday morning and our flight out is late Sunday morning.
6/30/2009 10:18:55 PM - 001024320926
I thought Canada was pretty awesome Jamie. How long are ya'll gonna be there when you go?
6/30/2009 9:40:12 PM - 002029331419
See you girls in about 2 hours!! I'm headed home! :0)
6/30/2009 9:11:57 PM - 002049843840
CHIPPER...CHIPPER....CHIPPER.....
Don't mess with me missy.....
6/30/2009 6:44:25 PM - 002025703401
But Lisa and Kim are sooooo slowwwww.............
6/30/2009 5:35:21 PM - 002055694880
Lisa is working on her page!! The travel clicks page is shut off. Can't wait. Talked to her this morning and she uploaded 599 photos!! 599! Has to be a record!
6/30/2009 4:56:51 PM - 002025703401
You are a sick puppy........ GROSS!!!
6/30/2009 4:55:37 PM - 002049843840
CHIPPER....BRAVES.....CHIPPER.....BRAVES.....CHIPPER.....BRAVES.....
Don't mess with me about my MAN....CHIPPER!!!!
Did I say CHIPPER..... I can't stop myself...CHIPPER.....CHIPPER......CHIPPER....LOL!
This is so much fun!!!!
6/30/2009 3:26:16 PM - 002025703401
Hey! The words Chipper and Braves are banned from my site! Who ever heard of living 60 miles from the Astros and being Atlanta fans (notice I didn't use the banned words...)!!!
6/30/2009 3:22:38 PM - 002049843840
That is true, it is faster here....but it was being slow at home last night so I didn't get very far on my page....will work on it some tonight, between Jean's party and the Braves game (can't miss Chipper).....
6/30/2009 3:17:12 PM - 002025703401
Kim uploads at work because the connection is 20,000 times faster..... She has a really nice boss....
6/30/2009 3:08:49 PM - 001024320926
Bye Linda have a good time, enjoy!!
Jean, Photobooks!!!!??!! I barely have the pictures uploaded. I'll post them at lunch, hopefully :)
What's all the talk about salsa.....pass the chips!!
6/30/2009 2:16:50 PM - 002029331419
Linda and Jamie are in the 4's.......49 days before Alaska!! woot woot!!!
Linda have a great time...soak in the ocean breezes..after all of the garden work these last couple of months..you deserve some R&R.....unless there is fish to fry! :0)
We'll miss you at the party....so Jamie will have to do double chatter time! :0)
6/30/2009 1:49:31 PM - 002055694880
Have Fun Linda and be careful! Change in plans. Customer text me and she is in Kansas hauling horses with her husband and I can't be at the other house until 1. Gonna go at 10:30 and get my hair cut tho.
Love fried fish! It's the best. Do you guys eat trout? We catch trout in Arkansas one after the other and cook them on the grill in foil with a little bit of Lemon......wonderful!
6/30/2009 1:29:36 PM - 002067758981
OK, everyone, we're outa here....try to keep Jamie in line. Hope ya'll have a good time at Jean's party!!!
Missy, you know I'm always last to sit down...too worried that someone's going to need something.
6/30/2009 1:15:52 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Jamie, I am happy that you had a wonderful weekend at the beach house. Sorry that it was way to hot. If I were your parents I too would spend the week at the beach and just enjoy to ocean breeze. I hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend at the beach. You can just sit back and relax.
I had a 50th birthday party. My brother in law turned 50. I do have a few photos on the gallery site if you have time to take a look. I will do my best to stop by before you go away for the weekend. Take care.
6/30/2009 12:18:44 PM - 002025703401
I do protest that comment Mom! You were diving in just as fast.....
6/30/2009 12:10:58 PM - 002067758981
No picture of fish platter....that's because it was the last thing on the table and the fishermen and fisherwomen were starving and dived into their chairs and began to fill their plates!!! You would have thought that they had not eaten in a week!!! So good fresh!!!
If I fry fish for this next bunch thats coming, I'll try to hold them back til I get a picture taken.
6/30/2009 11:34:57 AM - 002055694880
Mornin! No salsa yet....but I will. I have to go buy jars today. Ran out on the peas and beans. Went to Sam's and bought a huge box of bags for all the squash....WOOO! That garden is going crazy right now. Oh pickled some pickles to with that quick ten minute mix and then they sit for twenty four hours.....Can't wait to eat em!
Have a great day ladies. Prob won't see you til the party have two houses today.....Off to work I go!
6/30/2009 3:45:36 AM - 002049843840
A "special" project? Let's see what can that be.....um....I checked you voice mail today, so that can't be it.....um....um.....I wonder what it could be........
And I'm watching the Astros, I can't go to bed yet.
6/30/2009 3:31:12 AM - 002025703401
Kim needs to go to bed! She was CRANKY this morning when she dragged in 45 minutes late.......even later than me! :)
6/30/2009 3:28:54 AM - 002029331419
Jamie, Kim thinks we are impatient and expect way to much from her and Lisa! ... Kim you bumped me off of Lisa's site with your post!! LOL!!! Tooo funny!!
6/30/2009 3:19:17 AM - 000074469281
Hey Jamie,
Thank you for the birthday song. I think a birdie got the word out!! Thanks again. Sorry to be quick. I'm trying to thank everyone b4 i head to bed. Thanks again. It was a nice treat seeing all of u wishing me a happy bday.
6/30/2009 3:15:29 AM - 002029331419
Jamie...I was really expecting to see photo books from both of them tonight...and that they were going to be featured on the gallery starting on Wed...... I'm so disappointed! ;0)
Linda...my hubby is so excited that we're having CPP....!! :0) No picture of that platter of fish you cooked up!?! Wha....????
6/30/2009 3:01:57 AM - 002049843840
Dude you need to chill, we are doing the best we can, right Lisa!
6/30/2009 1:55:02 AM - 002025703401
Hey!
Worked late and had to pickup a package for Mom & Dad to take down to the beach house. We are still putting the utility room downstairs back together. We actually got about 3/4 inch of rain this evening. Can't even tell it!
Lisa and Kim are soooooo slowwwwww posting their trip pictures. Some of us are not very good at waiting. I wonder who? :)
6/30/2009 1:47:15 AM - 002067758981
Missy has been busy...just left here, will be on line soon I'm sure.
6/30/2009 1:01:09 AM - 001024320926
8 Saturdays til you set sail that's awesome!!!!
Linda ya'll have a wonderful time tomorrow, catch as much as ya can :) Sounds pretty great to me!
Jamie!! Where are ya???
6/30/2009 12:57:35 AM - 002067758981
Hey Lisa, welcome back!!! Hope you had a great time...I know you did, Vancouver, Lisa and a camera......how could that not be great. Got a haircut today but do not promise that will help, so maybe she won't catch me. Too hot here, going back to beach house in the morning.......husband has fishing fever bad. They caught some very nice specks......brother coming down also, so they'll have a good time. The girls (dogs) and I will hang out, rest and read!! Heaven.
6/30/2009 12:43:55 AM - 000093706714
Hey Jamie.......Hope you are having SUMMER FUN! I went on my first boat ride this past weekend! YEAH! It was wonderful.
I viewed the Mother Nature Page today. Very cool moon shots!
Will stop by again soon. You are in my thoughts. Cheri
6/30/2009 12:10:37 AM - 001024320926
Love the flag up top :)
Holy mac and cheese I'm in bed on the This and That page!! Linda that's payment for the hair photo of you on mine :) LOL!!
I'm back. Work was a holy nightmare busy today!! I wasn't able to get around to the sites til just now!! I missed ya :) I kept thinking I wonder who's getting poked by Jean's stick and if Jamie had to pull out any one liners :)
Vancouver was pretty awesome!! I uploaded to the computer today but they are upoading to Shutterfly right now, says 7 hours!! So no pictures til tomorrow :(
So what happened? What's new? What's going on?
6/29/2009 10:42:10 PM - 002025703401
It is actually thundering! We hope the heat showers are over our houses. The rain will just make it a sauna out there... But, we will take whatever we can get.
6/29/2009 10:31:09 PM - 002029331419
Nice flag Jamie!
Linda, I hope you enjoy the beach!! Feeling that cool breeze....nice way to make it through the summer until the rains come!
6/29/2009 10:19:08 PM - 002071551455
Soooo, are you saying you are just using me? lol
6/29/2009 10:09:51 PM - 002025703401
I ONLY ride with Marcia when my vehicle is in the shop.....
6/29/2009 9:50:10 PM - 002071551455
Hey I never drive too fast or too close, if I had been it would have been all over. Jamie drives like a little old lady. I tried to follow her once to her mothers, my car just won't run that slow. It is fun when she has to ride with me at lunch though. She hangs on for dear life.
6/29/2009 9:17:03 PM - 002025703401
Marcia's driving is NOT my fault! She must have been driving too fast and too close.... Trust me on this..... :)
6/29/2009 8:07:17 PM - 002071551455
Hey the cell phone pictures look good and I see the rainbow did turn out. For all of you that don't know I was traveling down the freeway, called Jamie and told her about the rainbow. She said get a picture. About the time I took that picture all the traffic on the road stopped and I had to slam on my brakes to keep from slamming into the car in front of me.
6/29/2009 7:58:45 PM - 002025703401
Someone on Cruise Critic said we only have 8 Saturdays until we sail!!!
6/29/2009 7:53:29 PM - 002067758981
Wahooo! Less than 50 days til we leave.
6/29/2009 7:18:42 PM - 002029331419
Thanks Linda and Jamie! I have everything except the crust!...Yumm He'll be soo happy! :0)
6/29/2009 3:56:42 PM - 002029331419
You can just email it to me if that makes it easier....don't have to post it ..unless you just wanted to do all of that work! :0)
6/29/2009 3:37:12 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, you hear Jean....needs recipe for chicken pot pie.......remember how to do it? Or you workin'? Trying to keep Darla and Kim awake?
6/29/2009 3:23:38 PM - 002029331419
yeaaaaa!! You guys are back!! Sounds like right now...the Beach is the place to be! :0) This and That - fun pictures!!
Bummer Kim...you didn't get today off... lol!
Jamie, that's a long commute...and you said there is a lot of traffic too...but cooler temps ...and that is where Linda is going to be! But no internet in the evenings....hmmm that's a pretty tough problem to decide!
Yes! Linda... I would like to surprise hubby with CPP this weekend when we're camping..I have an oven and can use that! We might get showers so a warm oven in the trailer will be perfect while watching a movie!! ;0)
6/29/2009 12:41:21 PM - 002067758981
I didn't know that Darla was a princess!!! WOW
I like the page!
And yes, think about commuting from beach.
6/29/2009 3:40:43 AM - 002049843840
Just looked at your this and that page, it's really cool. Some of the pics make us look like dorks but it's still neat. I'll be more careful of what I send now......since it might (will) end up on here.....;)
6/29/2009 3:28:36 AM - 002055694880
This and that page is GREAT!!!!! Lisa's photo is fuzzy but I know its her! That is great!!!
How was it?? Have a ball?? Jason loaded us up about 6 or so and was already liquored up and boy you should have heard the words I had for him setiing that camper up in the dark and mesquitos. Glad we are home now and he goes back to work tomorrow....with water blisters. He fried!! Poor thing! Next time when I say put on sunscreen maybe he will.....or wear a shirt!
6/29/2009 3:04:08 AM - 002025703401
Check out This & That - Odds & Ends page.....
6/29/2009 2:59:20 AM - 002049843840
Alright....I guess I'll see you tomorrow :)
6/29/2009 2:58:07 AM - 002025703401
Hum.... Let me think..... NO!
See you tomorrow.... :)
6/29/2009 2:35:39 AM - 002049843840
I think I need another day to recover from our trip.....what do ya say Jam......
6/29/2009 2:23:03 AM - 002025703401
No sneaking involved, they are leaving me a list of things to do! I'm almost tempted to commute from there....
6/29/2009 1:50:35 AM - 002049843840
I would never have done that to you.....are you taking your camera to Alaska, because I'm thinking blackmail pictures of Jamie and if you need help putting them on here I'm sure Kay would help or I could help.....eh..eh..eh
The heat is aweful here, at least we had several days of cooler temps on our trip (60's & 70's) and sometimes cooler. The beach does sound good, you gonna sneak off again and leave Jamie behind to work....... LOL
6/29/2009 1:21:06 AM - 002067758981
Jean, I do have a good and easy pot pie recipe. I'll get Jamie to post it soon!
6/29/2009 1:18:25 AM - 002067758981
Hey Kim, glad you are back. Can you believe she did that to her MOMMA? lol She could have gotten a bunch of windblown ones this week-end. Gotta have a haircut!!!
Ugh!! too hot at home!! Joe and I may go back to beach Tuesday, breeze down there!!
6/28/2009 8:42:09 PM - 002049843840
I have been doing some catching up on everyone's pages and Jamie you ought to be ashamed sending a picture of your mom for all the internet world to see. Now I see what happens when you are left unsurpervised for a whole week. stir....stir....stir...LOL.
Aren't you glad I'm back, you missed us I know!!
6/26/2009 9:43:48 PM - 002055694880
Have a blast!! Catch a BIg one!
6/26/2009 9:38:58 PM - 002025703401
On the road again..... Talked to Mom, they caught fish this morning, so tonight's menu is guess..... UGH, gotta escape this heat, everyone is very cracky (being in the car business doesn't help either).....
Hope everyone has a great weekend! :)
6/26/2009 9:01:08 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, OVER 100°F OUCH!! That has got to hurt. Have a wonderful time at your beach house. And keep cool. I have a 50th Birthday dinner to attend. My BIL, Joe's younger brother.
Enjoy your weekend. :-)
6/26/2009 8:43:46 PM - 002029331419
oooo you guys are schemers.....
106 ..... ugh..... Head to the Beach Woman!!
6/26/2009 6:41:57 PM - 002025703401
Starla, That will be great. We need to keep Katie (Marcia's sister) busy....
That would work sending Jason the photo. As a matter of fact, one the pictures Lisa posted was a photo I forwarded from Kim....
6/26/2009 6:32:01 PM - 002055694880
Thank you for checking out my new page.
I talked to Mary and she said Louie already took the hair to the dumpster but wait until next spring and you can have it!
Lisa has one of those phones that has a USB port....hey so does Jason's. I could send the photo to his phone and plug it into my computer and upload that photo of her in bed.....He's fishing tho so it'll have to wait until he gets home.
6/26/2009 6:27:49 PM - 002025703401
It was 106 in the car at lunch time... HOT! HOT! HOT!
Lisa texted me that she was on the hop on hop off trolley....
6/26/2009 6:02:00 PM - 002029331419
Yea!! It's going to be a really good weekend to be at the beach!
So far the last 3 phones I've had...when I've had to get a new one, it's because the battery won't hold a charge anymore. That's the only thing wrong with the phone! When I turned in my last phone - the guy says " wow..this is really old school, I can't remember the last time I saw one of these!"...I told him to be nice...I am old and take care of my stuff! Ha!
My phone is a simple one too...that's good enough for me! :0)
6/26/2009 4:23:47 PM - 002025703401
I have a plain razor phone.... I pretend I hate phones otherwise the bosses would have me attached to it! It is so rude when you are in a meeting and they are "playing" on their phones. If I had a "fancy one", that would blow my cover! :)
Just talked to Mom. She is sitting on the upstairs porch enjoying the breeze. :(
6/26/2009 4:02:24 PM - 002029331419
Ouch! Your at work slaving away and he's fishing...without missing you - yet! He's just hoping to catch some before you get down there and the jump on your hook and make his catch look bad! he he
Software for your phone - to download pics...you have one of those Blackberry kind? Rob has one and has fun showing me all of the bells and whistles it has on it!
6/26/2009 2:26:54 PM - 002025703401
I will sleep on the blow up mattress if I really like our guests...... Usually for Gina and Kay!
Sent a morning wake call to Kim and Darla, but no response. I think they turn their phones off at night......
But, Ms Lisa sent me a photo of her still in the bed.... Payback for Mom's rib picture!!! That will make my website. She also called me a Drill Commander, but I corrected her. I am a Vacation Commander! She reminded me that it was only 6am.....
Had to order some software to download pictures from my phone. Should get it next week. Marcia and I have the same phones, so we are going to share. :)
Also gave Mom a wake up call, but she was already up. Dad, uncle and aunt are already out fishing. Sent uncle a text message asking if he felt guilty fishing without me.... His reply.... "Nope"
That was not very nice! :)
6/26/2009 2:18:12 PM - 002029331419
Do you have dibs on the blow up matteress? ;0) Anything from Kim or Lisa....did you send your Good Morning Sunshine greeting? ha! I'm cleaning house this morning ... see just because I'm off...doesn't mean I'm off from work!
6/26/2009 11:02:04 AM - 002025703401
The house has 3 king size beds, 2 couches, and a blowup mattress. We may have more guests next weekend.
Everyone needs to checkout Starla's "The Great Outdoors" page. She has llamas and some other great shots. Some really cool moon shots and a rainbow.
6/26/2009 3:53:18 AM - 002029331419
Sounds like a full house...and lots of fun at the beach this weekend Jamie!
6/26/2009 3:52:52 AM - 002029331419
That is very cool!!!! I think some day....more paths will cross for some of us!! :0)
I bet she's going to have a hard time sleeping tonight....she has tomorrow to look forward to and lots of pics to take! :0)
6/26/2009 3:18:34 AM - 002055694880
Yeah she told me ....I think that is awesome. So fun!
6/26/2009 3:18:15 AM - 002055694880
llamas are POSTED! On the new page.
6/26/2009 2:11:10 AM - 002025703401
Gotta text from Lisa! She got to meet Barb!
6/26/2009 1:18:52 AM - 002025703401
Mom called from High Island (about 20 minutes from the beach house) to tell me they had left.... :)
I'm trying to gather up my stuff tonight, so I don't have to drive back here tomorrow evening. Tomorrow is also Dad's birthday (67), so I've got to get his gift together. My aunt and uncle are also going down tomorrow to fish with Dad.
Gotta go looking for Starla's llama pictures. :)
6/26/2009 12:19:49 AM - 002055694880
I am uploading llamas now. It was funnier in person but got a few good shots. Lisa is having a ball!
6/26/2009 12:15:51 AM - 002029331419
Did your Mom and Dad make it to the Beach house ok? Your going up tomorrow after work..right?
6/25/2009 7:08:29 PM - 002025703401
I was trying to wait you out... So, gonna tell me???? Where do I need to read it?
6/25/2009 7:03:48 PM - 002029331419
awwwww I wasn't that far off for her ETA, huh!!
I'm really surprised you haven't ???? on my secret...or you didn't read that?
6/25/2009 6:51:53 PM - 002025703401
Hey! Guess what? Just got a text from Lisa! "Just Landed"
Now we need to watch the news for any international incidents......
6/25/2009 6:49:02 PM - 002029331419
Think Lisa has taken all of the pictures she can of the cool stuff at the airport...before you get to Customs...yet? he he
6/25/2009 6:47:34 PM - 002029331419
I pick smart!! Thinking..NO!! :0)
6/25/2009 6:22:41 PM - 002025703401
Coward!..... Chicken!....... Smart!........ Don't Trust Us??? :) :)
6/25/2009 6:21:09 PM - 002029331419
...It ain't happening!!....
6/25/2009 6:09:53 PM - 002025703401
See Jean, that's why Lisa and I neeeeed your cell number. We could give you a WAKE UP call every Friday morning....... What a great service we provide! :)
6/25/2009 6:01:17 PM - 002029331419
It's ok...she knows she keeps you hopping...it helps to keep you outta trouble! :0)
6/25/2009 5:44:55 PM - 002025703401
Watch out Jean, Momma is not actually leaving til this afternoon. She had a nail appointment this morning....
6/25/2009 5:40:21 PM - 002029331419
See?!?!?!? You self confession of being 'evil'....didn't show - until I posted!!
I'm really glad they are having a good time..but some altitude with heat and hiking thrown in - yeah....I bet they were glad to crash in bed early!
6/25/2009 5:37:24 PM - 002029331419
Wake up Jamie!! No Momma to keep you hopping... No Kim to keep you busy..No Lisa to keep you laughing! Just me to give you a wake up shout!! :0) And have you noticed how long it takes to post something on Sfly...wonder why it takes so long now?
6/25/2009 3:38:55 PM - 002025703401
I am evil... Texted Kim and Darla both with a wake up call..... Darla replied that she was up waiting on Kim.
So, I called Darla. They are tired but having a great time. Darla thinks they got a lot of great shots yesterday. Kim even did tripod group shots yesterday. Darla says she is working on weird cloud pictures. Lodge had no TV and they were worried about what to do last night.... Ended up sooo tired that they went to bed at 9. That's my little party animals!!! :)
6/25/2009 3:17:35 PM - 002025703401
Kim text updates from yesterday:
Kim - "Just got back from Cape Royal drive. It was beautiful. Now it's nap time!"
Later I received an awesome photo, with the caption "From Lodge Deck"
Last Night - Kim - "No sunset pics, too cloudy"
Today, they are headed to Bryce Canyon National Park. Wonder if Kim needs a wakeup call.... (insert evil laugh)...... :) :)
6/25/2009 2:40:18 PM - 002029331419
What have you heard from Kim....They may get some rain today or tomorrow...at least it would cool things down a bit.
6/25/2009 2:34:50 PM - 002029331419
Thanks for the Lisa update!! :0) How fun that your parents are headed to the beach ...and you to follow...hopefully there's a good breeze down there to cool things off!
They will have fun getting your Dad's freezer all set up - sounds like he wants to do some serious fishing now!
6/25/2009 3:34:21 AM - 002029331419
At least we learned from that one...and took our Alaska and Mexico Cruise...when we really enjoyed the ports!! LOL!! ....and your humidity is what makes it so crazy! We started out with 27% this morning at 7am - by the time I got home from work...it was up to 60% and we have what is called 'swamp coolers' ... which put moisture in the air...so when humidity goes up - they don't work as well. But right now we have the patio door open and the fan on...and it's very comfortable. High desert does have it's perks...it gets hot...but cools off when the sun goes down.
Weather...that's what were talking about !! Ha ha!...LOL!!
6/25/2009 3:00:40 AM - 002025703401
Bet you got a REALLY good deal on that Caribbean cruise.....
There was no breeze, so the air was very stifling. Most of the time, we have at least a slight gulf breeze. Since we had no breeze, I bet it was hot even at the beach..... The water is beautiful when the wind lays down, but then it can get really HOT.
I was just checking the local weather forcast for tomorrow and found this:
The temperature has broken a record for this day in Beaumont, with the thermometer hitting 102 at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, according to KFDM meteorologist Kerry Cooper.
Kerry says the temperature broke a record set on June 24, 1995 when the high temperature in Beaumont was 97.
The high temperature in the region was 104 in Vidor.
The temperature should cool off a few degrees Thursday.
It was "FREAKIN HOT"!
6/25/2009 2:48:04 AM - 002029331419
August in the Carribean....what were we thinking!?!?!?!?!
6/25/2009 2:47:26 AM - 002029331419
OH YUMMM!! Jamie!! Your brining Pei Wei to the Party!!....I knew I liked you for some reason...he he!
I think the hottest place I can remember being was on our first Cruise about 3 summers ago and we were so excited that we got a great deal to the Carribean....It was SO HOT...I could hardly breath!!..The air just wouldn't move into my lungs!! We did a snorkel adventure and stayed in the water the whole time! Belieze was .... just leave me in my room...hot!!! Is it like that?
6/25/2009 2:41:55 AM - 002067758981
That's a devil!!!! I can catch up when I get home, you know.
6/25/2009 2:20:55 AM - 002025703401
Saving the pictures for Jean's party on Tuesday......
OMG, it was 110 when I got in the car at 6 to go meet the parents for dinner. Lisa is right, we call it "Freakin HOT"!
They came to town to pickup a new freezer for downstairs at the beach house. You do not want my dad putting his fish, fishy bait, or fishy ice jugs in your good upstairs freezer... :)
Gonna be really quiet til Kim and Lisa return. Mom and Dad are heading to the beach house tomorrow too.
Jean, that leaves me and you...... We can talk about all of them.....
6/25/2009 2:11:28 AM - 002067758981
OMG!!! Jamie took pictures just for you Jean. My shrimp were excellent!! And crab wontons were not bad that we shared.
6/25/2009 1:37:44 AM - 002029331419
And how was the family dinner table with chop sticks tonight? :0)
6/25/2009 12:53:05 AM - 001024320926
Ok Jamie, I have been insane busy today and now I'm saying 'see ya' til Monday :) Hope to have tons of good pictures, maybe make ya proud :) Have a great week and weekend :) That's to you too Linda :) Be good!
6/24/2009 11:21:53 PM - 001024320926
Anything over 100 is called 'freaking hot' here!!
6/24/2009 8:59:40 PM - 002067758981
Hitting the shower now. I look worst than I did Saturday right now, good thing you're not here with that camera!! Have corn in my hair, been cutting corn off the cobb, freezing eggplant & made 2 batches of zucchini cake.
6/24/2009 8:45:12 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, LOVE the Beach page. Great photos and a fabulous header too. You have created a site that is like a vacation getaway. OOOOHH I like it here.
6/24/2009 7:23:18 PM - 002025703401
Actually, my grandparents built a house around 75ish. By 2002, the family was getting so large that we decide to purchase our own. Would you believe that house also survived the storm. My grandpa and uncles could build a good house! We were actually very shocked to see it still standing. That house was sold when grandpa starting getting ill.
6/24/2009 7:15:46 PM - 002029331419
Well...that 'splains it....they used the gooood lumber for the house! You've been having fun there since '02!!
6/24/2009 7:04:55 PM - 002067758981
'02
6/24/2009 7:03:46 PM - 002025703401
The beach house was built in 87 (date on the cement slab). We bought it from a family that owned a lumber business in Lufkin. It is very well built. I can't remember what year we purchased it. Mom?
In reference to the heat, aren't ya glad to have an inside job? :)
6/24/2009 6:46:49 PM - 002067758981
Hades hot is what it is!!!!
6/24/2009 6:39:48 PM - 002029331419
Isn't that almost Africa Hot?
6/24/2009 6:37:05 PM - 002029331419
I know that one of the things that we have seen around here is when a fire is going through somewhere and it takes out a lot of homes - Los Alamos fires in 2000. When we drive through that area of the mountains, there is still so many areas that are just bare. Los Alamos town...most of the homes were rebuilt. Building stronger homes will always be a help for when disasters come. Disasters do come...to many areas...it just depends on what kind hits each area! Did you guys build your beach home orginally?
6/24/2009 6:34:14 PM - 002025703401
The temp in my car at lunch was 107.... It's HOT!
6/24/2009 6:26:47 PM - 002029331419
Linda, your welcome
Linda, your welcome
Linda, your welcome...... he he ;0)
6/24/2009 6:00:23 PM - 002067758981
Jean, thank you so much for the kind words, most people in our neighborhood are working to make their place better. Some have given up hope of rebuilding. The new ones will be built stronger and able to face the next one should it come our way.
6/24/2009 5:07:07 PM - 001024320926
Oh and it is now ok to be funny because I'm back :)
6/24/2009 5:05:43 PM - 001024320926
Well there has to be something good coming from such destruction, so a brand new dream kitchen it is!! I love the pictures of Linda's kitchen and I'm sure it has already been stained with laughter and a little salsa :)
6/24/2009 4:46:26 PM - 002025703401
A happy note about the damage done by Rita.
Mom & Dad had discussed knocking out walls and remodeling for years. Well the insurance company said they didn't care how it was rebuilt, so the contractor built the great room and kitchen Mom always wanted and Dad got his big screen TV.... :)
6/24/2009 4:32:54 PM - 002025703401
Gosh, I really didn't mean to make everyone feel bad or sorry for us. I wanted to document the forces of Mother Nature. Hurricanes are not something to play around with.
Just like tornado or earthquake areas, we live in a hurricane area and have to deal with it. We are Texans. We pick ourselves up, don't wait for government handouts, rebuild, and go on with life.
In April, we decide to sale the beach house. It is listed with a realtor thru October. But, we are now having second thoughts with the heat wave and the great time we had last weekend. There is still a lot of work to be done, but the peninsula changes for the better every week.
My family thanks you for your support and kind words.
6/24/2009 4:13:08 PM - 001024320926
Ok back in May when I went to Galveston, first time since Ike, I cried when I saw the seawall and how much was missing. Then I cried when I drove out to Surfside Beach and saw all the homes missing or destroyed. I felt a tremendous sense of pride for all the rebuilding and the clean up too. So then I come to know Linda and Jamie, now there's a face in the damage. I looked at the pictures and cried again, I'm so sorry for the devastation that Huricanes bring you. I feel that same sense of pride for you too though, knowing that you're doing what you have to do and surviving, not letting it best you. I'm proud to know you both and wish you all the best :)
6/24/2009 4:04:09 PM - 001024320926
OMG!! I had a novel written and you bumped me! You'll get pictures!! Calm down. I'll go to the bank and get a loan for all the MMS pictures I have to send!
6/24/2009 4:02:59 PM - 002025703401
Lisa you are soooo cheap! We are worth it.... :)
6/24/2009 3:59:28 PM - 001024320926
OMG I just had a thought Jamie!! I was going to send you pictures from my phone and realized it's international...................that's a problem isn't it? Dang, drat, darn it!!!
6/24/2009 3:01:47 PM - 001076975951
Good day Jamie, How are things going for you? 55 days and counting....
Thanks Jamie, for viewing my book and the kind comments. I am glad you like the raindrops. they do add that extra beauty to the roses, Have a wonderful day.
6/24/2009 2:52:28 PM - 002029331419
Linda and Jamie - - I just finished looking at the additions from the Hurricane's and I have to say that I am so sorry for you, your neighbors..that island! .....sad...so sad! But! Encouraged by that Texan Spirit to rebuild! I'm sure the emotions that surged back when going through all of those pictures was very wearing. Pictures do have a way to make us relive - the saddest ~ happiest ~ funniest and most amazing moments! That's why we love our camera's and what we capture with them! Jamie...good job!! Linda you have an amazing daughter...and she's a Lot like Her Mommmma!!! {{hugs}} Jean
6/24/2009 2:22:05 PM - 002025703401
I thought Dad was buying????
6/24/2009 1:06:41 PM - 002067758981
Hard for me to look, I know that it had to be tough to put together....you did awesome job, Jamie, I might not say it enough, but I am very proud of you!!!
Now, are you takeing us to Pei Wei tonight? LOL
6/24/2009 12:57:29 PM - 002025703401
That was a hard page to put together. See we are being serious just for Lisa.... :)
6/24/2009 12:26:11 PM - 002067758981
Pictures on Mother Nature made me cry again.......................brings everything back!!! Reminds me how lucky we were compared to everyone else that lost everything.
6/24/2009 11:46:10 AM - 001024320926
Headed out to surgery this morning, I'll check back later :) Don't do anything funny without me :) Oh, Jamie I love all the new weather icons on my site and the addition to the task list on the Texas page :)
6/24/2009 2:51:08 AM - 001024320926
Ahhhhh!! You're worried for me :) I will be alone all day Friday, that's when I plan on doing the trolley. Thursday, Saturday and Sunday I'll have Nora and Beverly with me :) I'm sure we'll get into plenty of the photo opportunities :) :) If something happens I'll call my hook up, Jamie, and see what kind of magic she can pull off :)
Awesome news about Kim, I'm hoping they have a grand time, get it 'grand' time, get it....I crack myself up :)
Linda thanks for coming by the site today and checking out the pictures :) We had fun, love the ocean :)
6/23/2009 11:00:10 PM - 002025703401
Just talked to Kim on the phone. They are at the north rim of the Grand Canyon. Told her to go take sunset pictures this evening.
6/23/2009 9:15:48 PM - 002025703401
Lisa, guess who I told about our conversation...... Do you feel special being on the worry list??? :)
6/23/2009 8:49:00 PM - 002067758981
As you girls can tell, I'm the worrier....Kim this week and Lisa next. We'll miss you if you get lost, just call Jamie and she can probably tell how to get back to hotel from Beaumont.....LOL
6/23/2009 8:46:32 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, now I'm worried....Jamie says you'll be on your own. Don't get lost! You'll be in photo heaven if weather is good. Stanley Park at sunset!!! Wonderful seafood accross the street, what more could Texas gal want.
6/23/2009 8:13:39 PM - 002067758981
She does know how to get the most out of a vacation!!! If you go somewhere with Jamie, you can say that you've seen most important things a city has to offer.
6/23/2009 7:27:27 PM - 001024320926
Linda I'll take instructions any time :) She can yell them and I'll be happy :)
6/23/2009 7:10:25 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, did she give you travel instructions? Jamie, not instructions, suggestions!!! Hope you gave Lisa suggestions.................she just gives Kay and I instructions or orders. 67 sounds good, real good.
6/23/2009 6:52:57 PM - 001024320926
Jamie I can't wait to be 67 degree temps! Woo Hoo!! Going on a trip!! Got travel instructions from Jamie and I good to go :)

6/23/2009 4:49:31 PM - 002067758981
I'd better be careful....Lisa, hope its cool where you'll be.
6/23/2009 4:41:34 PM - 002025703401

Comb or not.....was the rib good?!??!
6/23/2009 2:57:04 PM - 002067758981
Speaking of Kim, Jamie have you heard from them today?
Or are you working, now?
6/23/2009 2:54:31 PM - 002029331419
Your right Linda - but we can all see that since Kim is gone for the week.....Jamie is having a hard time focusing at work .... ;0)
6/23/2009 2:51:04 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, you need to work too.
6/23/2009 2:40:36 PM - 001024320926
Ok Jamie I jacked around so much yesterday that today I actually have to work :) Back at lunch :)
Starla, Jean has the stick!!
6/23/2009 2:39:44 PM - 001024320926
Linda Jamie said you knocked her down for that rib :)
6/23/2009 2:33:40 PM - 002025703401
OH PLEASE........ That is the worst bad acting ever!
6/23/2009 2:22:56 PM - 002067758981
Starla, please help an ole woman.......unable to afford a comb from the looks of picture on Lisa's site. I thought Jamie was taking picture of just the rib, but no, put her Mother looking like a poor, poor ole woman. I can't seem to handle all three at one time......sniff.....sniff........LOL
6/23/2009 1:12:54 PM - 000093706714
I smell trouble.......................
6/23/2009 1:06:14 PM - 002055694880

6/23/2009 1:04:06 PM - 002055694880
OK so I just spent the probably the last hour going over your girls sites......and all I have to say is..............................:)~
LISA DIANE!!!!!
JAMIE LYNN!!
JEAN LOUISE!!!!!!!
(not sure if those are your middle names or not but you get the point!)
A weekend with me can temp you to do things that you normally wouldn't do........
Not sure what that was that hit me....Felt like a train I think.
6/23/2009 2:35:03 AM - 002029331419
Therapy....camping (no internet)....
6/23/2009 2:19:29 AM - 002025703401
How will you EVER survive two weeks without us.....
6/23/2009 1:25:24 AM - 002067758981
Yea!! Not that you'll miss us, but it is going to happen!!!
6/23/2009 1:22:27 AM - 002029331419
Have I told you gals that I'm going to miss you in 56 days?
6/23/2009 1:21:18 AM - 002067758981
Jean, you're good, real good!!
6/23/2009 1:14:55 AM - 002025703401
Bring it on!!!!
6/23/2009 1:00:27 AM - 002029331419
I think it was shaking up there - to remind Jamie down here - she better be a nice girl down here - before she becomes a tourist up there!
6/22/2009 11:11:24 PM - 002067758981
Sure, blame Lisa....Have you read about earthquake?
6/22/2009 10:56:18 PM - 002025703401
Never been to an earthquake before......
I bet Lisa is responsible....... ;)
6/22/2009 10:40:46 PM - 002067758981
Jean, see what I put up with.........sigh
6/22/2009 10:39:16 PM - 002067758981
Oh yeah, when we finally decide to spend the money to go, I have to worry about earthquakes and tsunami. Lisa, did you ask Joanne to report this to us to take my mind off my picture being posted for the world to see? Luckly, she didn't take a picture of me with my mouth full...............LOL Just moments later and she would have had that......guess she was busy with her own rib.
6/22/2009 10:26:17 PM - 001076975951
Jamie did you her the latest news report?
ANCHORAGE (AP) — A strong earthquake jolted urban areas of Alaska on Monday, sending people diving under desks and huddling in doorways.
The U.S. Geological Survey said an earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 5.7 struck near the town of Willow at 11:28 a.m. Monday. The epicenter was 58 miles from the state's largest city, Anchorage, where the rumbled continued for several moments.
The West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center reported the quake's magnitude at a slightly weaker 5.3 and said no tsunami will be generated.
There are no immediate reports of damage or injury, but the shaking was felt over a wide swatch of southcentral Alaska.
Aftershocks were shaking the area, with one about a half-hour later measuring 4.1.
6/22/2009 10:17:51 PM - 002025703401
Starla is sooo going to take care of you.......
6/22/2009 10:12:24 PM - 001024320926
Minding your own business, riiiiiiiiiight :) I called Starla, she's at the pool with friends, and told her that she was being trash talked!! She said to say "yeah I did it, so." That's what she said to say!!
6/22/2009 9:58:53 PM - 002067758981
Somebody bumped me!!!
6/22/2009 9:57:35 PM - 002029331419
There I was.... On my own site .... Minding My Own Site Business....
6/22/2009 9:53:30 PM - 002025703401
Jean are you trying to take Kim's place as the crawfish this week?
6/22/2009 9:51:34 PM - 002029331419
No it's not Starla's fault, I didn't say that!! - I'm just saying after a fantastic weekend with Starla..because she is one fun gal - that it should not be a surprise to anyone, that your creative ideas were flowing and you'd come up with a page to put cell phone pictures on it after Jamie sent you that picture of Linda!!! Which I think Jamie knew would end up somewhere else besides her phone - when she took it, but only because she already HAS a Blackmail Page!
6/22/2009 9:34:07 PM - 001024320926
Everything is Starla's fault!!!! Jean I just broke your stick, broke it, SNAPO!! Pot stirrer!! Jamie just pushed me in front of a bus, see the tire track on my forehead!! The cell picture was hypnotizing, all I saw was a rib :) Linda's hair was much later :) BTW Linda did I tell you how great I think you are :)
I can take Starla, shhhh don't tell her :)
6/22/2009 9:12:03 PM - 002025703401
Starla may hurt all of us......
6/22/2009 8:53:48 PM - 002029331419
I will, if you will...... Lisa??? Are you in? ... Jamie thinks that Starla can take some heat....What'da think?....
6/22/2009 8:51:33 PM - 002025703401
So, now let's blame it all on Starla....... evil, very evil..... LOL :)
6/22/2009 8:48:05 PM - 002029331419
Oh...I see.... it's so clear now ..that you were just showing her ...and didn't think for a second that Lisa would find it hysterical and create a page with cell phone pictures...and she just spent a weekend with Starla?!?!
6/22/2009 8:38:56 PM - 002025703401
That's Lisa.... I was just showing her what we were doing.....
6/22/2009 8:36:42 PM - 002029331419

Jean, Lisa has a new page called Cellphone Goodies.... Somebody is in TROUBLE.... :0)
6/22/2009 7:26:38 PM - 002067758981
No Jean, Missy had menu already planned..lol Will have one next week-end though!!! I am not talking much to Lisa and Jamie, they are on my list right now.
6/22/2009 7:17:23 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie...sounds like your summer has kicked off in a big fishing sort of way! Did your Mom have a big fish fry with your catch of the day?
Our next camping weekend will be the 2-5 - in a more northern part of NM. We went there last year for just 2 nights and could have totally stayed a week! ha!
And....I thought that it was a wise decision to NOT hunt the bears in the area! :0)
Hmm I don't get pictures on my cell phone...it would have been lost in cell phone outter space!
6/22/2009 3:08:16 PM - 002025703401
My version of the weekend..... :)
Fished with Dad on Sat & Sun mornings. We caught 7 large, nice specks in total. Dad was a happy camper! His birthday is next Friday, so we are planning on going again next weekend if the weather holds. Could not resist sending pictures to Lisa or my uncle.... My uncle and his wife may go with us next weekend!
Lisa - Mom "made" me send the rib picture... :) Jean won't give Lisa & I her cell number!!! See what she is missing..... ;) That was a new rib recipe, and I must say they were excellent! We also had fried shrimp... Totally off the diet this weekend. I'm on bread and water this week....
Took lots of photos this weekend! Even my dad was telling me to get a shot!
Bolivar Peninsula is really coming along on the storm cleanup. Our neighbor is trying to get us not to sell the house....
The Weather Channel was broadcasting from Crystal Beach this morning, part of their hurricane week.
6/22/2009 2:32:00 PM - 002067758981
K. Love your sunset picture on Mother Nature!!!
6/22/2009 2:31:12 PM - 002025703401
Check Kim's site for the story..... :) :)
6/22/2009 2:30:20 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, have you heard from Kim and Darla today?
6/22/2009 2:24:01 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, I see from your mom's post that you had a good time fishing with your dad. That's wonderful. I will have to have a look around and see what is new here. Have a great day.
6/22/2009 12:32:56 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, glad you guys had a great week-end. We did too. Jamie and her Dad had a good time fishing and the girls(dogs) and I had a good time relaxing away from garden!!!
6/22/2009 11:49:26 AM - 001024320926
Jamie I loved all the pictures!! Looks like it was a successful fishing trip too!! Randy was jealous when I showed him :) You almost killed him with the rib picture :) :) We had a great time with Starla and the family. Man the wind was blowing and going!!! More later gotta go work for a while, Lisa
6/20/2009 4:16:24 AM - 000093706714
I got a big smile on my face today opening the mail. Thanks girl. I know it is going to be a little up and down these next several weeks but I am doing my best to keep my chin up. VERY unaccustomed to laying around / sleeping this much.....I am sure that as soon as I can move around more that my good spirits will return. Thanks Jamie.......
BIG HUGS!
Cheri
6/20/2009 2:39:42 AM - 002049843840

6/19/2009 9:00:10 PM - 001024320926
Jamie sorry I was busy trying to get outta here!! Have a wonderful weekend fishing!! I'll talk to ya soon :)
6/19/2009 8:14:53 PM - 002071551455
Have a great time at the beach this weekend. I plan on finishing the last twilight book
6/19/2009 6:05:31 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Just wanted to wish you a wonderful weekend. And I stopped by your Oregon page. It is fabulous. You have done an amzing job on this site. LOVE IT!!!!
6/19/2009 2:39:56 PM - 002067758981
Have more now, he said they'd be gone by time we get home.
I e-mailed beach neighbors to see if they were going to be there, no response yet.
Called Mary Anne, she to loop by and get tomatoes and cucumbers from porch if we are gone.
6/19/2009 2:35:42 PM - 002067758981
When there is a snake involved......didn't think of camera!!
Get rid of produce?
6/19/2009 12:16:48 PM - 002025703401
But you should have grabbed the camera.....
6/19/2009 12:07:12 PM - 002067758981
YES. I had not seen it....Joe said it was a chicken snake...about two foot long(small), coiled in one of the fans, I pushed Joe out the door to get it. Thought the dogs were going out. Funny now, not funny then. Happened to have old fireplace shovel in garage, my hero finally got it............I had been coming and going all afternoon right by it..SNAKES, I do not like snakes!!
6/19/2009 3:21:44 AM - 002049843840
What's up with the snake Linda, did you have visitor this afternoon........
6/19/2009 3:17:39 AM - 001024320926
Snake, yikes!! What snake, wheres a snake??
Jamie I get jumpy too, I'll be working on surgery charts and the doctor will walk in and scare me to death, then he gets mad at me because I jumped and acted scared. Figure that out :)
6/19/2009 1:55:33 AM - 002025703401
I am jumpy.... I get involved in what I'm doing and don't hear what is going on around me. My hearing is not the greatest either... Band nerds who play saxophone, sit in front of the drums during football season.... Kimberly is going to get a BIG project tomorrow.... She could lock her desk, but the boss has a key.... :)
Ask Mom about her snake experience this evening.... She did not even get a picture!
6/19/2009 1:47:21 AM - 002067758981
Jamie was on the phone with me when Kim went into the office, it was a girly girl screech......In less than 30 seconds, Jamie had to put me on hold to answer the call from Marcia asking if she was hurt, and needed to go to the hospital........she is as jumpy as I am.....LOL
Jean, we do not have to do ferry ride to get to our house............just ride the ferry to Galveston to mess around, shop, and eat someone else's cooking......
6/19/2009 1:22:45 AM - 002049843840
I might need to huh? But I'm more worried about my Chipper bobble head doll, I might need to bring him home.....no telling what "they" (Jamie) will do to him......
6/19/2009 1:16:19 AM - 002029331419
A bit on the jumpy side eh?
Hey Jamie - So on your beach page...do you have to take your truck over on the Ferry to get where your beach house is? That's what it looks like to me - but I'm needing to ask.
You have a lot of really fun pictures from there - - and fishing too - no wonder your family enjoys it so much!
Kim...do you lock your desk - before you leave on vacations?...You might want to think about that this time! :0)
6/19/2009 1:11:52 AM - 002049843840
She is so easy to scare......I really don't know why, usually she can see my reflection in a picture over her desk....but if she is playing or clipping her finger nails its easier to scare her. Most of the time I'm not even trying too, but she doesn't believe me (sniff,sniff).
And she is trying to blame me for her high blood pressure, I think not......I think it may be the JOB!!!!
6/19/2009 1:00:50 AM - 000093706714
paybacks are a ........welll, you know!
Have fun fishing with your dad! It was one of my dad's absolute favorite things to do in life and I had the pleasure to take a final trip with him before his passing. I made an album of our trip out. Check it out if you have some free time and are trying to lower your blood pressure before getting Kim back!
6/18/2009 11:06:37 PM - 002025703401
It was more like a loud "DARN IT KIM" with darn replaced with something else...... And yes my blood pressure was high the first time they took it at the doctor's office.... Someone is going to pay......(insert evil laugh) :) :)
6/18/2009 10:28:15 PM - 001024320926
Did she scream like a girly girl??? The higher the scream the harder I laugh :) I would have to go to the doctor with you because I wouldn't be able to stop laughing :)
6/18/2009 10:12:41 PM - 002029331419
Jamie - Very cool Beach Page! What a great place to have fun times & make great memories!
And taking your Dad fishing....He's going to love it!
Not saying a word about Kim scaring you outta your chair, and you screaming....nope, not me..I'm not saying nothing.....
JK...Kim!! She's going to missss you!! :0)
6/18/2009 9:45:32 PM - 002055694880

6/18/2009 8:55:19 PM - 002049843840
Somebody is whining..........she should not have had her back to the door.....we can always tell if she is doing personnal stuff because she jumps HIGHER!!!!!.......and let me tell ya her butt was off the chair....;0) You are so gonna miss us next week!!!!!!!!!
6/18/2009 8:23:31 PM - 002025703401
Kimberly is in soooo much trouble..... I was talking to Mom on the phone facing the wall in my office. Kim snuck up behind me and grabbed my chair making me scream..... Marcia heard me down the hall! Kim is going to pay... I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon and now my blood pressure is up.....
6/18/2009 8:01:28 PM - 001024320926
WooHoo!! fishing!! I plan on sitting my butt on the beach all day on Saturday.
Ohhhhh Linda you're sweet talking about Jamie when she was a little one :) Ahhhhh Jamie cut her some slack :)
6/18/2009 7:22:00 PM - 002025703401
Weekend Update - I remembered that it is father's day this weekend. So, called my dad to ask if he wanted to go fishing this weekend. He has been moaning for months about not having time to fish. Dad is retired but too busy....
Normally, the boat is kept at the beach house, but luckily Dad had brought it home before Ike hit so we were able to save it....
During Memorial Day weekend, we looked for open boat ramps on Bolivar Peninsula. Our normal marina is still destroyed and not open.
Now, I've got to go get a fishing license....
6/18/2009 6:53:04 PM - 002067758981
Hope you have none to add from this year!!
6/18/2009 6:52:20 PM - 002025703401
I going to add the hurricanes to the Mother Nature page... That's my next project.
6/18/2009 6:51:05 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, think you need to include just a couple of pictures after Ike.
6/18/2009 6:48:17 PM - 002067758981

6/18/2009 6:47:42 PM - 002025703401

6/18/2009 6:46:41 PM - 002025703401
Starla, That was my grandmother, myself, my brother, and my uncle David. David was only 3 years older than me.
6/18/2009 6:45:31 PM - 002025703401

6/17/2009 2:41:57 AM - 002029331419
Does it make you feel better that we missed you today? ... Linda tried to keep everyone on their best behavior...but you know you can only go so far with Lisa and Kim and Starla and Cheri and....

I'm home...... Just had a 14 hour road trip, LONG day....
It was 100 degrees when we were leaving Hammond Louisana (other side of Baton Rouge) at 4. HOT!!!
Kim tried to have me left in Louisiana for $3.86, Billy had me text her back that she was a dollar short and too late, we were already on the road back to Texas....
6/16/2009 11:33:45 PM - 002067758981

Good morning Jamie, Wow, you already received my postcard? That is quick. I am sure that when you visit NYC you will enjoy your stay. And I do love magnets. LOL, I guess you saw my collection on my fridge. I buy magnets as souvenirs when I travel. Love them. And now I am starting to collect shot glasses even though I am not a drinker. Have a great day and many thanks for always coming by to visit.
6/16/2009 2:02:56 PM - 001024320926

6/16/2009 3:38:00 AM - 002029331419
Hey!! Now That's Not True!!... I was working on my camping site and turned the whole thing off! I was wondering if it would let ME back in! LOL!! I fixed it!!
6/16/2009 3:23:17 AM - 002025703401
Jean doesn't like me anymore... Her site won't let me in..... Tears... Whining..... :(
6/16/2009 2:27:18 AM - 002029331419
Arent the old pictures so fun to look at!? Hair, clothes, poses, ....it's so fun!

6/15/2009 9:46:44 PM - 002067758981
63 days!!!
6/15/2009 7:17:32 PM - 002067758981
Glad today is better for you, Lisa.
6/15/2009 7:16:37 PM - 002067758981
Jamie forgot to mention that the salsa idea was her's.......lol
6/15/2009 6:48:52 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, things are better today, last night was just a test of my patience :) I'm happy to be out site hopping today :)
So what's new? what'd I miss? what's going on?
Sounds like your mom aka old woman :) worked ya'll yesterday :) That sounds sooooo like something my Mom would do, in fact ask Starla I think they had her working in the garden this weekend too :)
Headed to Galveston this weekend, woohoo!!
6/15/2009 1:20:42 PM - 002067758981
Joanne, the old photos do bring back many good memories, some of our family is no longer with us and its a pleasure to look at pictures and remember.
Jamie, I can hardly wait to see the pictures from yesterday.
6/15/2009 1:17:33 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Thanks for your comment on my rose photos. Glad you liked the ones with the water drops. I love all the old family photos from years gone by. I bet they bring many wonderful memories too. Have a great day Jamie.
6/15/2009 12:02:21 PM - 002067758981
Hey Jamie, great job yesterday.....all nineteen pints sealed and I'm happy to be done with that job........everyone in family had a hand in making it and I could not have done it alone and lived....LOL
6/15/2009 2:41:49 AM - 002025703401
I am older than my brother by 15 months. He lives next door to my parents, in our grandparents old farm house. I live about 10 minutes away, too much togetherness....
He told me a couple of weeks ago that he needed a computer. So, I picked out the one he should get in the Best Buy ad and told him what kind of router to get from his cable company.
I may not be able to update with this weekends pictures until later in the week... I'm thinking about going to bed early tonight...
6/15/2009 2:31:44 AM - 002029331419
LOL!!!! - Bowl and chips! That's just because they know what finely tuned taste buds you have and if you say good...that means GREAT!! Years back when we used to take my Fath-in-law out to dinner and we'd go to a buffet...he'd follow me around to everything I got - His plate looked just like mine , when we'd order off a menu...he'd say he was having what I was ordering too...it was hysterical! He said - 'Yours always looks the best!' LOL
Is he older or younger then you? And did you set him up with the lap top? I'll have to check out your garden pages and go through the ball for Sadie...with all of the rain this afternoon...she's feeling a bit neglected for exercise...Be back later!! :0)
6/15/2009 2:17:10 AM - 002025703401
Let me just say, "That old woman wore me out today"!
Worked on my rose bed til about 11 this morning, until I was too hot. Hurricane Ike really did a number on them.
Cleaned up, ran to Wally World for ziplock bags for Mom. While there, I picked up Father's Day gift and a birthday gift for Dad. He gets two gifts in June....
Got to Mom's about 1:30 and got started on the Salsa. See Kitchen Page for that saga...
We grilled chicken breast and had chicken burgers for dinner. Have alot of new bird, squirrel, butterfly, lizard, and flower pictures.
I have my Mom's joints and they are about to explode (not to mention I tried to break both ankles last year).... Main reason I'm on a diet. Thank goodness I have a desk job... :)
Watch out - My brother, Bubba :), has a new laptop and the address to this site...
Lisa - Why is your son wearing on your last nerve?
Jean - I worked on the salsa.... I was incharge of stiring the pot and maybe being the "taste tester"... The minute I said, "Hey this is pretty good". I was shoved out of the way. Mom and Bubba were there with bowls and chips! :0)
6/15/2009 1:48:53 AM - 002055694880
Ok Lisa...you booted me off...I am going to text you now and find out what he is doing...Tell him he really doesn't want me to come down THERE! I will !!!! :)
6/15/2009 1:47:24 AM - 001024320926
Jamie, I knew your pictures woudl look great in a photobook!! So great!! Have you posted it to the Gallery? I hope you do.
I can't stay tonight, my son is wearing my last nerve, I can't even think. Hopefully back later.
Lisa
6/15/2009 1:07:15 AM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, How was your working weekend? I hope you are well. I love all the photos you have shared with me and I send a big THANK YOU. Just wanted to let you know, I have new photos from the Rose Exhibit @ the Botanical garden. Feel free to drop by my Gallery site. they are located on the Recent Photo Page. Let me know what you think. It was raining, Mother Nature did not want to be my friend yesterday. Have a great evening and take care. I visit again tomorrow and see what's new on the site. And of course make my usual visits to the Garden page.
6/14/2009 9:07:03 PM - 002029331419
Jamie you said you were helping out at your folks' place today - did you go just as taste tester....or have you helped make the salsa too? :0)
AND I didn't come to your site at the wee early hours of the morning to get bored and to go back to sleep....this way I can check things out and post ....and no worries of getting bumped! LOL!
6/14/2009 8:43:15 PM - 002067758981
Cheri, let DH wait on you, I had knee replacement in October last year, Jamie, my son and my husband all took turns until I was mobile....You may have to get a bath chair and hand held shower head, that is what I used.....just makes you feel better. Hope things go well for you.
6/14/2009 3:00:29 PM - 000093706714
Hey Jamie....viewed the recipe page today. The salsa sounds wonderful and I am officially volunteering as a candidate to Linda to fulfill her 'food pushing' need! JK.....determined not to let eating become one of my 'hobbies' during my rehabilitation! hehehehehe
I am moving around today and really feeling pretty good. Although, I wouldn't want anyone to come too close.....gotta find a way to master the bathing issue! I know, I know....TMI...but ya know, we all like to SHARE! hehehehehe
Dr. said to plan for 12 weeks....I am not sure if I will be in the cast for the entire time but my DH has really gone all out to try and make me comfortable and get me more mobile. He bought me a walker and a wheelchair and converted our balcony off of our bedroom into an outdoor living room. As soon as I am off the beds and can stay up for longer periods of time, I am going to start working with my camera and some overdue photo albums to keep me occupied. And of course, keep up with my SF pals!
Thanks so much for your good wishes and visits. You gals have become a delightful part of my day and I always look forward to hearing from everyone.
Hugs
Cheri
6/14/2009 1:53:14 PM - 002025703401
Joanne - Thanks, I have fixed the comment problem.:)
Jean - So, you go to my site when you can't sleep.... My stuff will put you right back to sleep. ;) The photobook is the first one I've ever made. Made it for Mom and Kay for Christmas. Hope to make more in the future.... I want to make a family one, but want to scan a bunch of old pictures first. Same with some of my pages on this site. Making pages for my digital pictures, then I going to get back on my scanning project... I think this have turned into my hobby....
6/14/2009 12:53:30 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, How are you today? How is your weekend going? I went to view your latest photos Jamie's favorites. You are an amazing photographer. Just Beautiful. I was unable to comment on the pictures. It said I didn't have permission. So I did want to let you know the photos are wonderful. I'll be viewing them again....I really liked them. have a great Sunday.
6/14/2009 9:41:58 AM - 002029331419
Jamie - Is Pugent Sound your first Photobook? .. It's really nice!! I got to enjoy it at 3:30 am this morning! Why am I up? I really don't know! Just am - But will go back in about 10 min or so. Just bumming around sites to make my eyes sleepy again... I hope!
I liked that you used that 'stamp' border around some of your pics...I've wondered what it would have looked like - looks pretty cool!
6/14/2009 4:13:09 AM - 002025703401
Gotta keep employee moral up..... :)
6/14/2009 4:05:04 AM - 002029331419
Wow...imagine that.... You guys at work, no one else there..waiting on a job to finish - and got Kim's vacation plans finished! Well done my friend! Well done!! ;-)

6/14/2009 3:49:57 AM - 002029331419
Well sure you were Jamie! Sure you were!! 'We were waiting...." I use that one too! ;0)
6/14/2009 3:40:44 AM - 002025703401
We were waiting for a job stack to finish printing.... had to kill time somehow..... :)
6/14/2009 3:38:53 AM - 002029331419

6/13/2009 7:14:59 PM - 002067758981
Dixie and I are needing a nap real bad.
6/13/2009 7:01:27 PM - 002029331419
I'm glad you moved your Travelmates pictures down ... I can see them better! :0)
6/13/2009 4:10:55 AM - 002055694880
Jamie Regan has better tan lines than I do!!! That little girl tans so easy and rarely gets red first. K'Lee will burn she is so white....making her stay outside a ton. Sunscreen packed...clean drawrs packed and of course camera....can we leave yet?
6/13/2009 4:03:38 AM - 001023411097
Hey Jamie, I love visiting your site. You make us all feel so welcome and I love traveling with you on your travel pages. We leave for Alaska on the 25th of this month. I can't wait. This will be our second cruise to Alaska. We have 26 people going. This is a fund rasier for the Moms of Fallen Soldiers. Have a great weekend. bj
6/13/2009 3:49:56 AM - 002055694880
Hey Jamie. Yeah the uploading of the camping photos is done now...thank goodness I would have had to hurt someone if it did not finally do it after all that stuff I did to fix it. I am slowly getting around to adding all that I want to all my pages. I am lagging behind. and I don't like it. When I was at the school in the mornings I could add to my page and make rounds. I am going to make it a point to get up before the girls and do my rounds. I sure miss everyone. I am gonna get it tho. Thanks for checking on me. Still waiting for Galveston. Got my hotel reservations back and I cannot wait!!!
6/13/2009 3:43:39 AM - 002029331419
Your supposed to be on Kim or Marcia's Page!
6/13/2009 3:42:31 AM - 002029331419
You just bumped my big ol long gushy note to you and Lisa!!!
6/13/2009 3:41:58 AM - 002025703401
I hate to tell you this, but you are now part of an old lady club.....
6/13/2009 3:30:39 AM - 001024320926
I love those certificates :) I'm part of a club, haven't done that since high school :)
Jean your fridge is great and you're right ours is monster :) I had no idea until we got it in the house and I'm thinking ahummmmm this thing is a little bigger I thought you measured. He just shrugged and said well it fits, so there you have it. Nothing is getting around that fridge on the sides or the top, it's that close. Sure does look big when it's open too.
Jamie I brought work home again this weekend, soooo much to do before Canada :) and you're right being busy is a good thing, especially if you're going on vacation :)
6/13/2009 3:24:25 AM - 002025703401
Jean - I'm soooo proud..... :)
6/13/2009 3:13:30 AM - 002029331419
Jamie...did you see my fridge picture on Lisa's site?......It shows that my TFC certificate is displayed where I see it daily...unless I'm camping or traveling that is! he he
6/13/2009 3:07:11 AM - 002025703401
Yeah, I've got to go into the office tomorrow. Got alot of projects to finish before Alaska... That's a good thing.... :)

Love the quote, Lisa.....lol
6/12/2009 8:58:12 PM - 001076975951

A funny quote for ya Jamie:
You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on. ~Dean Martin
6/12/2009 7:25:31 PM - 002025703401
I have a blueberry hangover today...... Hiding in my office with the door closed.....
6/12/2009 7:18:44 PM - 002071551455
Jamie you should be ashamed of yourself. You can never be too busy for your MOTHER!
Actually Linda I think you may be ahead having her at work the way she was eating those berries yesterday, I am surprised there are any left to put away.
6/12/2009 7:06:43 PM - 002025703401
The Jamie is busy....... :) I've got to work.....
6/12/2009 6:39:12 PM - 001024320926
She told me she has one it's called ............the Jamie :)
6/12/2009 6:37:59 PM - 002025703401
Maybe she needs to buy a pea sheller.....
6/12/2009 6:37:26 PM - 001024320926
Jamie your mom is turning blue!!!!!
6/12/2009 5:46:14 PM - 002067758981
Help, I'm turning BLUE!!!!
6/12/2009 5:37:45 PM - 002067758981
Melena called from hospital, lady wanted a bushel for pickles!!!! Just so happened we had cukes!!
6/12/2009 4:59:12 PM - 002029331419
Jamie!!!! Whaaa??? Ever do you mean!! Moi????
Linda...Good job on those peas and cuckes!! And I agree...Lisa..Green angry clouds...don't even try and get a picture! ;0)
6/12/2009 4:27:11 PM - 002025703401
What "sucker" took 2 buckets full?
6/12/2009 4:05:51 PM - 002067758981
Yeah, I'm here now.....been 'busy', got peas shelled and washed, got rid of cucumbers (2 5 gallon buckets full) now have to work on zucchini's. Jean, Lisa aand Jamie....I can worry enough for all of you................Lisa, just please don't chase green angry clouds!!!
6/12/2009 3:58:40 PM - 002025703401
I'm not touching that one. You guys are trying to get me in trouble.....
I can do that all by myself! :)
6/12/2009 3:40:29 PM - 002029331419
He He... That's all Linda needs... is more girls to worry about! :0) Linda...can we be your Cyber Girls all over the country? You can cyber worry at what were up to! LOL!!! Jamie...can you 'splain that to her? :0)
Yeah...the pigs...not to attached to them - The calves, horses, dogs yes! My dad was buddies with a Vet - Which he wanted to be - and so he would go to the Sale/Autions and brings back...oh my gosh...can't even begin with the string of 'Poor Lil' Things' that we Doctored up and then kept!!
Marcia - Love the 'Sir Loin"...that's pretty funny!
6/12/2009 3:20:14 PM - 002025703401
Good you can take a little heat off me....... Mom can get on your case instead! (Love Ya Momma) :)
6/12/2009 3:12:38 PM - 001024320926
Marcia we did that too, at my Dads insistance!! My favorite was a little pretty calf named T-bone :) and he did end up in the freezer. Now the hogs I never had a problem with whent hey were sent to the butcher.
Jamie, are you jealous your mom is worried for me???.....I love it!!
I love the calf picture too, your were soooooo cute :)
6/12/2009 2:16:20 PM - 002071551455
We always named our anmals that were going to go on the supper table something to remind us so we wouldn't get too attached. We had a pig named "Pork Chop' and a calf named "Sir Loin" It helped since I turn all our animals into pets. Actually they don't know their not people.
6/12/2009 3:15:25 AM - 002025703401
Yeah, I'm very tender hearted about the animals... They ended up sold or on the table. Probably why I really don't want anything to do with the farm animals now.... Other than the little dogs.
6/12/2009 3:06:51 AM - 002029331419
Jamie...I had a white faced calf about that size and I named her Maybelle....she was the coolest calf! My buddy all summer! Almost broke my heart when we took her to the Sale...and then when I saw the check she brought, and my dad handed it to me...my frown turned to a :0) !
6/12/2009 1:51:42 AM - 002025703401
And I was about 9 or 10.....
6/12/2009 1:50:01 AM - 002029331419
Awww Jamie...were you giving a calf a big hug? ;0)
6/11/2009 10:22:07 PM - 002025703401
MOMMMMM........
6/11/2009 10:11:01 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, I have always loved that picture of you with that baby calf!!!! Cutie!!!
6/11/2009 9:46:36 PM - 002067758981
Especially if she's stalking tornado's!!! Trying to get them to smile for her camera...think of gbaby......she needs you and who would make me lol.
6/11/2009 9:32:15 PM - 002025703401
Now Mom is worried about Lisa driving to work.....
6/11/2009 6:40:06 PM - 001024320926
No worries Linda I drove faster to get away from the thing, but it was pretty scary.
6/11/2009 6:21:01 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, ya'll have tornado's where you live? I heard of suffering for your art but let's not play with Mother Nature......And I'm all for someone else clearing the path......makes life easier. LOL
6/11/2009 4:55:18 PM - 001024320926
I see nothing wrong with sending someone to clear the path :) :)
LOL!!!!! It's art!!! I was driving to work this morning on the phone with Starla when I drive up on a cloud that looks like something out of Independence Day!! I could have put my window down and touched the thing, it was green and scary as hell!!!! I was pretty nervous and so were the other people on the road, we're all looking around.............when I think just a for a second,............about getting my camera out and snapping a few off of the soon to be tornado that was poised to drop right on top my car :) It's art baby, art :)
6/11/2009 4:17:45 PM - 002025703401
I'm way too NICE on those "girls"...... :)
6/11/2009 3:48:42 PM - 002029331419
Does that bite itch now? do ya want to scratch it? ... how about now?
Game Warden says no way...then everyone down there would want one...and there wouldn't be as many Texans coming up here to get away from the heat and bugs and spending their hard earned Travel money! :0)
Jamie...your way to hard on those girls down there! ;0)
6/11/2009 3:42:58 PM - 002071887921
for this trip i will definitely be behind kim the WHOLE time.....let her clear the path of "lizards" for me:)
6/11/2009 3:37:21 PM - 002049843840
At least it wasn't chasing me............I was just the video taker
6/11/2009 3:31:41 PM - 002025703401
Hey it's art!!! Darla needs to be a good sport.....
6/11/2009 3:19:59 PM - 002071551455
That says alot about Jamie, She will sit there and let a skeeter bite and all she can think of is getting the camera out. She was trying to get Kim to get a video of a wierd lizard they have in the Grand Canyon if it chased Darla. No sympathy for Darla just get a good video of Darla running off the cliff. She really loves us all here at the dealership.
6/11/2009 3:10:27 PM - 002029331419
You sat there and watched it suck your blood?!?! Does it itch? How about now? ok, how about now?
My bites swell up like there is a marble underneath!! :0(
6/11/2009 2:28:33 PM - 002025703401
Hey that was my leg.... Should have seen the blood after I mushed it!!!!
6/11/2009 1:52:11 PM - 002029331419
What NO Shoes?!?! ...Country Skeeter...yeah....ha ha !! Jamie did you sacrifice your arm with a mosquito bite to get a picture!!! :0O You IS a brave woman living dangerous! ...and funny too! But now you have a bite that will start to itch everytime you are writing a post..Now don't scratch that bite!! Stop it ...don't scratch!! Does it itch...a Lot...like ya just want to scratch it some more!?!? he he!!
6/11/2009 1:22:47 PM - 001024320926
PS: Love the fridge pictures!!! Tooo fun :)
6/11/2009 1:22:20 PM - 001024320926
Oh he was a baby skeeter :) Who's arm and who's taking picture :) Did you ultimately smack the little sucker? Love the frog picture too :)

I teach a shutterfly class every Friday afternoon from 3 to 5. Ask Kim...
6/11/2009 3:04:16 AM - 002049843840
you have to download onto shutterfly, then attached it......go to my shutterfly at the top....then to pictures, upload from there
6/11/2009 3:00:45 AM - 002052348797
So how do I attach a picture to my name? Help me help me help me
6/11/2009 2:59:07 AM - 002052348797
I have better ones, just have them in my camera and haven't loaded them yet.
6/11/2009 2:58:40 AM - 002049843840
Your pic of Carly is so cute!!!
6/11/2009 2:58:25 AM - 002052348797
How do I do that? Been trying
6/11/2009 2:57:59 AM - 002025703401
Now you have to add a picture to shutterfly too! Lose the duck.... :)
6/11/2009 2:56:27 AM - 002052348797
Carly is in your guest book now
6/11/2009 2:47:44 AM - 002052348797
ok, I'll find a cute picture of Carly
6/11/2009 2:46:46 AM - 002025703401
Sites lockup sometimes... But, I can fix!
6/11/2009 2:46:23 AM - 002052348797
oops, looks like I was a little impatient...haha
6/11/2009 2:44:37 AM - 002052348797
you need to talk to marcia about putting obscene photos of squirrels on her site
6/11/2009 2:43:32 AM - 002025703401
Put Carly on!
6/11/2009 2:42:45 AM - 002052348797
that's funny... I was just looking at her site and she has a picture of a squirrl on there that looks like he's taking a poopie....lol
6/11/2009 2:40:29 AM - 002025703401
On my guestbook. Look up.
6/11/2009 2:39:01 AM - 002052348797
where is it?
6/11/2009 2:38:31 AM - 002025703401
I have a special picture for you..... Look at Marcia, she's a squirrel....
6/11/2009 2:37:56 AM - 002025703401
They have worked there too long, too much vacation time....
6/11/2009 2:37:31 AM - 002052348797
What's the deal, you let Kim and Darla go on vacation every month? First Ohio, then Washington State.
6/11/2009 2:35:39 AM - 002052348797
I'll have to do that. I was going to attach a picture to my name and I couldn't find one, you know how I dodge cameras, but I have a ton of Carly pictures, I should just put her's there.
6/11/2009 2:27:32 AM - 002025703401
You need to build a site now, it's free.... We could see pictures of your grandbaby.... :)
6/11/2009 2:26:08 AM - 002025703401
Stress relief....
6/11/2009 2:25:49 AM - 002052348797
I'm looking at Kim's now, then I'll check out Marcia's. All I can say is who works around there? Ya'll must have too much time on your hands...hehe
6/11/2009 2:24:10 AM - 002025703401
Have to make a living...
Go check out Kim's and Marcia's....
6/11/2009 2:23:41 AM - 002052348797
you missed your calling, you should have been a photographer
6/11/2009 2:23:19 AM - 002052348797
All kidding aside, I LOVE your site
6/11/2009 2:23:03 AM - 002025703401
Yup
6/11/2009 2:22:51 AM - 002052348797
You know I love to mess with you, I can't help myself
6/11/2009 2:22:32 AM - 002025703401
Now who is back peddling???
6/11/2009 2:22:05 AM - 002052348797
ut oh
6/11/2009 2:21:34 AM - 002025703401
Oh no, I saved the good ones..... Ask Marcia. I showed them to her....
6/11/2009 2:20:59 AM - 002052348797
lol...looks like you already posted them
6/11/2009 2:20:41 AM - 002025703401
I have blackmail photos....
6/11/2009 2:20:15 AM - 002052348797
I'm gonna have to check yours out Kim
6/11/2009 2:19:59 AM - 002052348797
You know we love you Jam
6/11/2009 2:19:22 AM - 002025703401
I will remember this Missy!!! :)
6/11/2009 2:18:56 AM - 002052348797
I think it should be a national holiday, Jump on Jamie day. You know you love it.
6/11/2009 2:18:26 AM - 002025703401
And send us your personal email address......
6/11/2009 2:17:59 AM - 002049843840
Dianne, I have a webpage now, see Jamie's fans of photography list, it's Kim's Big Adventures!
6/11/2009 2:17:07 AM - 002025703401
Hey, what is this? Jump on Jamie????
6/11/2009 2:16:26 AM - 002049843840
Hey, Dianne glad to see you join in on the Jamie travel issue. It is true, she is a good trip planner...... No we are not driving to Las Vegas, we are flying then renting a car..... Yes I know how hot it is. I need Jamie's expertise on a schedule, so we don't miss anything.
6/11/2009 2:05:50 AM - 002052348797
oh look, i'm a cute little ducky
6/11/2009 2:05:28 AM - 002052348797
Did I hear Jamie right? Did she say she was a LITTLE anal about travel and planning? LOL But I have to say she can plan a mean trip and if you take her advice you don't have to buy an atlas or read those hundreds of brochures you pick up everywhere you go. You know someone should print one of those things on our skeeters.
6/11/2009 1:54:25 AM - 002025703401
We have mockingbirds but the skeeters out number them 1000 to 1, at least!
6/11/2009 12:32:10 AM - 002029331419
Kim!! Are you guys Driving to Las Vegas??? You know it's summer there too...right???
6/11/2009 12:31:14 AM - 002029331419
Ahem!!!! Roadrunner (NM real State Bird) eats small birds, lizards and big bugs!! Why don't we make a deal and sale you a pair?....your 'skeeter' problem would be taken care of in NO time!
6/10/2009 11:34:56 PM - 001024320926
Hilarious!! Here's the best part.........I would follow it to a T!! That's how I operate :) I'm also fast, fast learner, fast on comprehension and I usually don;t waste time once I'm set in motion. That can be a bad thing. I have to tell myself to stop, slow down. I get hyper and as a result I get tire faster than everyone else, bummer.
6/10/2009 11:07:23 PM - 002025703401
Kim really can't get in trouble because everything she said is true...... I'm a little anal about travel....
6/10/2009 10:16:47 PM - 002049843840
Oh..... and where to eat, shop and even potty breaks ..... I'm gonna get in trouble for that one...LOL
6/10/2009 10:15:32 PM - 002049843840
Lisa, that was a sarcastic "Kimberly......", believe me I've heard it plenty of times.
Careful what you ask for, because Jamie could have you an itinerary by 10pm tonight, who I'm I kidding she probably already knows what she would have on her list for you to do.....
6/10/2009 10:08:04 PM - 001024320926
Jamie, I leave for Canada on a minimal budget I need an itinerary for an awesome 4 day vacation. I'll need that in email, text and smoke signal by 1:00p tomorrow, is a that a problem :) When you answered Kim with a "Kimberly........" was that a whining Kimberly or a sarcastic Kimberly?
That's right the Skeeter is the Texas bird :) Jean will love that. Heck they're the same size as hummingbirds :)
6/10/2009 9:44:49 PM - 002049843840
Can we make an appointment with you Jamie??????
6/10/2009 9:44:04 PM - 002049843840
Looks like we need to make sure our rental car has a tracking device on it.......since we could get lost in the hot hot desert :(........that way someone will be able to find us :(...............
6/10/2009 9:09:51 PM - 002029331419
........and you haven't been by all afternoon....
6/10/2009 9:08:32 PM - 002029331419
Jamie..we've been on Linda's page....sorry!
6/10/2009 8:56:24 PM - 002049843840
what kinda response is that......
6/10/2009 8:43:18 PM - 002025703401
Kimberly......
6/10/2009 8:35:22 PM - 002071551455
Hey has anyone mentioned that the skeeter is the Texas State Bird.
6/10/2009 8:30:19 PM - 002049843840
I know your feelings are hurt because nobody is leaving you messages........so here's one.......when are you going to help me finish my vacation itinerary ;0).......you know darla and i need your help or we might get lost in the desert :( .....and i know you wouldn't want that, would you.......so do i need to leave a message for your mammmmmmaaaa!!!!!!!!!
6/10/2009 5:04:02 PM - 001024320926
Linda what time was the toad event because I do think I heard a sharp squeal!!! Hilarious!!
6/10/2009 3:45:36 PM - 002067758981
No, that's ok, she's younger and sweeter. BETTER BAIT.
6/10/2009 3:20:47 PM - 002025703401
We were planning on using Darla, but if you are volunteering.....
6/10/2009 3:05:07 PM - 002067758981
No, I did not get picture of me running into the house...listen on that skeeter shoot, I could be used as bait. If you could see my legs, it looks like I have already been used as bait...Dang, they will eat you alive.
6/10/2009 2:55:53 PM - 002029331419
Linda... That was you!?! I thought so...but wasn't quite sure! :0)
Skeeter Photo shoot.....Boy oh Boy...this is going to be GREAT!!!
6/10/2009 2:24:44 PM - 002025703401
Update: The office has been planning a skeeter photo shoot (and maybe working) for the last hour....
6/10/2009 1:59:28 PM - 002025703401
Did you get a picture of it????
6/10/2009 1:57:06 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, thought I'd share a story that happened yesterday afternoon as I was watering my pot plants. Noticed a whole in one of my begonia's that I had potted and one of the plants hanging.......touched the dirt around the plant and a rusty toad jumped out of the hole!!! Yes, if you were listening, you could have heard me squeal. lol
6/10/2009 1:10:30 PM - 002055694880
Well the skeeter really are big so it won't be that hard. Can't wait to see what you get. Hope it is not on someones arm when you take it.
6/10/2009 11:45:15 AM - 001024320926
LOL!! Headed to surgery this morn but I should be back sround 10:00a or earlier :)
6/10/2009 11:11:52 AM - 002025703401
Kim, we have a new Mother Nature page photo assignment....., picture of the skeeters wearing shoes. :)
I also took care of my other assignment, sent Happy Birthday text to Elaine at 6am.... Elaine is in Phoenix and 2 hours behind us..... Darla told me to do it! :)
6/10/2009 4:32:38 AM - 001024320926
Jean has challenged me to get a picture of the skeeters wearing shoes :) I'll get one my pretty, don't you worry :)
6/10/2009 1:17:59 AM - 000093706714
Jamie......the meds worked SO GOOD today. The weather was gorgeous and my spirits were truly lifted! I have accepted my 'bad break' (hehehehehe) and accepted that the trip to San Diego is going to have to be postponed. It wouldn't be as fun (nor a good use of our funds) to go in this condition. Sooo......I will be looking for some inspiration from all my SF pals on activities to do while hopping around in Michigan!!!
Getting excited for your trip tho.......(stay away from the ball fields; they are dangerous! hehehehe)
I will probably not be around too much until after the surgery. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers...feeling a little nervous. Never broke a bone before. eeks!
Hugs
Cheri
6/9/2009 11:14:35 PM - 002067758981
Jean, your low humidity sound like heaven right now, but it gets worse. Having trouble keeping everything watered now. NM is the PLACE to be.
6/9/2009 11:10:08 PM - 002025703401
Jean thinks we are telling tall Texas tales, but Jean we have alot of water.... Alot of water means alot of skeeters, REALLY BIG SKEETERS! Blood suckers!!!
6/9/2009 11:07:17 PM - 002029331419
Holy Smokes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jamie...I just heard !! you have BTO on your playlist!!! You know they DO NOT...I Repeat DO NOT fall under the Country catagory!?! :0)
Hmmm Skeeters....low humidity...skeeters...low humidity - - I HATE Skeeters!! Shoes or no shoes! ;0) And I liiiike shoes!
6/9/2009 10:48:41 PM - 002055694880
I'm really back this time....I think! :) I called the internet man this morning and all is fine now. No fireworks necessary...Thank goodness cause I have a whole truck load to set off if I wanted! Skeeters Skeeter Skeeters they are the most annoying thing ever!
6/9/2009 10:40:40 PM - 001024320926
Linda I told Jean our skeeters are so big that they wear shoes, she is doubting it. I promise I have seen some carrying bags :)
6/9/2009 9:27:00 PM - 002067758981
Jean, we have enough skeeters that we can send some your way!! Very bad
6/9/2009 9:26:02 PM - 002067758981
Yes Jamie, its still way too early to get suitcases out. Lets wait til night before and then throw everything in.................Live dangerous, NO LISTS!!!!
6/9/2009 9:23:59 PM - 002067758981
Sloane, hope you had a great trip!!! Love ya!!!!
6/9/2009 8:23:28 PM - 002029331419
It changed Jamie and Linda....your in the 6's now...69 day's till you head North! - to Alaska -Going north - the rush is on! - and they love to see the tourist with gold nuggets in their pockets!
I love Alaska....
6/9/2009 8:16:26 PM - 002049843840
Yes, it is way to early to get suitcases out. We leave to less than two weeks and I haven't even thought about that!
6/9/2009 7:17:30 PM - 002025703401
Is it too early to get the suitcases out???
Did you see Sloane has been on the guestbook?
6/9/2009 7:12:21 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, my new shirts you ordered arrived today!! We can go to Alaska now!!!!!!!
6/9/2009 7:05:00 PM - 002029331419
Skeeters don't show up here until the rains start coming. I hate that mosquito buzzing noise!! I'll take fingernails on a chalk board instead of that buzzing sound. I did hear the crickets last night when I went on Moon Duty to see if it was up - more like where was it!. I bet when we go camping next weekend...yeah..then I'll come home with a few bites...dratsss!!
6/9/2009 6:47:08 PM - 001024320926
Darla, I don't know you buuuuuutttttt stop scratching!! LOL!! Skeeter and ant bites are just the pits!!
The skeeters out by the coast are huge!! You smack one on your arm and blood goes everywhere!! You look at your hand and think you've cut your hand open. I'm surprised we don't all look like swiss cheese the next day :)
6/9/2009 6:41:03 PM - 002071887921
i resemble that remark!!!!!
6/9/2009 6:17:19 PM - 002025703401
Darla must be REALLY sweet, because bugs seems to eat her up....
I'm always having to make her stop scratching the bug bites, you would think she's ten......
What are the odds of us all having cloud cover?
6/9/2009 4:35:53 PM - 001024320926
I heard that the skeeters that you hear are the males and they don't bite...........it's the silent females that bite :) :)
6/9/2009 4:29:54 PM - 001024320926
We use to catch fireflies smash them and watch our fingers glow...............hey I was like 6 :) Now I can appreciate their beauty without smashing them :) :)
Jean the word on the street is that Jamie thinks we're pretty great :)
Skeeters hunt you down cuz you're sweet :) That's what I always told my kids :)
6/9/2009 3:56:03 PM - 002029331419
It was to cloudy here too! In fact the clouds have still hung around all morning - -I'm turning on the fan and blowing them your way Jamie! READY?!! :0)
FireFlys?! I love Fireflys...I saw my first ones last year in Tennessee!! They are really neat little guys!!
Secrets?!?! Jamie and Joanne are Telling Secrets!!!
Darla...OUCH!! There might only be one mosquito in a mile area..if I'm out..he'll hunt me down! grrr
6/9/2009 3:14:52 PM - 002071551455
I tried to get the moon last night but it was too cloudy. The fireflys were out but they are extremely hard to catch with a camera.
6/9/2009 2:15:34 PM - 001076975951
Now let me start again.....I wanted to tell you that your secret is same with me. Shhh I won't tell Lisa & Jean how much you enjoy the Shutterfly community. So don't say it out loud. I also wanted to say that every time I visit here I always visit your Mother nature page and In The Garden...It is FABULOUS and I love it.
By the way the New England cruise sounds wonderful and that is one that I'd like to do at some point. What ship are you thinking of sailing on? Anyway, have a great day and I'll be by real soon.
6/9/2009 2:10:55 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, You just bumped me off.
6/9/2009 2:10:31 PM - 002025703401
Darla, Darla, Darla - What else can I say.....
6/9/2009 1:41:45 PM - 002071887921
tried to get moon pics last night.....omg....who knew mosquitoes could see in the dark!!!!!
6/9/2009 10:56:55 AM - 002025703401
Never seen one like that, but it has gotten farely good reviews......
6/9/2009 4:37:37 AM - 002049843840
what about the picture scanner that was on a second ago?
6/9/2009 4:28:30 AM - 002025703401
The problem is it doesn't take the same memory card as ours..... That's a no vote from me.
6/9/2009 4:01:13 AM - 002049843840
TSV is a olympus camera!! check it out
6/9/2009 3:10:33 AM - 001024320926
Jamie I went to Cheri's, thanks for the heads up, that's terrible!! I'm headed outside to see what I can get tonight. It's moon or bust!! :) :)
6/9/2009 2:06:47 AM - 002025703401
Saw on Cheri's website that she broke her leg in two places playing softball over the weekend. Ouch!!!
6/9/2009 12:30:00 AM - 001076975951
Jamie, How are thing going? I love the new page: Linda's Kitchen.... Great addition to your site. Do you have your luggage out and ready to pack? I always make lists and lists of what to do, what to pack, etc. Haven't seen you on CC do you still visit? Have a great evening and see you tomorrow.
6/8/2009 11:49:20 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, do not stay up all night gazing at the moon...you need to rest. The pictures from last night are great!!! Jean, wish we had 18% humidity!!!

Ok Girlies...I'm going to take another shot...(get it?) at getting a good shot at the moon tonight! And if all else fails...I'll get a few more sunset pictures! Clouds...why do we have all of these clouds? They 18% humidity is fine...but all of these clouds!
And I'm going to attach my camera with the rubber bands again..and show you guys!
6/8/2009 10:10:10 PM - 002055694880
Great shots. I took a few while we were out and about maybe I can crop the crap out of them and something good can happen. Gotta go cook supper now......I think I am going to stay up late and do all my stuff that I WANT to do rather than HAVE to do!!
6/8/2009 10:01:20 PM - 002055694880
Jamie...I just got a chance to sit in front of my computer and not for long....Now I have to cook supper. I got home and was ready to plop down here and Jason called and the pigs were out of feed. So I had to load the kids and....well you get it. I have not even uploaded my camping pics yet. I have been unpacking and cleaning and blah blah blah bunch of stuff I don't want to do!! I'm going to check out your moon pics.....BRB
6/8/2009 9:46:51 PM - 002025703401
Yeah, Mom got caught with a sewing kit on the trip HOME. Houston missed it........
6/8/2009 9:44:46 PM - 001024320926
When I went to San Diego I carried my Tamrac backpack for the camera on the plane to and from there. Right before the flight back I was looking for something going thru my bag and found a giant pair of scissors I had put in there a while back while cutting stuff in the garden :) I carried those scissors on both planes and no one said a word to me.......scary.
6/8/2009 9:22:41 PM - 001024320926
LOL!! A doc I use to work for was in the airpirt in Russia with his wife, she says here hold this bag I have to go to the restroom. They stopped him and emptied her bag on a big table, where they proceeded to make him explain everything in it. That's when they came upon a tampon...............they unraveled it, smelled it, played with it and got really upset at him because he couldn't make them understand what it was. He finally did explain it and they let him go, he almost missed his plane and he was furious at is wife when he came upon her sitting in her seat wondering where he was :) :) :)
6/8/2009 9:14:56 PM - 002025703401
I am going to save some of those rubber bands and put them in my camera case.
Do you think I will get stopped when they go through airport security??? LOL! Try explaining that one to security.... :)
6/8/2009 8:57:43 PM - 000074469281
Wow, there's a lot I need to learn about my camera and other ones. Thanks Jamie for adding your WHOLE moon album. Incredible. Thank you. Oh, I added my 'moon' pictures if thats what you want to call them. They are in the recent pics to the right under the June 5, 6, 7, 8th photos. Not even close to yours!!
6/8/2009 8:31:35 PM - 002025703401
I know! All that diet food and I wasted the best part - the rubber band.... LOL!!!!
6/8/2009 8:26:55 PM - 002067758981
With all the asparagus you've eaten, you could have rigged a bunch of camera's!!!
6/8/2009 8:20:52 PM - 001024320926
Sister that's how it works for most of us :) Thats what makes it fun :) all the guessing and then we get it right!!!
6/8/2009 8:17:21 PM - 002025703401
Those are very nice rubber bands!!! LOL!!!!!
Note to self, start keeping asparagus rubber bands...... :)
Can you tell, neither one of us know what we are doing.... We just turn it on and...... get LUCKY!!!
6/8/2009 7:49:02 PM - 002029331419
The ones that they wrap 'sparagus in of course! Blue and strong! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
6/8/2009 7:35:55 PM - 001024320926
TV mode is an excellent mode, but I probably would have used AV mode. Whatever she did it worked and that's great!! The accidently photo is the best photo :) I will try again today and this time I'll drag out the tripod, what kind of rubber bands do I need Jean? Jamie I'll take pictures on all the modes and see what happens :) :)
6/8/2009 7:22:02 PM - 002029331419
Kim totally knew what she was doing...Experience, knowledge, training - - right Kim!! ..right kim...right?
And I'm afraid she'd going to get a lot of miles on my McGyver Rubber Band technique too....!
6/8/2009 6:55:50 PM - 002049843840
That is rude!!! You are doubting my camera taking capabilty. Now you are hurting my feelings. Jean, do you see how she treats me?
6/8/2009 6:46:34 PM - 002025703401
OK, I looked up TV mode. On a Canon, it allows you to set the shutter speed, and the camera automatically selects an aperture value to match the brightness of the subject... (in other words Kim got lucky).... ;)
6/8/2009 5:34:31 PM - 000074469281
Guess I'll just dream about getting a moon pic and maybe one day I'll get a camera that can take pictures like u do. I've never heard of TV settings either. Maybe Jean's rubber band trick will work! Ha
Jamie you should add one of those gorgeous moon pictures to my Shutterfly Friends page, so I can be inspired by it! Thanks for putting them on your site!
6/8/2009 4:51:04 PM - 002029331419
Oh THANKS Jamie!!!... Telling everyone my camera secrets!!! Now Everyone's going to want to try IT!!! LOL !! AH HA HA HA HAHA!! I was trying to impress you with my innovation (?) and McGyver technicques - and you laugh girl!!! Whaaaat!?! TV setting...a TV setting on a camera? I used the landscape also...but them fuzzy wuzzy clouds were messing up my groove on getting a good shot....but I have a few that at least when you look at it ...it looks like the Moon!
Last 2 Best cities are up too!
6/8/2009 3:37:23 PM - 002025703401
I like Kim's with the pine trees too!
I used a tripod and the landscape setting was the best on my camera. Kim says she found the TV setting worked best. I did not try that one. May try again tonight....
I have a Canon SX10 IS and Kim has a Canon S3 IS.
Ask Jean about rubber banding her camera to the tripod... LOL!
6/8/2009 3:17:11 PM - 002067758981
Yes, Marcia that's my fav. too!!
6/8/2009 3:16:52 PM - 002025703401
Marcia, I found blackmail pictures of you and Dianne. I'm saving them.... :)
6/8/2009 1:58:35 PM - 002071551455
The moon pictures were great. What settings were you using? I especially like the one that you can see a hint of the folage from a tree.
6/8/2009 1:56:59 PM - 002071551455
Whew, I had to check out the office pictures. I was afraid you might have slipped one in with those terrible old glasses. Thanks for the pitty.
6/8/2009 1:50:40 PM - 000074469281
Ok Jamie, I LOVE your moon pictures. I stood out there for a half hour Saturday night - it wasn't in my view last night. And all i got were fuzzy blobs. Maybe they'll look better when I download but I doubt it. It seemed worse when I zoomed in. So I guess this can't be done w/o a fancy camera?? I'm just fascinated by what you captured. I have seen some in books and thought they were fake until I saw yours. Very impressive!
I'll have to check out the kitchen page too.
later, Joey
6/8/2009 11:52:55 AM - 001024320926
Excellent moon pictures Jamie :) I love them!!! I gave up and went to bed!! Now I wish I had invested a little time in it :)
Linda's kitchen is awesome!! Love the kitchen and all the pictures!! Great page.
Working in surgery this morning, won't be back til around noon. Snore!!
Have a good morning, Lisa
6/8/2009 11:16:56 AM - 002025703401
I didn't know pictures were required or would have taken more yesterday.... Later, gonna go make myself walk and go to work early...
P.S. I still smell spag sauce.... And you need to proof the recipes for me. :)
6/8/2009 11:11:06 AM - 002067758981
Don't forget I need that retirement gift if you and Marcia get out this week.
6/8/2009 11:09:57 AM - 002067758981
Like moon pictures with just a hint of trees in them and like the new page also, we should have take pictures before things are gobbled up aroung like Joey does!!! Good job, I warned Marcia that you and Kim did not get much sleep............CRANKY alert!!!
6/8/2009 10:56:02 AM - 002025703401
How did you know I was up???? Coffee, coffee, give me coffee...
Check out the Linda's Kitchen page.
This is all Jean's fault..... But check out my moon pictures... :)
6/8/2009 10:48:12 AM - 002067758981

6/8/2009 4:31:04 AM - 002049843840
Okay, see ya tomorrow!

6/8/2009 4:22:47 AM - 002025703401
You just want vacation time....
6/8/2009 4:20:22 AM - 002049843840
We'll see, can I keep the brownie points for later???
6/8/2009 4:15:31 AM - 002025703401
This is going to cost me, isn't it????
6/8/2009 4:14:43 AM - 002049843840
Whatever you say boss!! What have you been doing?? Ummmm.......
Taking pics of the moon, building more pages, hee hee hee! I want tell I promise :o)
6/8/2009 3:54:44 AM - 002025703401
Ok - I was building a Mother Nature page about hurricanes but put my moon pictures at the top. There are dump trucks going up and down my street due to IH10 construction... I bet they are wondering what I am do....
PS - I am now in a nightgown, NOT going back out... Kim, you may have to help cover me tomorrow, I haven't started on my work... :)
6/8/2009 3:50:22 AM - 002029331419
LOL!!! You guys are such good sports!!....well...Jamie kinda whines a little...but mosquitos make me whine too!! LOL!! We have clouds tonight...thus the great sunset pictures...but really lousy moon pictures!! Going to check out what Kim got....

All of my moon pictures are on my mother nature page now. Not going back outside by myself, call me a chicken I don't care.
6/8/2009 3:39:09 AM - 002025703401

6/8/2009 3:29:10 AM - 002025703401
The mosquitoes are sucking all my blood!!! If I get a disease, Jean is going to have to be responsible.... :)
6/8/2009 3:12:48 AM - 002049843840
Got a couple thru the trees, put pics on bottom of my mother nature page.
May check again later.
6/8/2009 2:56:50 AM - 002029331419

6/7/2009 11:43:44 PM - 002029331419
Jamie - Great idea on the Linda's Kitchen!! I've been WAITING.... fingers tap tap...toe...tap tap....to see pictures of all of her veggies - and garden pictures....Waiting!!
Kim - I'll have to check on your site!
Lisa - I hope San Diego Council tells them...you gave it to us...and we are keeping it!! After seeing it by the Midway - Bob Hope site & the Harbour.......I CANNOT think of anywhere that that Statue will ever fit ----------then SAN DIEGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Period!! Done....
'Let it be written....Let it be done!!"......
6/7/2009 8:00:35 PM - 001024320926
Me either, trust me with a camera that is :) :)
Thanks Kim!! I feel less like a goober now :)
6/7/2009 7:35:48 PM - 002049843840
Lisa, you are not a goober. You just can't trust Jamie with a camera!
Jamie, I think that is a great idea for Linda's Kitchen. Sounds fun!
I have added some new stuff to my page, have you checked it out yet?
6/7/2009 6:33:18 PM - 001024320926
Freaking Florida wants it back.......................tell them hell no!!!!! I am so upset over that!!! That is so wrong!!
Linda's Kitchen is an awesome idea!! I can't wait to see what's on the menu :) :) Pictures of the cukes and squashes a plenty :) Love it!!
Christmas is just the best of the best!!! I love that you have to buy new clothes, more fun shopping huh?? I don't like to shop because of my weight so as a result of that I have been wearing the same tired clothes for ever, faded, worn and buttons missing. It's way more fun buying clothes for Kyleigh!!!
Kim, I'm a goober too :) Does that help? Ok, ok stop crying you don't look as bad as me, I'm sorry I said it. :) :)
6/7/2009 5:01:16 PM - 002025703401
Cheri - It is a conspiracy, Florida wants you to visit them..... Thank you and Lisa for the compliments on my new pages. :)
Lisa - I love Christmas too! Since I've lost weight, I'm gonna have to buy new sweaters this year!
So, did you and Randy go to the plant store? I was working in my yard, but came in, too hotttt!
You gave me another page idea, Linda's Kitchen. I will get the recipes she's been talking about that I don't have this afternoon.... Another Travel Fever Club field trip idea, Savannah Georgia to visit Paul Deen's restaurants... oh, and see the other sites!
Kim - Why do you think I used that picture? Goober? Maybe.....
6/7/2009 4:25:59 PM - 000093706714
Love the 'That's What Friends Are For' and 'Co-worker' pages! Great additions!
6/7/2009 4:22:21 PM - 000093706714
So, you think I don't have reason to be paranoid? Check this out:
THEY ARE MOVING THE KISSING STATUE FROM SAN DIEGO!!!! C'mon.......WHAT ARE THE ODDS????????
Here's the scoop: The statue's original home was Florida. And the residents hated it which is how San Diego became the recipient. (Floridians thought is was hideous and that it caused too many traffic accidents from gawkers!) And NOW, they want it back! Not sure of the planned return date......just hoping it is not before I get my dang pic!
What are the odds????????????OMG.........................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cracking me up................(NOT!)
6/7/2009 4:20:21 PM - 002049843840
I like our new page!! Except for the picture of me on the bottom, I look like a major goober.
6/7/2009 2:53:47 PM - 001024320926
Love the new page Jamie :) Looks like a great group of people :) Jamie I like your Christmas sweater :) Christmas is my favorite :)
6/7/2009 2:51:38 PM - 001024320926
I've got a bunch of Paula Deen cookbooks, maybe I'll love them up and make that my next Elle's Diner cooking adventure!! Linda you've inspired me :) I wish I lived closer too :)
Jamie what kind of external hard drive did you order? Have you rec'd it yet? Hey I have a Co-workers page too, they love it but don't comment, bummer!!
I have to do some running with Randy today so I won't be back til later. Ya'll have fun :)
6/7/2009 1:56:02 PM - 002025703401
I've made a new page call "The Office Crew". The girls in the office keep asking when they were going to have a page, so......
6/7/2009 3:54:08 AM - 002049843840
I talked to Elaine earlier, she said everything went fine, she doesn't like taking off. They had some turbulance going into Phoenix, but she is ready to go again. We may have another travel junky on our hands.
6/7/2009 3:50:45 AM - 002025703401
Hey Kim! Remember the cake picture yesterday? Marcia looks like a goober in it..... So, I may have to use it on the blackmail page! :)
6/7/2009 3:44:24 AM - 002025703401
Great!
6/7/2009 3:43:21 AM - 002049843840

6/7/2009 3:24:24 AM - 002025703401
And you are leaving again in two weeks.... You must have a nice boss! :)
6/7/2009 3:22:12 AM - 002049843840
I would love to take all the credit for the blueberries and get cake, but my lovely aunts did pick them.
Congrats on the final payment, I'm excited for ya'll. Can you believe it almost here.
And it has been a year since I was there, time just flies.
6/7/2009 3:17:23 AM - 002025703401
Mom, Kim wants you to make her a cake..... and Kay to make lemon blossoms.....
Lisa, why do you think we are chunky? It all started with my grandmother. Ma was a food pusher and Mom is turning into one...
We grilled burgers at Mom's this evening. Nothing is better than a burger with fresh garden tomatoes. YUM!
6/7/2009 3:14:53 AM - 002025703401
Forget about the food (I'm full), hold the presses, IT IS DONE!!! We made our final payment on the cruise!!! We are going to Alaska in 72 days.....
6/7/2009 3:11:54 AM - 002067758981
Kim, I'll try to get Jamie to bring you a cake real soon........you deserve one for getting me blueberries. By the way, ask her what kind of blueberry treat I had for them with the burgers ( besides the cucumbers, LOL)
6/7/2009 3:08:59 AM - 002067758981
They are talking Paula Deen's German Chocolate Goey Butter Cake....is good!! Wish you did live closer, Lisa.
It's great that you and Barbara may get together before her cruise. I am excited about ours and Barb's only 20 days away and you Lisa, in Canada, it'll be great!!!
6/7/2009 2:58:10 AM - 001024320926
Barb leaves soon for her trip, we'll be in Canada on the same day before she leaves on her crusie :) Hoping to meet long enough to get a picture :)
I love cucumbers!!! Love them!! I'd take a ton off your hands if I were there :) But what's this about German Chocolate Cakes Bars!!!! Now we're really talking!! I'd be twice my size if I lived near ya'll and I'm already chunky :)
6/7/2009 2:47:38 AM - 001023411097
Jamie, Love the music and love this site. I have come by and have had trouble with my puter. Its OK now and I'm glad. I need to look around. I only have 20 days until Alaska. Can't wait! Photos and more Photos bj
6/6/2009 11:15:50 PM - 002049843840
Hey Linda, Jamie wanted me to ask when you and Kay were going to fix the gals in the office those german chocolate cake bars and lemon blossoms :( :( We are soooooo hungry!!
6/6/2009 10:50:14 PM - 002029331419
Jamie - Are you home now?!
If your bored....Linda has some Cukes she needs fixed! ;0) I love it! :0)
Linda...what kind of plants did she bring you? Will you have room for them? You have a garden and a flower garden both, right?
6/6/2009 9:30:47 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, she got that right!!! Ya'll have to try to plan something else.
6/6/2009 9:29:34 PM - 002025703401
You had better watch out, if Mother could, she would have me delivering you a bucket of cukes right now.... Everyone gets stuck with cukes...... Trust me, if we had met you on the 20th in Galveston, you would have had to rent a uhaul for your cukes.... :)
Don't even get me started on the squash problem.... It has not started yet!
6/6/2009 9:20:19 PM - 001024320926
I love the new page Jamie, it's so neat to have your friends on here :) I love that you've known them forever :) Nothing like history with good friends.
I had to work a little this morning and I brought some home for later, good thing I get over time :)
Taking care of Miss Kyleigh today and she's being a little cutie :)
Someone stole some plants........you saved the cukes though right?
Lisa
6/6/2009 7:54:01 PM - 002025703401
Marcia did not steal your plants.....
PS - Find your passport. We are making our final payment tonight and are going to double check information online with Princess!!! YAH!

Elaine is a coworker who is going on her very first plane trip to Phoenix. She is a little FREAKED out about flying......
6/6/2009 7:25:14 PM - 002049843840
I told her to just remember how much fun she's gonna have when she gets there and chill out
6/6/2009 7:23:43 PM - 002025703401
She sent me one back - That she was on the plane... So, I returned, "Good Luck"....
6/6/2009 7:22:29 PM - 002025703401
I told her to get on the plane!
6/6/2009 7:22:05 PM - 002049843840
Yeah, I guess she's freakin
6/6/2009 7:20:38 PM - 002025703401

6/6/2009 7:19:55 PM - 002049843840
Didn't mean to to get you in trouble heehee!!!!
6/6/2009 6:53:00 PM - 002025703401
Kimberly that was Marcia.......
A car salesman stole your plants Momma!!! HA! They wouldn't know what to do with them.... :)
6/6/2009 6:52:26 PM - 002067758981
Someone's gonna steal my plants, Kim!!!
6/6/2009 6:37:38 PM - 002049843840

6/6/2009 6:26:19 PM - 002067758981
Did I tell you that us ole ladies on Linscomb Road love you!!!!
6/6/2009 5:56:45 PM - 002025703401
The back of my Explorer is already full from this mornings trip...... I got more than you wanted.... Also got Maureen something....
6/6/2009 5:50:16 PM - 002067758981
So you're in hiding and the tall guy (TG) found you, maybe you should go back to plant store if the TG causes too much stress!!! I love your new page, Jamie, and you know I love your old friends...........Jean, these four women never lost touch the way most of us lose touch with high school friends............Bill is the only one that lives out of town but her parents still live here.......just gives girls another reason to travel.....have to go check on the 'BILL' outside of Austin.
6/6/2009 5:19:56 PM - 002025703401
You should hear Kay snort like a buffalo...... She bought the buffalo for her nephew.......
And the answer to your other question is no, the tall guy just left my office. :(
6/6/2009 5:16:58 PM - 002049843840
Kay do you still have your little buffalo, so cute!!
So, Jamie are you having a better day?
6/6/2009 5:10:38 PM - 002025703401
Home Depot plant department - across the freeway from work....
And I played the saxophone, so did Kay.... Billie played the clarinet and Gina the flute.... NERDS!
I'm hiding in my office, but both bosses found me.....
6/6/2009 5:05:44 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie!! Your That's What Friends are for .........it's REALLY Nice!! What a great way to do some more bonding with your old Band Buddies...I'm guessing you played the clarinet? :0)
Spending money ... plants, shoes, Home Depot....for some crazy reason...it does calm down some stress!! I think so anyway...why do you think I'm torturing everyone with up dating our Patio!!....and it ain't cheap!! Looking good...but lots of work and $$$$!! But I'm going to have until October to really enjoy it...and I am! 'Specially now that my lap top is fixed!
Hope you day settles down...that plant store probably already knows you by your first name!!
6/6/2009 4:05:42 PM - 002025703401
OK, I've been to the plant store already.... But, it is Moms fault, she called wanting more.... :)
6/6/2009 1:15:29 PM - 001076975951
Jamie...."Thanks so much for adding the BEAUTIFUL photos to my sharing page" "I love each and every one." I am so glad you stopped by. I will go and check out your new page. You site is a real treat to visit each and every time. Have a wonderful weekend? What are your plans?
6/6/2009 12:54:13 PM - 002025703401
Check out my new page - "That's What Friends Are For".
At least I didn't roll in it like Kay or the Brother... And no emergency room for me either.....
The day is early Mom, you may still get a plant....
6/6/2009 12:27:20 PM - 002071401838
Good morning. Yes, I contacted a title company and they can handle the paperwork. I'll call them next week to set up an appointment.
6/6/2009 12:12:28 PM - 002067758981
Anyone want to guess what the dark spaces are in pictures of Jamie sledding (Blackmail). Kay you are good!!!
Congrats on signing paperwork. Have ya'll contacted anyone about the paperwork for other house?
6/6/2009 12:05:57 PM - 002067758981
Oh, I think that means I won't be getting a plant today.
6/6/2009 11:09:25 AM - 002025703401
Kim, Jamie has to work.....
Jean, Yesterday was a 2 plant store day.... Marcia & I went at lunch and I stopped at another on the way home......
Occasionally, I get overwhelmed with projects and problems at work. It's also called full moon syndrome (full moon = June 7 = Sunday), the weirdos and problems come out of the woodwork. All of us that have worked there a long time, swear it is true!
But, today is a new day.... :)
6/6/2009 3:50:08 AM - 002049843840
Congrats Kay!! Sounds like you and your friend Jamie are going to have a fun few months. LOL!
6/6/2009 3:30:11 AM - 002029331419
And Jamie........You better get a refund on those sledding lessons you paid for - according to those pictures you were NOT paying attention to the instructor!! ;0) LOL!!
6/6/2009 3:25:27 AM - 002029331419
Yea!!! Kay!!! I'm so glad for you! It's going to be an adventure!! :0) But always well worth it once you get it done. Well, that's what I keep telling myself about this patio up grade!
Jamie - What's stressing you girl....for you to buy all those flowers?!! Is it work? I know your in the 'car' business...is that it? Your going on a cruise soon! Keep thinking about that!!
6/6/2009 3:12:29 AM - 002025703401
Yeah, I fell asleep in the chair an hour ago, now I'm getting my second wind.....
6/6/2009 2:54:26 AM - 002071401838
I'm sorry you're disappointed. I'll try to do better next time.
My little dog is ready to go to bed, so I'll talk to you tomorrow.
6/6/2009 2:47:16 AM - 002025703401
Ha! Those weren't so bad..... Not the one's I'm sweating over.......
Just remember I have more of you, Missy! I need to find more on Gina and Billie too!
6/6/2009 2:37:46 AM - 002071401838
Thanks, Jamie. There's a surprise for you on the blackmail page. Enjoy. ;-p
6/6/2009 2:33:09 AM - 002025703401
Congratulations Kay!!!
Kay is buying her grandparents old house across the street from her Mom. The work begins. She is going to have some work done on it, then put her current house up for sale. I think I have to work.....
Jean - When work is stressing me, I stop by the plant store.... Mom always seems to benefit from my stops..... :)
6/6/2009 1:48:12 AM - 002071401838
Hey, Linda. I signed the papers today. I'm getting excited now!
6/6/2009 1:43:49 AM - 002067758981
Yes, (she almost always has to work or has meetin' to go to) because she knows I have a lot of tomatoes to peel tomorrow............that's ok because she will be cooking the burgers for Kay and I and her Dad when she gets out here. I'll have to plant flowers in the morning before it gets too hot for the old woman.
6/6/2009 1:39:56 AM - 002029331419
Oh Cool! What kind of flowers? Be grateful girls that you live where flowers grow so easy!! I see a cactus that's about ready to bloom...I'll get some pictures of those! :0)
So Jamie Wasn't to busy today to buy Linda More flowers to plant in her yard! Yeah..Friday's are pretty flexible, eh? And Jamie you say you have to go in tomorrow? ... he he! ;0)
6/6/2009 1:36:06 AM - 002067758981
We sure could fix you up with a bucket or two.......my darling daughter brought some more flowers for me to plant today!!! She just wants to have plenty flowers for her camera....
6/6/2009 1:16:06 AM - 002025703401
Lisa, do you want me to hop in the car and bring you a 5 gallon bucket full?
6/5/2009 10:54:53 PM - 001024320926
Send those cukes on Linda, I've got a salt shaker and a knife, I'm ready :)
6/5/2009 7:05:48 PM - 002067758981
Ya'll can have the lot of them!!! Have a great week-end, Starla!!
6/5/2009 6:01:19 PM - 002025703401
Mine are plain with a little salt and pepper.....
6/5/2009 5:59:30 PM - 002055694880
HA! I get it!!! I like mine with vinger and oil and season salt please.
6/5/2009 5:57:15 PM - 002025703401
Meetings...... I've read what you guys have wrote and I'm taking names....
6/5/2009 5:56:16 PM - 002025703401

A quote for you:
Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind. ~Seneca
6/5/2009 5:23:29 PM - 001024320926

She was in a "meetin" hope we go to lunch soon. We only come to work to go to lunch anyway
6/5/2009 4:37:50 PM - 002067758981

Jamie, Linda and the whole bunch. Dropping a quick note. Headed to the Lake for some camping this weekend. Gonna be a blast now that Jason got our camper fixed! I am so excited. We are going to the Oklahoma side this time. Maybe it will not be as flooded. Have a wonderful weekend!!
P.S You didn't get a belly ache from eating all those blueberries??
6/5/2009 3:16:07 PM - 001024320926
Linda my husband does that same thing to cukes :) He also called the fridge the 'icebox' too :) One of my most favorite foods is home made hamburgers :) Yum!!! Love them.
6/5/2009 2:48:50 PM - 002067758981
Well you have to add a little salt, celery and mustard seed......easy and good.
6/5/2009 2:47:45 PM - 002067758981
We do what used to be called 'ICE BOX PICKLES'........sliced cuks and onions.....heat vinegar and sugar, let set in ref. for a couple of days, so good!! and crisp!!!
6/5/2009 2:04:01 PM - 002029331419
Yum Linda! Your cook out sounds just great! Do you do any cucumbers in the vinegar with S&P and chill for a day? Ohh...they are soo good!! And blueberry...something...Yum!!!
Your place is going to be hopping!
6/5/2009 12:18:59 PM - 002067758981
That excuse will not work, Missy. I know better!!!
6/5/2009 12:17:13 PM - 002025703401
I'm busy.... gotta work!!!!!
6/5/2009 12:16:22 PM - 002067758981
Oh yeah,they were very good....plan to make Kay something very good for Saturday with some of them!!! Maybe Jamie too, if she's good, huh Kay? Hope everyone has a wonderful week-end!!! We're having a party here..................everyone that comes may be peeling tomatoes or cukes (along with eating home made hamburgers).......How many takers do you think I will have? LOL
6/5/2009 2:56:53 AM - 002025703401
Frederick Facts - You never know if we are telling the truth.....
But, this time I am...... They were YUMMY! Have I said that before?
6/5/2009 2:51:09 AM - 002029331419
Hmm... such an educational site...I thought most blueberries were grown up in the Northwest area of the Country.... But TX too!! Cool!!
6/5/2009 2:48:00 AM - 002025703401
Kim's aunt went to a blueberry farm and brought me 2 gallons to take my mom. I think by the end of the afternoon, I was missing a quart. YUM! My tongue is blue..... :)
6/5/2009 2:46:22 AM - 002025703401
You got me on that one Jean. That was plan evil.......
6/5/2009 2:44:53 AM - 001024320926
Gosh I go pick up my g-baby and there's talk of blueberries, cruises and more blueberries and more cruises.
6/5/2009 2:39:08 AM - 002029331419
Jamie...I had blueberries this morning too.... ;0)
Have you been to Garden City Kansas? he he
6/5/2009 2:11:11 AM - 002025703401
Told Cheri on her site that I would also lean toward the San Diego trip. It's a win-win situation. Family, cruising, and a land trip!
6/5/2009 2:03:19 AM - 000093706714
Hey Jamie
How are you? I have been very absent again..... BUT I have also buried myself in TRAVEL SEARCHES and believe I have nailed the 2 options for consideration:
1) St. Thomas Cruise (7 or 9 day)
2) Trip to San Diego (6 nites) + a 4 day cruise
I am leaning very heavily to the San Diego trip as I can get SO MUCH vacationing in for the $$$$....and my gosh what a TON to do! My brother was also restationed to San Diego from Japan so I could sneak in some visit time with him as well.
So my traveling guru.......what is your opinion?
I will get back into the swing of things eventually. For now, just know all of my SF friends remain in my thoughts!
Take care.
Cheri
6/5/2009 1:51:22 AM - 002071401838
Me either....I wish we were leaving NOW.
6/5/2009 1:49:31 AM - 002025703401
Pssst! Did you know it's 74 days and counting???? I'm not excited........ :)
6/5/2009 1:45:28 AM - 002025703401
Not always.... Maybe 2/3 of the time.......
6/5/2009 1:44:54 AM - 002071401838
Don't lie....you always ate what MawMaw sent for me.
6/5/2009 1:44:23 AM - 002025703401
What dumplings? Never had them....... At least I used to share gumbo with her......
6/5/2009 1:43:23 AM - 002071401838
OK - count me in.
6/5/2009 1:43:03 AM - 002067758981
Jamie, sounds like you will not be getting (the famous) dumplings anytime soon............Kay, I will probably make something with blueberries for Saturday evening at our house.
6/5/2009 1:38:32 AM - 002071401838
Fine....I'll remember that the next time my Mom makes chicken and dumplings.
6/5/2009 1:28:12 AM - 002025703401
Oh Hey Mom, Kay is signing the papers at the bank tomorrow... I forgot to tell you....
Kay - I think I ate yours...... I've eaten so many that I gave all the rest to Mom.... :)
6/5/2009 1:20:21 AM - 002071401838
She emailed me today. I go in tomorrow at 3:00 to sign the papers.
6/5/2009 1:18:09 AM - 002067758981
A whole bunch are there!!! She ate them all afternoon...........Kay, did you call Sandy?
6/5/2009 1:16:28 AM - 002071401838
Blueberries??? Where are mine?? Are they in your BELLY?????
6/4/2009 11:38:08 PM - 002025703401
No....... It's a little different.....
6/4/2009 11:30:17 PM - 002067758981
Is that the quote that Kay says?
6/4/2009 11:20:21 PM - 002025703401
In my tummy...... :)
6/4/2009 11:12:59 PM - 002067758981
WHERE ARE MY BLUEBERRIES?
6/4/2009 10:44:24 PM - 002025703401
Hey! I've done a few things today besides eat blueberries....
6/4/2009 10:42:03 PM - 002071551455
I'm on it , Training Kim and Darla to do my job is a piece of cake. You are on your own training them for yours. Of course learning to eat blueberries shouldn't be hard to learn.
6/4/2009 10:24:02 PM - 002025703401
You will travel anywhere!!! GO! GO! GO!
6/4/2009 10:14:30 PM - 002067758981
No PBR for me......enough animals out here for me ( man included )!!! LOL Will travel to see balloons in NM!!!
6/4/2009 9:49:08 PM - 002055694880
Ladies I understand, I'm not happy about it but I guess I'll get over it.....Well it was an amazing thought tho wasn't it. We will plan something else. K'Lee always wanted to get on a plane. Her daddy has never been on a plane either.. So another adventure awaits!
6/4/2009 9:27:03 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, How are you today? Working hard and daydreaming about your upcoming cruise? I hope that once you return you will add some of your favorite pictures on my site on the sharing page. I'd love to have you add your amazing photography of Alaska. Of course you can share any other of your trips too. All photos are welcome of the share page.
Just wanted to say Hello and have a great evening.
6/4/2009 7:58:09 PM - 002025703401
Kim, If we go PBR, you are sitting by MOM!!!
6/4/2009 7:28:23 PM - 001024320926
I do understand. I didn't realize Father's Day was that weekend either. But fortunately Randy will be with me, kinda his gift - going to Galveston :) Definitely have to work on something else for the Travel Fever Club :) I would love to meet all of ya'll :)
6/4/2009 7:24:08 PM - 002049843840
You know the PBR has an event in Albuquerque every year..........Darla and I would be there for sure :)
6/4/2009 7:09:23 PM - 002067758981
Lisa and Starla, hope you understand.......you two and Jamie has to deceide another week-end soon!!!
6/4/2009 6:09:35 PM - 002025703401
I didn't realize it was Father's Day either.... I thought it was the weekend before. Bummer...
Mom and I are going to backout too. But, maybe we can plan something in the future... Jean, Kim is always watching Southwest for specials. We may show up in your town someday.....
6/4/2009 5:36:08 PM - 002067758981
Oh Jean, I didn't realize that week-end was Father's Day week-end either............We'll just have to plan another get together soon
6/4/2009 5:23:12 PM - 001024320926
Bummer Jean!! I didn't realize that was father's day weekend, but if Randy goes then I can say that it's for father's day, to celebrate fathers day :)
Starla, Ha ha ha I bummed you, I bummed you!! Any one else and I might have felt bad :) :)
Jamie thanks for looking at my photobooks. You should make a few books outta the pictures of your travels :) The 12 x 12's are spectular, great quality :) Seriously you should look it. You could make your own travel books!!
6/4/2009 5:01:22 PM - 002029331419
Hey Girlies! Sorry but we're going to have to back out of this trip - this time. It just wasn't working for us with flights. Did you see that the 21st is Father's Day weekend? Well, Just wanted to let you know! Your going to have a great time! I'll be thinking of you! :0)
6/4/2009 4:02:28 PM - 002029331419
Got it Jamie....THX!! I thought that was the one...but wasn't sure.
6/4/2009 3:51:20 PM - 002055694880
You kicked me off H! I had a wonderful msg all typed out and well there went that one!!!
I thought you were in a meeting
6/4/2009 3:50:43 PM - 002055694880
The La Quinta
6/4/2009 3:50:21 PM - 001024320926
Looking at hotels now, may have to do the Hoilday Inn, not sure yet.
6/4/2009 3:45:49 PM - 002025703401
Marcia - Now, you are going to suckup.... We could teach Kim how to do our jobs and leave her incharge next year while we vacation..... :)
6/4/2009 3:44:12 PM - 002025703401
Hey Jean, check your email.... I sent you a copy of my reservation this morning.
6/4/2009 3:39:04 PM - 002071551455
Er did I say GB? That could stand for Great Boss you know.
6/4/2009 3:35:29 PM - 002029331419
There are 3 Holiday Inns on the same street...which one are you guys going to stay at?
I'm doing my research...so to speak.
6/4/2009 3:24:15 PM - 002025703401
Kim, you will have to ask Marcia......
Who is going to be left behind to run the office? I'm the GB, I get to leave.......
6/4/2009 3:16:03 PM - 002049843840
I wanna go to NY next year!!
6/4/2009 2:59:27 PM - 002025703401
At our area of the beach you can drive on too, but all the hotels are destoyed or have workers living there.
By the way, Mom and I get hot flashes with 1 glass of wine.....
Have you guys ever ridden the ferry across the bay?
6/4/2009 1:37:58 PM - 002071551455
I have been working and haven't been able to catch up on the trips. New York! what a wonderful trip. Too bad we both can't be gone at the same time. I hope we can still all travel after we retire. At least we won't have to travel seperately. Maybe we can all sign up to work in Yellowstone one summer.
6/4/2009 1:18:01 PM - 002067758981
Me too, me too!
Count me in for September in NY!
6/4/2009 12:33:17 PM - 001024320926
Probably have to stay in Galveston, but I prefer driving out onto the beach at Surfside for beach fun. It's probably a fishing tornament that has our rooms booked!! So I'll probably be calling Holiday Inn today as well.
NY, next September? I'm there!!
6/4/2009 12:19:26 PM - 002055694880
That is great! I think that we are going to have to get one in Galveston too. There is something going on in Surfside. Mom is coming to. This is going to be so fun!!!
Lots of wine and lots of hot flashes! WOO HOO! Lots of hats for the bad hair days!!
Loving this!
6/4/2009 10:43:25 AM - 002025703401
I booked a hotel room in Galveston!
Lisa, it's not the San Luis, but the Holiday Inn next door. I don't know if I've mentioned before, but we generally stay Holiday Inn and collect hotel points.
All our hotels stays on the Alaska trip are being paid with hotel points. We are now saving points for 3 nights in New York City next year.
Joanne, the Travel Fever Club will have a meeting in New York next September! :)
6/4/2009 3:04:01 AM - 002025703401
I (unfortunately) inherited my Dad's hair. Mom's is wavy and thick, but I get straight and thin. The sea breeze and humidity does not allow a good hair day. It's bad when your mom asks if you are going to put a hat on....
6/4/2009 2:30:11 AM - 001024320926
Hello late arrival, Jean is a comin and Jamie is a making plans, Lordy, Lordy this is really gonna happen and I am as excited as excited gets!!! Woohoo!! But Starla and I have already got a snag in our plans. The motel we wanted is booked, dang it!!! So I'm looking for something else. That was the best place for close to the shore and non crowds :(
Travel Fever pandemic!!! Linda you're coming too!! Woohoo!! I can see the picture now :) The first call to order of the Travel Fever club :)
Jamie wear the hat, I always look bad in hot weather because I sweat and I'm chunky. So I cover up as much badness with a little makeup as I can, put on a visor and sunglasses and go.
6/4/2009 1:42:01 AM - 002029331419
I'm trying Linda! ... This Travel Fever has everyone in a Frenzy!! LOL!
6/4/2009 1:32:00 AM - 002025703401
I'm in planning mode then I'll ask them.....
6/4/2009 1:29:37 AM - 002049843840
You are a good planner. No you can't take my place, I'll just catch up on the next get together.
6/4/2009 1:28:34 AM - 002067758981
What about Kay and Marcia?
6/4/2009 1:27:25 AM - 002025703401
Over on her site, Jean asked her husband and he said maybe.... How much $$$$? She's working on it....
6/4/2009 1:25:24 AM - 002067758981
Jean, you coming to Galveston with us?
6/4/2009 1:24:08 AM - 002067758981
Kim. she only has drinks when she doesn't have to drive. She and Kay are the drivers.....hehehehe...... I planned it that way. I can have what I want. LOL Oh yeah to the flashes....Sorry you will not be in Galveston.....do you want me to take your place and go to Vegas for you? LOL
6/4/2009 1:20:35 AM - 002049843840
I expect there will be some blackmail photos :) :)
6/4/2009 1:18:29 AM - 002025703401
Hey, Mom has the flashes too!!!
6/4/2009 1:17:56 AM - 002049843840
I am so jealous :( But, I am really excited that ya'll get to meet. Ya'll will have a really great time, just don't let Jamie drink to much wine, I heard stories about hot flashes.
Linda - keep us informed.
6/4/2009 1:17:53 AM - 002025703401
I was over on Jean's site writing her a book....
6/4/2009 12:56:52 AM - 002029331419
elPresidente.......What airport should I be looking at for flights? from ABQ?
6/4/2009 12:49:11 AM - 002025703401
Starla/Lisa - Send me the number. I am still trying to decide if we will stay there, Galveston, or Crystal Beach. I think Mom is excited about this too!
6/4/2009 12:45:52 AM - 002025703401
Thanks Joanne - Springtime in Texas is a special time. If you ever get the chance to visit, definitely come in late March or April!
As for the cruise, we always seem to buy new clothes.... This time, Mom and I have both lost weight, and here in Texas we just don't need warmer clothes.
I am very anal about our trips and plan them out in detail. I have a 35 page Word document with the details for our Alaska trip. They make fun of me, but when we arrive at our destination, there is no worries or guessing what can we do next. We just enjoy the environment and each others company. We are so busy in real life, that our trips are the only time we get to spend together.... :)
6/4/2009 12:03:32 AM - 002055694880
I am making a reservation at that hotel that Lisa stays at. She sent me the number. I like that it has a kitchenette and that the Beach is right there! Gonna try to email you the number if you want....?
6/3/2009 11:35:42 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Hope you had a great day today. I came to explore some more of your pages. I viewed the Brenham 2009 page. And words can not explain the beauty of those photos. The flowers, the fields were simply WOW! Breathtaking and a sense of wonder and peace. I love that page and I am so glad you have this wonderful site to share all your adventures with us.
As for the cruise, do you have any special rituals, like buying a new outfit or anything like that? I always try to buy a few new outfits or a dress for formal evening. I'll be seeing you and have a great evening.
6/3/2009 11:27:59 PM - 002025703401
Where are you making a reservation? I usually wear a hat, but for you guys I might actually fix my hair....
6/3/2009 11:24:51 PM - 002055694880
CRAP!! Didn't mean to do that! Something happened had to unplug my connection! Can you tell I am excited!!
6/3/2009 11:16:11 PM - 002055694880
Fishing...I'm in!!! Cajun and Seafood!! I'm in!
I sooo cannot wait for this trip!!! I have my sweat band ready! Actually I think since it's still early in the season that the wind should be fine and all will be well. The wind will blow everyone's BO away! Calling now to make my reservation!!! Joey hop on that plane to. Texas coast is not so different from Hawaii. Except for the white beaches, and the lai's and well ok they are different but still FUN!
6/3/2009 11:13:06 PM - 002025703401
We are the same! Our house at Crystal Beach is not one of those half million dollar houses.... We fish and play there and just drive over to Galveston for lunch and girl stuff (shopping on the Strand). Mom and I want to see Moody Gardens, haven't been in years and they have added alot of stuff. The problem for us is the ferry traffic now, it takes at least two or three hours to get across on the weekends... Our favorite seafood restaurant is Benno's on the Seawall. Have you ever been? Cajun seafood, YUM!!!
6/3/2009 10:17:04 PM - 001024320926
I love the power, yes, yes cancel them alllllll!!!!! Evil laugh inserted here :)
Jamie we normally stay at a hole in the wall in Surfside, called the Surfside Motel (it's clean and not too crowded around there), usually with a kitchenette :) The beach is a hop, skip and a jump right behind the motel :) Then we drive to Galveston for the resturants and fun stuff. I would love to stay at the San Luis Resort once, looks very nice there. Surfside is where all the men folk do all their fishing :)
6/3/2009 9:50:12 PM - 002025703401
What expenses..... I'm just picking. I can hear the wining now..
6/3/2009 9:38:06 PM - 002049843840
You could, but our expenses would have to be reimbursed!
6/3/2009 9:14:13 PM - 002025703401
Lisa, where do you guys usually stay in Galveston? Favorite restaurants?
I could cancel all June vacations for other people....
6/3/2009 8:17:03 PM - 002049843840
Darla and I can't on the 20th, we will be in an airplane to Viva Las Vegas!! But, I'm sure ya'll will be thinking of us, and not making fun of us (Jamie).
6/3/2009 8:13:42 PM - 001024320926
Linda, I'm in, the 20th is good!! I would love it. Ya'll just give me the green flag and I'm full throttle!!
6/3/2009 7:48:24 PM - 002067758981
We all want to go somewhere cool...................80's and 90's here this week and it's only beginning of June!
6/3/2009 7:46:44 PM - 002067758981
Joey, we have back door guests all the time here. Here, when you get up in the morning, you'd better go ahead and get dressed for the day, because someone is going to be by to see if the coffee is on or in the case of my neighbor, she'll stop by to see what's blooming in my yard that's different from hers.
6/3/2009 7:43:01 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, are you up to June 20? It would be fun to meet everyone, maybe have some lunch and see some of our favorite spots in Galveston...we have not been since Ike came to visit.
6/3/2009 7:40:55 PM - 002067758981
Real deep here!!! And it's not snow, Jean.
6/3/2009 7:25:56 PM - 002029331419
Wow...You had a needle and thread? I saw pictures of those...in skool.....
6/3/2009 7:12:54 PM - 002025703401
It is getting DEEP in Texas.........
6/3/2009 6:54:05 PM - 001024320926
I sweat!! Linda it was in the snow and as a matter of fact sleet too. We ate one meal a day and I had to make clothes for my brothers and sisters with needle and thread and used feed sacks...............and then I worked at the factory swiping 6 foot, no 9 foot piles of saw dust til midnite...........I cooked supper too on a wood burning stove...with wood I collected on my walks to and from school....
6/3/2009 6:16:07 PM - 002025703401
Don't worry about bring a sweater...... It's a steam bath outside today! :)
6/3/2009 6:12:43 PM - 002029331419
June in Texas....Joey...I'm not sure if it's much hotter in Hawaii...or Humid!! LOL!!
6/3/2009 6:07:30 PM - 000074469281
Awesome 'in the garden' page!!
6/3/2009 6:04:53 PM - 000074469281

6/3/2009 5:40:20 PM - 002067758981
Thru snow too, Lisa, you forgot about tromping through snow, sleet and rain too!! LOL
6/3/2009 5:36:46 PM - 002029331419
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! But Lisa...was it 6 mile to and from school.........up hill both ways?!?!LOL!!
6/3/2009 5:22:16 PM - 002067758981

6/3/2009 4:37:54 PM - 002055694880

Lisa, you just bumped me!!! Yeah, she's bossy, busy and cranky..........but still has to answer Mommmmmmmmmmmmmma's calls. Very idea, having to work at work......it's almost twelve, they all go to lunch at twelve, maybe she won't get me til after lunch!! I could show her busy with dirty house, 2 pets that want to stay under my feet ( one tries to eat the vacoom) peeling tomatoes and baking a cake.....answering phone, neighbor telling to come over, she has another new daylily blooming!! LOL Welcome to my day!!!
6/3/2009 4:21:38 PM - 001024320926
LOL!! You had to take a call from your Mom!! Now that's some hard work. You want to hear about work, I'll tell ya about work............when I was little I didn't have shoes and had to walk 6 miles to and from school.
6/3/2009 3:44:27 PM - 002025703401
Yeah! I just had to take a call from my mother....
6/3/2009 3:38:50 PM - 002067758981
Bossy Missy, girls, she's actually working today at work!!!
6/3/2009 3:37:35 PM - 002025703401
Hey, I'm working now! Gimme a few hours please..... :0)

The hotel is ________________

6/3/2009 2:48:02 PM - 000074469281
Hi Jamie, your new profile pic is great - you and your mom look great! With all this travel talk, makes me want to pack my bags and hit dodge. Have a great day!
6/3/2009 1:50:02 PM - 002029331419
Hey elPresidente....AHEM!!! I believe your called on to come up with a Texas Beach specific adventure! Don't you Lisa, Starla, Cheri, Barb, Joanne???...I don't have a complete listing..I think it's grown a Lot! yippee I love the Beach!
6/3/2009 12:41:17 PM - 001024320926
Jamie I've been to Corpus but not Port Aransas. I really want to go to Padre Island, heard it's very pretty there. Even my travel book talks about that :)
6/3/2009 11:30:43 AM - 002025703401
Lisa - Tag team Jean harrassment!!! I like it! :) I have Galveston on my Texas playlist...
6/3/2009 3:16:28 AM - 001024320926
That's what happened to me today.............work, sigh!!
Jean, Jamie promised but I didn't......Glen Campbell is great :) I saw him in concert just this past February! Someone gave me tickets for my birthday :) And yes mame Galvestion was one of his and a huge hit. That's my Glen, apple cheeked Glen :) He's in his 70's and still sounds great :) I am a lineman for the county..................:) :)
Sooo when is this trip to Galveston or just the beach in general :) I'm game. For sure the next time I drive down I'll let you know Jamie :) It would be a 'hoot' :) Jean you in, Jean, Jean, take those ear phones off and listen up............:) :)
6/3/2009 3:05:06 AM - 002025703401
I told you I wasn't going to pick on you about music for at least one day.... You, my dear, are trying me...... :) :)
I hate it when I have to work at work! :(
6/3/2009 2:47:07 AM - 002029331419
Jamie!! You mean you Worked at Work? aahh shucks girl!! I know that I hate when that happens! LOL! :0) No coaching your new Sfly co-workers, chatting with us, keeping your good eye on Linda ... man, that's tough!!! And it's only Tuesday!!
...now about Galveston ......... that's a Glen Campbell song isn't it?? ...and wasn't HE Country? :0)
6/3/2009 1:14:34 AM - 002025703401
Hey, you were talking about your suitcase on Sunday......
6/3/2009 12:56:56 AM - 002067758981
Jamie, please don't pack your bag yet.............girl, seems like days are flying, doesn't it?
6/3/2009 12:12:31 AM - 002025703401
Hi Guys, had another fun day at work and didn't have time to play.:( I can't believe the Alaska trip is finally getting close! I may have to get my suitcase out soon!!! :)
About time Lisa got those weekend pictures posted.... Love the pictures of baby girl in the surf! And I see Lisa is now proudly displaying her Travel Fever Club membership.... :)
6/3/2009 12:01:41 AM - 001024320926
I can't wait to get mine all planned. Still working on dates.
6/2/2009 11:34:57 PM - 002067758981

Soooo what is the travel fever club?
6/2/2009 3:32:05 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, I love your garden page. Beautiful flower, birds and garden ornaments. It is so peaceful too. And the music fits in like a hand and a glove. I love that page I always make my weekly visits there and find it like it gives off vibes of happiness and peace. Thanks for adding that page to you amazing site. have you been to CC boards lately? You should add your garden photos to the Non-cruise photo thread.
6/2/2009 2:24:09 PM - 002049843840
Guess what was in my mail tray this morning!! That's right my official " Travel Fever Club" certificate!! Thanks Jamie. I guess all the whining did pay off :):)
6/2/2009 12:48:06 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Visiting your site is like a daily vacation and can always turn a frown into a smile. Thanks for sharing all you travel pictures and the garden is a breath of fresh air. By the way this afternoon I hope to have a new movie clue up and running so stop by and take a guess. Catch you later...
6/2/2009 10:57:45 AM - 002067758981
New additions to in the garden are very nice........Little Missey, what's this certificate business that I somehow missed out on?

PS: Love the two new sites, nice job!! Jamie excellent recruiting!!!
6/2/2009 1:24:17 AM - 001024320926
Sorry Jamie :( Sorry for raising a ruckus (sp?) I was headed straight to the postmaster tomorrow to inquire after my certificate because I just knew I had to have one :) Panic set in before I could get the mail. I am the picture of calm at work but I'm at home right now so those walls are down :) I could have handled it at work...........I'm rambling but I just want you to know the panic was all me :) Better?
6/2/2009 1:10:52 AM - 002025703401
I work a little late and you guys talk about me.
I ended up ordering my drive online. Will be here in a couple of days. Think I will keep it at Mom's house (offsite storage), that way if the house burns down... Can you tell I'm incharge of this at work, but have been lacking at home.
Lisa, I am hurt that you thought I forgot you on the certificate.... :( Now, I'll have to make the girls in the office and Mom some....
Lisa is going to Vancouver. YAH!!!
Now, I have to go check out all the girl's sites. They asked me all day if I had looked (I do work every now and then). :)
One other update, Kay MAY go to a conference in Portland in Oct. Mom and I will have to go along. Keep you fingers crossed that she "has" to go! :) :)
6/2/2009 12:56:08 AM - 001024320926
Linda do you need a cetificate?? I mean aren't you on the board of execs :)
6/2/2009 12:55:01 AM - 001024320926
Retract!! Retract!! all previous statements!! My husband checked the mail and low and behold.....I got mail from the elPresidente!!!!! A certificate, that I will be having bronzed then framing the original for the Kimbel Art Museum. I would like to thank the elPresidente for my election into the Travel Fever Club :) this honor will not go wasted on me :) I will travel and report back to my fellow club members on each and every adventure!! I promise. Left hand on suitcase handle and right had over heart.....tissue in pocket for later :)
6/2/2009 12:43:12 AM - 002029331419
Hey Linda and Jamie! There's an itsy bitsy chance that my daughter's boyfriend might be able to get my pictures back for me. I'll know more later - so I'm using everyone else's computer but my own! :0( Back up ! Back up! I'm going to be so paranoid about reformating my camera cards and getting everything backed up - even onto Shutterfly! Anyone know how much space we get on there? Is that a question for the Guru's?
On a happier note - Jamie - So glad to see your freinds all over Sfly - I'll check out their sites..when I'm a bit more cheerful to be around - and I can really ejoy their sites! I'm sure they are going to be great! And you taught a class.....at work??? Niiice! :0)
6/2/2009 12:10:33 AM - 001024320926
Sniff, I just checked the mail................no certificate. Garsh! ok, I'll go back to my site.
PS: Linda, I'll be in Canada for 4 days. Two girls from the office are going for a meeting, I bought a plane ticket and am bumming a bed while they are there.
6/1/2009 11:41:28 PM - 002067758981
Canada, hey, that's something special.....how long will you be gone? fun or business? She will not answer us for a while.....going to Best Buy, I bet to get equipment to back up.
She'd better come up with good answer for not sending us a certificate, huh?
6/1/2009 11:31:56 PM - 001024320926
I guess I'm just not travel materail, sigh :( I tried really hard, I've even been going places every weekend here in Texas and I'm going to Canada in 24 days...................what does a gal have to do?
6/1/2009 11:23:18 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, I did not get certificate either.....what's up with that, you think?
6/1/2009 10:57:10 PM - 001024320926
Jamie, I had internet trouble this morning and couldn't leave comments, I was soooo frustrated. I see missed soooo much. Hey, what's all the talk about a certificate?? I didn't get a certificate, what's up? Am I really too heck to be involved in the traveling club? Sigh!
Galveston looks so good, I was so happy to see that so many places are rebuilding and Murdochs is being rebuilt too, right where it was!! I was thrilled. We rented one of those covered 4 seater bikes and drove all over the seawall, laughed our hinders off too!!! I spent the morning downloading the pictures, cropping and stuff like that. I took 300 pictures hopefully I'll like a few of them :)
Definitely get an external drive, I use the MY Book, bought it at Best Buy for 109 on sale. Love it!!
I'll check back later, Lisa :)
6/1/2009 8:45:00 PM - 002025703401
I backed up the picture files on DVD Memorial Day weekend... But, I just looked at an external drive for backups at Best Buy online. May have to make a run over there after work.
6/1/2009 8:32:38 PM - 002049843840
I have her working on that as we speak!
6/1/2009 8:12:28 PM - 002067758981
I just read.....terrible, you had better make sure all of ours are backed up somewhere.
6/1/2009 8:11:30 PM - 002067758981
Less than 78 days's
6/1/2009 7:31:26 PM - 002025703401
Mom read Jean's site. Her laptop crashed and she lost a lot of pictures that were not backed up!!! Really bad situation... :(
6/1/2009 7:24:30 PM - 002071887921
it has bitten me but good....hopefully by the end of the week, i should have my pics up also..so much fun !!!!!
6/1/2009 7:20:55 PM - 002067758981
OK, I missed something here........what happened to Jean's pictures? Hey Darla. you catch this bug too?
6/1/2009 6:57:48 PM - 002071887921
JAMIE.....THAT IS THE BLAKE SHELTON SONG!!!!!!!!!
6/1/2009 6:08:56 PM - 002025703401
Darla........ Don't Make Me!
Jean - Some Beach by Blake Shelton. I think it fits your situation! You do need a cruise to cure your blues... :)
6/1/2009 6:01:17 PM - 002071887921
kay, i really, really hope you get some good blackmail pics of jamie!!!!!! she owes you BIG time....
6/1/2009 5:38:03 PM - 002029331419
Thanks Jamie....See...I knew my job - was trying to do it - and some 'thing' got in the way! Could you recommend a sad sad ...really sad Hick, I mean Country song that I could add to my play list. I hear if you play Country songs back wards you get your dog, wife, truck & farm back. I want to play it backwards and get my pictures back!
I think the only cure for this....is a Cruise...and since I lost some of my favorite Lighthouse pictures...I think a New England cruise is the only cure! Don't you? And we'll throw in our 30th Anniversary in Aug too!
6/1/2009 5:02:57 PM - 002025703401
OMG, the other twin is online.... Yes, you are invited on the old lady trip!!! :)
6/1/2009 4:59:19 PM - 002071887921
so, i guess it's a private, members only, garden trip? did not see my name on that list. :) see also kim's site.
6/1/2009 3:29:43 PM - 000093706714
Jamie...........big hugs to you! I got my certificate in the mail this weekend and it genuinely brought a smile to my face! You definitely are the 'El Presidente' of our little travel team.
AND....I have decided to truly throw caution to the wind and book a trip for my DH and my 25 year anniversary! This unemployment thang has been weighing heavily on my mind but just can't let this milestone get by without celebrating. I am off to do the final review of my selected cruises and will be back to fill you in on the details.
Talk soon.............tick tock for you to Alaska!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, we are getting excited about our trip to Alaska. Final payment on the cruise is due June 8, so it is really here!!! I went to my mom's for Sunday lunch and we looked at clothes in her closets for our trip. Then, we went online and ordered even more... :) We do not travel lite...
6/1/2009 2:38:59 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Good morning and hope you are well. How was your weekend? My weekend was low key. Just took it easy and went to visit my mom for Sunday dinner. Every time I visit your site I look at you countdown clock. You must be getting excited..it is getting close. Looking forward to your new garden pictures. I shall visit again real soon. Have a wonderful day.
6/1/2009 2:35:44 PM - 002025703401
Thank you! I uploaded the garden pictures last night, will add to page tonight...
Oh, Marcia is jealous that Kim is way ahead of her in site building...
6/1/2009 1:01:08 PM - 002067758981
Like your Washington pictures...
6/1/2009 12:24:05 AM - 002025703401
That is great news Liz! The gang is very excited about you guys moving back! :)
5/31/2009 11:17:04 PM - 002067306785
Well, I just spent about an hour and a half looking at your amazing pics. I especially enjoyed the blackmail photos. They bring back a lot of memories. David has gotten transferred, and our house is up for sale. Hopefully will be back soon.
5/31/2009 2:34:48 PM - 002055694880
Hi Jamie! Thanks for coming by. My weekend has been busy with moving my grandma's furniture and going through stuff!! Man she has so much. I did that all day yesterday and I can barely move today. She has a two story condo in the city and getting all that heavy furniture down the stairs was rough! My arms are limp at my sides. It hurts to type :)
Music wise I think we do enjoy it. We may just hound Jean until she gets it right :) Chicken Fried is my two year olds favorite song. We get in the truck and she says 'I want Chicken Fry'! Starting 'em early. :) Hope the graduation went well. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. I think I am going to pull up a lawn chair and do NOTHIN!
5/30/2009 9:24:00 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, I am also glad that Cruise Critic lead us to Shutterfly. And I too have always wanted to share photos with family & friends both near and far. I look forward to your new pages can't wait to see you amazing photographs. Let me know when you co-workers/friends set up their sites. I will be glad to stop by and explore their sites too. Have a wonderful weekend.
5/30/2009 9:19:00 PM - 002067758981
Less than 80 days now!!!
5/30/2009 9:18:17 PM - 002067758981
Great idea after what I learned today....LOL
5/30/2009 7:43:07 PM - 002025703401
Hey Mom! Talked to Kay, she says we may need to stalk your brother's house with our camera's for blackmail photos. Also, need to buy your son some suspender for his birthday...
5/30/2009 5:11:24 PM - 002025703401
Thanks Joanne!!
Mom - Check out Kim's Alaska page! It is looking very good!!!
To everyone else, my friends, Kim and Marcia from work, are now building their own sites. Kim is the one who let me borrow an Alaska photo for my Alaska trip page. Check out the links in my Fans of Photography section...
5/30/2009 2:26:49 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Glad you liked the postcard. Have a wonderful time at the graduation party and your cookout. Tomatoes...I LOVE TOMATOES!!!! I always add them to my salads. Salads are not salads unless you have tomatoes in it. So have an amazing weekend and enjoy. I have no big plans just to visit my mom for Sunday dinner. Take care see you soon.
5/29/2009 11:57:24 PM - 002067758981
ok Marcia, part of your 'new' job is to try to get her in something.......bandaids or bounce?? We just have to wait, it'll happen!!! LOL
5/29/2009 9:08:10 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, What a lovely surprise I got when I opened my mailbox this afternoon. I received my "Official Travel Membership Certificate" How wonderful is that? Thanks for including me in the club. Jamie, Enjoy your weekend and thanks for always visiting my 2 sites.
5/29/2009 8:59:59 PM - 002071551455
Ok, I am bring my camera to work Monday. I bet I can catch her falling down the stairs at lunch. Watch for the update....
5/29/2009 8:41:13 PM - 002025703401
Lisa don't tell Mom that, she will want to cook it.... Have fun this weekend!!! :)
5/29/2009 8:28:01 PM - 001024320926
Linda I have a fish..........goldfish but it's technically a fish :)
5/29/2009 8:26:51 PM - 001024320926
I'm gone for a couple hours and look at all the banter :) I'm about to head out the door and wanted to say See Ya :) Hope ya'll have a great weekend :) I'm gonna miss all the antics :)
5/29/2009 8:00:15 PM - 002025703401
Mom - Kim has no fish to bribe you with.....
5/29/2009 7:51:49 PM - 002067758981
Huh oh, Kim, now who's cranky?
5/29/2009 6:28:12 PM - 002025703401
Who has my back???????? That's what I want to know......
5/29/2009 6:11:20 PM - 002067758981
That's the way I see it, Kim. I got your back, just let me know when you need something.
5/29/2009 4:47:30 PM - 002049843840
Us cranky, we are never cranky! I plan to catch up on my sleep this weekend. I know Jam will want us bright eyed and bushy tailed for month end next week.
Linda, thanks for taking up for Darla and I, we need someone watching our back around here!!! It's her fault for all the traveling we do, she sends us travel deals all time, we assume that is her approval to go go go.
5/29/2009 4:35:45 PM - 002025703401
Yeah tired and cranky....
5/29/2009 4:28:19 PM - 002067758981
Hey girls, stopped by to check on what going on................girls and I been working in flowers this morning.......Kim do not tease me with white perch..............Getting ready to look at your pictures. Tell Marsha I loved the puppy bouquet!!!! Jamie, you need to look at that.. Don't pick on Kim and Darla today either....they are still TIRED from all that traveling without us.
5/29/2009 3:18:52 PM - 001024320926
A quote for ya:
Travellers never think that they are the foreigners. ~Mason Cooley
5/29/2009 1:15:35 PM - 002055694880
I have been reading all the comments and I am holding my stomach. It hurts from laughing so much. I'm gonna have to run down the hall if it keeps on! :) I just wanted to drop in and wish you a wonderful weekend!
5/29/2009 1:04:07 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, How are you today? Hope all is well. I want to say Thanks a bunch for adding your amazing pictures to the Monument/Landscape Share a Photo game. The photos are beautiful. I appreciate your participation. What are your plans for the weekend? It's always good to see you visit my sites. I'll be by during the weekend. 81 Days and counting.....till your cruise. How exciting!!!
5/29/2009 4:07:25 AM - 001024320926
Holy Swiss Cheese Batman Ya'll are cracking me up.
Linda I thought of everything but a pail so thanks for the heads up :)
5/29/2009 2:17:23 AM - 002049843840
Sorry, operator error! Your mom will be offended!
Thanks for fixing me. I don't know what your talking about. Linda, do you need some more white perch? LOL
5/29/2009 2:15:19 AM - 002025703401
Kim - Rule #1 - Don't hit add over and over (MOM)!! I will fix.... :)
Rule #2 - Don't suck up to Mom. I get in enough trouble by myself...
5/29/2009 2:14:07 AM - 002049843840
Jamie is going to teach me the ropes and then turn me loose, a scary thought I know. She is so good at this kinda stuff.
5/29/2009 2:13:41 AM - 002067758981
Jamie Leigh, now you let Kim have her fun.......Fear of payback did not keep you from putting up a blackmail page!!
5/29/2009 1:52:03 AM - 002025703401
Hey Lisa - My grandmother couldn't swim but it didn't stop her from getting in a boat on Galveston Bay. The woman loved to fish.
Kimberly - Remember, payback is HELL!!! You know Kay said I was paying you and Darla too much money, because you travel too much.... :)
5/29/2009 1:48:27 AM - 002067758981
I can hardly wait to see your pictures, Kim. I loved that area and the flowers were so like our azelas(can't spell either) but with so many colors....it was so awesome. Good to know that you will soon have a site.
Lisa, there were a lot of people in the water this past week-end. It's supposed to be great weather!! You know that baby will want to get in the water, be sure to get her a sand pail if the water is dirty. If it's not good, the pool will have to do. You good grandmother you, I'm sure you've already thought of everything!!!!!
5/29/2009 1:37:30 AM - 001024320926
Jamie at least you're cruising with your mom :) that's way cool. I'm pretty sure I couldn't get my mom to step on a ship, she is terrified of water.
Love that the coworkers are hopping on to the site fun :) Let me know when she gets her site I'll definitely visit :)
My Granny is 90 and all the way up until she was in her 80's ahe would just take off be gone for several days and come back. She was never afraid to travel. Onry is what she is. She can't see well enought to drive now but she was a whippersnapper :)
Getting all my things together for the trip tomorrow, picked up Miss Kyleigh tonight :) she'll be going with us. Hope the water isn't to bad, might let her play depends on what it looks like. I wan to take them on a cruise so bad. But the Alaska cruise will have to be adults, I want to take Kyleigh and the boys to St. Thomas or something fun like that :)
Better get busy, I'll check in againt later :)
5/29/2009 1:27:28 AM - 002049843840
Hey Jam, just wanted you to know that I am watching now and will report to other co-workers if anything of interest pops up, so share away Linda and Kay :) Linda, Jamie is going to help me get a sight going so you can see our pics too. The rhoddies were beautiful the weekend, ya'll will be so jealous when you see the pictures.
5/28/2009 9:29:02 PM - 002025703401
Yeah, one time we were going to South Carolina and my Grandmother told my uncle that we may end up in California... Ma was never in charge of the map! Mom is almost as bad... :) Ma would have loved cruising. We were always afraid of sea sickness and never tried cruising until after she passed away. We may never have gotten her off the ship...
5/28/2009 9:17:01 PM - 002067758981
And yes, my middle name is GO....got that from my Mom......so Jamie gets it honestly!! My Mom was worst than me about not knowing where she was on the map. She always wanted to make a BIG loop as she called it. Jamie and I loved it and the three of us took off every chance we had.....wish we could do it all again. Never got her on a cruise.....she would have loved it. Lot of good memories(spelled wrong?) for us.
5/28/2009 8:51:41 PM - 001024320926
I know you will Linda :) you're what I call a go-getter :) I am the oldest of six kids and sometimes we don't claim each other :) Let something happen though and we're all over it. It's chaos at the Thanksgiving table every year.
Jamie I think I might head over to Academy on my way home, there's one in Mesquite. Check out there boots!! I'll let ya know if I buy any.
I loved the seawall and I'm very anxious to see how things are looking. The pier that we fished off of, the phones numbers aren't working for them so I'm not sure they're even there anymore. We'll see come Saturday for sure. We won't get there til late Friday night.
So you liked the George I added, me too and I'm glad you pointed it out :) I was, back in the day, a huge Garth Brooks fan. Saw him at Billy Bob's he walked out onto our table and stood just inches from me - 1990. I saw him in concert three more times after that, he was something else.
5/28/2009 7:58:07 PM - 002067758981
Lisa, I am going to try my best to keep up with those two girls....they have been very good about getting tired and needing to rest..............probably because I need it. I'll make it!!!Just ask anyone who knows me....I'm KINDA hardheaded!! If I deceide to do something, it ussally gets done.
Hope you find some BOOTS, I know that you will have a great time. My friends youngest son lives in Galveston, they say seawall is back and running but some of the Strand may not come back. Hope he is wrong. Can't wait to see your pictures, we haven't been across bay to Galveston yet.
5/28/2009 7:09:31 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, The Monuments & Landscape share a photo is on my Gallery site. On the Fun & Games page. Please feel free to share. Hope all is well and I'll visit again before the weekend. take care my friend.
5/28/2009 6:44:08 PM - 002025703401
Every southern family is the same.... We laugh, pick, EAT, and laugh, pick, and eat some more... We all have crazy "Bubba's", grandmothers that push food, and other relatives you hate to claim... Is this not a true fact? :) Dad was an only child but Mom had 3 brothers, so we have a loud famiy...
Do you have Academy Sporting Goods in your area? They are all over the Houston area. As a matter of fact, there was one on the seawall in Galveston... I think you need to pickup some boots this weekend!!! :)
Oh, the salt air in Galveston will help that sinus infection. :)
5/28/2009 6:33:19 PM - 001024320926
I looked at eacha nd every picture on the Blackmail page :) :) Those pictures could easily have come from my family and I love it!!! I smile and laugh the whole time I'm in there :)
5/28/2009 5:30:00 PM - 001024320926
Ok Jamie I added a little bit of George to the home page and the Texas page :)
I sure hope she can do the hike too, she'll be in a beautiful place so I bet she'll summon the strength and she has ya'll to help her :) Can't wait to see the pictures!!
I gots to get me some of those boots!! I've been wanting a pair for walking around looking for birds. I just didn't realize I could look so hip doing it :)
5/28/2009 5:10:52 PM - 000093706714
Jamie.......Got a case of the blahs and am trying to keep it localized! hehehehe Today I visited your Puget Sound 2008 page. I love, love, love, love that little birdie singing and welcoming spring! You have TONS of great shots on that page........really enjoyed viewing!
Cheri
P.S. Be good! .........................NOT!
5/28/2009 3:11:09 PM - 002025703401
Mom wants to go, but her arthritis in her knee and the replacement knee limit her physical activites. We are hoping she will be able to hike a short trail to the base of a glacier with us in Alaska.
5/28/2009 2:12:42 PM - 001024320926
I'm starting to notice a trend with your Mom.................she wants to go every where she sees a picture of :) Her middle name has to be GO!! But I think that's cool as ever :)
5/28/2009 1:58:15 PM - 002025703401
Mom's middle name is GO
5/28/2009 11:53:34 AM - 002067758981
Ol is good if it looks and sings like George!!! Hubby ok with us being fans, he just shakes his head at us, probably would not hear it if we said George was hot anyway...LOL I know Jean will come back with great pictures. Jamie, I want to go to New Mexico sometimes......
5/28/2009 3:51:18 AM - 002029331419
You Guys!!!!!!!!!! I woudn't take off without saying Bye!! Bye!!!!
JK! We're leaving in the morning - I just had a really busy afternoon/evening!
Linda - we have a 20 ft trailer that is totally self contained and we camp up in the Mountains of New Mexico. We'll be gone Thur - Sun. Kind of the same place as the pictures on my Home Page. And I'd take some cucumbers too! yum!... :0) Do you have a Farmer's Market...or does everyone grow their own?

Ok, gotta get off and get my clothes packed for tomorrow! Take care Girlies...Catch ya on Sunday afternoon!
5/28/2009 2:32:44 AM - 002025703401
That's weird... it went back to the old pictures.... I will try to fix it. Mom is (desperately) pushing cukes. I have a huge bag to take the ladies in the office.
Jean left us without saying bye? :0( Fine...
Update: I fixed the picture problem. Don't know what happened.
5/28/2009 2:26:25 AM - 001024320926
Jamie you changed your profile picture again?! So did Linda. What's up with that?
5/28/2009 2:26:02 AM - 001024320926
Jean went camping!! I know that she's going to have fun and all but she left us Jamie, sigh!! Wait just like you did last weekend!!! Oh but I am leaving for Galveston on Friday :) Soooo I guess it'll all work out!!
5/28/2009 2:23:49 AM - 001024320926
Oh how I love cucumbers!! Yum!! Hilarious!! She said it so your Dad couldn't hear, LOL!! Linda you can say it in front of Texas men they already know that he's king and all other Texas men are second!! :):):):) It's one of those facts like gravity or something.
5/28/2009 2:17:46 AM - 002067758981
Still great, isn't he? Oh good, Lisa, George is always good..............thanks Jamie for coming to haul off the cucumbers. Hope the gals and guys at Kinsel enjoy them. More to come tomorrow:)
5/28/2009 1:55:13 AM - 002025703401
Hey Lisa - Had to make a quick run to Mom's (listened to George on the radio there and back)! I told Mom, "You know he's still ...." she finished my sentence, "HOT" (where my Dad couldn't see). :) :)
5/28/2009 1:29:39 AM - 001024320926
Just for you tomorrow I will add some of my fav George songs :)
5/28/2009 12:24:35 AM - 002025703401
Jean had to prepare for George, she is glued to her TV right now!!! :)
5/27/2009 11:34:28 PM - 002067758981
Where's Jean? What did Lisa and Jamie do to Jean? Did you two girls bump her off this site again or is she in front of TV waiting for George?
5/27/2009 11:15:08 PM - 001024320926
Jamie help I already miss Jean :(
5/27/2009 10:37:15 PM - 001024320926

5/27/2009 5:32:31 PM - 002067758981

Linda!! Dancing with Elvis in Vegas :) :) I'm not sure you know this but he's my real dad. Yes, it's true, my real dad :)
5/27/2009 4:14:24 PM - 001024320926
Jean, 4000 words!! now that's a 1000 more than when you got me :)
5/27/2009 4:13:47 PM - 001024320926
Jamie that's a real shame that the word of mouth about your picture made it all the way to work..........................not!! Maybe the ad they took out in the paper helped things along, oops, I wasn't supposed to mention that!! LOL!! :) :) I think you should be proud of the picture :) :) those boots look are groovy man :)
5/27/2009 4:05:47 PM - 002029331419
Linda, Thanks for coming by my Alaska page! Come by anytime!
5/27/2009 4:04:52 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie...really nice Pics of Colorado - one of my favorite areas...even though I haven't been up that far in a long time! We might get something together around the Pagosa Springs or Durango area this summer - it would be fun! The 2 pics of you 3, are really great pictures! And those leaves...now that's yellow! Nice page addition! My Grandparents and Aunt & Uncle spent a lot of time around the Salida area - you can see it on your map!
5/27/2009 2:51:14 PM - 002067758981
LOVE new pics.................love the fall in Colorado.......but then I love it anytime!!!!!
5/27/2009 2:48:14 PM - 002067758981
Did she tell you that she got an e-mail to check the blackmail page? hehehehe
5/27/2009 2:11:59 PM - 002025703401
Oh, she did!!! When I walked in the door this morning, Marcia was asking about my boot picture...
5/27/2009 2:02:49 PM - 002029331419
Lisa!!! You bumped me! I had 4,000 words written!
5/27/2009 2:02:23 PM - 001024320926
LOL!!! I hope she did!!
5/27/2009 1:55:36 PM - 002025703401
Mother - Did you have to email Marcia about the boots???
5/27/2009 11:54:00 AM - 002025703401
I have added the Colorado 2003 page... :)
5/27/2009 1:18:36 AM - 002025703401
Rosie (our GPS) would explode with Mom behind the wheel....
5/27/2009 1:16:17 AM - 002067758981
Now wait a minute..........................who says I would even want to. I could drive it but who knows where we would be.
5/27/2009 1:13:07 AM - 002025703401
OMG that's true. Kay, can you imagine Mom making air reservations.... :0) or driving the rental car??? :0) ;) LOL
5/27/2009 1:11:20 AM - 002067758981
Me too...............there's no telling where we would end up and you know it!!!
5/27/2009 1:10:40 AM - 002071401838
But you do such a good job. I'd probably mess it up. (That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!)
5/27/2009 1:05:28 AM - 002025703401
What if I made you guys each plan one of the trips???
5/27/2009 1:04:39 AM - 002067758981
Yep, you know you would not like anyone else planning it for us!!!
5/27/2009 1:00:53 AM - 002025703401
You're right! Can you believe I just admitted that!!! :)
5/27/2009 12:59:12 AM - 002071401838
But if we didn't go with you, you wouldn't get to have fun planning the trips...
5/27/2009 12:56:22 AM - 002025703401
And to think I planned vacations for the next four years with these people last weekend... I know, we are anal planning fools!!!
2009 - Alaska
2010 - New England - Canada Cruise / New York City
2011 - Northern California / Napa Valley / Redwoods
2012 - Hawaii Cruise
We have travel fever...... BAD!
5/27/2009 12:52:14 AM - 002025703401
Mother!
5/27/2009 12:51:44 AM - 002067758981
Do you think I would not call Marsha tomorrow? No, not me!!!
5/27/2009 12:43:25 AM - 002025703401
I hope no one from work sees those pictures!

You would not know it from just reading these comments from these two girls but they have true friends for years.....................watch out Kay. Sure, I told you to post picture, just look what she did to us first!!!
5/27/2009 12:36:39 AM - 001024320926
Jamie, Kay can't help it cause she's weak!! Jean, Linda and I love that she's weak!! Love the picture :) You are on your way to setting a new trend Missy :)
5/27/2009 12:35:13 AM - 001024320926

5/27/2009 12:32:31 AM - 001024320926
OMGarsh Jean just bumped my three thousand word comment!!!
5/27/2009 12:31:56 AM - 002029331419
Hey you cute boot scootin girly Jamie!! Them are cute boots!! Lands end shows all of the cute patterns and I've always wondered...where would someone wear them!?! And...now I know! You guys are just too cute...ya know that!?! Hey Kay!! My Daughter's name is Kay! :0)
And I have my Travel Fever Club Certificate!! Now that was a fun piece of Mail!! Jamie!! Thanks for doing that! Too Fun!
Linda, Lady...psssssst, come here shhhh.... Jamie was feeding you cards! just so you know. :0)
Ok, girlies...later!! before I get bumped off!
5/27/2009 12:26:38 AM - 002071401838
Is that any way to treat your friend who helped clean up after the hurricane???
Gina was the one who spotted you in your boots and told me to get the camera. I have proof (email from Linda) asking to post the photo. I'm just an innocent victim of peer pressure!!!
5/26/2009 10:53:35 PM - 002025703401
Kay is dead meat.... I let her have access to my site and this is what I get... :0) I bet Gina is involved in this too. This is WAR!!!
I was feeding Mom the cards to finish the game, not to let her win.... :)
Now Kay has thrown Gina and Mom under the bus... Gina "made" her take the picture and Linda "made" her post it... This is mutiny against their "travel agent"!!!
Have added a payback photo of Kay on the blackmail page. May need to add one on Gina and Mom...
5/26/2009 10:44:57 PM - 002071401838
OK...This is Kay. I'm working on adding the infamous boot picture. Check the blackmail page in a few minutes.
5/26/2009 10:06:45 PM - 001024320926
Thanks Jamie :) I had fun taking those pictures and I plan to continue my exploring quest :)
Jean I think you're right Jamie if you posted the picture then you would have the upper hand. Kay will do the right thing.................and post the picture :)
LOL!!!! over the card game :) she was feeding you the cards Linda and she still won!! LOL!! Ya'll crack me up!!
Linda thanks for stopping by too :) Makes my day :)
I've got a big ol headache today, need to get home. Lisa
5/26/2009 9:58:15 PM - 002067758981
OGM!! Less than 84 days.
5/26/2009 8:55:44 PM - 002067758981
A whole lot of it going on 23 minutes ago too. I will remember this and I'm sure Kay and Gina are reading this and will make you pay by making you play many times before you'll be allowed to forget.
5/26/2009 8:32:36 PM - 002025703401
Mom didn't even realize I was feeding her cards the last game so I could go to bed (and I still won)! :0) Told ya lots of trash talk!!!
I don't have that picture, Kay does. But I do have some pictures from the first trip down after Ike. Kay is in her boots too. Don't make me get it out!!! :)
5/26/2009 7:58:03 PM - 002067758981
Yeah Jamie, post the picture....show everyone how cute you were in shorts and leopard rubber boots. And yes, her and Kay did each win a game................I think I could have won the next one.............LOL
5/26/2009 7:36:26 PM - 002029331419
Now about those boots............!?!?! Ya know Jamie, IF YOU posted the Picture you would have that upper hand of (my favorite) CROP tool and you could keep it toned down a bit! Ya know this is a family friendly site! LOL!!
5/26/2009 6:36:03 PM - 002025703401
Lisa - Your weekend pictures turned out great!!! :)
5/26/2009 6:17:05 PM - 001024320926
Sounds like a great game :) We play a few card games and we get down right onry about it at times :) That's half the fun :)
I posted the pictures from my adventures this weekend :) The home page has where tofind everything. Hope you enjoy :)
I'll be back later, used all my lunch updated the site :)
Lisa
5/26/2009 3:51:47 PM - 002025703401
We play a card game called Liverpool Rummy. A friend of my grandmother's taught it to us when I was a kid. My family and friends play every chance we can get together. It is a loud, cut-throat game (at least our version is)... :) Mom told me to add there is some cheating also....
5/26/2009 3:48:02 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Hope you weekend was Fabulous and fun. Love your new profile picture. very nice. Just wanted to let you know I have new photos posted from this past weekend on my Gallery site.

Ok, I'm jumping in here! Hey Guys! Everyone went somewhere..except me! Well, I did go to the baseball game - some funny pics there that I'll get up soon! I really like the NEW pictures of Linda and Jamie!! Gosh, has anyone told you that you guys look like your related?! LOL!!
And...That is a Good Thing!! :0)
So Glad you guys enjoyed your time - and RELAXED! What kind of card games did you play?
I'm really happy to hear that there is progress going on - where such damage has been! And I want to see the wildflowers too! And Leopard Boots!!! Now,Linda, Kay and Gina...when are your sites going to be up???
Happy Tuesday! :0)
5/26/2009 2:03:18 PM - 002025703401
Kay and Gina are my BESTEST friends and would NEVER post that picture of me... I hope!!! :) I am also their personal travel agent and if they want to continue traveling...
5/26/2009 1:47:48 PM - 002055694880
Hi Jamie. Dropping a quick note. I hope you had a fantastic weekend. Camping was great for us even if the lake was up 10 feet!!!
5/26/2009 1:14:55 PM - 001024320926
Love the new profile pictures ;) and Linda I hope Kay uses the picture too:) Very glad ya'll had a good time :)
5/26/2009 10:58:59 AM - 002067758981
Hey Jamie, thanks for the picture change.............Hope Kay uses her blackmail picture of you.
5/26/2009 10:57:07 AM - 002067758981
I love it when all our girls come down. Everyone de-stresses. That is what that house means to everyone. Great food, great company, great time, even if we have mostly dirt covering the 2 lots and we are beginning to see such progress....even the two pups enjoyed the time together. They had two more people loving on them. Hope everyone had a great long week-end too!!!
5/26/2009 2:32:03 AM - 001024320926
Jamie that would have been way cool, this will not be our only trip so maybe next time. Sure hope you took pictures of the flowers, a little message from God that things are going to be ok :)
Gina, Kay, I've got five dollars to send your way for a picture of some leopard print rubber boots, it's ok if they just happen to be on Jamie's feet :) :) Man I really wanna see that picture, too funny :) I love that Linda, Jean and I have caused this kind of mayhem :) :)
My travel fever took me to downtown Dallas, Las Colinas, Laureland and Gainesville. I took 244 pictures in three days and think I have a few keepers :) I haven't even scratched the surface of Dallas :) So excited to be exploring :) Who knew that all I needed was a bad case of travel fever to motivate me :)
Glad your back and had a good time :)
Lisa
5/26/2009 2:04:59 AM - 002025703401
Hi Guys! We had a fun time with my friends Gina and Kay. I have to be nice to them because I found out they are reading these posts and Kay has a photo of me in my leopard print rubber boots... Kay and I beat Gina and Mom at cards all weekend.
With all the destruction and dead vegetation on the Peninsula, large areas of wildflowers are suddenly blooming. We have never seen flowers like that before...
Lisa - I am glad you favorite hotel is still there. We would come meet you next weekend, but have to be in Beaumont Saturday afternoon for my cousin's graduation party.
5/25/2009 1:15:29 AM - 001024320926
Jamie, I was so excoted that I had to stop by and tell you the news. My favorite motel in Surfside is open, has been since January according to them. I looked for them online and found out they're still there. I think that's were we'll end up staying this next weeking :) Very excited to see the area. Maybe drive down to Galveston, the seawall at least :) Hope you're having a great weekend.
Lisa :)
5/24/2009 3:10:41 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Making a quick visit before I head out to church. hope you weekend so far is wonderful. First I would like to invite you to add your photos to my Share a Photo(s) game. this month the topic is Monuments and Landscapes. So feel free to share. Yesterday Victoria and I played "Tourist in NYC". Went to Rockefeller center and the Top of the Rock. hope to have some pictures added in a few days. www.topoftherocknyc.com
Enjoy the weekend...God bless America and the military men & women. catch you later.
5/23/2009 12:06:52 AM - 001023411097
Hi Jamie, Hope you weekend is so goooooood! We are having my boys and their families. They will be arriving in a few minutes. Have a Great Memorial Day and that pictures. Come post your photos on my shutterfly friends page. I love to read the the messages from you guys below! bj
5/22/2009 10:37:42 PM - 002029331419
Hey Lisa...nice bump! Good thing I only had 2 words typed! Ha!
Jame & Linda, I sure hop you guys have a good time together! I'm soo sorry to hear of all of the distruction along the coast. I knew of it, just not anyone directly invovled. :0(
We don't have hurricans - our disaters are fires, tornados and snow storms - but loss of possesions and homes are still so sad and costly! Looking forward to hearing back from you on Monday! I think our baseball game may be rained out tonight! Aargh!
Be safe!
5/22/2009 10:31:55 PM - 001024320926
You too Jamie!!!
5/22/2009 9:31:27 PM - 002025703401
Couldn't find Cedar Ridge on the map.
I'm taking off early (for me)... Grocery store, then about a hour drive to beach house. No internet, so I'll talk to you guys on Monday evening. Have a happy and safe Memorial Day!!! :) Jamie
5/22/2009 9:01:29 PM - 001024320926
Jamie I saw pictures of what use to be Surfside awhile back and it was horrible, mostly just not there. Bummer!
Today has been a ______ fill in the blank! I am trying to get stuff done for the weekend and they bring me more and then more. One step forward and six back. Deep breath and take a share site break, now I'll be better :)
I have a friend from high school in Cedar Ridge? I think that's the name. Have you heard of that town? She says she's down around that area. No sure. They are going to France and then traveling by train thru Germany soon. That's going to be an amazing trip!!
5/22/2009 6:32:37 PM - 002025703401
Lisa - I just looked Surfside up on the map (could not remember). My dad, before he retired, worked a construction job in Freeport. We spent a couple of weeks there after Hurricane Rita. I bet Surfside is a mess...
5/22/2009 6:12:42 PM - 002025703401
I thought maybe you were fishing too!!! Your like my mom, waits at home with the frying pan... :0)
5/22/2009 5:37:19 PM - 000074469281
Have a fabulous weekend Jamie!
5/22/2009 5:13:19 PM - 001024320926
Don't get me to guessing. I'm not sure but that's where he meets his guide, David. I won't go out in the little boats so I've never been when he goes. I always stay in the hotel and then go out onto the beach but that was back when we stayed in Surfside. Not sure what he has planned this time. I can find out more from him tonight.
5/22/2009 4:49:19 PM - 002025703401
Lisa - Where is Randy going fishing in Texas City?
5/22/2009 4:32:10 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, On my way out since we are having a perfect day this fine Friday. Don't know if I'll get a chance to come back to visit later or tomorrow so I did want to wish you & your family a Happy memorial day weekend. Enjoy, have fun and be safe. I'll have to explore your site next week and of course make my visit you your garden page....which is AWESOME!!!!
God bless you and I'll visit real soon.
5/22/2009 4:06:37 PM - 001024320926
I felt the same and I don't have anything there except the love of the area. I hope it all gets rebuilt but I can only imagine the termendous undertaking that is for many. Some of those little towns didn't have the economy to withstand such devastation. We are supposed to be going to Texas City next weekend, Randy is going out into the coast for fishing. I'm anixious to see the area.
5/22/2009 3:43:15 AM - 002025703401
We haven't been to Galveston since the storm. Crystal Beach is located on Bolivar Pennisula (ferry ride across Galveston Bay from Galveston). Bolivar Peninsula was over ran by the storm surge. The town of Gilchrist is gone, maybe 2 or 3 houses were left. Our house is on the bay side of Hwy 87 and a bit higher than our neighbors. The high water mark on a beam under the house was 8 1/2 feet. The storm surge missed our secord floor (the main floor) by a foot. I work with 5 people who's houses were completely destoyed, nothing left. Many of our neighbors had feet of mud in theirs. Our yard is still covered in a think marsh mud and just about every plant has died from the salt water. It is very depressing but everyone is trying to rebuild. I have a page planned called "Mother Nature", gonna get to it eventually...
We were so lucky compared to everyone else that we feel guilty...
5/22/2009 2:33:35 AM - 001024320926
Love my memory cards but I do end up emptying them and storing on CD and a 1 tb hard drive, plus in shutterfly and one other online joint thru adobe. I always check, check, double, check and triple check that I have everything stored. I am buying DVD's after this batch of CD's runs out and then I'll convert those one at a time later.
Jamie I was wondering do you like crab? Because there's gonna be alot of crab on your trip to Alaska aka crab country. It sure would be a good thing if you liked crab because crab is plentiful there. I'm just saying you might want to check into the crab :)
I want to see some Eagles so bad. There's a lake near here that in Feb they have an Eagle sight seeing tour, Eagles every where. We had planned to go but I spent most of Feb. sick :( I'm definitely going next year.
Hurricane Ike was a bummer for the whole state of Texas. I love Galveston and it was destroyed, Surfside, I heard, doesn't even exist any more. Man I hope that's not true. I cried when it happened, then when I saw all the footage and all those homes were just gone I cried even harder. One of my favorites things was the Balinese Room and the Gift Shop 'Blue Mermaid?' near it. I loved those places. I feel bad for ya'll Jamie it had to have been rough.
Better run for now, Lisa :)
5/21/2009 10:34:40 PM - 002025703401
My 15 to 20 minutes on IH10 looks good compared to Lisa's drive.
I have my pictures on my laptop, Mom's, my work computer, and I usually make 2 cd's. But, I just bought a tower of dvd's (100) at Sam's last night. I'm gonna redo all my backup's this weekend while everyone else has afternoon nap time. There is something about the salt air that makes you sleep and eat more... :) The forcast is calling for rain, so that will only increase the napping time... :)
I have (are you ready for this) 8 4GB memory cards. Mom has a couple 2GB cards. Since she has started taking a lot of pictures, think I need to get her a couple more.
Salmon - Yes we are hopefully going to see the salmon running. Also looking for bears and eagles...
We are also going to eat CRAB, halibut, CRAB, salmon, CRAB. Do you know crab is one of my favorite foods????
Drive carefully everyone, I'm off to Sears to get a new grill for the beach house. Our old one was washed away by Ike. :0)
5/21/2009 10:09:28 PM - 002029331419
Jamie!..have you erased the memory cards from your trips? All of them? I had 2 for Scotland and I just cannot bring my self to -re-format them! Seriously! I just can't! Don't you think they make for good storage for such things that you'll only see that exact scene, only once? - What other back up do you use? Every so often there are specials that come up - I'll keep an eye out for them - that you buy 3 cards and then get a rebate - they come out to like 7.00 ea! The only day that really wasn't picture perfect was when we went to Hubbard Glacier - rainy, and tons of ice in the water, the Capt wouldn't get to far in, not wanting a Titanic experience! :0) Oh! and your going to be there when the Salmon are running...right?
Lisa - Drive careful girl! That's a lot of Highway miles!
5/21/2009 9:55:32 PM - 001024320926
Definitely buy more memory cards!!!! I would :)
I drive an hour to and from work, more if I'm on call......I don't like it much anymore!!
I'm hitting the road home right now to pick up Kyleigh :), I'll talk with ya'll later tonight.
Linda, Jamie and Jean keep the convo lively so I'll have some chuckles when I log back on :)
5/21/2009 9:20:50 PM - 002025703401
I may need to buy more memory cards....
5/21/2009 9:08:23 PM - 002067758981
I can hardly wait....want to pack now!!
5/21/2009 8:32:32 PM - 002029331419
Oh oh... and Linda..The Lily's are Beautiful! And the butterflies, And the birds, and the Roses and...yeah, I like the whole page!
And - Alaska had some of the biggest beautiful bushes with flowers on them - Ketchikan had so much color! Your going to love it!
5/21/2009 8:30:19 PM - 002029331419
Lisa, If I'm in the fast lane, that's because I'm doing the fast speed limit! It's the folks out for a Sunday drive on Tuesday morning that keeps things interesting! And then there's all of the wildlife that tends to crawl up on the roads - crunch, thump, whack, snap! OY!
FF Hot Dog? What's it made out of? - I can do the chili, mustard and onion. Doesn't matter...I think it's just fabulous the weight you've lost and just want to say to keep the goal - you'll get there!
I'm a walker! I cannot seem to do it in the morning - so it's the evening for me. The temps finally start to drop and won't burn my doggy's paws!! But, it's so good for you!
5/21/2009 8:00:08 PM - 002067758981
Hey, I keep telling her not to lean into my pictures................trying to get a good back ground for picture..................on one cruise, I swear she was leanning over the rail.....lol
5/21/2009 7:39:07 PM - 002025703401
I am not a morning person, but I'm making myself walk before work. Like you, when I get home from work I'm worn out. I may drag into work at 8:30 but find myself leaving at 6:30 or 7:00 each evening. :0)
How far do you drive to work?
5/21/2009 7:31:34 PM - 001024320926
Jean if you're doing 60 in the fast lane then you are asking for it. I got a lot of highway to cover to and from work, I'm not on any sight seeing tour :) :) I didn't know how bad Texans were til I moved to Nebraska :) :)
5/21/2009 7:29:27 PM - 001024320926
Jamie I love hot dogs, love them and I eat them with wheat buns already :) pass the carrots please :) Exercise is my real problem or excuse me the lack of it. So I started walking again :) It always makes me feel better but sometimes when I get home from work I am worn the heck out. It's a vicious cycle.
LOL!!! over the coat and profile picture exchange :) :) Hilarious!! Have you posted any of the pictures your mom has cut your off in :) I do, now that you mention it notice the lean into the photo on your profile :) :) Toooo funny!!
5/21/2009 6:11:20 PM - 002025703401
I have her address here at work. Will add it and send her a link. :)
5/21/2009 6:02:13 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, I want Sandy to be able to look at your pictures, do you have to send the site to her or can she pull up from e-mail site?
5/21/2009 5:48:39 PM - 002025703401
Diet hotdogs = Fat Free Weiner, FF Cheese, Turkey Chili, Mustard, Onion, and a Whole Wheat Bun. Not bad, I've even got my dad eating them....
Then there is what we call Diet Tacos.....
5/21/2009 4:39:14 PM - 002029331419
Sfly seems to be having some problems today!
5/21/2009 4:33:54 PM - 002067758981
sorry hit send three times......computer too slow.......lol
5/21/2009 4:31:58 PM - 002067758981
You'd think if you had a daughter that stayed on computer and had access to all of our pictures would do something about this problem..........................lol
5/21/2009 4:27:43 PM - 002029331419
LOL!!! The Coats!!! LOL!! Too funny!
And Missy...something that you forgot...I used to have a TX drivers license too! So I know Texans are nuts! I used to watch them try and drive in Colorado when I grew up there - and they come here in the summer for the cooler temps and you should see some of them up and down our freeways! My hard earned $$ went to a college for 4 years in - TEXAS - which I put many a miles on my car moving my daughter back and forth! LOL! You are NUTS! That wasn't smack talking...it's the facts Ma'am! :0) Ha!
Your Mom said she's grilling steaks - it's going to be a great weekend! Diet hotdogs? Never heard of them! - oh are those turkey dogs?
5/21/2009 4:18:33 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Exploring your site a page at a time. The Oregon 2006 is FABULOUS!!!!! I will be taking a second look, and a third, and so on. Such a beautiful place to visit. Love every single picture. Thanks for adding them to the site. Let me explore some more.
Catch you later my friend.
5/21/2009 4:08:35 PM - 002025703401
Mom - Duh! You have one on too!!! The only pictures I have of me since I lost weight are of me and you in Brenham. Maybe Kay has one. She is bring her camera this weekend for me to upload her stuff.
5/21/2009 4:07:46 PM - 002067758981
Update that picture, girl.....you're making me hot with the coat on!!!!!
5/21/2009 4:06:04 PM - 002025703401
Yeah, I'm on a first name basis with the girls behind the counter at Subway. We eat lunch there three days a week.... Tuesdays and Thrusdays - I get mexican or chinese. Do you know how hard it is watching everyone else eat chips and salsa????
5/21/2009 3:41:50 PM - 001024320926
Fried, grilled, it all sounds good this morning. Woohoo!! I know you might be tried after your trip of a life time to Alaska but it would be pretty neat if you made up here for the balloons :) Love it!! I'm sneaking around to sites this morning, should be working, plenty of it sitting on my desk anyway :) Sounds like you're gonna have a great weekend and Linda maybe you can catch the bagging pants picture you were hoping for :) You have to be sneaky :) because my guess is Jamie is one sharp character.
Jamie I'm exploring in Dallas, Los Colinas and Ft. Worth this weekend, woohoo can't wait. Who knows what I'm gonna get a picture of :)
Lisa
PS: All the freaking weight loss going on has inspired me to do the same!! Thanks alot Jamie!!
5/21/2009 3:34:45 PM - 002067758981
Not this time.................remember you are dieting.......grilled steak, squash, cucumbers, & zukes!!! Grilled chicken and more veggies and no mac & cheese. Diet hotdogs................mmmmmmmmmmmm good!!!
5/21/2009 3:19:02 PM - 002025703401
"Healthy Food" - Yea right!!! Fried shrimp, fried fish, fried....
5/21/2009 3:16:18 PM - 002067758981
We always have a lot of fun, lots of healthy food, play card games and hope to beat the pants off Jamie......lol
Will have camera ready just in case.

The flowers are mine, my mom's (Linda), and my cousin's (Maureen - lives across the street from Mom). Now that Mom and Maureen have retired, they spend a lot of time in their flower gardens. My flowers have to do or die on their own....
We are headed to the beach this weekend. Crystal Beach is still quite depressing with all the damage from Hurricane Ike. We are going to do some more work on the house and yard. My friends Gina and Kay are coming down Saturday afternoon to spend the rest of the weekend with us. So, we will have some laughs too!!!

Hi Jamie! Dropping by for a quick peek. In the Garden is a fantastic page. Do you have all those flowers at your house or are those photos taken in different places? Some of those flowers are absolutley gorgeous! Hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend. We are headed to Texoma (there is one part that is not flooded!) for a camping trip. It's gonna be fun. Have a great one!
5/21/2009 12:33:04 PM - 001024320926
Checked out the garden and it looks lovely, a nice place to sit a spell :)
5/21/2009 11:51:26 AM - 002067758981
Good additions to garden page, Jamie!!! I love the whole idea that they are our flowers
5/21/2009 3:12:03 AM - 002025703401
Lisa - You don't need a travel agent... :)
I have added 2 of Mom's butterfly pictures and several others I took over the weekend to the bottom of the In The Garden page.
5/21/2009 2:30:03 AM - 001024320926
I just need to print out your Alaska 2009 page and give to a travel agent, it's awesome and I hope you have the time of your life!!!
5/20/2009 11:27:09 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, If you do come to NYC I'll be glad to meet up and spend some time. But for me to travel on my own is at this time difficult. But I'll keep an eye open for your travel fever kit in the mail. UM, what could it be? Now that you have some more pages complete, I think I'll explore you site. Talk to you tomorrow.
5/20/2009 10:46:20 PM - 002025703401
Yup, that is why Washington needs to be at the top of the list....
5/20/2009 10:43:05 PM - 001024320926
I love the pictures too. Audie Murphy, wow! Wasn't he born in Tioga, Texas? Next time I go to my Mom's I'll look, they have a big ol sign :) Pictures!!
I wan tto see Washington pretty bad and the cemetery is one of the reasons.
Wait, no I think Gene Autry was born in Tioga. Still gonna look though.
5/20/2009 10:40:43 PM - 002025703401
See all good things come from DQ...
The Memorial Day pictures are from our trip to DC.
5/20/2009 10:39:19 PM - 001024320926
Worked at DQ all the way thru high school and after I moved to Nebraska I got a full time job in an office and worked two part time jobs, one of which was at a......DQ :) That job paid for the fun things I did, the concerts and clothes and parties :) Good times!!
5/20/2009 10:36:58 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie...I just checked out your Memorial Day Series and I have to say...The Pics are really nice!! I don't know when you put them up...but sure glad I saw them before the weekend! I wanted to leave a note on one...but couldn't...so I'll just tell you that I really liked the Cemetary one..where the clouds are low.
5/20/2009 9:41:17 PM - 002025703401
Jean - You dare to mock ElPresidente!!!! ok...cool...
DQ ice cream is a food group.... and a great stress reliever.... :)
5/20/2009 9:14:25 PM - 002029331419
And Cheri..... it is a party!!
My hubby's taken 15 lbs off......stress from work...so he thinks that it is a given that he has DQ at night to keep up his strength!! ?!?!? His britches are bagging and his shirt buttons are giving a sigh of relief!
5/20/2009 9:12:22 PM - 002029331419
Your Honor, ElPresidente!!!
"My People!!" !?!? ... Ah ha ha ha!! Your Sooo Funny! Cracking me up!!
Regards,
Your Humble Travel Fever Servant!
5/20/2009 8:30:01 PM - 000093706714
You guys are awesome. Thank you for bringing the party to me! hehehehe
Truly, during the summer months, the weather in MI is grand........just too short lived for me! I have spare room and my HUSBAND is a great cook! LMK (Jamie, you can supervise!)
P.S. to Jamie - congrats to you and looking forward to your updated pic. MY DH has also been on a mission and has dropped over 25 pds. He is HOT, HOT, HOT! (It is probably less of his own doing and more to the fact that I don't feed him! And I thought he was hot BEFORE he lost the weight, but he seems to be enjoying all the attention I have been lavishing on him over his new physique......so it's all good! Anyway,I know it takes determination and perseverance...SO CONGRATS TO YOU!
5/20/2009 6:58:10 PM - 001023411097
Hi Jamie, just wanted to stop by love the Garden photos. We are leaving for Alaska on June 25, for one week. Jamie my husband and I take care of my mom so our trips are fewer than they use to be. This is what we want to do. She is doing fine, but I don't leave her too often. Our trip was suppose to be for 13 days - we decided to shorten it to only the cruise. Take care and will check back soon. bj
5/20/2009 4:53:41 PM - 001024320926
I'm in!! Where do I sign??!! Jamie almost the entire state of Texas is in between us, you have all the maps, I'm like your Mom just tell me when and where, I'll be there. I'll help plan, email, send smoke signals, organize and day dream about this adventure!!!!
5/20/2009 4:21:43 PM - 002025703401
I will have to work on getting a new picture. Mom needs one too!
In case your haven't guessed, I am bossy and an organizer. My official title here at work is "Controller". Most say it fits me to a T. :) When I get too bossy, my friends tell me to punch the time clock...
5/20/2009 4:09:29 PM - 002029331419
Jamie... Just by looking at the way you made this list...your an organizer NUT!! LOL Bring it on...come to ABQ for Balloon Fiesta!...and if your not at Fiesta...there are tons of other things to do, places to go and fluffy pillows to nap on! Ha! Let's see NY, Michigan and TX...yep..I'd make a trip to all of these places!
Takes awhile to upload the pictures, doesn't it!! LOL!
...and Missy....your going to need a new picture too...because - I bet you don't look like that now!
5/20/2009 3:18:47 PM - 002025703401
Mom, I fell asleep while the pictures were uploading last night. Woke up at midnight to crawl into bed. Will add to garden page tonight. :)
Here is our group trip list:
New York City - Joanne Host

Welcome to the Travel Fever Club!!!
5/20/2009 2:45:43 PM - 000093706714
Jamie.......I was just checking on some travel deals (still dreaming and hoping that I might be able to pull some magic out of my hat for this year). But anyway, I digress. For all of you with travel fever....check out AirTran's deals. Go directly to their site to find the best deals. Hugs
Cheri
5/20/2009 2:18:38 PM - 001024320926

5/20/2009 1:52:43 PM - 001024320926

Hey I was thinking of going to NY when Jamie and LInda are their before their cruise, would ya'll be opposed to meeting up? Jean you wanna go? A meeting of the Shutterflies :), toooooo fun!! If only long enough to take a picture together I would be thrilled :)
5/20/2009 1:47:22 PM - 002029331419
Is El Paso on that List? .... ah ha ha ha ha!!! LOL!
5/20/2009 2:51:48 AM - 001024320926
Jamie I love the list you sent and have been cross checking it onto my travel book :) I already have a few things planned out in my little ol head :) I added some music to that page, exploring Texas, makes me think of the days of old :)
Better run, Lisa :)
5/19/2009 9:32:49 PM - 001076975951
I meant to write your GARDEN PAGE. I come and see it everytime I visit you and it brings such joy. Thanks for adding that Garden page.
5/19/2009 9:29:10 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Your cruise to New England next year sounds wonderful. What ship will you sail on? The photos are going to be FABULOUS!!!! If you come and spend some extra days in NYC and I can make it to the city I'd love to meet you & your Mom. Keep me updated. I'd like to take a New England cruise someday. We all suffer from the same condition Traveling Addiction Fever. But I don't mind suffering from this condition.
By the way, I visit your every time I visit your site. I LOVE IT!!!! It is fabulous.
5/19/2009 6:51:53 PM - 002067758981

I am still wearing the "loose" pants around the house and on the farm. Mom is starting to worry that I'm gonna lose them. I have created a monster and she will be trying to photograph it!!! But, she will never figuire out how to post it (I hope)!!! :)
5/19/2009 5:59:55 PM - 001024320926
Sorry Jean, you know I love ya :) I wouldn't do that on purpose........................no really not on purpose :)
Lisa
5/19/2009 5:48:39 PM - 002029331419
I'm telling Lisa....Linda...Lisa just booted me off!! Argh! I'm on my lunch break making my rounds and she bumped me!
AS...I WAS SAYING..... 91 days - 50 Lbs!!! A Magical number day for both of you!!!
Fantastic! Jamie...Girl, take that left hand, put in on your right shoulder and give your self a big pat on the back!! Congrats - That is sooo great!! Linda can you get a picture of that daughter of yours that's becoming a shadow of herself so we can see!! And Whose going shopping for new clothes for Alaska....because Jamie...you have to hold your camera with both hands in Alaska - you won't be able to hold your britches up with either hand!! :0) LOL!!!
5/19/2009 5:44:43 PM - 001024320926
Linda that little g-baby of mine gets her temper from her daddy, he was a spitfire, she's not that bad. She loves to be outside and we had just came in from spending the entire morning outside. She was pretty mad at me when I shut the door and down she went. She was over it pretty fast but since I had me camera in hand, well of course I snapped a few. She's gonna love them when she's older :)
Jamie I'll have to check out the eagle thing later tonight but it sounds pretty neat!! I'm at lunch and hitting the sites, seeing what's up and all that.
Lisa :)
5/19/2009 3:49:12 PM - 002067758981
OMG!!!! 91 days til we go, I get so excited just thinking about it.
5/19/2009 3:06:58 PM - 002025703401
I was checking out the latest threads on the Alaska Cruise Critic board and found this: www.cbc.ca/bc/features/eaglecam/
It is a live feed of an eagle's nest. AWESOME!!! Check it out!!!
5/19/2009 2:26:56 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thanks for stopping by my site and liking the botanical photos. I had to ask a stranger to take that photo. Next time I'll take some more of my girls and I. We had a nice time and vowed to take more outings like that. Victoria wants to go back when they have the Rose exhibit. Jamie, if you want i invite you to play the GUESS THE MOVIE game over at my Travel site/forum page.
Jamie, I must tell you your site is coming along very nicely and I enjoy my visits here and to explore all you have to share. "Thank You" Try to catch you later....
5/19/2009 2:23:07 PM - 001024320926

Jamie thanks for stopping by and I love the idea of a hole in the wall / dives list in Texas. I'm in!! And I do have my own credit card and I'm willing to carry my luggage so where do I sign :) I hope ya'll have an awesome time, it's going to be killer fun I can tell :) I've started the hunt for my Alaskan cruise, working on dates and then planning.
On the sweets, I managed only to eat three of those little suckers and my son managed to inhale the rest in a two day period of time. He's 6'2", 210 lbs and never gains an oz. however he eats his weight everyday :)
Eureka!! I forgot tell everyone I got my passport!!! Got it in the mail today. That was super fast!!! It's prettier than most passports because it's..........mine :)
Have a good night, Lisa :)
5/19/2009 2:10:58 AM - 002067758981
Just myself.....trying to get behind swing!! lol
5/19/2009 1:59:56 AM - 002025703401
Did you hurt anything trying to chase a butterfly around the yard??? :)
5/19/2009 1:52:01 AM - 002067758981
Just wait til you see the butterfly I caught up with today with my camera!!!
5/19/2009 1:26:19 AM - 002025703401
Hi Guys! Glad you like the garden pictures. I felt like working on something different from the travel pictures.
So, everyone who wants to go with us to Alaska needs to know the rules... 1) You must carry your own luggage and 2) You must have (and use) your own credit card... Other than that, let's go!!! I am glad everyone is catching the travel fever!!! :) :)
5/18/2009 11:20:50 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, I posted my pictures today, next time you're out and about stop by and have a look. Let me know what you think. I made a new page too, inspired by the travel fever that the three J's have infected me with :)
Hope your day was good one, Lisa :)
5/18/2009 4:56:13 PM - 000093706714
Yellowstone 2004............OH MY GOSH! Gorgeous shots girl. Gorgeous!
5/18/2009 4:51:29 PM - 000093706714
Jamie.......today I viewed your pending trip plans to Alaska. And here are my thoughts:
Take me, take me......I promise I will drop more pounds so as not to take up too much room in the luggage! C'mon......think about the BLACKMAIL SHOTS YOU COULD GET! I will sign a release so you can post at will. Very excited for you......and will be waiting to hear back from you regarding my 'offer'!! hehehe
Also took some time and viewed your garden page. Lovely! Anything special in the feeder to attract the red cardinals? Cheri
5/18/2009 4:36:56 PM - 001076975951
Jamie I just viewed your in the garden page and I have a few words for it...Beautiful, perfection, awesome, fabulous and amazing!!!!! Plus the nature sounds how great it that. Wonderful addition to your site...I LOVE IT!!!
5/18/2009 4:29:50 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Hope you had a wonderful weekend. Did you do anything that involved photo taking? Everytime I visit your site I enjoy my visits. Between the music and the photos it is a place of happiness and peace. I'm so glad you have a Shutterfly Shared site. After all the years of running into each other on CC now we share on Shutterfly too. I'll have new photos hopefully by Wednesday of my visit to the Botanical garden this past weekend. Also I'll have a Movie Game tomorrow on my Forum page. Feel free to play along. I'll catch you tomorrow. Enjoy your day Jamie.
5/18/2009 3:19:40 PM - 002029331419
Happy Monday Jamie! Your Garden is Fantastic!! I love that page! Nice sound effects too....I'd much rather hear birds singing then a mosquito buzzing around me looking for dessert!! ha! I noticed on Sat morning that the birds had their outside voices turned up a few extra notches and it sounded so pretty!
It's always fun to hear of a 'fast one' ....even better when your willing to share it! :0)
Linda...niiiccce! And you got lots of help too!
So great for your cousin - but to bad you couldn't attend! But that's how it happens sometimes! My nephew called his Dad and asked him where he was sitting at his High School Graduation - because he couldn't spot him - the Dad thought it was the next weekend...but he made it to the stadium in Denver, just in time to see him walk across the stage!
2 new Best Cities are up!
5/18/2009 4:02:38 AM - 002025703401
Now that Mom has retired, she and her neighbor (and my cousin), Maureen are obsessed with their gardens. My garden has to be hardy to survive because I don't have enough time to work on it. Mom got her first digital camera in Feb when she retired. She and Maureen are getting better at taking pictures (a few on the garden page were taken by Mom). But, every couple of days I get a call to come take a picture of something new in bloom.
Please Note: It is rumored that we are somehow related to at least half of Orange County Texas. I have lots of cousins...
Mom and my brother pulled a fast one on me this morning. Mom (with my brother egging her on) called in a state of panic that Dad was overruning her with vegetables... Could I please come help. The panic was fake, but I fell for it.... Spent the afternoon helping shell pinto beans... Mom owes me!!!
Barb - Thanks for the compliments! Barb has some beautiful butterfly and hummingbird photos on her site!!!
5/18/2009 3:23:11 AM - 001024320926
Awesome Family spotlight and In the Garden pages!! Love it!! I love cardinals :) I've been buying feeders and putting them out. This more there were aton of finches out, so I'm hoping I'll get those cardinals soon too. They're all over out here, I want them in the front yard :) Your pictures are wonderful :) Congrats to your cousin!!! That is no small accomplishment :)
Later, Lisa :)
5/18/2009 2:38:34 AM - 001023411097
Jamie, I just looked at the Teton Sunrise again and I think that is one of the most beautiful pictures I have seen. I love the tetons and you got a winner!
5/18/2009 2:31:11 AM - 002067758981
Jamie, I am so proud of the pictures from our gardens!! You did such a great job!!! Thanks for your help today. Love you lots!!!!!!!!!
5/18/2009 2:25:18 AM - 001023411097
Jamie, next time I plan a vacation just slap me on the internet! I need to only go to your site and take a tour of your vacations. I love your photos. Looks like you know how to have a great time. I'm going to look around. Lisa sounds like you had a good time on your road trip. Post pics soon.
I you have any lights to light up my "Lights at Night" page send them on. Lisa posted a neat photo. It is underconstruction.
5/17/2009 2:21:01 AM - 001024320926
Holy Swiss Cheese Batman, we ate at the Cracker Barrel too :) Because I have this bad travel fever, I got up this morning and said we're going on a drive. So the husband, Little Punkin and me hit the road for Lindale, Texas :) Why there you might ask.....Miranda Lambert is from there and she supposedly has a store there. So off we went, took about 45 minutes and we were parked in downtown Lindale, population over 5,000 saaaalute, right in front of the Miranda Lambert store :) She has a line of clothing and a winery called Red 55. I took pictures of the sign and stuff inside (I'll upload Monday). I'm a Miranda fan so it was pretty neat. The girl working the place says Miranda's mom owns it and they love it :) After that we went to the Cracker Barrel (took pictures there too :), good eats, I could have made a meal out of the green beans I had. Kyleigh had mac and cheese, Linda she thinks it's a veggie too (but she is only 18 months old :) On the drive back I spotted a 'museum' on the service road near Canton, did the u turn and drove up in front of a hole in the wall called 'Billy the Kid Museum self tour $1.00'. It had some interesting signs all over it and they were using old shingles for the pavement :) I didn't go in, not sure anyone was there, little scary. But I took pictures that I think people will get a kick out of. So that was my Saturday adventure. My travel fever isn't broken but it's managable now :)
Love the Yellowstone pictures, beautful :)
5/17/2009 1:27:34 AM - 002025703401
Ok, I'm going to answer everyone's questions in order...
Shuffle on playlist - When you generate a code I select (E), then change the second question - random/shuffle to yes, and then get the code to copy/paste in a widget.
Hi Sloane - Love you too baby! Sloane is my baby cousin. Her older brother, Monty is the one who graduated from college today.
Graduation Story - Picked Mom up about 8:30 this morning. It is about a 30 min drive into the University. First we hit a traffic jam, then parking at the University was about 2 or 3 miles from the Center... Well, Mom had knee replacement surgery in October and is not up to long hikes. So, we got points for trying, but we cruised the University and drove across town and had a late breakfast at Cracker Barrel... We were very bad diet wise. Made a pit stop by my office to change into casual clothes and then we hit 2 plant stores. Filled the back of my SUV up. Next stop, an afternoon party for Monty at his mom's house. Cajun food!!! Monty made a great gumbo!
Yellowstone - I been twice in May and once in September - We like the shoulder seasons because of less crowds. May - lots of baby animals, September - fall foliage, elk rut, lots of animals on the move. If you want to do a lot hiking, I would probably go in July or August. It snows late and early in the Yellowstone area. I am still working on adding more pictures to the Yellowstone page.
Job - Yeah, my family life revolves around my job, but it pays the bills and allows me to travel. You guys are now my new stress relief! Lisa is my comic relief.... :)
Trip Planning - I am an anal trip planner. I will research a trip to death. Kay and Mom just let me go.
Jamie
5/17/2009 12:19:29 AM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie....how did you get your playlist tp shuffle...instead of always starting on the same first song?
Hope your graduation weekend was good - my daughter went to the Univ of NM one today for one of her friends too!
We went hiking - what a fabulous day for snapping pics and smelling the pine fresh air! Love it!
5/16/2009 9:55:32 PM - 002069761512
HELLO JAMIE!!! Your site is fabulous! Love you, Sloane
5/16/2009 4:57:21 PM - 001099993350
Hi Jamie
Thanks for stopping by recently, glad to enjoy the pics ! Your travel pics showing flowers after flowers are awesome and I just love the header pic on your Alaska Cruise 2009 page. Hope all is well and have a great weekend.
Barry
5/16/2009 1:53:35 PM - 002029331419
I'm surprised that by the end of September....it looks like there was already a lot of snow!?
Would you go back in September again?... or late August?
5/16/2009 1:49:06 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie! Happy Weekend!I'm sitting on my back patio with lap top listening to the birds sing their lil' hearts out! It's going to be a beautiful day and we're headed to the mountains for some hiking and picnic! I just was dropping by to say a big congrats on your weight loss! It is a hard thing to do...but your on the right track and it will show in all of your new clothes and pictures for your trip! Fantastic!
And I too love that Yellowstone pic - - It's got to be on your wall somewhere in your house..right? I'm going to go back and check out some of those details a little better! Did you plan this like a year ahead?
Linda if Lisa is going with you guys...when you pack...could you throw me in your suitcase too? :0)
Jamie - Finance? .. Me too..for years! I remember when they told me at an old AP job that I couldn't move my daughter out of state when she went to college, my hubby would have to do it, because it was at the end of Aug "aka Month end" ! I looked at my boss and asked "So, your telling ME that this job is more important then MY FAMILY?" ... my boss looked at me (flames shooting from my eyes) and she said... Welllll... I guess we'll have to work around that weekend. Ummm yeah...good reply. LOL I laugh about it now.....Month end, Quarter End, Year End....it all comes out in the END!!! ha ha
5/16/2009 2:14:33 AM - 002055694880
Howdy Jamie. Just droppin in to look around. I agree with Lisa the yellowstone photos on the whole page are absolutely AMAZing! Simply beautiful. I always enjoy checking out your blackmail page. Those photos are so funny and what's best is we've all be caught at one or the other. :) Lovely site. See ya
5/15/2009 10:51:33 PM - 001024320926
The Yellowstone picture is amazing!! Beautiful!! I loved them all, love the cross in the window too. I checked out the fil strip as well, looks like a wonderful trip :)

I've decided.....I'm going with ya'll!!! I can't take it, you can't leave and not take me!! Now I know I'm looking at Alaska for the cruise, all the wonderful pictures have convinced me!! So now I'll work on dates and get it set up. Excited.........I don't think I can wait. What is this travel fever doing to me?? I'm crazed and have to leave town now :)
PS: I looked at the NM dates too, just about have my husband convinced that we need to go.
5/15/2009 9:09:43 PM - 002067758981
Jamie, I do want to go NM ballooning. Maybe the next year. That's my kind of weather according to Jean......her Alaska pictures are awesome.....I'm ready to pack!!!!
5/15/2009 8:28:46 PM - 002025703401
Hi guys! I've been busy working today. The whiners here at work want to be paid, so I had to figuire commissions for payroll. Oh well, at least I get paid too. For those that don't know, I run the accounting office for a group of car dealerships here in Beaumont. Business is slow, but thank goodness we don't sell GM or Chrysler. Also, we are the largest wholesale parts distributor between Houston and Baton Rouge.
Diet - I've been on a low cal, low fat diet since the first of January. I've lost around 45 pounds so far.
Weekend - My cousin Monty is graduating tomorrow from Lamar University. So, we are going to the ceremony and a party. Sunday - Weather forecast is rain, so....
Balloon Fiesta in NM - Looked at the dates, Oct 3 - 11, I cannot take off work between the 1st and 15th of each month. That is the downside of accounting... Maybe another year. :(
Oh, check out my Yellowstone page, I'm still working on it, but the header is one of my favorite photos!!!
5/15/2009 6:44:22 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Just stopping by to wish you a wonderful weekend. Any special plans? Love coming here and exploring. Love all your pages here and glad that you are spreading the travel bug around. Catch you later.
5/15/2009 3:16:34 PM - 000074469281
By the way, your header is stunning!
5/15/2009 3:15:30 PM - 000074469281
I keep getting bumped off by people!! I just wanted to stop in and say hello. Enjoy reading all the stories from everyone. I love the quote lisa sent you, I bbet Paris Hilton has a 'brilliant' one!! Have a great day! catch ya later...
5/15/2009 3:13:25 PM - 001024320926
I'm checking into the Ballunar thing. Looked it up yesterday. Going to NY for a meeting the end of Sept. I would love to go to the balloons in NM but time and money are an issue this year. My major number one goal is planning a cruise, woo hoo!!!!
I agree with Jean love hitting your site and getting to talk with Jamie and Linda, cool :)
5/15/2009 2:09:51 PM - 002029331419
Hey Texas Ladies! This is a cool site...we get to talk to Jamie & Linda - kinda like a 2 for 1 coupon! :0) Linda , at OUR Balloon Fiesta, most people start off with Jackets, but by 10 am were in short sleeved shirts and shorts! Breakfast Burrito with NM green chili and a Dr Pepper and that's just the start of the morning! Then there is a big Bandstand that has music and there's shopping and kite flying and.....naps...we'll we were up at 4 am!!! But after a nice supper we head back to the field for the Balloon Glow! Since the Balloons do not fly at night...only a 3rd of the Balloons that come get to Glow - so the field only has room for about 250 of them. Then there's the nights that only the Special Shapes glow...but were back in jackets when the sun goes down. Have fun at the one in Houston and then come up here next year!
Jamie - Are you low carbing girl?! ;0) - - And now I want to go to DC too!
5/15/2009 1:50:31 AM - 002067758981
If it's too hot for me for hot air balloons, you young girls will just have to show me pictures.........that Grand Teton picture still takes my breath away, it's sooooo beautiful. Brings the whole trip back, doesn't it?
Doesn't matter to me what you plan next.....just tell me when to be ready...lol
5/15/2009 12:50:47 AM - 002025703401
After Alaska, I will be out of vacation time Mom. Maybe next year, if we don't go on the New England cruise!
5/14/2009 9:43:11 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Hope you are doing well today. Love that sparkle/American Flag heart you have on your home page. BEAUTIFUL!!!
Yes today Victoria went on her job fair. I went along to keep her company and moral support. So now we wait and see if anyone calls. In the meantime she has also done on line resumes and more job fairs coming up in the next few weeks. So all your good wishes and thoughts are truly appreciated, Jamie. Thank you. And as for your site it is really coming along nicely. Between the music and the photos this is a great place to visit. Thanks for sharing.
5/14/2009 9:39:08 PM - 002067758981
See there girls, 3 veggies. That's sad and I really did my best!!!!! Mac and cheese is still not a veggie, Jamie. I want to go to Jean's balloon week, Jamie!!!!!
5/14/2009 8:10:18 PM - 002025703401
I love sparagus, but it is too hot to grow it here. I am on a diet and basically the only 3 veggies I eat are asparagus, green beans, and broccoli. I also eat chicken, chicken, chicken, and fish. Had a steak with Mom for Mother's Day and thought I had died and went to heaven...
5/14/2009 8:05:30 PM - 002025703401
LOL!!! Good quote....
The education system in our country is great!! Several years ago the office manager and I were discussing my trip to Washington DC and Mt Vernon. Several of the dips in my office did not know what Mt Vernon was.... Sad!
5/14/2009 8:01:42 PM - 002029331419
LOL!!! Now that quote....that's funny stuff, eh? ;0)
5/14/2009 7:35:13 PM - 001024320926
A quote for you Jamie:
The cool thing about beng famous is traveling. I have always wanted to travel across seas, like to Canada and stuff. ~Britney Spears
5/14/2009 7:34:04 PM - 001024320926
LOL!! ok here's a couple little facts about my Mom:
Give her a hoe and a roll of electrical tape; with those she can kill any snake within a 5 mile radius and make any broke down vehicle run.........it's true.
My Dad used his 98 acres of land for peanut farming, I stood in those fields pucking weeds from the earth many, many, many, many, many days.
I like fresh veggies too just don't tell my Mom :)
5/14/2009 7:28:49 PM - 002029331419
Fresh snapped green beans in a crock pot with a little ham......LUNCH TIME! I'm starting to drool on my keyboard!!
5/14/2009 7:27:52 PM - 002029331419
Those are Great Stories!! But little did you guys know that I too...grew up in the farm lands of Colorado! We still laugh about when 'sparagus' (asparagus - just so you know I really know how to spell it) was in season and my Grandma would get us girls to go 'sparagus hunting' down in the river bottom - but to a 10 year old, that's not so fun when your down in the river bottom with herds of cattle that are wondering what your doing wandering down there and what in the world are you 'harvesting'? - And they insist on approaching you - 5 at a time! :0O Funny how that knife in my hand didn't make me feel any safer around the ones with the horns!! I was really happy to see my Grandpa plant their own 'sparagus' next to the irrigation ditches where they could grow their own! :0)
5/14/2009 6:25:35 PM - 002025703401
The Heat - It is not a dry heat, think 150% humidity. Nothing put you in the Christmas spirit like 80 degrees, humid, and wearing shorts.:) We have a beach house for the ocean breezes in the summer. But after all the hurricanes, we've had enough and are trying to sell it.
I am so spoiled, I will not eat store bought can green beans.
Here is a country story for you:
My friend Billie spent the night with me when I still lived at home. We were probably 18 or 19, freshman year of college. She was loading her car up the next morning to go home.
Gun shots...
Billie hits the ground.
I asked her, "What are you doing?"
Billlie says, "Gun fire!"
I start laughing, "Get up, today is the opening day of squirrel season, dummy!"
We still pick on her about that. This story should go on the Family Secrets and Other Stories page...
Love Ya Billie (hope she reads this, I sent her an email).
5/14/2009 5:21:57 PM - 001024320926
LOL! When I was in high school i went to a friends house and came home that Sunday. I told my mom 'you're not gonna believe what I saw!! They have food in cans that they bought from a store :)' She didn't think I was funny, I did. We grew everything and did the same with the meat we ate too. I use to ask my Mom what kind of mystery meat are we having tonight? We canned and jarred and froze everything she could get her hands on. I did not appreciate it then but I can definitely understand it now. I love green beans.......Del Monte that is :) :) True story: my mom was hit by lightening while hoeing in her giant garden.
As for the heat Jean........it gets hot fast here and stays that way til November almost. We've had plenty 80 degree Christmas'. I am not a fan of the heat.
5/14/2009 3:57:01 PM - 002025703401
Jean - Welcome to our farm world... They are always trying to get me to eat things I don't like... Why do you think I live in "town"?
5/14/2009 3:53:31 PM - 002029331419
LOL!!! Veggie Chatter...This is cracking me up!!!! Linda...you can tell on Jamie to me anytime! Not that it will do Any Good.... but it sure gives us a little more kidding miles on Jamie...and remember that she started that Blackmail page.....
Is it that hot in October? We start off in about the 40-50's and then hit about 80's...but it is beautiful in October here and our Fiesta is the first weekend - runs all week - until the next Sunday.
And..Lisa does all that she can to keep the economy boosted...didn't you see that box of fudge she got at the Bass Pro Shop on her site?!?! LOL!! ...and she would have come by sooner or later! haha!
5/14/2009 3:17:29 PM - 002025703401
Reminder to Mom, I don't want to hear any whining about how hot it is at the balloon festival.
Also, I did eat the squash at your house on Sunday!
5/14/2009 12:40:30 PM - 002067758981
Jean, I know when I worked I did all these chores and the job too. Now that I'm retired I don't know when I had time to get it all done........Or maybe now I take too many BREAKS to see what you gals are up to here :) Jamie can tell I'm kinda freaky about my house......today I get to terrorize the pups with the vacuum and then get my nails done......what a life, huh?
5/14/2009 12:28:56 PM - 002067758981
Glad you enjoyed the green beans. we sure have. Now if you would just eat the squash!!! Cukes & tomatoes coming soon!!!!
I have been trying to get Jamie to take me to see the hot air balloons for a long time!!! See, I'm telling on Jamie now......don't know who I'm telling......lol
5/14/2009 1:02:09 AM - 002025703401
Jean is a tattle tale! I was just trying to help Lisa fillup her calendar and also help the economy by having Lisa buy more books. :)
Mom - Thanks for the green beans. They were very good!
5/14/2009 12:53:55 AM - 002029331419
I'm my Mom's favorite too....shhh don't tell Rhonda! Linda - Jamie's Mom....Are you really retired....I do those same chores...and I'm not retired! hummmph!! And I have a job that I work 30 hours at and get paid for 40, whether I want to be or not....then come the house chores! ...ok, going to take a look at Lisa's showcase and see which pics she picked for her you...Jamie!! Oh! Wait, Now I remember why I toodled over here. My TURN to TELL...
.. Linda-Jamie's Mom....
Jamie TOLD Lisa we were talking about her on the Best Cities page on my site... BEFORE we were done!!
Jamie...Lisa would have come by...sooner or later...now we're going to hear about her plans to go to the Balloon Fiesta...ALL SUMMER LONG!! :0)
5/13/2009 11:41:23 PM - 002067758981
Everyone needs a daughter (like mine)!!! Jamie, doesn't that sound just like your grandmother would have said? And yes, she does take me away.......thank goodness.
5/13/2009 11:36:26 PM - 001024320926
Soooo you're the goooood one :) me too, me too!! I'm also my Mom's favorite :)
I took pictures of my new travel books and posted them on my travel page today :) :) My addiction runs deep :)
5/13/2009 11:16:50 PM - 002025703401
Showcase page looks great! Thanks!
In reference to Mom's retirement; Dad, the dogs, the farm, her flower garden, my brother, etc are a full time job for her. I'm the good daughter who takes her away.... :)
5/13/2009 11:07:39 PM - 001024320926
Jamie the pictures are up and running on the Showcase page. Linda, I think your retirement sounds fantastic!! Plus I would imagine keeping Jamie in line is a full time job :)
5/13/2009 9:11:14 PM - 002067758981
Well girls, I'm here now. Dogs are clean, but decided I'd better check in. Worked 29 years in banking and I am enjoying doing what I want to do each day instead of what someone else wants me to do!!! I BAD?
Jamie was too tired to do much on her site last nite, so therefore she's not in trouble today....lol
5/13/2009 7:36:18 PM - 001024320926
Any two you want to share. I love all your pictures, they'll look great!!! Let me know.
5/13/2009 7:00:00 PM - 002025703401
Jean - Spoke to Mom on the phone about 1:30. She is very busy today.... (It is a very hard life being retired!) Mom is cleaning, bathing the dogs, and has to go pickup Dad's pills at the drug store. Luckily, all I'm doing is waiting on the boss. :)
5/13/2009 6:55:48 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, your countown clock says 97 days and counting. How exciting. Isn't that something how we all have acquired the travel bug virus. I have enjoyed traveling since I was a teenager. In those days my parents and some family and friends all got together and took tours almost every summer. Sometimes it was for a weekend. This was in the 1970's. We traveled to Canada mostly. So I remember how happy I was to see new places and experience new adventures. Then in 1975 when I graduated high school we went back to Italy to visit my grandparents. I had come here in 1960 as a child and after 15 years went back for that entire summer. We took a Atlantic crossing on the Michelangelo ship which lasted an entire week. Then from Naples took a train to Sicily. What a wonderful summer. So this travel bug has been in my system for over 25 years. And I pray to God it continues for another 25 years.
I love how your shared site is coming alon and can't wait to see all the pages that are under construction. Catch you later my S/F and CC friend.
5/13/2009 5:56:33 PM - 002029331419
Ok, Jamie...I had to come over here and see just what kind of trouble your in today. Hmm..nothing from Linda - Jamie's Mom, that has capitals or exclaimation points...You must be behaving your self today! ;0) ... But, the day is young...
Hey...I was looking at Carla Ferris link...wow...did she have an amazing trip with the polar bears!! Nice link!! I didn't see anywhere to leave a comment...but that's ok!! Amazing!
5/13/2009 2:38:31 PM - 002025703401
Sure, which two?
5/13/2009 2:25:32 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, I have a showcase page on my site and I was wondering if I could add two photos from your site to that page. You can email them to me at lisajrfan@yahoo.com or I can download from your site if like :)
Lisa :)
PS: the ship I was on was called The Majesty of the Seas. I'll be back later work is waiting.
5/13/2009 3:25:48 AM - 002025703401
There is no cure... :0)
5/13/2009 3:25:07 AM - 001024320926
PS: Does this site offer virus protection??? From the Ihavetotravelnow bug??
5/13/2009 3:24:02 AM - 001024320926
Jean it's just part of the fever/virus, take deep breath and GET TO WORK!!! Snapped ya right back into reality huh? No, what do you me no?! Hey look I have the same fever, my car doesn't want to turn into the drive way anymore, it wants open road and a map!! I'm afraid I'm gonna go to sleep and wake up in Nashville from sleep walking!! Buuuuuttttttt I love it!!!!!
Whatcha gonna remodel in her Jamie, this place is brand new, fresh paint....looks good to me!! I do however like the idea of the 'Family Secrets and Stories' site, don't worry Jamie I won't tell your Mom that you've already built it :) :) LOL!! somebody stop me!!
I've been on one cruise in 2005, I went to the Bahamas on the Royal Caribbean line. I will look up the info at work tomorrow. I loved it. I was practically on the bottom of the ship but it was fun :) Had a great time!! I'm looking at Alaska or Hawaii, aiming big :) but I have to get dates worked out and coordinate with my husband, can not wait to get it done :)
Better go it's after my bed time, Lisa :)
5/13/2009 3:08:39 AM - 002029331419

5/13/2009 2:24:19 AM - 002067758981
I vote NO to new web site called "Family Secrets & Stories"!!! You know Kay and I have a bunch of "Jamie Stunts". She likes berries and falls a lot, but recovery's quickly.........one of these days my camera will be ready.
5/13/2009 1:05:03 AM - 002025703401
I have an idea for a new page based on the comment by my Mom - "Family Secrets and Other Stories". What do you guys think?
Mom - Lisa is picking on Jean and me!!! And she called me "Missy".
Lisa - Warning don't get on Mama's bad side... Oh, try a cruise out of Galveston. Great first cruise to get the feel for it... Then you will be hooked. Our favorite part, no repacking, your hotel moves every night! Us girls travel with a lot of luggage.
5/12/2009 5:28:02 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, my name is Lisa and I have contracted Travel Fever from your site :) I went to the doctor and they prescribed a cruise to anywhere as soon as possible. I can't help but think that will only make it worse :) I'm game though. My books have me thinking and planning, looking at the atlas and counting my vacation days, I just need to pick my first destination. I am looking at a cruise too :)
We don't have anyone in the family we call Bubba but all the males are bubbas if you follow me :) There is no telling what's gonna pop outta someones mouth and astounish everyone...........then we all laugh til we cry. Yea I say it all the time we is country as country gets. Even though we clean up nice when we go to town theys no way to cover up that kinda country :) :) (said in the best Texas country swang out there :)
I told your Mom you were picking on me so expect some lip from her Missy!!
PS: I told on Jean too :)
5/12/2009 2:55:51 PM - 002029331419
Jamie, We have a Bubba in our family...he is my Great-Nephew and is about 2 and a half years old! And I don't think he even responds to his real name...but when my niece yells "BUBBA!" he comes a running! LOL!
My name is Jean.... I'm a Shutterfly Addict with very bad case of Travel Fever! :0)
5/12/2009 1:39:57 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Just stopping to say Hi.... Hope you had a wonderful weekend. I see you added a countdown clock for your cruise....Great and it is getting close. You must be so excited!! Have a great day and catch you later.
5/12/2009 12:04:13 PM - 002067758981
Jamie Leigh, you do not have to tell family secrets!! lol I think we have three don't we? See that you are still working on this and not going to bed at night.
5/12/2009 4:04:10 AM - 002025703401
Hoot = Crazy Southern Women??? (I must admit to using the word occasionally)
Travel Fever - A contagious urge to pack your suitcase and hit the road. I am highly infectious. Several relatives, friends, and coworkers have been infected, direct contact not needed.
Here is a question for you. True southern test - How many Bubba's do you have in your family?
5/12/2009 2:44:29 AM - 001024320926
Oh my, oh my, I have been a reading fool. I am in love with these books!! The Road Trip USA book is incredicble it has pictures of old postcards for every location, love that. It also has maps and tons of info, tons. The Most Scenic Road Trips in America is amazingly good, pictures, info, maps. I can't put them down. And Jean is right I am hooked, I want to travel and see everything, I mean everything. You guys have created a traveling urge in me like noooooo other. Thanks!!
I said you were a hoot, funny as heck sister and that's a good thing in my world. That Jean is a hoot too!!
Lisa :)
5/12/2009 2:02:55 AM - 001030486501
Love your travel site! Can't wait to see pics from your AK cruise. Andrea (chattmom)
5/12/2009 12:35:07 AM - 002029331419
Jamie: Hoot..singular...very good! hoots...plural ... makes in to a verb...and I think this is what those NASCAR girls do when their driver crosses the finsih line. Hooter....I think the guys that go hunting take one of these to bring in the geese.... (:0) ) Hooters....now if Lisa said that...well....you guys would have a whole nuther discussion going!! LOL! Yup...I'm pretty sure it was a Hoot...therefore...TOTALLY in a GOOD way! LOL Look how easily Lisa is distracted....she gets a delivery of her much anticipated travel books...and she'll have them read by the weekend! ....Ohhh She's totally hooked on seeing this big wide world...and you know your pictures just tease her even more!! :0) Good Job!! (Love ya Lisa Girl!)
Now Linda: Jamie's Mom....putting your daughter up to getting funny pics of her Dad!!...Now, that's funny!!! :0) Have you been to the 2 newest cities I put up today? hmmm?

The Revised addition of the The Most Scenic Drives in America is awesome!! I bought another one called Road Trips USA and it's awesome!!! I can't wait to read every page!!. Thanks for the inspiration to buy them :) Love the advice on Vancouver and you can bet I'll be taking your advice too.
Have a great day, Lisa :)
5/11/2009 2:29:52 PM - 002025703401

WE are going on an Alaska Cruise for the second time this summer. Leaving from Vancover on June 25. Our last Alaska, we went inbound on a 6 day prestay it was great. One day I want to travel by road. I like cruising! We have been on so many cruises. Thank you for the information. BJ

Thanks for the Vancouver advice!! Love hearing anything you want to say about Vancouver. Chattmom/Andrea took me to go to a garden while I'm there, Butchart Garden ? Can't remember because I don't have the paper I wrote it on in front of me :)
Your mom stopped by my site, so great!! Tell her Happy Mothers Day too and I hope ya'll have a great day!! I love all the additions to your site!!

Hello Jamie. I dropped by yesterday but did not have much time. Glad I came back by today. Your are a fellow TEXAN and that is awesome. I live up in Gainesville which is basically the Red River. I have enjoyed my visit. Whenever I feel like taking a trip I know where to come visit. Blackmail page is hilarious.. Wonderful idea. You can stop by and vist any time you like.

Jamie i just explored a bit of your site and the Blackmail page is LOL funny. Very original and creative. As for the Pacific Coast cruise page that was BEAUTIFUL!!!! I loved it. Every photo looked like a postcard. Thanks for sharing. I'll be exploring some more in the next few days.

Hi Jamie, Thank you for your kind and encouraging words about Victoria's job loss. I appreciate you good wishes. Your friend/co-worker's son was very lucky to find a job so quickly. An engineer he must be very smart. I wish him well and I'm glad to hear he was able to find work so soon after being laid off. It is always wonderful when you drop by and leave me a comment, thanks. Have a wonderful weekend and I'll be by soon. see on cruise critic too.

Jamie........I am a first time visitor to your site. Reading thru some of your previous postings, I became HIGHLY INTRIGUED by the 'Blackmail Page'. This kindof thing is right up my alley! hehehehehe Since everyone in my family leaves the picture taking to me........I have tons of them. More if they are not being nice to me!!! LOL
I also share in several of your wish list trips. I really, really, really want to go on the Eastern Carribbean one this year with my husband and kids. We celebrate our 25th anniversary this year.......BUT live in Michigan where the economy and jobs have become deep concerns. Sooo......we'll see.
There is lots to see on your site so I look forward to another visit. In the meantime, feel free to come by for a visit anytime. I believe we share lots in common.....you deviant one you!!!!

I went and bought a new camera bag today :) I love it!! I haven't checked out the harvandmarv site yet but I will be over the weekend. My guys are taking me to Cabelas and Bass Pro Shop :) :), I love those places almost as much as they do, so it's a win, win :)

5/8/2009 9:27:29 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thanks so much for the words of encouragement about Victoria and that she will soon be employed. I know you are right...positive thinking...glass half full and your good wishes are appreciated. I'm glad your friend's son was able to find work and so quickly. Make I ask what field of work he does? My daughter's major was communication arts. I hope you have a wonderful weekend and enjoy whatever you do. God bless you.
5/8/2009 2:13:16 PM - 002029331419

Jamie, you in such trouble!!! I am going to have to watch you every minute with that camera!!
5/8/2009 1:41:30 AM - 002025703401
My second bedroom has a bookcase full of travel books... It is a sickness!
Check out www.harvandmarvs.com - we are booked on their whale watching tour, max of 6 people on their boats (very good reviews on CC). I can't wait. 102 days til we leave! :) Jamie
5/8/2009 1:26:38 AM - 001024320926
OMGosh! Ya'll have me addicted already. A photographers cruise??? Did I read you right?? Me too, me too!! I would love that beyond words :) :) Thinking about something like that makes me very happy. Drooling at the idea. Dang, tissue please my laptop is wet :)
Gosh Jamie I just bought 30 dollars worth, books, ok, ok, I'll look at these too. I am a sucker for these kind of books!!
Better get, I can barely keep my eyes open. Up way, way too early. Lisa
5/8/2009 1:15:08 AM - 002029331419
Well....if we can't get one in this year...maybe 2010 will be the year...but I really want to go so bad ...This Year (stomping foot, eyes squinted, and a big waaaa too!) I was cracking up about your first Cruise and how you got hooked after that first one....should we tell Lisa that she just might get Cruise Fever and then has another addiction that allows her to use her camera even more then she ever thought??? .....naaaaaa....We'll just let her learn that on her own! LOL!! I saw that there is a photographers excursion in Juneau...the Glacier, then a Catamaran out to see the whales.....Me! Me! Me!.... I want to do that one!! I finally got to use 'points' when we went to Scotland last year...They dont add up very fast but great to use!
5/7/2009 8:29:44 PM - 002025703401
Jean & Lisa - I promise not to ban you from my site. ;)
I was helping Kim research her upcoming trip to Seattle, and remembered another series of books I have, "The Photographer's Guide to ___". I put a link under favorite books. Kim and I are working, I swear! :)
The travelmates are planning a New England Cruise for 2010 or 2011. Plan to pay the Princess advance deposit while we are on the Alaska Cruise. We are saving hotel points for free nights in New York City before the cruise. Kay calls us "Point Sluts". :0) Jamie
5/7/2009 5:19:53 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, not much time today but I wanted to stop and til you I registered on the CC, under ElleSnaps. Still have a lot to learn about that website it's so huge. Have a nice day, Lisa :)
5/7/2009 2:44:58 PM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie...I'm so glad you haven't banned Lisa and I from your sight...I should have warned you that she gets carried away sometimes! :0)
I have a Nikon D70s - My hubby has Nikon's at work that he has to use, so I had a Nikon 6006 for 35mm film - but when we stepped up to digital...that's what we went with. He's more the techincal side - I do the shooting! ha! But, I've had my camera about 4 years now and it's my buddy! Feels right in my hands too. We have a Nikon Coolpix for just quick shots and video's.
We just got back from a trip to Boston - and so this summer we'll take a lot of trips up to the mountains in our trailer - so mostly around NM. I'd love to do a New England Cruise this fall for our 30th...but we're waiting to see how things settle at my hubby's job. Now how's that for rambling!! Catch ya's later!
5/7/2009 11:30:20 AM - 002025703401
I am going to Alaska in August, Lisa has an upcoming trip to Vancouver, but where is everyone else going next? Jamie
5/7/2009 1:15:55 AM - 001024320926
I use a Canon Rebel that I got in 2006, saving for a newer version that I should be able to get around Christmas :) I absolutely love my camera, just bought a new lens for it and I'm all set. We also have a Powershot that the guys use when I'm not around and they make videos all the time on it :) Too fun :)
5/7/2009 12:54:37 AM - 002025703401
Webshots.com lets you upload pictures and video. The video will give you an embed code to add as a widget. That was a video on my old camera - Canon Powershot S2. I just got a Canon SX10 for Christmas. The Alaska shot my friend took was on Canon Powershot S3. What camera do you guys use? Jamie
5/7/2009 12:30:14 AM - 002029331419
I watched it!...."Bumpy!"....he he...now dizzy...Hehe! Are these filmed on your camera..and then put on here? so...I guess I'm saying "How'd you do that?!""" And I have a picture of Queen Victoria....she has pigeons all over her! But that was in Glasgow...Is that the same Queen Vicoria? I dunno!! I still love your tulip pictures!
5/6/2009 10:34:14 PM - 001024320926
I watched the video, LOL!! My favorite part........the Parliment....oh...tree......" LOL!!
5/6/2009 10:17:37 PM - 001024320926
Holy Swiss Cheese Batman!! Jeans right that photo is amazing!!
5/6/2009 10:16:22 PM - 001024320926
I looked up the books that sparked my interest in your list and have ordered three!! from Amazon, can't wait to have them in my pudgy fingers :) They look awesome!! Thanks for the lists on your site.
5/6/2009 8:13:22 PM - 002025703401
That picture on the Alaska page is on "loan" from my friend Kim. She went to Alaska last year. Hope to be able to use my own soon. :) Jamie
5/6/2009 8:08:41 PM - 002029331419
Your picture on the next page .....should be a picture for a Puzzle!!! Sooo Beautiful!!
5/6/2009 2:27:32 PM - 001076975951
Jamie, Thank you for the anniversary wishes. That was so sweet of you. We had a wonderful day. Dinner in Manhattan (O'Neals) and then a concert at Lincoln Center. I'll post some photos by the weekend, so come on by. Thanks again for think of me. I must say your site is coming along very nice. I'll be back soon. Enjoy your day.
5/6/2009 2:17:21 PM - 002025703401
National parks in Alaska that we hope to visit this trip - Kenai Fjords and Glacier Bay. :) Jamie
5/6/2009 2:00:45 PM - 002029331419
Jamie, Good list of books and I agree that the historic sites are so great! We just did a trip to Boston - LOVED all of the historic sites and info! Last May our family went to Scotland and when I'd seen the signs say like 1190 ... I'd think...Are you sure it's THAT old!! LOL!!
What is your historical pick for your Alaska trip...or are you doing a national park here?
Girls...come and play with Jamie...she's got enough going on to share around! Just remember to read Lisa's comments in "Southern" and you'll see that she's just a silly gal that likes to pick on me! :0)
5/6/2009 11:35:14 AM - 001024320926
Well if the 'really good' pictures don't make them come out of hiding :) then I don't know what to say. We'd love to hear from you...........come on, it's fun............the waters warm :) No one here bites........well except Jean LOL!! Just kidding :)
Hoep your plan works Jamie :)
I have written down the names of the research guides you listed below and am going to look them up this afternoon. Can't wait. Thanks, Lisa :)
5/6/2009 3:52:21 AM - 002025703401
Jean - We like to visit the great cities, but national parks are our passion! Notice that every trip usually involves a visit to a park or historic site. Our main research guides are "The Greatest Towns of America" by David Vokac and "Most Scenic Drives in America: 120 Spectacular Road Trips" by Reader's Digest. We are determine to check off all the road trips and spend the night in every great town! Once we decide on a trip, I purchase a Moon Handbook for that area for more detailed information (I told you I was anal about travel). :) Jamie
PS: The Blackmail page is for my silent travelmates and family..... LOL!
5/6/2009 2:42:23 AM - 002029331419
Hey Jamie! Wow...you are one busy Shutterfly gal! I can't wait to see your Blackmail page! LOL Very interesting! I think it is wonderful to see the world and to have your travel buddies to go with you! No sense in just staying home! LOL! I know CC has helped me a bunch with our Cruises! I'm the planner of our trips too! Trip Advisor and CC are my go to places! Your site is just beautiful and always a lot of fun to come and check out what's new! Have a wonderful evening! ... Oh...I have a Best Cities list according to Popular Photography..I bet you've been to at least 1/2 of them! Ha!
5/5/2009 11:20:48 PM - 002025703401
Lisa - I am the anal trip planner of the group; I will research a trip to death. The travelmates get handouts from me - itinerary, packing list, and cost spreadsheet (guess what I do in real life?). Occasionally, we have a group meeting and vote on trip options. All they have to do is show up with money and a packed suitcase. We are slugs in real life, but on vacation, it is go, go, go. We want to see and do everything. :) Jamie
PS: We loved Vancouver! You will have a great time. We are spending the last night of our Alaska trip there.
PSS: The mates are reading this, but don't say anything. One day I will get them to come out and play. ;0) I will have to posted the "good" pictures of them!
5/5/2009 10:49:25 PM - 001024320926
I love the Oregon page, just beautiful pictures :) I love the Caribbean page too, the riding the dolphin picture had me LOL :) :) I loved it. It looks like it was an incredibly wonderful time, both trips!!
5/5/2009 10:42:22 PM - 001024320926
I love the travel mates slideshow, that's great!!
Ok, another site you might like is Angelview Photography, her link is on my share site page. She's a character too :)
Thanks for stopping by today, Lisa :)
PS: I posted a picture of the hotel I'm staying in when we go to Canada, it's small but on my Travel page :)
5/4/2009 1:37:53 PM - 001024320926
I'm so happy you checked his site out. Have a wonderful day, Lisa :)
5/4/2009 12:29:56 AM - 002025703401

I'm so glad you visited Barb!! She has four sites, I believe. I have them all listed on the shutterfly share site page. She has beautiful hummers (that's her lingo and I love it :)
Your site is a visual treat as well, so many beautiful pictures and now I'm as excited about your upcoming trip as you :)
Have a wonderful day, Lisa :)
5/2/2009 12:32:28 AM - 002025703401
Hi Guys! Thanks for all the new comments. Everyone needs to check out the link to Barb's site. All I can say is butterflies and hummingbirds. WOW!
5/1/2009 2:43:49 PM - 001076975951
Hi Jamie, Thanks for stopping by and signing my map. How are you doing today? I see that you are booked on a cruise for this August. What ship will you be sailing on? I was on the Serenade of the Seas...LOVE that ship what a beauty. Can't wait to see all your photos both here and C.C. Well I'll be back soon and have a good day.
5/1/2009 2:15:46 PM - 001024320926
I keep forgetting to say that the tulips on the Puget Sound page are insane beautiful :) I love your site!!
5/1/2009 2:12:45 PM - 001024320926
Hi Jamie, I accidently deleted mu journal a while back, it was months worth of journaling. I was a little sick about it but I started over. The balloons are on my list too, thanks to Jean. Plus thanks to Jean and Joanne a cruise is on my list too. I want to go to Alaska really bad. I am going to Vancouver for 4 days in June, very excited about that!!
Your pictures are wonderful, I love all the pages you have!! I checked them out last night. Barb has a site, she lives in Livingston and has so many flowers and all things Texas, hummers and butterflies too. Her link is on my shutterpal share site page.
You can't go wrong with great gals like Jean and Joanne, love them:)
Have a wonderful day, Lisa :)
5/1/2009 4:43:04 AM - 002025703401
Jean, Our calendar is full this year, but the Balloons are going on our todo list!
5/1/2009 3:08:55 AM - 002029331419
Hi Jamie! So Sorry you lost your message board...but luckly a lot of us are good at chatting and we'll all be back to be checking on your site...and leave a note! :0) Oh..If you've never been...we put on a lovely show with the Hot Air Balloons here every October! But..book your rooms early...they go fast!! I live about 20 min from the field, and my hubby's job is across the street...we take our trailer down and 'camp out' the whole week! I'm taking the Thur & Fri off this year and plan to fill up my camera memory card! :0) Did I tell you that I got a real kick out of the twin moose in the sprinkler! Too Cute!...ok, going to look around to see what else I will enjoy! Have a wonderful evening!....
5/1/2009 2:11:59 AM - 002025703401
I deleted the message board on accident, so let's start over.
