Shoot the Breeze With the Cooler Crew - Peoplesforum Edition

ha.....

VJ...you and I need to go to a bar some sunday during the football season.....

heh.. yeah... thats always a  fun thing to do.

Ares is right here and he says that in a post 'somewhere' in this thread, he said 'egram me for directions' .... (I am giving Ares $#!+ :P) -- But hey VJ, I woulda come and got you. sorry we missed you.

heard the Golden Star has been found...any details anyone?

I was having dinner with my parents at McCormick & Schmick's.  No football shindig for me either.

Good Evening!

Sorry we missed the gathering at ares and TCs place. 

We had a 3 season porch added to our place up north.  The work the contractor is doing is just about done.  Good thing cuz our check book is running low too. 

$10,000 medallion money would come in very handy!  How long is it now till the WC hunt?

Digger Dawg - hope your wait is over soon. 

And how the heck did the weekend pass by so quickly?!?!?!  UGH!!!!!!

 

 

I want to hear all about the party! 

Football was great! thanks for hosting Treasure Chest and Ares.
Thats Awsome Terry! Congratulations on the new addition :)

anyone seen Digger around here? or ESD? anytime they dont post I begin to wonder if they are at the hospital.

What hospital will they be at? anyone know?

Yes, Thanks Ares and TC for your wonderful hosting.  Didn't really watch the game. I don't really understand it anyway but it was nice meeting more of the crew.  Little by little I won't be as confused.

Hey Kitch!  My daughters got that house on Summit!  They're so excited!  They bid low hoping the guy would counter no higher than they could afford and he took their first offer!  Wouldn't have found it without you.  I'll have to take you to lunch or something.  Thanks!

Awesome OT!!!

they will love it.....the area is sweet!!!!! the park is active...and every year there is a big block party for all summit residents.... ";(

 

plus...near carrie....

esd is in the news threads...he's around....

I know how to dig him up!!! going to his bunker!!

Did you know that Kitch found it for me?  Isn't that a hoot?  I posted in here looking for some rentals someone might know of, and he knew about this place, so they were able to get it before it went on the market.  I'm so happy for them.  One of the daughters has a four year old son and didn't think she'd ever be able to afford a house.

Are you a neighbor too Kitch?  Or do you go to the party with your in-laws?  I know, it's nice to be near relatives.

Hey!  Did I just hear on the news that Kerry is going to be in SSP this week?  Where's he going.......the Cro??

Maybe I heard wrong.  Looked at kare11.com and it says that Elizabeth Edwards is going to be in the Twin Cities.  I could have sworn they said SSP though.

I am almost done with the web site it will have the cooler kid movie on one page and some of my Illustrations on another page. I might get it up and running tomorrow if all goes well. One of my teachers is trying to talk me into teaching at Brown College when I graduate, it would mean I would have to continue school to get my Bachelor's degree in graphic design but the school would pay for it.

ESD - That is awesome!  They know talent when they see it.  What a way to move along in your career!

OT - Congrats on the house find!  Sounds special.

 

Thanks Terry.  It's always fun to have a new house.  They're already looking at ads for furniture.

Good deal OT! Now ya know where X-mas will be each year.

And cooler news for U 2 ESD!  You frickin' brainyacks rock.  Good job!

Didn't hear about the SSP stop OT.  I'll be watchin tho

We're still around Me2. Baby Bella has definitely 'dropped'. We have an appt this morning at 9am with the baby doc so we will have more news after that. Meanwhile i've been trying to sleep... caught one hell of a cold / flu virus over the weekend that's turned into a sinus infection. UGH! Thank goodness for drugs... don't know what I would do without antibiotics, especially right now.

Thats great ESD! school is spendy so when someone else is willing to pay for it, it's always a good thing :) we find out this weekend if we are gonna move soon, gordy got a job offer for a new restaraunt out by cambridge, he wants gordy to design the kitchen and then run it once it's built :) we are ordering a roll off dumster today so I can get the house cleaned out to sell. anyone know someone cheaper than vasko?? it's gonna cost us about $300.00 for a 20'. we found a couple places out in Braham and oglvie that we are gonna go check out on saturday, places are much cheaper out there and you get acreage with it :)

here is one we are looking at :)

here is one we are looking at :)

Looks like a nice place for a party, to help break it in and all ...

LL---I grew up Grandy...so you are up in my old stomping grounds.....

If it was me...I'd would try to find a place on one of the lakes...I'm not sure of the price range is up there for that...but I don't think its high yet....

 

VOTE TODAY!!!

Thanks CM.  They've already suggested having Christmas there, but my sister's large family joins us for Christmas too and I don't think there'd be room.  And I don't want to have to tell them their on their own.  I'm kind of their mommy too as their mom died 20 years ago.  But there will be a party!

LL...what a great area to live!  Wide open spaces.  And won't it be fun doing a clean sweep of the old place?

 

What's going on here!  New houses, new cars, new jobs, new porches, new babies and a wedding!  We sure are blessed!  Maybe this is the year!

 

OT---I'm amazed that she was able to sneak in and get that house!! I know a lot of people looking for homes in that area and almost everyhouse on that block was sold by word of mouth. Heck the only reason I wanted to list my house on the open market was because I thought I could take advantage of it....hoping for a bidding war....

I was right and sold it in one day....

I heard that house had lot of people watching it and asking about it....The older couple to the South are two of the BEST neighbors you could ever have!!

(I don't live on summit anymore---I'm up on 17th)

The couple to the south live in MY HOUSE!  We looked at that house when we were expecting #7 and had outgrown our old house.  I loved the house, but it was selling for $24,000 and that was too expensive for us in those days.  lol  And they are the ones who bought MY HOUSE!!  :)

The seller did tell us that he'd had a lot of neighbors come through.  I'm still amazed he took the first offer.  They bid low hoping his counter offer would still be something they could afford.  He is putting in a new dishwasher and we told him that my son is a plumber and he could do that.  So last night when we went over with the offer everything was finished except for the dishwasher hook-up.  At that point I thought it looked good for the home team.  He didn't do it because he was going to sell it to the daughters! 

BTW, my deleted message was basically this message minus one sentence. 

Hey Kitch a little bird told me you are writing a hunt? When, when, when, when..... I need a hunt fix!

I'm about half done...and I'm got this damn cold that is not going away...until then...I won't touch it.

OT - congrats on your daughters new house! How exciting.

I have exciting news to share!! I"M IN LABOR!!! Since we got home from the doctors office just over an hour ago i've had 3 strong contractions, i'm dilated to 3-4 and 80% effaced. Wonder how long it will take for her to arrive?

BTW where's my seasonal cold? I know how the stuff works, and last time I didn't get a cold in the fall, I had one during the medallion hunt.

too late for me to make a prediction then? lol Good luck hope all goes well

That would work for me I'll just tace the rest of the week off and have finals next week;)

the last time i was 80% effaced, they threw me in jail.

Good luck dawg and ESD, you'll do great!!

Thanks Frosti.

oh I didnt see the 80% on the POOL Thread! whoa I was thinking about 6 tonight but with that far I will guess sooner! LIKE 3 PM! j/k ESD-I hope you make it in time!

Oh my gosh!  You're almost there!  Should be a really nice labor for you.  Good luck and don't forget to breath!

Treasure Chest.  I have seven children.  I thought you knew that.  :)

wow...did I miss some NEWS...good luck!!!!

 

I went to the doc's office --turns out I got an ear infection from this cold....figures....

 

Good luck you two!!  Way exciting!  I'm gonna go with 11am tomorrow. The first ones are tough. Really really tough.  Lotsa hurt.  Pain like you wouldn't believe.  I never heard screams like that before.

Oh who am I kidding, my wife and I were both hopped up on so many meds we didn't remember a thing anyway.  ;-)

Bring in a lap top with you, we want a play by play in real time.  Remember this isn't just about you. Don't forget about us and our feelings too.  :-)

Enjoy the life changing miracle of the next 24 hours you guys.

 

Oh and Ian - Thanks for the new tag line. LOL

I'd would try to find a place on one of the lakes...

I havn't found too many on lakes, but aren't the taxes higher if you get lake front property?

Oh who am I kidding, my wife and I were both hopped up on so many meds we didn't remember a thing anyway.  ;-)

hey! i didn't know they let you smoke pot in the maternity ward!

I had them give me an epidural.  :-)
