Looks like I was the last person in last night and first this morning. Bertha and I have your steaming hot caffeinated goodness ready for you after she's been rinsed with the sludge saved for Carl. The kettle is on for a fresh pot of tea for both Scotts and the lovely TG. I've brought some Christmas cookies for you. I have chocolate chip, peanut butter, peanut butter chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, and sugar cookies. I'm doing ginger bread houses today. We will see how that goes. I can't believe tomorrow bus already Christmas Eve. My littley is getting very excited. I'm going to have my tea and enjoy the peace and quiet for a little while longer.
Jeff so sorry to hear about your dad. I'm glad he's out of surgery and doing better. Yes, everybody hug those you love a little tighter. Life is way to precious. I wrote a poem on the other side but I don't know when it will be verified. I hope everyone else is doing well and ready for Christmas. Not sure if anyone here celebrates but Happy Hanukkah. I'd love some hot tea please.
Good morning and Happy Sunday. I've gathered all the mugs and left them to soak as I set Bertha abrew with her caffeinated greatness. The kettle is on for both Scotts and TG. A coffee awaits the beautiful Miss Curvy. I really want to get my comp story done but just not sure I can. This has been a hard week. My s/o lost a family member last weekend and I lost a school friend yesterday. Both to Cancer, one fought a long hard battle with breast cancer and the other a very short battle with an extremely rare form of. Life is so precious so please hug your loved ones close.
Now I'm going to have my tea and stare at my screen to see if the words will come. Hugs to all.
I think the ones that have been mentioned are all very deserving of this and I'd like to add Chrism for his willingness to help others as well as his wonderful stories he's posted.
Sprite for being a lovely person who is there for anyone that needs a friend and her fun nature.
I'm sure there is so many more that could be nominated. Lush has lots of lovely people here.
Congratulations beautiful Miss Curvy. You're amazing.
Good morning. BB is rinsed and de-sludged. Of course put aside for Carl. I
She is refilled and ready to give you your morning caffeine jolt. The kettle is on for tea.
G- I am trying to take care of me. It's hard with the holidays and all I have to do for that. Tonight my littley is singing in the school Christmas concert. She is excited.
I'm going to have some tea before my day starts. Simmie I hope your visit to the Dr goes well and pneumonia is all gone. I hope everyone has a wonderful day. (Hugs)
Good morning, thank you for the hot tea beautiful Miss Curvy. Sorry I've been MIA for awhile but real life has given me another blow. My mom had a mild heart attack. She is only 58. She has congestive heart failure with only 40% of her blood being pumped through her heart. She also has blockages. She is staying with us for now so she isn't under any stress. I now have my mom, mother-in-law, s/o, littley, and occasionally my youngest son. This is going to be a long holiday season.
On a better note my littley performed a tap routine at a tree lighting. She is so cute. She also started a second dance class which is ballet. Tomorrow is one of those Christmas concerts that are in school. She has an amazing voice.
We put our tree up yesterday and tonight my girl is going to help me decorate. I'm trying to keep my sanity and enjoy the holiday. Thank you all for being here.
Simmie I hope you are feeling better and I'm so sorry about your dog. TG and Lilly my son's gf is pregnant and due January 9. She is very anxious as well and has been having Braxton Hicks contractions for a couple weeks. We just keep hoping he stays put for awhile.
Good morning beautiful Miss Curvy and Grace. Thank you for the tea. I'll drink it as I get my littley ready for school. Happy Friday. Enjoy your day.
Good morning all Rump's regulars. After some coercion Bertha has been de-sludged and rinsed out. Sludge saved of course for Carl. She is gurgling with her caffeinated goodness for all who enter. The kettle is on and ready for us tea drinkers. I'm sure TG and both Scotts will be along shortly for some. Miss Curvy put your feet up I got the mugs today, both washed and dried. I believe I have some brownies and strawberry cheesecake here.
I woke up feeling a little refreshed this morning. I actually slept for five hours. Ask me later and I'm sure I'll be exhausted. Hoping to get some writing done today. We will see. My littley's performance was postponed until next week. It was cold, wet and slushy. Not good weather for tap dancing.
Jeff I'm glad you're on the mend. We have coyotes here in Jersey. I live on 12 acres of land, I'm set away from the town but have seen them up there as well. We used to have chickens and between the coyotes, fox, raccoons, and owls we had lost them all.
Well I sure hope everyone has a wonderful day. (Hugs)
Good morning. Looks like I'm the first one here today. Sorry about that long post last night. I just could not sleep. Anyway Bertha is gurgling with her caffeinated goodness after I de-sludged and rinsed her out. Of course, I saved the sludge for Carl or anyone who needs a kick. The kettle is on for TG and the Scott's, as well. I'm sharing apple pie and mixed berry pie today.
The mugs are washed, rinsed and air drying. What can I get ya lovely people? Beer, whine, fine lickers?
My day is finally done and I'm exhausted. I spent almost twelve hours with my brothers and I think I was glad to see them go. We had so much company throughout the day. Both my boys and their significant others stopped in as well as a young girl that I considered a daughter is in town from upstate NY, her husband is in the Army, they came with their girls to visit as well. I also braved Walmart this evening and got most of my Christmas shopping done. I hope all who celebrated today had a great day.
Double post, sorry. I'll use this one to ask for a drink to help me sleep please.
