I was excited for her to go to Michigan(MI)...I am going in a few weeks to visit my sister!...and then I realized she meant Missouri(MO)...oh well...both places are fantastic!

[GrammaBabs]

Ya' know,,, a girl with a bad hip, should be "resting",,, but NO........... I have to type out all my thoughts,,, and i DID, say to my self,,,,, hummmmmmmmm is Missouri,,, MI or MO... but hecks bells,,, they are used to me by now,,, (i think)...a bit of a dip, and by now they know that "spelling, punctuation and abbreviations... are no biggie for me... honestly,,, my dear friends have me figured out by now... LOL..so ya' gotta know this....

Can't find words a lot,,, i have to sit a minute and grunt,,, thinking... then give up in frustration for a word like "dog".... duh,,, but can remember where i've seen some pattern, or other stupid thing... !!!!
I babbel and am a silly goof,,, but i knit, crochet and swim up a storm,,, and in the cold... cook a lot... LOL

All that being said... this does seem like a goal for me... i gotta find a road trip buddy though,, would never do this alone... don't want DH along,,, he cramps my "stupid"... always have to be on good behavior... and i DON"T do women's groups a lot,,, but THIS one just "calls to me".... so good luck to you all if i really make it... heheheheheh..

Oh,,, and whever the best hotel is,,, for all, i'm there..... I don't do camping, or sleepovers...
My idea of ruffing it; is when roomservice takes more than 5 minutes................

Dear dear Sandy-there is something seriously wrong with you
PS-RV place???

[Sandy Navas]

Dear dear Sandy-there is something seriously wrong with you
PS-RV place???

Bobbi, I thought you already knew that because I try every day to share all my serious overload of faults with my on-line friends. One of which is being forgetful. I was out this morning and drove right by before I remembered to try to get the name. However I was rushing home to get lunch for my bro and sis. Unless you are driving down next week, we do have about a year to plan the M*QC Forum Follies . . .

I won't forget now - made myself a BIG note.

Hugs.
