Comments: TooT- TooT. Well I managed a Angel tree for the Salvation Army again this year as I have for the last 10 years and collected $14,500. worth of gifts for children in the metroplex. What a thrill knowing those kids will get something on Christmas day.
Comments: That's great news about Hudson Toni. What a great Christmas present for your son & dtr n law, as well as you & Bruce!!!! BTW Toni . . . are you also bringing Johnny with you?
Comments: SNL....I'll be over Sunday around noon with wrapping paper, bow maker, etc. and you can wrap presents for six grandchildren since you'll be displaced! Should be a snap! Ugh! I've already mailed five huge boxes to Alaska this week containing wrapped gifts for four grandones. I think next year we will buy 1 gift and 1 gift card for each of the Alaska grandones! It costs a small fortune to mail packages to Alaska! For some reason we tend to forget the shipping costs when we get carried away at ToysRUs..lol. Update on Hudson - he did an about-face - now he's breathing totally on his own with no help whatsoever! He began at 3 lb. 6 oz, went down to 3 lbs., and now he's back up to 3 lbs. 9 oz. We appreciate all of the thoughts and prayers! Here's another miracle - Hudson can turn his head from side to side during his kangaroo time with his parents! The doctors and nurses were very surprised! 
Comments: Prof. Smiley - - - You still got it!
Comments: It was the last day before the Christmas Holidays. By noon students had turned in all of their work, finished their parties and had nothing more to do. All of the children were restless and the teacher decides to have an early dismissal. She addresses the class and says " Whoever answers my question first and correctly may leave early today." Little Jack thinks " Good, I'm smart so this should be easy." Teacher: Who said 'Four score and seven years ago'? Before Jack can open his mouth, Susie says," Abraham Lincoln" Teacher: That's right, Susie, you are dismissed. Jack is mad but knows he will get the next one. Teacher: Who said " I have a dream"? Again, Mary answers quickly " Martin Luther King" Teacher: That's right Mary, You can go. Jack is madder than ever because he knew both answers. Teacher: Who said " Ask not what your country can do for you"? Before Jack can open his mouth, Nancy says " John F. Kennedy". Teacher: That's right Nancy, you may also leave. Jack is boiling mad and when the teacher turns her back he yells out " I wish all these dumb Witches would keep their mouths shut!" The teacher whirls around and says "Who said that" Jack says " Tiger Woods..... See you in January.
Comments: Oh Susan, so is the life of the unemployed. I hope you find a job soon, but you're really gng to miss sitting at the computer in your PJs & house shoes!! Jack, as long as your bringing Johnny with you . . . come on over about noon Sunday & we might work out something! Cowboys play Sat nite, so I'll have absolutely nothing to do on Sunday.
Comments: SNL as you still have some shopping to do, I'm emailing my shopping list to you. Since you are going out anyway I'm sure you will enjoy picking up these things for me. I haven't had a chance to start yet. Go head and get some paper and ribbon too. If you continue to have time available feel free to wrap them. I know how much you enjoy doing all these things, so there is no need to thank me. Let me know when they are ready and I'll swing by with Johnny Walker and pick them up.
Comments: SNL, I'm here. I just got up. I might go back to bed.
Comments: So, has everyone gone Christmas shopping???? I've got mine done except for 2 gifts. Got a few wrapped, but not many. C'mon . . . snap out of it & perk up. Where's Crazy Lady & Lola & Prof Smiley, they always spice things up! Pool Guy, you golfing or hiding out?
Comments: Donna - God will help you & your dtr find a way to feed, clothe & raise those 3 children! Sometimes God uses other people as instruments to carry out his wishes. . . glad we could be one of Gods instruments. May you, your daughter & the children have a great Christmas. Ho, Ho, Ho . . . Merry Christmas to all my GB Friends!!
Comments: I have the kindest, most generous, caring friends God ever put on the face of this earth. Because of you this will be the best Christmas my babies could ever imagine. They were in such need of winter clothes and new shoes. I will never be able to thank you enough. God blessed me with wonderful friends and I am so lucky to have each and every one of you. My family could not believe that friends you haven't seen in over forty years could be so kind. I explained how special you all are and how we all have a bond that time cannot take away. Thank you so very much and God bless each and every one of you. I love you all, Donna
Comments: Loooove the name, Lola! It suits you!
Comments: The other night the weatherman (and you know how good they are) said that in pattern we are in this year (El Nina?) we would have our worst weather early instead of late. So maybe that means we will have a cold December and early January and miss those Jan and Feb ice storms. And maybe an early spring!! I think Lola was a mistype. I think he meant Lota LaPrada. Gary, I'm sure when you write your book McGee and Bovie will be most worried, but I think all of us will be on pins until we read it ourselves. Be kind to your oldest friends!!!
Comments: Rod -- you sure have 2 handsome grandones. They are being so good for Santa. LOLA -- where'd you come up with that name.
Comments: Nice to see Hawkins is just as observant & on top of things as he's always been!!  If you'd like to contact the tech, take your choice of names . . . Shailendran, Daniel, girl whose name I never understood, Pokich or Chundra.  As I said, it wasn't a good week!!!  Buuuurrrr it's cold here in Richardson. Supposed to be colder tonight. November was beautiful, but Dec has definitely brought old man winter. |
This year we bought lighter weight gifts & will actually be going to Austin Fri mrng & coming bk Sat nite. Gas is less than shipping!!!
