"YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD

Morning Beagle. Good night Izzieliz. Baby bump coming on nicely thank you. Already started buying "pink" things. Missy beating me in Jinky. Glad S-boy feeling better.

Reading along, looking at pix, watching the fun.

Tuesday and I'm already looking forward to the weekend. Another good concert coming up - I love it once the concert season gets going. Friday night, brendalee and I will be off to "participate in"





this is usually my favourite concert of the season

I'm feeling giddy already

That sounds wonderful Beth....okay "sackbut" - I forget about that horrendously named instrument...but I looked it up on Wikpedia (I know - questionable - but it seems like it makes sense to me)


basically - trombone....I wonder how different it sounds from the trombone? Am awfully curious.

I am off to work. My yard is all Christmassy - I am tired though.....blah.

I hope y'all have a great day - I will see you later maybe!
missy

Hey there crew

oh Bethie - sounds simply delightful girlie - you 'n Brendalee will have a great time. So glad you have each other... how's Brendalee doing these days - she k? Hugs to you all in Canadaland x

Mis - oh, would love to see your yard hunni.... bet the boys are getting so excited now. When do they break up from school? HA... made me laugh about the leaves.... I have leaves everywhere - my garden would looked undressed without the leaves Gosh... what a weird instrument name a? Glad you posted that... had no idea what it was. Trombone - cooooooool.

Kids are going their "Oliver" tomorrow - oh, they are so brilliant - they have their dress rehearsal in the morning and the papers are coming to take photos - and I shall be videoing it. Oliver and The Artful Dodger are fantastic - so good to see the kids loving their schooldays - it's such a happy school to be at. I've been doing the school website and posting pics of "things we have done" - they make the best "odds and sods" - very creative.

BEAgle... you still asleep... gonna have to sign off again - but will be back in a bit. Hugs to y'all. Indeedee - great that daughter is doing well - ohhhhhhh... little PINK things.... love it... so exciting. x

Good morning Izzie, Beagle is wide awake, long and busy day ahead. Would love to see S-boy in his play, I still have photos of my M-boy in a school play, HMS Pinnafore.

Hey BEAgle... oh no... not S-boys school, the primary school I work at. S-boy started in big school this term He's boarding there tonite..... oh.... gosh, I gotta call him in 5 mins... gotta go... will be back. x

Sorry for the misunderstanding Captain, enjoy it just the same. Izzie must tell you about my two little trees, they're full of fruit, can't believe my eyes, must be all that TLC I'm giving them. How lovely is that. Will get the camera out in due course and see if I can match you in detail photography.

HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW LOVELY IS THAT. WE BORE.... FRUIT!!!!!!!! So funny - love it! Now, I really need to see said fruit. Gosh - it's amazing what a little TLC can do a?

It's been one of those days. We had a friend over after school...he was here 5 minutes then busted his head open on a book case. I feel horrible...I think he is going to have to have stitches - his Mom came over and got him and is taking him to the dr. now. Boys...

Heads bleed a lot - it's everywhere. Poor baby. He was okay until his mom said he needed to go to the dr and get stitches...then he started wailing - Poor poor little boy.

Well...I am beat. I am going to go clean up and maybe I will see you all later...
missy

Oh dear Mis.... poor wee fella - boyz...... it's bad enough when it's your own but there's a hugely horrible feeling when it's another child at your house - you probably feel worse right now than the boy and the mom put together... heads do bleed heaps, but he will be fine hunni. Kids are so resilient as well - far more so than we are - he'll be quite proud of his patched up head. Don't worry sweet Dixie - boys certainly will be boys. x

Dixie girl I know how you're feeling, all will be right, don't you worry.

I am waiting for them to call me to let me know how he's doing. I can't do anything right now...

after reading about you trials and tribulations, i couldn't resist the post in the christmas present thread

isn't waiting for news a pain

I had a feeling this is what you were talking about...it is horrible. I can't focus on anything...thoughts - everything all scattered. Can't wait until she calls.

One of my kids just asked me what a douche bag was - I have to say I am not sure exactly. Don't want to know really. I just told him it didn't sound like something he should use anymore. It truly is an ugly phrase isn't it? yikes.

Douche Bag

Douche bag, or simply douche, is considered to be a pejorative term in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, the Philippines, and the United States. The slang usage of the term dates back to the 1960s. The metaphor of identifying a person as a douche is intended to associate a variety of negative qualities, specifically arrogance and malice.

Thanks dj - I knew what a douche was - just not a douche bag and I just didn't want to explain it to an 8 year old quite honestly.

understandable

Hey hunni...

I just signed back on... oh... wish you had heard something - I'm sure he'll be alright Mis, try not to worry. Can you call his Mom on her mobile?

love you Mis - please try not to worry. x

Hey Mis,

Waiting is hard. Your imagination is left to fill in the blanks when wondering how it's going.

Friend will be fine. By tomorrow he'll be showing off his stitches at school.

Hugs, hun. To you and to little friend.
