Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
mmmmm... Lowes... they're buildin' one here... I will still patronize the little guys.... but when yuh just cain't find whut yuh need...
dear Lord, the therapist is here talking about what Nana can do if we don't get the brace fixed...
I have got to get out of here...
got this from another friend in Baghdad... it's a pic of a Birthday Celebration (229 years) yesterday and cake cutting ceremony in one of Saddam's (may he soon join his buttbuddy Yasser) former palaces... nice digs...
have a great day everyone... it was an honor and privilege to serve such honorable citizens as yerselves...
Happpy Veteren's Day! Thank you sir, for your service.
Nice place. But I wouldn't want all the dusting ;~D
Pretty cool spot to hold a birthday party for the Marines! prayers for those still under fire trying to get where they are going today.
We did manage to stay up for the South Park, but barely. Did you? It was a good one. Shoud not have been viewed by anyone.
We are proud to honor such men as yourself.
Heh....
Cool! Should we chat view it?
Just thirding the resentment about chain email from friends.
Ugh. Tiffney has discovered my email. I now get chain-prayers. I absolutely resent chain letters, especially chain hugs full of puppies and teddy bears, even prayers - I won't read them.... even when failing to send it on to ten friends will cause the death of puppies, I hate them.
just a rant I have.
Heh...just one more benefit to working in an office with lots of guys...
I hate those, too! Or the "If you're a true friend, send this to ten people and the person who sent it to you". Um...if I'm really they're friend, they won't worry if I don't send it back. As a matter of fact, if they're a real friend, they'll stop bugging me if I ask. I like personal e-mails, but I don't like meaningless forwarded garbage!
Well, you're right, but I doubt they read FR. :-)
I reckon that the B-K was out doing his bit for QDHM. He'll be around again.
Morning - Great graphic and let me add my Thanks as well to all the Veterans.
Morning Hair - I'll join in that rant, we've got a dear friend that considers forwarding emails, just as you have described, as 'writing us an email'. They can sure fill up a mailbox.
Hmmmm...maybe tomorrow night? I'll have to see if I have rehearsal.
I just got back from Lowes. Guys, I know I whine a lot. And I really don't make this crap up. But we are at a pivotal point with Nana. It is time for her to $#!T or get off the pot...which would be the portable one that the therapist suggested that we put in the flippin' living room...we stopped that.
The brace on her leg came loose. We've lost one of the screws and can't get it back together. We have calls in all over town to find what we need. If we don't have it by the end of the day, I'll go back to Lowes and we'll improvise. But without it she is completely immobile.
Even as we speak she's telling the health aide that the therapist doesn't even want her putting her foot down. It's been two-and-a-half months since the d@mn thing slipped out of the joint. I'm no doctor, nor do I play one in the Christmas production...but fercryinoutloud, somethin' ain't right. She's supposed to get the thing off in two weeks. If she's no further along than that, I don't see how it can be healing.
Enough whining, but please keep this whole situation in your prayers. Wife is at her limits.
I ain't too far from mine.
For now, I'm gonna take my dust mask and get out in the yard...
My computer lives!
So last night I discovered the reason why it wouldn't connect to the internet was the network adapter driver was missing. So... how to get that? Well, you download it. Only I couldn't for obvious reasons...
So I brought my computer to work. Downloaded the driver from my work computer to my usb drive, plugged it into my laptop, ran the drivers. It worked! Yay!
Now all I need is some decent word processing software so I can see how much I wrote last night and we're golden.
Oh, yeah, "The Incredibles" was great! You'll love it, I'm going to email Mom and tell her to be sure the bothers get to go. Amazing CGI stuff, and funny, and so many visual references to other superhero movies.
You've got my prayers, Corin!
Glad you got everything working! These USB drives are wonderful, aren't they?
I still want a PDA keyboard, though...heh...wish I had a rich relative I could bug for a Christmas present! ;-)
Hopefully I get to see The Incredibles this weekend, as I said. I really wanna! Maybe I'll go to the matinee and then come home and cook the turkey breast for a late-ish dinner...keep my little sister with me and we'll make a night of it. She'd like that.
