How silly of me not to recognize him from TV. Must mean my eye site is going also.

Sam :agree: :agree: :agree: :agree: :agree: :agree: with you

JohnnyM - ironically on the Travel Forum I was politically incorrect also. I :redface: :redface: :redface:. I referred to a he as she - now I will write s/he. It is hard to know by some names :dontknow: the gender of the person.

I did not think to go to their profile to look, and than I :redface: :redface: :redface: even redder when I realized I knew who it was from Crisper's.

So from me to all of you where I have been politically incorrect :bow: :bow:. Please accept.

Question - I know how to do s/he, wo/man is there one for him/her?

OMG - this is not the Political Forum - hope :cop: doesn't realize it.

Thank you Donna, that is more than I deserve.

HB have you been drinking that tree sap too. What were you trying to say?

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Johnny, you know you're one of us. You created the sistah look and our movie avatars.
Like I said, you (like my husband) are very secure in your masculinity. You get this.. :#1:

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Thanks Sam, I guess I was starting to feel a little insecure with this house thing going on. It's Okay, I'm back. You are all too good to me.

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Johnny, you have the wonderful ability to get in touch with your "softer" side without anyone having any doubt you're all male. A wonderful trait. So, stay cool, hang tight and just be there, bruddah!!!


HB, I always liked shim for she/him.

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Thank you RW

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Johnny, If you will only learn to play mah jong..........more men are doing it now. Again, it's those with enough testosterone to not care what the other guys say.

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Hey, Mom2Five, a big shout out from TV. How is Canada??? We miss you. Sammie

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Happy Talk.....just returned to the TV bubble last night after a week 'up North'; after a year and a half, our house up there finally sold and we closed on it yesterday. Yippeee....what a relief to finally have that done and that chapter closed out. Although I wouldn't trade the happy times we've spent here in TV for the past 18 months for anything, the uncertainty of when (and sometimes if) the house would sell was nervewracking. Fortunately, we had friends/caretakers living in it and it was not a significant financial drain to carry both houses.

So, for JohnnyM, Scottke, Ouma, Peggy D, SusanandTom, KathieI, Mikark and all the others out there trying to sell a house to get to TV, it can (and will!!) get done. Keep the faith.

Life back in the bubble is good. It felt so wonderful to return to the Villages...clean air, golf carts, friendly people, nice house, etc -- this is indeed home. I don't plan to nor want to go anywhere else til the TOTV cruise in Sept. Life is good.

Happy, Happy

Last day of school...

Took all the 3rd graders (140 of them) into the hallway, played the Cha-Cha Slide as loud as my cd player would allow, and did the Cha-Cha slide with them!

Parents gathered round smiling and laughing while watching their children and ME get funky, clapping our hands, hopping, stomping, getting down low and cha-chaing altogether.

It was a fun morning and I felt good! The kids boarded the buses with windows down, huge smiles, big waves, and summer fun waiting.

I was smiling too...good way to end the year!

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Congrat's Bright on another successful year
Thanks 07 for the vote of confidence and congrat's on your home sale
And Sam, I think mah jong would be pushing the envelope for me but I would consider it if Barbara wanted to try too...

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Today was so great. 90 degrees up north, hot and humid just like TV.

Took our first boat ride across the lake today, it was wonderful. I forgot how good it feels to be out on the water on a hot summer day. Life is good and my cup was almost full! :bigthumbsup: No, I guess it was full!

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Bright..... congrats on another year completed. What a great way for the year to end.It must have been a blast!!
It is teachers like you that the kids will remember with fondness, and parents who will thank their lucky stars for an educator that cares so much about their kids.

Priceless. :bigthumbsup: :bigthumbsup:

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Johnny, Barbara will love mahjong. Ask Chels and Beady. I believe the ladies are addicted.

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Nonie

The water and a boat ride is what I love most about northern summers..what I'll miss most leaving Michigan for Florida. And...the freedom to jump into the water (and float lazily) without fearing alligators. I'd never feel comfortable doing that in Florida.

We plan to spend the weekend on the water...temps at 90...hot, hot, hot

Tomorrow...with the grandsons

Sunday...with neighbors and friends

It will be a glorious weekend, for sure.

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Johnny.....Sam got it right, I am definately addicted. Love the game. 040 Wish I had taken an old friends advise and learned to play years ago.

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Thanks Sam, I need to get Barbara involved with some fun activities. She doesn't do sports and that's all I do. I am sure she would love to try mahjong but I won't tell her until we are in TV. Thanks ;)

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Thanks Beady, it gives me something to look forward to knowing she would be safe with you guy's and would enjoy herself.

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Johnny, MahJongg is the best! And Barbara will love it. I'm not a sports person either. Tell her the more the merrier. :bigthumbsup:

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Count me in also.

HB

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Villages07 - congrats on the big move. We are getting some activity on our house. Maybe the right person will come through soon. I'm alaready packing our 24 years of accumlation and stacking boxes so that we can make a quick get away when the time comes. HOT HOT here today with heat index around 104. Is this TV?

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Thanks Chels and ladies, I am sure she will love to try.....

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

I made those sticky buns this AM. .. in between pool time and firing off another post on TOTV. I had to make some for my next door neighbor, Bill. He is heading to Las Vegas in the AM to represent TV in a golf Long Drive contest. He hits the ball so hard that his feet come off the ground. I told him to eat two. That should add enough weight to his butt to keep him grounded. Please join me in wishing Bill"The Hammer" Herrick good luck. I think the top prize is 100K. As I have mentioned before, he cooks for us many times a week. If he wins maybe we can have some of that thar Beluga cavier on top of our crackers. ;)

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

His name is Herrick Mine is Kerrick... ;)

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

So if you had married Bill, you'd be Donna Kerrrick Herrick. That's catchy!!

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Yes, it's "catchy" and we must not forget....aka Julia.

:dontknow: ;D ;) :) wav

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Bright,

It must ba a very freeing feeling!!! 040

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Carmen, with all due respect, does anyone ever know what you are talking about? Are your conversations manifested in what you feel, when you feel it. Do you just blurt things out because it makes you feel good? Who are you addressing in your quote or am I totally missing a page on this thread?

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Johnny,

I know what she is talking about, I just dont know why? :dontknow:

Sorry Carmen, I guess Im puzzled again!

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Nonie I miss your Kill Bill pose... So what is she talking about?

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

Hey gang .. please don't discourage Carmen from sharing her thoughts with us. This thread is meant for Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad. I like to think of this thread as being a safe, non-threatening place to share our thoughts and feelings. lovehorse

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

I'm sorry Carmen, I didn't mean to question your post. I was confused. The end result is you feel good again :bigthumbsup:

Re: Chatters Talk: Happy or Sad
 

OMG Johnny, Im a person of few words and to explain would take all night.
I loved the kill Bill pose, it will come back again some day, meantime I just love looking at my sweet little Clara. :)
