Hey Kids.. we are home...

It was a Catholic funeral... :o The Priest reminded me of Scott...

:o :lol:

Well Scott in about 10 years anyways. It was weird.. because I was thinking he doe's not sound like Scott... :thinking: As if I know what Scott sounds like. :?

I can't say I have intentionally done it.. but I think each of you have a voice in my head... :thinking:

Nice Scooter Paul..

If you are to heavy for those tires.. you really need to loose weight.

Ahh you did say wheels.. and those wheels might not be that rugged.. tubes and tires should hold a LOT.. and and they roll so much faster than hard rubber tires would.

So why didn't you build two of them.. :thinking:

I am headed to work. And then I go to evil-mart for a few things. Let's see...I need black stockings to go with my black skirt and I need to get some groceries for me and hubby and then some ingrediernts for a dish I'm making. On Sunday, I am going with my Mom to my cousin's bridal shower...we are 2 of the hostesses and I think it will be nice. I also need to wrap the gift my hubby and I got for them.


It is wild that many of you have snow....it is expected to get into the 70's here today :o I'm ready for a little sunshine myself.

On a side note....yesterday I was helping a customer....a regular customer.... at the store where I work and he told me that I am getting gray hair :x
:lol: I mean, I know that these guys see me everyday and think they really know me well and I do have a fondness for several who I see everyday and who are really kind and sweet....but not this guy (or "sit in corner and look at porn and think no one else knows this" guy, as I sometimes call him)....on the outside, I laughed it off, but, on the inside, :oops: :roll: I am....well :thumbdown: thinking about going to the salon....I had seen the grays myself and had thought about it before anyway....


You would look nice with some grey.. :thinking: :D
