One Step at a Time - February 2019

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Hi all,
Doing ok here, going to an online info thing tonight about Hip Sobriety school then registration opens if I decide to do that. ..so dd2 calls and wants to study abroad this summer. The thing is in Greece and its big bucks. There is a scholarship she can probably get that will pay for most of it but won't know if she has it or not before the time to have the money in. I wonder if they do that on purpose. So I will just give her the bucks and she can pay me back whenever....so I am thinking if both kids are gone for the summer maybe I should go see my Mom over spring break cuz I need someone here to tend to the cats. I am gonna have to sort that out in my head, if I wait I won't be any less terrified. When we went to Colo. I was crying and hanging on to dd1 for dear life:egad:...something to ponder.....Nora, that is cold, reminds me I need a new ice scraper lost mine.....Pauly, I loved the karate vid! I bet the boys will be great friends when Romeo gets a bit older..I like to eat out to, especially with the kids....Liz, your lunch sounds fun. I wish I had some friends nearby to do that with. Hope the chairs don't cost too much. Sorry about the dreams...I got the soap idea from a book.........so my niece posted a pic of my little nephew with an octopus they caught. My SIL showed me how to look for them when I went to visit. They go in holes on the reef and we would go out at low tide and you look under rocks and have a stick to poke them with. My brother got an octopus and they showed me how to clean it. So different way of living there, I like it....well, heading out for a walk...later

Hi everyone.
Bird - hard decision about flying.
Liz - hope it was a fun lunch
Pauly - perfect way to think about it - those nightmares are a wonderful reminder of where we don't want to be.

I don't have much to gab about tonight. So, I hope that everyone is having a wonderful evening, morning or afternoon as the case may be.

It's been so cold here that I was hoping it would get a little colder and snow. That happened once about 35 years ago. Probably gone before it hit the ground. But, I missed it! I was so close to marking that off my bucket list.

Bird, I would not be going to look for octopus, I remember watching a show on tv as a child about them and I have been terrified ever since.
But, that's just me. :egad:

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Morning friends,Bird I got that email from hip sobriety too,did you enroll? I like the style of it and I should've but didn't,too hard in the evenings cuz I have to entertain the boys plus hubs,no excuse just time limits,what's on for today? Nora,I'm tired of the cold and this snow is ridiculous, if it were Dec I'd be allover it and in love but I'm ready for spring! Heck I'm ready for summer but not gonna complain Cruz I can't change it anyways,Liz,I think octopus are cool creatures but I don't wanna touch one,hunt one or omg eat one! Sometimes on those cooking shows they make that and you can see all the little suction cups still,ewww! Dusty,I don't think I read what you won in your meat auction the other week? Hope it was something good,was thinking about the old days when Mama and K9 were here and Kradle,jeez who else? I just remember laughing my ass off all the time haha,they were talking about bell bottoms in the Army and those were before my time but my mom had hers and beautiful gauzy dresses and disco dresses when I was a kid I'd dress up,wish I'd have kept at least one dress cuz they were awesome,would be fun to still have,feeling bluesy but I think its the full moon? Could just be pms again grrrr,wishes for a happy AF Wednesday!; )

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

I thought it would be fun to have a Dusty & a Gladys.

I used to have bell bottoms. LOL

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Happy Hump Day!

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Hi all,
Nothing going on here, went out in the rain to the lake yest, been so dreary here. Same today. I didn't sign up for the Hip sobriety school. I watched the video, it was the lady talking for an hour, not sure there is anything in it that I don't already know, but I could probably use the structure of it. I thought it was kinda high too,well if I get worse I may go for it though....I do find the octopus kinda gross and it tastes like nothing, tasteless rubber, they eat all kinds of weird stuff there, grocery is 1 hour by boat of bush plane but thats $69 one way. There is a little store but the prices are crazy high, like $20 for a bag of shredded cheese...Pauly I had bell bottoms, hope you get out of your blue, it might be the moon, the cats always want to stay out during it...Nora, it rarely snows here, everybody gets really excited when it does......Liz, are you snowed in up there?.....waves to Rusty and Glassie......I am so glad Survivor starts tonight, that is my favorite show....b

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

I used to wear bell bottoms, too!

[Lizann]

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Yup me too with the bell bottoms! Dusty and Gladys:thumbsup: lol.
Yes, I am tired of winter too. Really not too much snow so I shouldn't complain too much. Just enough to make driving today a bit treacherous.
Painting is finished except for a little bit on the baseboards, my job tomorrow. Got an estimate on reupholstering my chairs. $650 per chair, plus fabric! Looks like I'm buying new ones.
Happy hump day!

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Morning all,yay Liz,new chairs! That's a pretty pricey redo sheesh,snowed a bit here on my side of town,who knows what the rest of the city looks like,not diggin it at all! Waves to the gang and wishing us all a safe AF Thursday!

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Wow. Snow in Vegas too.
The baby came over yesterday. She is such a doll.
Have a great day everyone.

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Hi all,
Going to the theatre tonight, opening night for dd1. Took care of some running around today I had been putting off....Nora, glad you got to see the baby....Liz, that price is ridiculous....Paulie I saw your snow.....off to get ready....

[Lizann]

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Happy Thursday! yay bird, have a great time tonight
Nora, glad you got some baby time last night. I miss Logan a lot . Totally can't wait to see him on Monday
Pauly, snow in Vegas? We had a pretty icy night/morning. Snow is one thing, ice is just plain dangerous. Turned into a lovely day though. Hubby and I moved mountains! Painting is done. Next up crown molding.

[NoraC]

Re: One Step at a Time - February 2019

Yahoo on being done painting!! (except for the molding) I'll bet it is a relief to have it done. I agree that price is ridiculous. I remember years & years ago when my Mom wanted to have her couch reupholstered. I can remember thinking that the price was crazy back then.

I know that you all are done with all the snow. But, I heard there was a chance of snow in Los Angeles and I got so excited. But, nothing in my area. One day though - one day.
