It was a travesty, let me tell ya! Dreamy's BBQ went all to hell! :))

[ChloeP]

And A1 doesn't go well with chicken...Well, not as well as Mayo..
ChiChi-shouldn't he be wearing a bib if he gets things so messy?

Actually you're wrong there...I marinate my chicken in Zesty Italian dressing and A1...it's awesome!!!

[Arya]

Actually you're wrong there...I marinate my chicken in Zesty Italian dressing and A1...it's awesome!!!
Aaaah, but you have to mix the A1 with another flavor.

Mmmm, and that does sound tasty. :drool:

Getting hungry here!

Alrighty ladies-question for all of you: paint your toenails or no? Is it worth getting a petticure at a salon, or do them yourself?

[Dreamy]

Alrighty ladies-question for all of you: paint your toenails or no? Is it worth getting a petticure at a salon, or do them yourself?

Both. I like a pedicure in the summer months. Do them myself in the winter months.

[tatervt]

I had to paint the wife's toenails last weekend...

with each toe i became more and more asian

[Arya]

I had to paint the wife's toenails last weekend...

Your wife don't look Asian... :naughty:

BUT with each toenail you do become more feminine... :shifty:

[Arya]

Both. I like a pedicure in the summer months. Do them myself in the winter months.
Yea, pedicure-that's how it's spelled :D

I have always done my own nails-fingers and toes. I love the way they look, esp in the summer where I'm always in open toed sandals or barefoot.

[tatervt]

Your wife don't look Asian... :naughty:

BUT with each toenail you do become more feminine... :shifty:
I was just trying to get into character.

A few more toes and i'd start squinting at nighttime

[Arya]

I was just trying to get into character.

A few more toes and i'd start squinting and nighttime
:naughty: Stop, many salons are not Asian based and you're being naughty. Gonna break out Dreamy's whips if you don't behave :eek:

But keep on painting the toes and you will start wearing pastel colors, coordinating your outfits, go shoe shopping, and start getting manicures/pedicures yourself....

[tatervt]

No kidding...the pastel colors thing is already starting to happen

[chichimama]

Alrighty ladies-question for all of you: paint your toenails or no? Is it worth getting a petticure at a salon, or do them yourself?

I paint mine for the summertime and wearing sandals. Hubby helps once in a while. And I'd rather do my own pedicure 'cause I know for a fact my clippers & scissors are clean. I don't want to risk getting an infection from someone else's toe-funk. :sick:

[Arya]

No kidding...the pastel colors thing is already starting to happen
See? Next you'll be joining us at the salon. Time for a new hairdo, some highlights will do just nicely, don'cha think ladies?

I've heard some horror stories from some "questionable" salons. Not sterilizing the equipment and basins for washing the feet in between customers.... :eek:

But just think of how healthy your nails will be-never have to suffer from another hangnail ever again.

And your new 'do will be the talk of the town... :))

[ALBOB2]

Heyyyyy, just don't send me the bill! ;)

The bill? Nah. Maybe a thank-you card though.;)

You don't know what you're missing!!! There is nothing better...

[super cool ski instructor]

If you gt a pedicure at a spa like at Nordstroms they do the whole serene room, with the warm towels over your eyes and around your neck, then they exfoliate and massage your ankles and calves. They have the spa-like music playing. It is unbelievable. And it's only like $45. for the whole thing. That's a really good price for an hour at Nordstroms.

[Jesso]

Yeah it is. It cost me around $65 when I get the spa pedi.

It'd be a waste of money for me. Because I'd fall asleep in the first few minutes and miss out on the pampering. :mrgreen:

[chichimama]

Good morning, ladies! For those of you who will be using a tan-in-the-can product this summer:

I tried the Neutrogena MicroMist Tanning Sunless Spray #3. It works pretty well, except... you're supposed to hold the can 6" away and spray. Well, the spray is clear and you can't really see where you've sprayed your skin. A few hours later, I had brown stripes. :mrgreen: And white patches where I thought I sprayed but must have missed. So the next time I sprayed a few days later, I lightly rubbed the product in and around my skin & got an even tan. Just something to keep in mind for spray tan-in-the-can products.

[Arya]

Well, seeing that I cannot go in the sun/tanning beds to tan, I'm either got to be satisfied with the "casper glow" or "tan in a can"

Hopefully I'll be less stripey.... :eek:

Sorry to hear bout that Chichi!! :(

[Cowgirl Up!]

I GOT A JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

[Jesso]

OMG where?

[Jesso]

:clap: Im soooo happy for you (even though working sucks) but still very happy!!

[Arya]

Congrats C-girl! What kind of a job?

[Cowgirl Up!]

It's only a pizza joint but it's still a job so I'm thrilled :D

Off to work. Haha.

[melinda]

It's only a pizza joint but it's still a job so I'm thrilled :D

Off to work. Haha.
Hope you like the job and hope you like the people! have fun, but work hard!

[Cowgirl Up!]

Ah yes. Don't have to worry about working hard, my parents have drilled that into my head :D The thing to worry about is messing up orders on the dadgum computer. Other than that, it was okay. I had one slightly drunk dude and I had to get his phone number, so I said, "Could I get your phone number, please?" He looked at me with this weird look and said, "What?" Then I realized what he was thinking and I was like, "Oh, no no no no no!" And just skipped the phone number thing :lol:

[Canis Major]

So, you got a job, Cowgirl?

[Arya]

Ah yes. Don't have to worry about working hard, my parents have drilled that into my head :D The thing to worry about is messing up orders on the dadgum computer. Other than that, it was okay.

Then I realized what he was thinking and I was like, "Oh, no no no no no!" And just skipped the phone number thing :lol:
LoL-it's funny the reactions you get from people when you do that. They don't realize why you have to ask, and wonder why you're asking for their number! I know I did the first time I was asked.

[chichimama]

It's only a pizza joint but it's still a job so I'm thrilled :D

Off to work. Haha.

Congrats! And don't say "only a pizza joint". It's an important job. We love pizza and delivery service. Without people like you working there, we'd have to resort to the frozen cardboard pizza at the grocery store. :sick: You're earning some money, getting job experience and might meet some cute guys. ;)

[Jesso]

Yeah, what she said. Just watch out and don't nibble too much! I had a friend who got a job at Pizza Hut, and gained like 15lbs in the summer :(

[chichimama]

Yeah, what she said. Just watch out and don't nibble too much! I had a friend who got a job at Pizza Hut, and gained like 15lbs in the summer :(

That's one of those unfortunate side effects. :D When I worked as a waitress way back in the olden days, I loved snacking on the stawberry pies and hot fudge sundaes.

[Cowgirl Up!]

:)) Shouldn't be a problem. Didn't even eat last night because I wasn't hungry, and I'll probably pack my own meals. Plus I'm on my feet pretty much the entire time, so that's a good enough workout running around.

Hope I don't mess up any orders tonight :shifty:

[Hadassah]

Ah yes. Don't have to worry about working hard, my parents have drilled that into my head :D The thing to worry about is messing up orders on the dadgum computer. Other than that, it was okay.

Be careful with those drunk guys. When I was working at a fast food place, I had one grab me through the drive through window. :eek:

[Jesso]

:eek: is right

[Hadassah]

:eek: is right


Yeah, luckily there were others in the car with him. It took 2 or 3 people to make him let go. And unfortunately, I was in a position where I could not do anything to help myself get away.

[Cowgirl Up!]

:eek: Holy smokes! How far did he manage to drag you out the window? Did you get his license plate and report him?

[Arya]

Yeah, luckily there were others in the car with him. It took 2 or 3 people to make him let go. And unfortunately, I was in a position where I could not do anything to help myself get away.
Sometimes that's all you can do-do what it takes to get away for your safety is the most important thing. It doesn't sound like you got hurt-and I hope you didn't, but what an experience! Those drunks can be downright dangerous!

[Hadassah]

:eek: Holy smokes! How far did he manage to drag you out the window? Did you get his license plate and report him?


He didn't get me very far out the window. Thank God for that. I didn't get his plates. He left so fast that I couldn't, plus I was too shaken up to do that.

[Hadassah]

Hurt, no. Shaken up, yes.

[Hadassah]

I need to vent!!!! That is, if it OK to on this thread.



:mad: :wall: :mad: :wall:

Go for it, Vent away! You're Hannity sista's are listening!

[Hadassah]

OK, Arya, CGU, and Melinda, you got it!


I am ticked off because of an ex boyfriend of mine. This man was a total jerk to me. Cheated on me multiple times, lied to me more times than I could count, and worst of all, would not drive me to the hospital when I was hemorrhaging from having a miscarriage. I had to drive myself. Needless to say, I didn't make it to the hospital. I pulled over at a gas station and stumbled in, telling them to call 911. By God's Grace, there was already an EMT there who helped me a great deal before the ambulance arrived. Then the jerk told me that he couldn't come to the hospital when I needed surgery after the miscarriage because his father "wouldn't let him use the truck." His father later told me that it was a lie. He cried over his ex girlfriend having an abortion of a baby that was not even his, but didn't care when I lost our 2 babies. He'd tell me that he would call, but when he didn't, it usually meant that he was lying to me, cheating, doing drugs, or something else he shouldn't have been doing.


I know that I was a different person back then. But I still find it difficult to forgive myself for putting up with his behavior(and him). I find it difficult to forgive him.

[ChloeP]

I find it difficult to forgive him.


As would I.

[Hadassah]

I think I even hate him.

[ChloeP]

I think I even hate him.


And I wouldn't blamee you for that. There are words for men like him....although I'd get banned for using most of them...

[Cowgirl Up!]

I've had to deal with feelings of hate recently as well. The thing to do (this sounds simple, but it has to be tried) is to just move on. You're with a great guy now, be thankful for what God has blessed you with. :hug:

CGU - How's the skin this week?

100% better, thank-you. My skin looks absolutely beautiful due to the accutane :dance: This just might be my last month. :D

[melinda]

I know that I was a different person back then. But I still find it difficult to forgive myself for putting up with his behavior(and him). I find it difficult to forgive him.
OK...this is just my opinion. I have never had a bad boyfriend relationship. (I married my first boyfriend.) But I have had other people in my life that have treated me wrong, one being my own dad. What I have learned is also going to sound like a cliche, but it's only because it's true. You must forgive yourself. You have grown. You have changed. Yes, you wasted too many precious years with this terrible jerk, but don't waste any more years by torturing yourself. The past is behind you, and you can not change it. I know you wish you could, but you can't. Forgive yourself and do not waste anymore time on this selfish horrible person. I don't know if you are a Christian, but if so, pray, pray, pray. It will not happen overnight, but it will happen. As a Christian, I also believe you must forgive the "ex". God can and will give you strength that you never knew you had. You can start with baby steps. "God, please just don't let me HATE him." "God, please let me see him the way You see him." You don't have to start w/ love and forgiveness...those have to be worked up to. You mentioned he did drugs. Try to understand how terribly sad and pathetic his life is and how terribly sad and pathetic he is. When you look at him as the outward lying human he is, you feel hate. Which is definitely understandable. But look deep into the sad sad portions of his soul. Something is definitely missing in him...and that is just sad. Pray for God to restore you, but also pray for God to restore him. And in saying this, I realize it could take years to forgive him...please, please forgive yourself immediately. But if you hold onto hate, it will only hurt you. Don't let him to continue hurting you. You've got to let go of the hate.
I'll get off my soapbox now. I am here to listen.

[melinda]

Hadassah,
I thought a bit about my last post, and I hope that I didn't make light of your ex's behaviour. I believe his behaviour to be appalling, and I believe he is one sorry excuse for a human being. However, the point I was attempting to make was that you must begin to heal and you can only heal by forgiving yourself and by letting go of the anger, hurt and hate which he caused. I'm sorry that I wasn't more clear about that in my previous post.

[Sallow]

Exactly!

[Arya]

Wow Hadassah, and ty for the vent. If something bothers you that much-regardless of how long ago it was, vent!

Dunno if this would help out or not, since everyone is different and reacts to situations like this differently. But try to see why you cannot forgive yourself first for what happened back then-and how you acted (or did not act) back then. Once you understand this, perhaps you can understand your feelings towards him, even the hateful ones, and then perhaps you can then "let go" and forgive both yourself and him.

That is a lot to undertake. I have been very angry at certain ex-boyfriends in the past who really screwed me over. I realized I wasn't "getting over it" since I didn't understand why I was so angry still. I realized that a part of me was angry at myself mostly, and once I realized that I could bit by bit forgive myself, and then him, and move on. I think a part of me is still angry over certain issues, but for the most part I feel better overall.

Again, we're all different and handle things differently-but I hope this can help w/ something! :)

Great advice. And definitely don't rush it...I've found when I had to let someone go from my life, I basically had to go through the 12 steps of grief just as if that person had died. (I suppose b/c the relationship died) But on the other hand, don't hold onto any one-step of the process too long either. And remember there are many, many wonderful men in this world...and you have many, many wonderful friends in this world also! We're here for you. :hug:

...and vent anytime you wish. sometimes you think you've put something behind you, only to have it come smack you right back upside the head.

WHat do you like to bring with you to the beach? Fav books, snackies, games, etc?
I absolutely LOVE the beach. I told my husband if he ever wants to get rid of me, but w/out the nasty divorce, just buy me a beach house...he'll never see me.

I usually always have a book or a stack of magazines. Usually no brainer reading so that I can also people watch. Obviously a lot of water to drink, but also a nice cold alcoholic drink. Usually something "tropical" from the local bar. (about the only time I do drink "tropical" drinks.) I love anything and everything about the beach. Especially the people watching. I usually lay out and read and watch people...then I cool off in the water...jump the waves, body surf, etc...then take a nice long walk down the beach.

My gosh it's been over a year for me as well! :eek: Hey I got my legs waxed a few days ago too, I guess I'll go bug one of the neighbors :mrgreen:

[Arya]

I love to go to the beach with my fav book, plenty of H2O, some light snakkies such as friuit or crackers, and an umbrella.

I can't stay out in the sun, so I'm under the umbrella. But I love to swim and the atmosphere of being there so that makes up the difference for not being able to tan.

[Kim7]

My gosh it's been over a year for me as well! :eek: Hey I got my legs waxed a few days ago too, I guess I'll go bug one of the neighbors :mrgreen:

Because of the pain.

It only hurts the first 2-3 times, even then it's bearable. Just don't let it grow out too long and pretty soon it's kinda relaxing.

It only hurts the first 2-3 times, even then it's bearable. Just don't let it grow out too long and pretty soon it's kinda relaxing.


I don't know man, I've been waxing my eyebrows for years and it ALWAYS hurts and then I turn bright pink for the next few hours!

[ALBOB2]

lol Always. No sad faces allowed at my beach.:mrgreen:


And where, EXACTLY, did you say your beach was again?:think:

Yeah but after a while you can't really even see the hair. I was wearing skirts this last time before I got it waxed and nobody noticed.

[melinda]

Thank God that I am blond and pretty hairless. My husband is part American Indian, so even though he is dark, he is pretty hairless as well. My son's best friend is growing a beard. I asked my son if he was going to grow one too. My son replied, "Yeah. Maybe in 10 years or so!"

Darn you blond hairless people. I'm part hispanic, so I have hair and it's all dark black. I couldn't get away with that not shaving for a month or so like CGU said.

Yeah, having fair-skinned genes does have it's advantages w/fine or light colored hair.

The big disadvantage is burning in the sun easily-or as my wonderful b/f likes to remind me that I can burn under a 5 watt lightbulb... :rolleyes:

lol you'd think that but my grandpa calls me his little gringa (sort of a mean way to say white girl in Spanish), "aye mija, tu eres mi gringa bonita."
The rest of my family and friends call me the "white Mexican". Which is when I have to remind them I'm only 1/4 and it's Spanish/Mexican mix and Spanards are European and don't have the darker complexion of Mexicans so I think I got the skin color genes from my great-grandma who came from Spain instead of my great-grandpa who came from Mexico. My features, hair, and eye color all came from grandpa though ;)

If you know someone who can sew well, these patterns aren't difficult. I believe you can find them on the web-but I don't remember which site has the patterns. Try doing a search for them or I'll look when I get home (at work right now).

What's better is that they cost less, and you can pick the colors/fabric that complements you best.

And you may just start a trend when others see you wearing them ;)

Fresh as the air after a springtime rain.

[Cowgirl Up!]

If you could find it online, Arya, that would be GREAT. I contacted Hanc0ck's fabrics and they told me to contact the pattern company. If they can get the pattern Hanc0ck's will order it for me. And yes, bring back the 40's/50's!!! :dance:

I like that bottom one a lot too, Jesso. It would be great for things like piano recitals, or if I play at more school dinners next semester (because you know the diva is supposed to be the snazziest one :lol: ). I think it would look better in a light blue and the other one with the roses should be red. That would be hot.

No, no patterns. Sorry.

Have you tried going to thrift stores like the Salvation Army or Goodwill? Sometimes you can find vintage clothes in good condition for cheap. All they need is to be drycleaned/washed. I buy cheap, old sweaters at thrift stores and unravel them for the yarn to crochet & knit blankets and pillows. I save lots of money that way.

[chichimama]

Yeah, they're called uniforms.;)


:)) Believe it or not, I do dress like a girl when I'm at home. And wear nail polish and earrings.

I've been through one uniform change already from dungarees to utilities. And now the Navy is switching again. To digital blue camoflage. What the heck for?!! So we can hide in the water? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the SAR team trying to find us if we fall overboard? I just don't get it. :think:

Go ahead and laugh. I laugh over it all the time and make all kinds of cracks. It's hysterical. Another "brilliant idea". :mrgreen:

Seriously, we wear life vests (float coats) when we're on the flight deck. If we fall overboard, we can inflate the vest, turn on the strobe light and dispense fluorescent green dye in the water so we'll be seen.

They found out I believe 5 or 6 weeks after the season finale. Filming had been done for a long time. The ending was perfect to lead into season 3. The Sophie twist at the end just made me stare at the screen with my mouth open. I keep waiting to see if anyone else (Sci-Fi Channel) picks it up.

So I get my paycheck today and I know for a fact it's going to be pretty good especially with commission figured into it (gotta love selling those $2000 wedding sets) anyway I always said I wouldn't get that tattoo I wanted until I had a job and enough money. Well I've got a job and I know I have enough money. I'm thinking about getting it as a present for myself this Monday when I'm off work. I'm going to have to hint to my mom that I'm doing it though so she won't completley freak out like she did when I pierced my tragus (little cartilage bump on the ear).

it's just a little one in the small of my back. When I'm older I'll never wear a two piece and shirts will cover it up so no one will ever see it if I don't want them to, but I want to get one while I'm still young enough to have it and show it off for a few years.

"Hey mom, I'm going down to the tattoo parlor to get that orgy scene from Caligula on my back, wanna come along?"

After she peels herself off the ceiling you can tell her what you're REALLY getting and it won't seem so bad.:mrgreen:

lol yeah, too bad she lives 8 hours away and can only yell over the phone. But she won't tell me I can't do it. When ever I ask to do something she says "well you're almost 20 years old you can do whatever you want, even if it upsets me or your grandparents you need to make your own decisions" that's when I say "soooo what about a tattoo" and and she just looks me like she wants to tell me "no" but she won't because I'm "almost 20" and need to make my own decisions.

Hey do it. We all must learn from and experience our own choices. Some we are pleased for and some we regret. Time will tell on the tattoo one.

If I could

If I could
I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
Give you courage in a world of compromise
Yes, I would

If I could
I would teach you all the things I've never learned
And I'd help you cross the bridges that I've burned
Yes, I would

If I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I'll watch you grow, so I can let you go

If I could
I would help you make it through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears, babe
But I would If I could

If I could
In a time and place where you don't wanna be
You don't have to walk along this road with me
My yesterday won't have to be your way

If I knew
I'd try to change the world I brought you to
Now there isn't much more that I can do
But I would If I could

If I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I'll watch you grow, so I can let you go

If I could
I'd help you make it through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears
But I would If I could

I got my first one where I could easily hide it, so that I wouldn't regret it later in life. My next 2 were more visible. What's the design?

Sweating doesn't bother me. Passing out does. The heat index is 103 degrees! So the gym is about 98 degrees.

haha....coke slurpeee it is for me

[morticia_28_358]

it's hotter than 800 yards of hell here, i've drank enough water today to float a battleship

[Arya]

Yea, it's steamy here too.

On Saturday I am doing a Celtic/Scottish performance with the troupe, outside. It's going to be around 90 degrees that day. At least we are in the shade, but phew!

Our outfits are long sleeved (traditional) and stockings under the skirts....Plus doing all the leg work and dancing around in the heat doesn't help!

But we do have a lot of fun, and the crowds enjoy the show. We do some traditional folk dances, but throw in more recognizable ones like Riverdance and Victory (from Lord of the Dance).

Just hope I don't sweat on anyone! Har Har.

[Fire Watch]

The heat index here today was about 110..I love it.
