The weathermen are forcasting sleet, freezing rain and ice-go turn on the weather channel, I'll wait...taps foot...waits...
See Oklahoma, see all the pink...in '07 we lost power for 4 days due to ice...we all lived in the den by candle light, I drank wine and we played charades...it was fun For.ONE.Day...
So if you don't hear from me I am either
1.In my toasty bed trying to get over this crud I have
2.Without power,lounging in the den by the fireplace,drinking wine and playing charades trying to get over this crud
3. Tied up bound and gagged because the beanie weenees went all Children of the Corn on me trying to get over this crud
------------------------------------
Friday Night was the bloggy get-ta-gether-it was wonderful to meet everyone and put faces with bloggy names-here are a couple pics from the evening (forgive me for not name linking-I can barely keep my hayud held up)
---------------------------------------
My Mom started a blog-she is writing her story about her grandparents,her mom and dad and about being the youngest of 19 siblings-it's good stuff...
------------------------------------
Middle bean chewed up my mouse pad so I am now useing a DVD for a mousepad-IT.SUCKS!
-----------------------------------
Thursday will be my 1 yr bloggy anniversary...provided I haven't lost power I will be having a special giveaway that day to CELEBRATE!!!!
----------------------------------
My bestie is bringing me Tortilla soup today-I.LOVE.Tortilla.Soup
---------------------------------
Lastly but not least Today in Idabel Oklahoma presented me with this lil beauty
Yep I am Mrs. Congeniality-I ♥ this blog not just because they gave me this BEAUTIFUL sash but because they are FUNNY and since the economy is so bad they are taking orders for weed...
My confession for today: Did I mention middle bean chewed up my mousepad?
Get well! And use a magazine for mousepad until you can get a new one - it'll do in a pinch!
ReplyDeleteIt's blowing our way tomorrow. Would it be too much to %$#@ ask that Oldest gets a full week of education this year!?
ReplyDeleteHe and I were both down with bronchitis for the last week and change. I highly recommend a steriod shot and codeine-based cough medicine.
You won't care if the power goes out.
Yikes! Get better soon. What better time to have a storm blow through? I wonder if we're going to get it...
ReplyDeleteI had a great time Friday! It was great getting to meet you. Can't wait for the next one. Yuck! I can't believe you are sick. Hope you get to feeling better soon. My daughter is home sick also. She is telling me she aches all over and her stomach hurts!!!
ReplyDeleteWell maybe you should feed that bean a little more. How could he chew it up? And I hope you feel better soon!!
ReplyDeleteI used to never use a mouse pad. You can do without. LOL! But, a magazine is a good idea.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you are feeling bad. That just sucks.
Maybe the tortilla soup will do the trick.
You definitely deserve the congeniality award. You worked hard visiting all those OK blogs that were nominated for awards. Way to go!
I'm enjoying reading your moms story. :)
Those Idabel girls and their weed ARE FUNNY!
Thanks for coming Friday night. It would have NOT been the same without you. ;-)
Glad you had such a good time with the girls!! But see, someone there got you sick. I knew you shouldn't have gone.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm with Tiffany, how did he chew up a mouse pad? Is he lacking something in his diet or what?
Ok, I picturing a small child chewing on a square spongy pad and it's just not right. Is it some type of a nervous habbit, because hey, that I get, I bite my nails, but chewing the mouse pad?
ReplyDeleteOh well, I guess it's better than eating kittens!
Congrats on all your recognition!
You rock : )

ReplyDeleteFEEL BETTER SOON!!!! I got all excited when I saw 'Mommy Madness!!' LOL :o
ReplyDeleteSorry you're under the "weather". I'm also sorry I missed the get togther. Maybe next time soon!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to feeling better soon. Are you in idabel because I live fairly close to there and DO NOT want any ice. Guess I should actually go check out the forecast.
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better soon! My area was hit with the ice in 2007 and most of the city was without lights and heat...somehow we were lucky to have it the entire time...I hope it does not repeat!
ReplyDeleteOh no! I hope you get better soon!
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon AND don't lose power!!! Your blog always cracks me up and I love coming over!
ReplyDeleteThat get-together looks like soooo much stinkin fun! I'm jealous!
I bet you all had a blast at that get-together.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!
I hope you feel better... like yesterday. We were without power for 12 days... the last to get it back outside of those who had the line ripped from their house. Ah well... hopefully it won't be as bad this time around!
ReplyDeletefound you at BATW, sorry you're feeling sick.
ReplyDeleteJust wanted NOT to lurk and say hi!
That may be the worst mouse pad I have ever heard of! How about a rubber pot holder?
ReplyDeleteFeel better!
Get well and send some of that cold, snow and ice this way! I need a winter storm.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better and don't die!
ReplyDeleteAnd your bloggy meet and greet looked awesome!
Looks like you all had a fabulous time!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading my Ask Brandy Ellen blog and leaving me a comment. I hope you get better soon, my hubby is home sick today from work..I am so happy you got to meet other bloggers. I so want to get together with some in NH just not sure how to do it!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
@brandyellen
Congrats on the award, and I SO hope you feel better.... sick like a man... that IS bad!
ReplyDeleteI sure hope you feel better soon!!
ReplyDeleteLucky you meeting up with fellow bloggers! Ihope you weren't sick then too.
ReplyDeleteYour kid ate your mouse pad? HAHA!! I'm sorry. That's just too funny. ☺ Hope you feel better real soon!
sorry your feeling bad, and you have a bean that eats foam, and that a winter storm is baring down on your area. Blog gathering looks fun! (who knew you Oklahomans were fun??? jk of course (wink wink)) Stay warm, safe, well, and patient? ;)
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better soon. Also hope we don't lose power.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Okla so I know what the winters are like. You can bet you'll get ICE before the snow. Sure hope you can keep your electricity, Friend. A Sonic Cherry Limeade always makes me well when I'm sick. Just FYI.
ReplyDeleteSo, you went to the buffet and gave everyone else what YOU have? That's not nice. Wish I'd been there anyway. . . . on the far end of the table of course.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon. Please keep that stuff north of the Red River and you can keep your weather, too!
ReplyDelete;-)
Hope you get to feeling better...SOON!
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know about the Okie awards! Most unusual--haha! That sounds about right! I hope you're feeling better soon and enjoy the freezing drizzle--I'm sending it up your way! :)
ReplyDeleteWe're already getting it here in the NW corner of Okieland, I am hoping for a school snow day tomorrow as I'm the secretary! Hope you feel better soon, we have had the crud doing the rounds here too. Congrats on your award.
ReplyDeleteFeel better....and I don't have ice or sleet or snow. It's just freakin' cold here in My-Am-Uh!
ReplyDeleteFell better soon!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the bloggy bling. :o)
Gonna go check out your Mom's blog, can't imagine being in a family that large, I bet she's got lots of great stories to tell!
Ick. Feel better. Drink wine and don't let the kids tie you up
ReplyDeleteYou've GOT to feel better...soon. Sending good thoughts your way!!
ReplyDeleteHope you feel well soon!
ReplyDeleteI lived in T-town when the ice storm happened. We were without power for 10 days. The first day we did the wine and well more wine by the fireplace in the den but that got old quick! Thankfully we had friends with power and were able stay there. Hope this is a lighter storm without blackouts :)
I hope you feel better soon. And that you don't get iced in. Ah the midwest. How I do not miss the icy winter. It always seemed as though it got cold in October and never really thawed until May. Or June. Congrats on your lovely sash! (and how old is middle bean again?)
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon. Planning for the unforseen, laundry done(check), pantry full(check), firewood(somewhat check, neighboors have plenty) shows how much we use it, bags packed in case we have to go to in-laws (check). Wish I could have been there Friday, hopefully next time. Congratulations on your award.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry you are sick. I hope it doesn't last long and you are feeling better very soon. Try to stay warm during this stupid ice storm.. I'm not bitter about it.
ReplyDeleteTrust me people....she is sick...she sent me this wacko email! Kidding. Hope you feel better soon, Miss Congeniality! and I know I misspelled it.
ReplyDeleteI think Lilest Bean should be checked for a vitamin deficiency??? The thought of chewing a mouse pad is disgusting!
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon! Enjoy the tortilla soup!
Gril...I sure hope you feel better. Gret bloggers plan alike , huh! Wish you were close.....I can tell we'd have way to much fun together and be great friends.
ReplyDeleteEat yer soup and get well!
OMG I hate that you are sick. Eat lots of soup. Sleep many hours. Eat more soup. Love ya!
ReplyDelete'sick like a man sick'...that is too funny!
ReplyDeleteA bloggy get together!? I'm so jealous!
I hope you are over the CRUD soon! My oldest is feeling a little cruddy and I am hoping I don't catch it!
ReplyDeleteMaybe if you are better soon you can make your kids some food so they don't have to eat your mouse pad! :-D
I think there has been more yukky sickness going around this year than ever!!! I do hope that you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteHot tea; lots of water; lots of rest.
♥♥♥
I just got 3 scripts from my Doc today. Finally have my voice back and it's a few octaves below norm as well. :)
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain. That's why I've been in bed since before 7 in my pj's!
For $15.50 I can mail you a custom nosepicker mousepad!! You know you want one.
Hope you get better soon! Missed coming to your blog while the wife was recovering from her surgery!
ReplyDeleteOUTLANDER! We have your woman!!
ReplyDeleteHow did you know I love that movie?

I prayyyy that we dont have that freeze again, we had just moved here and stayed with friends during, it was fun but so many people lost power for weeks, all we lost were 5 trees. sweet dreams and feel better soon! ♥ LA

Crud, crud go away and take the ice storm with you.

Ugh! Ice and sickness are not my friends. Hope you feel better soon.
