I am not a card player, mostly played board games and dominos. Can't get enough of Mah Jongg.

Nonie and Bare; No playing "Old Maid" for you two. We can all get together and teach you. Bright and Susan too. Sam is a master and a good teacher. We will have so much fun playing ,chatting ,eating , gossiping....... :bigthumbsup: :bigthumbsup:

What a good looking group for lunch. Makes my heart warm to see some of my dear friends together like that. Few missing, but we will be there some other time.

Now Mahjong...has anyone ever played Bunco? Could you have several tables, in Mahjong, play a round or so and move to the next table/partner like you do in Bunco? This group is growing. Does that work?

Oh, can we have dorky little prizes????? I have some white elephants I can't toss but could easily give as prizes...http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/j...k/36_11_61.gif laughing, cause now someone else would be stuck with it...oh especially Nonie, she couldn't throw it away either.

Beady,

Thanks for the vote of confidence!

Even if I cant catch on to the game I will be an active participant in the chatting, eating and gossiping, Im an expert in those departments. ::),


beady 06-18-2008 09:37 PM

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
No fair Susan...... we've already gotten rid of our white elephants. ::) ::)


Not a bad idea ......moving from table to table. I was in a game Sunday with 2 tables, one red, one black. The hostess had eight playing cards from a deck ....4 black,4 red, you drew a card and played at the coresponding table.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
We have had Euchre parties with large groups of friends. You move table to table and it's so much fun! In fact, Mr. Bright knows how to set up the tables so no one has the same partner twice during the evening. Maybe we could Mah Jong one time, Bunco another, and Euchre another.

As for white elephant gifts...http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/h...n/confused.gif

Bright... could you do me a favor and edit out the double chin...... doh doh

not a flattering photo of me, the rest of you all look great..... Had fun, nice lunching with the ladies and gents.

You are beautiful! Wasn't it a fun afternoon? I'm hoping we all can do it again sometime soon.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
It was fun for me to meet three great ladies (and two fine gents). Sam; Bright and Beady made me feel welcomed. It's hard being brand new, getting lost walking out the front door, not knowing anyone, etc. To be invited out to lunch to meet friends I've posted with for so long now, made for a wonderful and nice day for me. Thanks!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
I think this is a good thing, today I watched as the auctioneers loaded up a huge moving van chocked full to the top with a collection of treasures from the past 37 years. They also took away Eng. guys 1950 ford pickup that he so lovingly restored. I didnt feel bad really, just couldnt believe how much a family can accumulate over the years.

As I look around I realize that there is so much more that needs to GO and this was just the beginning.

Chels, ya listening GF. Its gone, arent ya proud of me??? :)

renielarson 06-18-2008 10:58 PM

Nonie

Did you choke up a little bit as the truck was driving away? I think I would have and know my day is coming soon.

Barefoot 06-18-2008 11:10 PM

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
Sounds like you had a wonderful lunch .. nice to see the happy faces
that I miss so much.

Nonie .. That truck driving away full of your treasures brings you closer to living in TV. Good for you. Some day soon you'll all be there full time; and Mom2Five and I will still be exiled to Canada every six months.

But six months in the Bubble is better than nothing. ;)

It's so nice to see a picture with some of the peeps from TOTV. Faces with names is great. What a nice welcome for you Nanci.

beady 06-19-2008 01:15 AM

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
Nonie......., I remember the day I sent my treasures off to auction....exciting,heartbreaking,cleansing and hopeful all at once. Oh, and overwhelming also.
But guess what I am still here and better than ever. I have bought some new treasures with the proceeds from the old treasures and that feels really good. So, march on and pretty soon we will be careening(someone else can drive cause I will have to close my eyes :yikes:) over the bridge to visit you and your new treasures in TV.

I had a great day. I had lunch with my friends then went to Oakwood this evening with more friends. What a lovely day and evening. I got home and went on TOTV to find Mc and Bucco spanking me. Oh well..guess I've been bad. :duck: 1rnfl

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
Nonie! I'm so proud of you I could :edit: You go girl! You'll be a "frog" before you know it or Engineer Guy will be in the crosshairs of my kitten growl!

Had a wonderful dinner out with good friends. Lots of good food and laughs! (See what you're missing ms. Nonie???) Just trying to keep you motivated. :-*

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
I reread all the sweet things and heart felt stories people wrote on the father's memories thread. That made me feel loved.

Nomie-you are one sweet lady. Can't wait to see you again.

Chel-Can't wait to see you again too. I don't bother with political anymore. Although you never know...

Hugh "Thank you" to Rhonda who put Snow White on for me. Another person I can't wait to see.

Life is good.

Sam I am sorry you took it that way. ??? I was just responding to what you said. :o I don't believe in spanking. :)

Sad,
Found some new message from Bright and Chel, along with a week of Sam and I have lost it. Read about my childhood if you want to know why. I have cried for hours. I always stick up for the underdog and I always lose....So I give up. I am so hurt. You won Sam.

Today, I took a wonderful, long afternoon nap. hmmmm, I love afternoon naps! ;)

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
I took my dogs for their daily walk and marveled at how overjoyed they get when they get taken on the same walk every day. And how much enjoyment they get out of running through the grass and seeing an occasional deer. Life for them is always "living in the moment". I wish we could all share their sense of joy.


nONIE 06-20-2008 01:08 AM

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
And I wish we could all live in the moment, thats a tough one! Dogs sure have the right idea.

Ya listening Fumar?

chelsea24 06-20-2008 03:36 AM

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 
Nonie, Fumar can't hear you. He's too busy munching on a paw! LOL :o

Just went on a beautiful boatride on the kommonawannalaya, our neighbors party boat.

The water was like a sheet of glass, looks like a big storm brewing now over Cayuga lake. looking really ugly!

Was going to go to the beach, but the forecast changed that. Nonie that party boat sounds :redface: like it was named after an X rated flick!! Don't tell me its an old indian name, cause I will not believe you......OMG!!!!

Nonie

The people who named their boat kommonawannalaya were geniuses...I am laughing so hard here!

I believe you, Nonie...most appropriate Hawaiian name, for sure! http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/h...n/36_27_51.gif

I finally saw the movie "Sex and the City" tonight. There wasn't much of a plot, but I enjoyed it so much. Fireboy went to "Get Smart".
I love the fact that four women can be really great friends for such a long time. Saw previews of "He's Not Really Into You" with Jennifer Anniston and "The Women" with Meg Ryan. Lots of good chick flicks coming up.

Went to KB's with our lovely neighbors and ran into many friends. It felt really good because 8 mos. ago I felt like I would never meet anyone. Feels like home at last. :bigthumbsup:
