  • Skip, that lawsuit's gotta be drudging up all kinds of old emotions. Yuck. Everyone plays the blame game, right? That sucks. And I love your recap! But I don't know who "SGM" is ... can you help me out? $5K is awesome! Did Jack rock his yuletide shoot? He's such a STAR! And I agree with Mary ... you need a break on this…
  • Skip, I so agree! It's a beautiful illustration of a willingness to serve, and of cherishing fully ALL the parts of a person - even those thought "ugly" or "dirty".
  • Lee, the truth is that you deserve a fair wage. Your work is valuable! Lou, thanks for the pic! I love it and posted it to my fb. We're SO EXCITED HERE!!! I'm all ready for the rehearsal right now ... it begins at 11:30. We have to go pick up table linens in a bit, after the cleaning ladies arrive and get started at our…
  • T-3 days! Booyah! Today is hair, mani, and pedi day. And work tonight. Tomorrow I'm doing all 4 of my regular meetings, then meeting some friends who are coming to town for the wedding for dinner. Then Thursday begins the REAL fun!
  • Raine, I'll bet you're quite the hottie on that bike!!! Dave, LOVE those bowls! You're so talented! I had time to nap today, but couldn't. Go figure. So, I spent the day walking around a pretty little boating community with Jim, then playing with and taking care of Anabelle for a while. I did a few more wedding…
  • "palatial manor" - gotta love a guy with a good vocabulary! On the agenda for today: book study at rehab house, last tanning session (don't judge me!), grocery shopping, a few wedding details shopping, guest preparations, some final preparations of wedding supplies and moving them to garage for easy loading on Friday.
  • Good morning, BBB! As of right now, the weather for next Friday is predicted as 77 and partly sunny. PERFECT. Let's keep it that way! Congrats on the new car, and in standing firm on all the hoopla, Mary! Enjoy it! Maybe use it for a nice little road trip for some Michigan blueberries this summer ... from Holland, of…
  • "digging the landscape" - hee hee!
  • T - 9 days to the wedding. And speaking of a countdown, did any of you see the rocket launch yesterday? I happened to catch a live feed when I wasn't looking. It sounds like it has something to do with monitoring water cycles on earth. Mary, the flowers look bright and happy and beautiful! You do SUCH a great job at…
  • I'm giggling at "shiny hiney". Hee hee! Enjoy being in the parade, Raine, and not in charge of it! I need those things in my life, too. I'm in charge most of the time, so simply participating in things is a TREAT. :wink: 10 days to wedding bells. Woot! So far, so good. I was too busy this weekend and yesterday, so aside…
  • A thought for Tess's birthday: Skip, does your dad smile? Surely he cracks up at your jokes, right? Dennis, I wish we had your tech skills here. We have so few sound people, and even fewer who have any ear for mixing it well. Last night was our last regular service of the season, and luckily Dh did sound. He's great,…
  • Raine, I NEED those brownies. Can you bring some up here? Pleeeeeaaaaaaaaseeeeeeee?
  • 2 weeks from today until those wedding bells chime! Woot woot! I'm so excited! I met with the mistress of ceremonies this morning to go over everything, and she is AH-MAAAAAAAAIZ-ING! When I did Dd26's wedding, I did it all alone. This time I'll have her, her husband, my bff and her husband from NC, and another wonderful…
  • Skip, YES! Crash the party! How FUN would that be!!! Dave, I'm pretty blessed to not be stressing much. I'm busy, but not overly anxious. :) It helps that I've coordinated a good number of weddings, and I've cultivated pretty good coping skills over the past few years. Oh, and I have A LOT of wonderful people helping me.…
  • Good morning, BBB! Sorry I've been MIA ... we're getting down to the wire here, and I'm a little distracted. But all is well! I hope you all are doing great! Skip, congrats on the new home! Sorry about the paint thing ... people make mistakes. Luckily, that is an easy one to fix! :smile:
  • Ok ... I **think** I got it right this time, but will admit that I'm not 100% sure. Can I phone a friend??? I've been a little crazy-busy lately, so haven't read here and am totally out of the loop. I remember years ago when Skip (I think) would post a summary. If you're feeling up to it, please do! :) We had the bridal…
  • I'm giggling at Dave's "salad bar" comment. Hee hee hee! Congrats on the house, Skip! Have they already done your list of things they need to fix? I remember making exhaustive lists of paint smudges and nail pops and door hangs and all kinds of other little imperfections when we build our house. Mary, are you cooking for…
  • Dennis, we'll go with 3. That's the official answer. :smiley: Love the pics! It looks like you had FUN!
  • I can't remember who asked me about the bling fight yesterday, but I will say that I contend that I will always win a bling war. I'm scrappy like that. (ha ha!) How cool that Sam, Dennis, and Skip are meeting! We want pictures! Steve, that is the most impressive to-do list I've ever heard of. WOW! We had the storms, too,…
  • Doh! I didn't get much sleep ... ha ha!
  • Steph and I met! It was awesome! Pictures on another thread. :) That said, I was up WAAAAAAAAY too late and am dragging this morning. It was worth it. Have fun with Skip, Sam and Dennis! What do the numbers mean, Sam? Your cake looked amazing, Lou! Happy birthday again! If you'd been here, I'd have let you wear my tiara…
  • We had FUN! :) Thank you for finding time to visit me, Steph! I hope we can do it again one day!
  • She liked my hubby ... But she REALLY likes a guy with a beard!
