I WISH it were mine! LOL I'm just letting my garage be used. It actually belongs to one of the officers with whom my brother works - I DO have the key, though! It was up here to get the clutch fixed - which it was.

You can come up and live at my house if you would like - I'll even clean it up for you! LOL You can help me make my house an AOII house - I'm thinking of how to decorate so I think AOII would be perfect! I'd even let you have Diet Coke in my house! LOL

Might my mom actually have gotten me something frivolous (like and AOII piece of jewelry I put on my wish list!) for Christmas?! There were little jewelry like boxes under the tream with my name on them. . .

I get to meet my brother's girlfriend on Thursday!! This is really the only girlfriend that he has brought to meet the family. We're borrowing a snowmobile so Brian can take her for a ride as well as ice skating, hanging out with the girls (my cousins daughters), etc. Yeah!! :)

Silver, I'm so sorry you are out of Diet Coke. Hopefully you have rectified this grave situation by this time of night.

If you come up to Ohio I will gladly share my Diet Coke with you.

Thankfully, this dire situation was rectified before I began having withdrawal symptoms. Mr. Silver drove out to Wal-mart in the middle of the night just to get me a case of "baby bottles" of DC.
Much like my "faux jewelry allergy," my Diet Coke withdrawals can cause all manner of symptoms including general household distress!
AOIIalum, you had better watch out! You never know when SilverMom and I might just randomly show up! ;)
Beryana, here is hoping that you have MANY AOII treats under the tree! I will gladly help you decorate your AOII House! I think we will stop just shy of an AOII toilet brush (Stella rolls in her grave at the idea...)
Much happiness to my sisters.
Silver

Trust me ladies, you DO NOT want to encounter me without a ready supply of Diet Coke. It's a terribly frightening sight.

I'm glad Mr. Silver takes such good care of you!

PS--You so know that the welcome mat is out, as long as you can tolerate a spoiled rotten 80lb. puppy girl who thinks she's queen of the castle :D

Yeah! A national disaster has be averted! LOL Mr. Silver IS very good to you - where can I find me one?! LOL

I would make it stop before getting an AOII toilet brush (what would Shelli say if we called her up and suggested a TOILET BRUSH for the emporium?!) Though, my bathroom is various shades a blue - which red roses looks beautifully against. Most of the rest of my house is a cream (you know, the neutral colors to sell a house type colors!) except the kitchen which is just plain ugly right now (but can't afford the redo of the kitchen quite yet - and the roof will have to come first!) Anyway, I digress! So, Silver, when are you coming up to help decorate my house?! LOL

Snark is just a glorious word.

Watching an 18 month old little girl teeter around in heels and pearls is precious - not that she isn't any other time!

Today has been one of those days that I'm just beyond blessed to be an AOII.

Curling is actually a tough sport (and NOT just to understand!)!! It really takes skill and talent to even just balance while sliding down the ice - skill and talent, I might add, that I DON'T have (I twisted my knee attempting to slide the stone down the ice yesterday).

Speaking of curling, the movie called Men with Brooms was utterly hysterical...

Never rely on common sense when dealing the a payroll department ARGH!!!!

Doing income taxes is fun - watching the refund $$ amount increase is the best! (yes, I'm getting a rather large refund and I'm EXCITED because then I can actually put something into savings, pay property taxes, etc. :) )

It would be so nice to get some sleep right now!

I'm going to physically injure the next person who tells me to "sleep when the baby sleeps"--and do exactly what with the other two? IF I could sleep through the chaos that they cause, I'm quite certain I would wake up to find the house in shambles (not that it isn't already).

She's six weeks old now...isn't it time for her to sleep through the night?!

Oh lovely! Just what I wanted to hear! lol

I'm sorry it's so rough. I'm sure I'll be crying on your shoulder in 100 days!

Popular people always have full mailboxes! (Silver, clean out your mailbox!!!)
