Happy Cinco De Mayo
Comments (13)Sorry, I had posted about the crash on Karen's surgery recovery thread. I had my 4 yr old DGS on my lap going down the zip line at my brother's place and the piece holding the tension on the line broke. We hit the ground pretty hard. Fortunately, I got the worst of it, but Cody's head hit the underside of my jaw and knocked my jaw slightly out of alignment. He had a headache, but seemed fine otherwise. My chin/jaw turned a lovely shade of purple, only outdone by the backs of my knees, where the seat hit them...purple/black/blue!! My dentist told me the jaw would move back when the swelling went down and it has, I can bite together on both side now. I also slid on my right shoulder and hit the back of my head on the ground, so I was majorly sore for a couple of days!! But Cody was still on my lap when we stopped...instinct kept me hanging on to him! I had some bruises on my arms, shoulder, legs, and jaw, so...... I think I'm done with the zip line, LOL. So thanks for asking, but I'm doing fine now. TTFN, Candy...See MoreSS Support - Monday 5/5 - Sunday 5/11/08
Comments (54)And if you're not a Mom, I sent my wishes on to your family for a happy day nonetheless. Yes, I came down from the ladder - DH took me to Forbidden Kingdom yesterday. Relaxing. Today I paint the living room ceiling, finish the white base coat on my last wall (this is taking forever moving furniture around) and Monday start the colour. Going to take a piece of the fabric I'm making the curtains with to the paint store to match the wall paint tone - heck I've come this far might as well get the colour right. Stopped in at the Lazyboy store yesterday - we ordered a new couch (recliners on either end) and a new oversized giant recliner for Dave (6'3"). It has a great feature of extended leg rest you can push out with your foot so your feet don't over hang. These are do in a couple of weeks which hopefully works out for all of my old furniture around here that is spoken for and due to leave about the same time - otherwise the stuff can get introduced to the back garden shed. No love lost there! Finally getting our first living room furniture that's not hand-me-down. Only took 15 years but that's okay. At least it's cash and not on credit. Wonderful to see everyone is enjoying their families this weekend! Today is clean the fridge day, grocery shopping later. So I am thinking of what can I get myself for this week. Need to also start digging in the freezer to see what we have in there for meal planning. I keep forgetting. With food prices rising, I'm getting more and more fussy on portion sizes (less waste), quality and buying what we really eat and not stuff we might eat. I don't know how folk manage raising families these days. So expensive. Also have to think of packing lunches this week since I start my seasonal job of planting business/hotel garden beds. Need to pack lots of water. If ya hear me moaning next weekend about muscles I forgot I own this will be the reason behind it...I should dig out my bubble bath stuff too for this week! Enjoy your day today. Think ahead. I see apples in the fridge that need cooking (mmmmmmm), carrots and sugar free jello for later this week. Good week to get my single serving containers out to make my treats. Gotta get working on a new mini weight goal! Cheers, Peggy...See MoreHappy Cinco de Mayo - Margarita Recipes?
Comments (11)A friend of mine told me her top secret margarita recipe, and its very similar to the one gardengrl posted above, the only difference is that these had no Sprite. 12 oz can frozen limeade 12 oz bottle Corona beer 12 oz Tequila I had never heard adding beer to a margarita, but I vaguely remember that they were some of the best I've ever had. The above recipes calling for fresh-squeezed lime juice and zest, sugar, and tequila remind me of my new favorite drink, the Caipirinha, which is lime juice, sugar and brazilian sugar cane rum (Cachaca)...See MoreI'll show you mine/you show me yours - W 5/5/21
Comments (23)Sorry to read that Annie. Apparently you're not the only one! Do you still have a topics page? Did you press following on kitchen table? That is the other way I get in to kitchen table is I use my topics page. However kitchen table is not on the list. If you are at kitchen table at the top it says follow or following I think that is an ho u z Z construction so you should see it. If you ever have the capability maybe you could try pressing that. In order to find kitchen table when it disappeared for me I had to look on my notifications list or search in Google to find a KT thread. Not fun! It is very disconcerting to see so many people struggling with this.! I Fear GW is being manipulated too much to remain.. I hope I'm wrong....See Moretexanjana
