Chat's open house

Mike was assigned chat notes by Kburch but said something about hanging out with dead people instead.

Zebramom is home knitting a kburch voodoo doll as KB had the nerve to cross through the cheese state without dropping by.

Mike expected Lylac to show for chat while we were discussing attire for the October Mole fest which is optional being the airlines new luggage fees.

Lylac did pop in later lightening fast but refused to stay(something about power surges requiring her to turn off the computer)

Chat is now referred to as open house cause lots of people come for short periods of time.

The HOT TOPIC was where the heck is KERBY? The flood news from his part of town is NOT good. Kerby, if you are around, you need to phone home.

Jenny(who's username I will never memorize)dropped by with news of her son's party success.

Suz was missed but her famous typos were present. Suz is always so nice about sharing.

Lorraine, Crick, Barky, Amyanne, Aspen, kansas girl, Indy, and many others owe us chocolate and cowboys.

Kay had sad news but later went house shopping. She is determined to by the perfect party house for the SNPTF(thanks kay). Oh, and her son is on occassion extremely sweet and really does love his mommy.

Mrs red visited as well.

Not sure who I forgot with all the coming and going you get with an open house like I apparently was hosting in chat. Don't miss the next open house on Tuesday who's theme will be-"Who is under water this time?"

When I had to leave to go to the hardware store in search of door knobs I promised to come back - and did, but by then it was 10:30 left coast time, and there was no one in ANY chat room! The door installation guys are here and my bedroom now looks gorgeous (door-wise, anyway, and there's now a LOCK on it!) and the front door is a work in progress. Poor dawgs have been locked in C's room for 5 hours now, and I'm sure they have to pee! C chortled about having broken almost every door in the house (for some reason he missed the bathroom!) and I told him that was nothing to be proud of! Oh, and by the way, I discovered a new girl hiding in C's room at 12:30 last night! She refused to tell me who she was, and RAN when I told her to get out. It's feeling like a long time until March (C's 18th . . .)

Those must be some really great doors as your BTW was a bit too calm.

"BTW, I found a strange GIRL in my sons room" sounds as casual as BTW I found my other shoe.....Share your drugs with the rest of us, Kay!

We made it through the storms, but not without a lot of lights on..lights off games. I REALLY wanted to stay longer, but figured that if i didn't leave when I did, my ole friend Ms Puter may have gotten fried. Then I'd be SOL or CGOL

Tell C next time to hide you a big hunky stud in your room...gotta test them locks ya know

I actually tried to get on several times. But my stupid satalite had other ideas. It would time out before it would finish loading chat! So I finally gave up.

Your brain cells missed me too! hee

I had guests this week and mama always taught me to be a good hostess and not desert your guests for chat.

Happy Father's Day to all you men on here!

Well Crick, your mama has obviously never been in some of our chat sessions.

You still have working brain cells? NO Fair, I want some! All of mine seemed to have died off during last nights screamfest. The other kids turned the TV up so they could drown him out and all that noise did me in.

momraine, I have a wonderful Andre Boticelli that I put into my CD player, then use headphones. They can scream, whine, cry, watch cartoons (oh, I had the noise of cartoons), what ever. I am blissfully immersed in beautiful music.
