Thanks Alffe

Grandkids are the BEST personal trainers around! No pain, no gain. Have fun.

Special hugs for ((Kathy)). Please keep up the good work with sustaining your body.

I had a very special evening and day with granddoody. He turned 2 on Thursday? the 2nd, but his 'big' birthday party is tomorrow at a park shelter. Supposed to be in the mid 90's and humid. Ugh.

I decided to get my hair cut at the last minute at Great Clips before I came home today. I now officially look like a boy. Oh well. I'm so cute, what the heck.

well you are cute and that's the truth! I hope you didn't get rainned out Doody...just poured here. We didn't care as we went to the movie...No Reservations with that Zeta -something Jones.

And KathyM...you sure know what you're talking about. They are the best personal trainers not to mention bargain hunters.

time is going way to fast!

The party was OPPRESSIVE!!!! My kids decided next year they will have an indoor pool party, LOL. AND, no rain, but it was totally overcast and still we all sweated til I swear there wasn't any sweat left to give.

We haven't had ANY rain here in central Iowa, but other parts of Iowa have been getting it. I hope we do eventually. The oppressive weather is supposed to continue...gee, what a surprise in August. NOT.

Grandoody drank a lot of juice to keep up with the heat.



I'm getting excited about my impending trip to Chicago.

AHAHAHAHA! I can smell him now - bet he was sticky. Also bet you'll never hear the words "It's too hot/humid to play today."

I'm glad you survived.

LOL no, kids running everywhere with beads of sweat everywhere. They didn't seem to care, but you could tell by their flushed faces they were getting too hot. Then they get crazy and cranky.

And, he still smelled like a sweet little boy.

Isn't that the most beautiful sound? Kids playing to their breaking point.

I used to be my sister's puppet, and she liked to dress me up and show me off to her friends. Whenever I'd whine or cry, she'd tell her friends "Watch this!" She'd turn on the radio, and I'd instantly start smiling and dancing. She DOES know how to pull my strings.

Just got a call from my sister about the lump her doc found in her breast. They did a mammogram and ultrasound. He studied it closely, then looked again and again. Found absolutely NOTHING!

YIPPEE - Makes me feel like dancing!

hehehe...doody...we call that little boy smell...sunshine.

on my plate...like alffe...teenage girls! lil'monkey had 2 spend the night. one it was her second night. poor grandmonkey...he is bent out of shape. they want nothing to do with a 5 yr old.

also on my plate..trying to get a hold of his mother. she has to get his registered for school. so far...she hasn't answered emails or voice mail. time is running out. i DO NOT want to have to home school him. he needs interaction with kids and not be with just me literally 24/7. i may be tons of fun but there a thing call toooooo much togetherness.

alffe..i just love the beauty schools. they are a fun place to have girls birthday parties. we also used to take my MIL there every other week for her treat. hehehe..ulterior motive....they did awsome pedicures and took care of her feet..something she never did.

Great news about your sister KathyM! So happy for you both.

The girls look so glamarous! guess who is gonna have a manicure, french cut, before she goes to N.Y.! MOI! (no, not dat one...me!)

Curious that's something to remember about old people and their feet....course Bizi doesn't want to hear that!

Doody I hope you get some of this rain soon....I am going to need to cut the grass....big time!

off to take my FIL to get a colonoscopy... NOT my idea of a fun way to start your day LOL
