Two Thumbs Up



Thumbs Down (lol)









Awww Chill you’re the best!! I hope you computer gets well soon. Happy New Year’s Eve. We heading out to spend the night with our oldest son & his wife. Then we’ll all spend New Year’s Day eating (not too much) and watching football I expect.
Thank you Chill for doing this post. Weird when I go to the blog it doesn’t show comments or anything to leave them just the post. But the e-mail I got it shows the comments.
Yay, we have heat and hot water again!! 4 hours it took for the guy to replace the coil. I’m slowly peeling the layers off, LOL!!
Everyone have a safe and Happy New Year!!
JI
Happy New Year! Things are almost back to normal here…as far as visitors go anyway. House is pretty much in shambles. I gave no idea what we are doing tonight. I hope nothing. Will be back soon!
HAVE, NOT GAVE! DARN CELLPHONE KEYBOARD. LOL
Twitter has had the jitters today. We are going to see Sherlock Holmes at 4:40 and then have 8:pm reservations at some expensive new restuarant downtown. Hope we don’t get stuck in traffic going downtown to party and see the fireworks over the harbor. Ugh, I recall my parents eating pickled herring at midnight on New Years, while I went out on the porch and blew a horn and beat on a pot. Those were my shirley temple Drinking days. Not sure I’m in the mood to sit thru over 2 hrs of Sherlock followed by a 4 course meal. I swear I never get to pick the movie. Would rather see the Charlese T. one, or the Decendents, Mission Impossible or Dragon Tatoo.
Hope you all have a warm and cozy, fun night. Can’t believe it will be 2012! I think of the 1990′s as modern times. Y2K ya’ll!!
Rosie, Enjoy your night out, maybe the movie will turn out better than you think!!
We are going for an early dinner at a Longhorns not far from us. Kayla is off to a party at her friends apt who goes to Montcliar State, and Brodie is off to another bond fire party. Told him no replays of last year when the drunk guy fought with one of his friends and the two of them landed in the fire pit and him and his buddy jumped in the pit to pull them out.
Everyone how ever you bring in the New Year, hoping all have a healthy and happy new year!!
JI
I got the call! It’s ready! Gotta go!
Chill, Just saw you got the call, yay! Your back in action!!
Brodie called he said he is going to join us for dinner, thinks he should have a good meal before the nights festivities!
JI
So glad you computer is fixed now chill. I’m taking a pre New Year’s Eve nap, ha! Then we’re heading to our son’s house to spend the evening and NYD with them. It will be fun but I’m glad I don’t have to go to work until the 3rd. Have a good NYE everyone and drive safe.
Had to back door my way into the comments. Wonder why they aren’t showing up right?
Happy New Year everyone! Will be staying home except for a short drunk fest at 12:00 AM at the next door neighbor’s house. Then sleep it off and make breakfast for G and SIL tomorrow. Stay safe everyone!
PFS
Well, now that my computer’s back, let me go check out the reason you had to come in the back door.
It’s fixed! Woot!
When does the Twilight Zone marathon start?
We always watch that…..
It’s on now. G won’t stop watching it.
I’m going to marathon-watch episodes of Mad Men. And most likely, videos of Taylor and the band. LOL!! I am so happy not to be going anywhere. I hate NYE! Years and years of working them leave a bad taste in your mouth. ha!
Looks like one of her friends noticed her being talked about. People are so messed up. Really, what kind of a mind thinks like that?
And Hi, Nola!! Your house is in shambles! Well, get to cleaning, woman.
A psychotic mind. That’s what kind. What a dumb !@#$
Nice you don’t have to go anywhere. Taylor and Mad Men? Good combo. He’d make a fun guest star on that show, wouldn’t he?
Chill, thanks for fixing the comments, thought it was just me that couldn’t get in, but pfs had to go in the back door too.
Tommy & Kayla have been watching the Twilight Zone marathon, never get tired of seeing them year after year. In between the t zone he is also watching a Jack Benny marathon, alot of good laughs!!
We just got back from an early dinner, Brodie decided to go out with friends so it was just me & Tommy. It was very nice, food and company just right!!
JI
Taylor would be great in Mad Men. He can pull off that look, for sure!
So is everyone all settled in awaiting the dropping ball? Rosie?
Oh, never mind. Rosie’s going to a movie and dinner.
I’m happy my DS got called out to work. He has to work from 8 p.m. tonight until 11 a.m. tomorrow. One less worry.
Looks like the majority of us are home, mom.
Beer and then champs at 12:00
Just still not into this whole holiday this year, probably cause it was such a rough year with my ankles, will be very glad when that ball drops that for sure!!!
Lucky you Chill, your son has to work! Mine just told me hes going to a house party instead of the bond fire party, so I don’t have to worry too much about him falling into the fire pit again, LOL!!!
Not sure I’ll even make until 12:00, LOL Kayla said she was going to call us at 12:00 so we will see. Tommy’s already wrapped up in the blankets, he was up half the night with the furnace so hes really shot, said to wake him if he falls asleep, i said sure maybe we should set the alarm!!
JI
So happy that I can rest easy. Most of us are staying home. LOL! But now I’ll worry about Brodie and Kayla. Couldn’t you keep them home? Haha!
Chill, haha! not a chance they would stay home with Mom and Dad tonight!!
Brodie took his breathalizer that Kayla got him for xmas, so he thinks hes good!
JI
Happy New Year. Woo.
Henry? Why didn’t your greeting sound cheery?
I saw the clip of Tay on TMZ. Someone posted the link on Tay’s timeline.
Going on Jan. 1 here so a big HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all.
Happy New Year, Rosie!! Drive home safely!!
Sherlock has to be good. Robert Downey Jr. is in it.
Time to party.
Happy New Year everyone!!
Henry, Thanks for the vids!!
Rosie, Hope you had a good time last night!!
Haha, we both fell asleep, Kayla called a few minutes before 12 to wake us up and we put Dick Clark on and brought in the new year. My poor Tommy did something to his shoulder, he can’t move his arm, he was cleaning the water off the pool cover and did something, not a good way to start the new year, hes in a lot of discomfort. We’re gonna try some moist heat today and a cream the dr had given him when he did something to it awhile ago,hope he gets some relief.
JI
Chill be sure to check your messages on twitter. I need you to send me something.
My two are accounted for Kayla rolled in about noon, Brodie about an hour later. While we were talking he found a jello shot in his pocket, LOL!!
. Both said they had a good time at the parties they went to.
pfs guided me to the video of T at the airport, lord he looks good, and so does she!! Hoping they had a nice evening bringing in the new year together!!
JI
Henry, I’ll get right over there. I slept past noon today and I’m just now coming ’round.
Happy New Year, everyone!!
Loved the TMZ spot. Taylor is a quick thinker, I love that about him.
JI, Maverick Idol posted the link to the TMZ show, last night on Taylor’s timeline. Make sure to click on ALL each time you go to read the tweets to Taylor. That Top feature is just lunacy on twitters part. Glad your kids are home safe.
Sherlock Holmes was entertaining and Robert Downey and Jude Law were great. They both sported scruff and for the first time ever, my mind wondered to how would Taylor look on the big screen in a major role. That was because of Tay’s scruff and because both Jude Law and Downey are considered handsome actors. I decided Taylor would have looked way better but Downey has the acting chops. Also it was a comedic role with lots of funny facial expression and Downey had a mixed gray beard, so that too must have made me think of Taylor. Well, maybe someone will type cast Taylor in a small role in 2012.
Chill, how do you like your vacation so far? I’m hoping to get back to my normal routine in a few days, before the eating, drinking and visiting thing kills me. Oh, then there are the Jan. bills.
Rosie, So glad you had a good time last night. Picturing T on the big screen, gah my heart!!
I finally figured out you have to hit all tweets then you see all of them, LOL. I don’t go there often only when someone mentions something, so now I know
Yeah my two are crashing now, Kayla slept most of the afternoon, now is looking for dinner. Brodie is crashed out in the den, dead to the world!! He sent me a pic, says he doesn’t remember it being taken!!
http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo108/jerseyirish/brodienye.jpg
JI
I’m enjoying doing nothing. Anymore, I have to start my new year off zen. I’ve had too many crazy ones.
Chill, so glad you are relaxing and just doing what you want to do! Hope your whole vacy is like that!!
I see someone wasn’t too bright with their tweet, LOL!! know how to spell what you are talking about. checked the usual suspects didn’t see anything.
This has to be one of the quietest NYday that we’ve had! My two are in the den watching pay per view movies, Tommy’s nursing his shoulder, I’m the only one up and about!!
JI
It’s quiet everywhere. I just ran out to the grocery store, no one there. Great for me. I was in and out in record time. I needed my Coca-Cola.
Poor Tommy. Are you waiting on him properly? He could be faking, if you are.
Chill, do you drink real coke or diet coke? Nothing is better than real coke, but I rarely have one. I got a bottle of Pepsi Max that is pretty good. I think it has caffeine and that is probably why it is better than pepsi zero. Or is it Coke zero. I mostly drink filtered water or ice tea after my 2 cups of morning coffee.
I drink straight Coke. I love the stuff, ice cold. It’s my winter drink of choice, in addition to coffee, which I drink year-round. In the summertime, I don’t drink Coke, only sweet ice tea.
Chill, Not waiting on him too much, he has to go to work tomorrow hes afraid if he doesn’t won’t get paid for the holiday. The cream we put on seems to be easing it a little, so hopefully he’ll be ok.
Used to love coke, not a big soda drinker anymore. Love my hot tea in the winter well all year round and sweet tea in the summer, always have a jug brewing in the warm months.
JI
Coke is the most delicious substance. Trying to give it up, but it’s hard.
This story just makes me shake my head. Computers malfuction and all we can do is wander the halls like helpless idiots because they are in control. Sad.
http://overheadbin.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/01/01/9878326-chaos-as-guests-locked-out-of-rooms-at-denver-hotel
Wander the halls like helpless idiots . . . hahahaha!!!! January 2nd, the holiday season is officially over.
I added the Panic Stream link over to the right, under & other guilty pleasures. There is a ton of great music over there. I’m loading up my phone.
Hope everyone had a nice New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. Back to work tomorrow for me, but I’ll be putting up the 365 Days of Taylor Hicks calendar so my little office with no windows won’t be so dull.
Henry, That was so funny, those folks must have been a combination of pissed and bewildered, LOL!!
Thats a new one on me that the keys are computer controlled, only thought ones that were swipe card keys were that way.
Chill, Thanks for the Panic Stream link will take a look.
JI
Not positive JI but I think they refer to those cards as “keys” sometimes since they are used in the place of real keys.
Its ridiculous that there is no backup for so many things any more. All it takes is someone screwing up the computers to bring us to a halt.
Yea!! for panic stream. One of the best places around.
And banks and post offices and some others are still closed today so not totally over till tomorrow. Longest holiday season ever, it seems.
When I was at my sons on Thurs. he was on his blackberry half the time, because someone at the Federal Gov. agency where he works forgot to backup some vital and costly data. Then he and my SIL who works for the Army Core Of Engineering were relating some past horror stories of back up failures.
You have no idea how happy I am that the holidays are over and I can settle in for cold January and Febuary.
Looks like the moron is using a different approach on twitter.
And I can’t keep track of the days. I’m so confused. lol
And my computer geek finally returned my power cord to the Taylor shrine (external hard drive). He forgot to give it to me the last time he debugged my computer. I’m going to spend a little time organizing my MP3s into a neat little file. If I come across some good stuff, I’ll add it to the Box at the bottom of the blog. Wait, do you guys even want these MP3s?
Henry, thats what I thought, the one hotel we stay at uses them, but the other one we have stayed at uses regular keyes.
Rosie, You and me both, just couldn’t get into the holidays this year. We had the tree down on Friday, everything back in order before NYE!
Chill, some of these folks just don’t give up do they. You know we all love the music if you don’t mind putting them up we certainly will listen!
JI
Geez Chill I didn’t even realize there was a music player at the bottom of the blog, enjoying Rough Gods Go Riding right now.
LOL!! Tish!! I know you can make your own MP3s, but I think I started it back when because some didn’t know how to do it.
Yes I want the MP3s. Thanks!
And there ya go! I will be updating the box through the next week. I do have to get to the work computer sitting to my left at some point during the next week, but I’m putting it off for a while. It is glaring at me, but I’m ignoring it.
Chill, Oh no, no work your on vacy!!! I’m one of the ones that don’t know how to do the mp3′s so thank you!
JI
PFS, Jersey, if you have a request for the Box, let me know. Just tell me what it is you’re looking for. I have mega GBs of music.
Everyone have a great 2012!
Thanks, Nancy!! Happy 2012 to you too!!
Nancy, Thanks, and hope your 2012 is a great year also!!
Went for my checkup at the Cardiologist today all is good! He wants me to set up with Cardiovascular Dr to get my left leg finished, this way I’ll have good circulation in both legs. Not looking forward to that, have to lay completely still for 6 hours after the surgery, but guess its all worth it in the end.
JI
I’m sure you are not looking forward to that, JI. I assume they did the doppler thing on your good leg last year and want to prevent another non healing wound thing.
I bet Taylor was pissed to the max about the nasty Jen comments. He’s used to getting some nasty tweets and hearing nasty talk, but she wasn’t. And it was so unfair. He has been as quiet as a mouse.
Rosie, Yeah, the Dr said the left leg isn’t bad nothing like the right one, but feels I should have it done within the next couple of months.
Someone sent more nasty comments to Jenn? Haven’t looked in a couple of days. I bet he is pissed, where do these people get off trying to hurt her like that. She is his choice to be with these nasties need to get over themselves!
JI
They just posted grades for last semester Kayla made Dean’s List!! So proud of her!!
JI
That’s great, JI!
That’s super about Kayla! I hope your leg treatment goes real easy for you when you decided to get it done JI
I hope the nasty comments have stopped. That makes me sad.
No there are no new nasty comments. I meant he has been quiet since the last ones, except 4 his poptart tweet & Ore promo. I assume they are still on vacation.
Kayla’s a good girl!
Rosie, Oh good glad there are no new ones, the ones that were posted were bad enough. They just don’t need this nonsense going on while their relationship is delveloping. Last year at this time wasn’t he away sking for a couple of weeks? Hope they have a great time and just don’t pay any attention to the naysayers, I know its easier said than done, it bothers me can just imagine how it makes them feel.
Thanks everyone Kayla works hard at her school work and it pays off!
tishtx, thanks, Tommy and I talked tonight, I needed to know how much vacy he has left his vacy year runs April to April. He said he is good, so I’ll call the Dr tomorrow and see when they want to do it.
JI
The trolls have been busy making total asses of themselves. There really are some loony tunes out there.
rosie, ealier tweets sounded like they all planned to be back in Nashville by the 6th. From what tayla tweeted once, I think they went back to Malibu after a short skiing trip. Of course, I know nothing for sure.
Just hope they are having a good time. Work will start soon enough.
Taylor looked so damn good in that TMZ video. I liked several things about it.
Congrats to Kayla!!!!
Taylor looks larger and more imposing on TV than he does in person. I mean he is only 6 ft 1, which is tall but he looks bigger on the screen. I like the TMZ guys and gals. I watch the show often and they make fun of everyone. I’m sure Taylor enjoys them stopping him to ask their nonsense questions.
Second largest gossip conglomerate=outstanding publicity. Get into the public eye a bit, people remember you. And he looks amazing. Win.
You know, if the rags got a hold of the fact Taylor is dating John Wayne’s GD, it might make him the talk of the town, a little maybe … i’ll be honest here…. it might sound like that’s not a great idea, but if he wants to get his name out there and make people aware of him, it might make a little easier to sell his new CD (and get casting agents aware) …. it’s FREE publicity, and you know what they say about publicity… any is good. And he’s movie star good looking these days, so that can only help. It would help HER and her group as well.
On the other hand, perhaps that’s not the goal for Taylor, but I think otherwise, cuz he’s always happy when he sees his name in the paper – when he’s put in a good light – and selling lots of CD must interest him as well.
Kelly Clarkson had a spike in record sales recently.
ss, I had the same thought that him being with Jenn could help him get more exposure, and meet alot of different folks that could help him along. I don’t think that has anything do with him dating her, think he genuinley likes her, but being with her could have its perks.
Henry, Thanks! she got one B the rest A’s just missed the President’s list. She has a tough course load being a Chemistry major, its all greek to me, but she understands and loves her course of study!!
Chill, You loving just being home and hanging out and doing what and when you want to?
JI
Is Linda Bird or Lucy Bird still alive? He could date one of them. Oh wait George Hamilton did that. LOL! Yep Kelly likes Ron Paul and so do I but it wouldn’t motivate me to buy her CD. People are nuts. All those tweets from people saying they are no longer going to be a fan because they didn’t like Ron Paul.
This is the first time twitter’s been around for a national presidential election. Last night reading the tweets was like reading an AI board. I may have to stay away from twitter on the nights there are primary elections. I had just started following some new people and one guy retweeted every comment made about his favorite. I had to unfollow him.
I admire the fact that Taylor keeps his private life separate from his career. The last thing I would want to see is him following in John Mayer’s footsteps. That dude completely destroyed all his music creditability by constantly being in gossip mags with his latest celebrity girlfriend. I lost track of how many he dated over the years. I even heard some DJ’s joking one day about John Mayer, the guy who dates celebrities…..instead of John Mayer the talented guitarist.
tishtx, I totally agree, he has respect for the ladies in his life, by keeping his relationships quiet. I can’t stand John Mayer his antics turned me off to him and his music, funny you don’t hear much about him lately.
Rosie, i never even thought about the election and twitter, it will probably be intense, I’ll keep my nose out of that whole mess!!
JI
Jersey, I’m loving having the time off and lounging around in the pajamas, but twitter has not been fun the last couple of days. Someone needs to step away from the computer. Unreal.
What I don’t understand was when that gal was blocked before, her so called friends all agreed with her and theorized that it had to be a mistake on T.’s part twice or that someone hacked her account twice. A real friend would have suggested that perhaps revealing Keb Mo and the tweets in bad taste were not a good idea. Now she has half the Wayne family following her and they are subjected to her nonsense.
Rosie, She knows why she was blocked. Trust me.
i am glad to hear that flowerstone. I figured she did. But I think she wants others not to think so.
When she first got blocked, I had no idea what or who and I said something about how she could get back. Wished I had kept my mouth shut although I’m sure she would have figured it out.
I can not believe she repeated something she overheard that Taylor did not want out. Think she makes a point of “overhearing” things. Ridiculous.
I wonder if T knows who she is now? Probably not or he would block her again.
And about the “Freaktoids” and some of the other snark that I have read. It seems they have convinced themselves that they are messing with dumb blondes and dumb hillbillies.
I think they are as wrong as it gets. These are very smart and savvy ladies in my opinion. In life and in business. With many, many friends. The loons would be wise to slink back under the rocks that they drug their asses out from under.
JI Just the thought of being a chemistry major is giving me a headache. But good for her!
Those girls are far from dumb.
It will be interesting how T’s twitter presence develops this year. Seems like he’s backing off a lot. But once the CD comes out, I’m sure he’ll be tweeting more. Maybe he’s taking a break before the big album push.
Seriously after I read all of those snark comments implying a dumb blonde and knocking her fashions and tweets, I went and read her timeline and looked at the photos. She dresses super and is stunning and there was not one damn thing wrong with her tweets. Those average looking gals were just seething with jealousy. Little spunky Tayla read around and put them on notice and did it in a delightful manner.
Why am I still up? LOL!
Henry, LOL I know i barley passed General Science & Biology she can recite that periodic chart like its the ABC’s !
I think Taylor is having a good time on his vacy and not worrying whats on his timeline. I’m sure when he takes a minute to look some will be blocked thats for sure.
I went and read Jenn’s timeline also, I find her to be very sweet and endearing that she embraces all that follow her. I was impressed to see that she took the time to tweet all of you that tweeted her a happy new year back indiviually, to me that says alot about her. I think she dresses just like any other 26yr old single lady nothing trashy about her at all, her style says relaxed and comfy to me.
JI
Hope you all got to see Taylor’s new Riding Shotgun, its really a nice tribute to the fans that take video during the shows:
JI
Oh my goodness, can’t believe I forgot to mention Taylor’s tribute to Carson at the end of the video, what a caring guy he is.
JI
Really good video. I missed the tribute to Carson the first time I watched it. It’s hard to believe that young man is no longer here.
I think I sent him a video when he asked for them. I can’t remember. In any case, he didn’t use it if I did. LOL I’ve only taken a few. I can’t stand holding the camera when he’s on that stage. But congrats to all whose videos he used, it’s a great riding shotgun! Yes, and it’s nice that he dedicated it to Carson. So sad. I love the video from that night they were on stage together, that young man was happy!!
Chill I think it said below the video for fans to keep sending videos so I bet they are going to make some more. Maybe yours will get used next time. I’m like you, I can’t stand to video at the concert. I only did it once.
tishtx, I saw that he wants the vids to keep coming, so i think your right he plans to do more fan video shotguns.
Chill, Yes you could see how happy and content Carson was the night he performed with Taylor. You could also see the compasion in Taylor’s face that he was there with him. Not many would have gone to the lengths Taylor did to make that youngman feel a part of their show the way he did.
Not complaining but this weather here is crazy. Wed we were 11 degrees with a wind chill well below zero, started to warm up Thurs, today it feels like its in the 60′s. Its been going like this since Nov we drop then the temps go up. Haven’t had any snow since the one in Oct that knocked power out for us for almost 4 days.
JI
I’ve put a few more MP3s in the box, PFS. Slowly but surely.
Was so happy to read that little Taylor Love is in remission. I’ve been following her progress on the Care pages. The family must be overjoyed that she has been given this second chance to live a normal life. I can’t even imagine what they went through having a child so sick, your world comes to a complete stop, nothing esle must matter just getting your child well.
JI
That little girl is so adorable, and I’m happy that she’s doing well!! It seemed touch and go not that long ago. Scary. I can’t even imagine what it’s like for the family. And what a brave girl she is! Great, great news!
I really hope that bone marrow transplant has put her into indefinite remission. We have a family friend who had bone cancer as a little girl. She was cured and is healthy to this day. It can happen!
That’s really good to hear PFS! My BFF gave bone marrow to her brother about a year ago but he died a few months ago. I don’t think it was the same kind of cancer though.
I hope this is the cure for her too. A childhood friend’s daughter had cancer at 3 and they did bone marrow on her, she is all grown now and a Mom herself. Guess it depends on the type of cancer it is and how agressive it is, the success rate they have.
JI
The news that Taylor Love is in remission is wonderful. I too have been following her on the family’s Care Page. The whole Love family have been very brave through the whole order. I’m praying that God has wonderful plans for this little girl and that she lives a long and happy life.
Pic of Taylor just posted on twitter, looks like he shaved the beard but has a little scruff now:
HI
Lots of Taylor sightings in NOLA.
Um, what’s with the bangs?
Oh, maybe your picture explains the bangs, Jersey! LOL! No hat on in the other picture I saw.
Looks like he’s having a blast
Chill, Saw the pic with the bangs, think it was “cap” hair he must have taken the cap off for the pic, LOL!!!:)
I saw there were lots of T sightings in NOLA today, he seemed to be out in the open, not trying to hide himself.
JI
I want to be partying in New Orleans, damn it.
my son & dil got married in May with the hippie wedding are on the jam cruise tonite…Fort Lauderdale to Haiti & Jamaica…1 year to late to see Taylor…darn….anyway I get to watch the kids…3 yr old girl and 13 mos old boy…And wouldn’t you know it the baby started with a high fever yesterday of 102.9…took him to the dr today..it was 104….turns out it is bil ear infections…wasn’t even pulling at his ears…he is pathetic looking little boy just wanting to be held…normally he is a terror, climbing and in to everything…especially my laptop… loves to pound on the keys…and turn my intenet button off…
Aw cochem, that’s so painful.
I hope he gets better soon.
Aw, cochem!! I hate when the kids are sick. Well, enjoy the time he’s letting you cuddle him. Hope it passes quickly. Poor thing.
On a side note, I watched the game tonight. Happy for Taylor and Alabama! But really ashamed of the human race, reading Jordan Jefferson’s timeline. Sad.
cochem, hope your grandbaby is feeling better today. My daughter got a few ear infections and showed no signs except the fever and being clingy.
Didn’t get to see the whole game, fell asleep, bad me. I saw some of what was being said about Jordan Jefferson, such a shame its a game, just a game, to hold him that responsible is just plain wrong, there are far more concerning things going on then that, shaking head………..
JI
Hope your grandson is feeling better cochem. I could handle that with my own kids but I get scared with it’s the grandkids that are sick.
I fell asleep before the ending of the game. I’m glad for Taylor that Alabama won, but I wouldn’t even have been watching if it weren’t for the fact that DH wanted to watch the game. Football’s just not my thing.
thanks everyone…he is MUCH better today…almost back to his old self….noticed one of the artists on the jam cruise is Bruce Hornsby…cool…
tishtx, me too, dh wanted to watch the game, football just doesn’t excite me. I’ll watch if he has it on. What I did see Alabama ruled the playing field, when i fell asleep it was half-time 9-0.
cochem, so glad to hear your little guy is feeling better, much put you at ease too! I had read that Bruce Hornsby was going to be on Jam Cruise, too bad Taylor wasn’t on this year.
JI
Sorry, Ive been missing in action. I have been so damn busy, I look at a couple things , get on twitter for a few and next thing I know I’m falling asleep.
It was a great game, I had a notion it might turn out like that. I didn’t see Jeffersons time line but it is to be expected. What with the wonderful internet and wonderful twitter everyone feels like they can say just about anything. I have to admit that jefferson didn’t seem too used to things not going his way. But these guys are pretty used to that kind of stuff, it seems its part of the price you pay nowadays for perhaps eventually getting a contract in the millions of dollars. And he will get one.
I miss the Jam Cruise, but I imagine bigger things are going on right now.
Henry, I hear you!! Lots going on here too, Getting Kayla ready to leave to go back to school on Friday. It went so fast can’t believe its time for her to go back, snff, sniff. Then next weekend Lily turns 1 on the 22nd, shes just about walking on her own takes a three steps starts giggling and falls, but she seems to getting the hang of it!!
I am sure he takes it with a grain of salt, but people can be so hurtful with their comments. Guess it won’t matter when he does get one of those big contracts, which he most likely will.

I was just thinking about the fact that all 3 of my children were out of the house and completely on their own by the time I was 46. I did not realize at the time that 46 is still rather young.
I have fighting an off and on again cold for 2 weeks and haven’t been here much to post. But I got caught up with reading.
I wish I had a vacation planned for Feb. or March to a warm sunny place. I had no problem getting off the low dose antidepressant last August, but now I’m feeling achy and moody . I’m sure I have Seasonal Affective Disorder. It’s going to be a long time until April and seeing the first buds on the trees. And it is too damn dark and dreary. Ok, I’m done bitchin for now.
rose, you need to move south
Rosie, You were young when yours moved out on their own! Brodie has been talking about going out on his own also. He wanted to buy a house but is now thinking maybe renting one with a friend for awhile might work for him. Then we will really be empty nesters, LOL!!:)
Kayla had a cold hang on from before Thanksgiving, when she was home at TG we had her go to the Dr’s they gave her meds but it never really went completely away. So she went again the day after Christmas they put her on another med and she seems finally dried out now.
My MIL used to get like that come Jan, she really got depressed about the days being short and being stuck in during the winter months, but we just used to keep talking to her and get her through.

Rosie, are you saying that you have regrets?
If you knew then what you know now, would you have done it differently?
Oh, and I get the seasonal thing too. I hate, hate, hate winter, everything about it; the cold, the slush, the snow, the itchy skin, the darkness. I’m not made for it. I think the last time I liked winter, I was maybe 9.
Let’s make a pact to help each other get through it.
I get the seasonal thing too. February is my bad month. Winter sux.
Hey, check out this video, Tay and someone else show up at around the 2:29 mark. Got it off sweetsmokes board. Luvtaylorhicks found it.
Should get some jealous wierdos panties in a wad.
haha Chill, I tell you some of these people just crack me up. I laughed out loud at one tweet today.
I bet Taylor just lays awake at night thinking up ways to “fool us” cause really he has nothing else of importance to do.
Does it ever stop???? Got thinking about his tweet last night, about waiting and things happen, wondering if hes talking about Jenn coming into his life that he has finally found love, wouldn’t that be wonderful.
Henry, loved the video, him and Jenn getting their pic taken together, both looked so happy!!
JI
That would be wonderful, Jersey, but guys don’t usually think that way. He might have gotten Super Bowl tickets.
chill, hahaha!! your probably right, just being a romantic!!
I see Kelly Clarkson is singing the NA at the superbowl, never cared for the way she performs it. Oh well maybe someday T will get his chance, he would blow them all away!!
JI
LOL!! That’s us, romantic.
Rob may have just meant he and Taylor were going to meet up for drinks. Tay’s hide and seek reply made me think that was the case.
I still feel lousy with a sore throat and muscle aches, but so far have not had more than just an occasional dry cough and sniffles. I’ve been taking vit c and sucking on zinc, and using a teaspoon of black elderberry flower about 4 times a day. Dr. Oz says skip the soar throat meds and just take advil for sore throat and aches and pains, so I have. Tonight I might say the hell with it and have a few highballs.
Rosie, I just took the tweet that they keep missing each other.
These colds are so nasty. Kayla just got over one that lingered from Thanksgiving went to the Dr’s day after TG, and again the day after Christmas.. She started with a sore throat yesterday and is congested today. Her boyfriend has a cold, so guess he shared it with her!
She just left to go back to school. Little worried the winds are wicked here and snowing on and off. Will be a wreak until I hear from her that she got back safe.
JI
Rosie, hot tea with lemon & honey and put whatever booze you want in it. It works.
Love, Dr. Chill.
Oh, and be careful when you get to twitter, it’s wild over there tonight.
Chill, I see twitter is wild tonight. Took me a few minutes to figure out who was who and what was going on, boy do some people have jealousy issues, attack, attack, attack. Why can’t people just leave T and those close to him alone, and stop bothering Jenn’s friends, seriously folks need to get a life.
Kayla just called, she made it back just hit alot of traffic. Now I can rest easy knowing shes not on the roads anymore.
JI
Glad she’s home safe! I can’t wait for winter to be over.
