    What do you think of Indian music right afte Mary Leiter? Between ML and Consuleo 2? Or ought we to stick with plain?
      • S.f. Vollenweider How is it going? I just got home from Luke's ballgame. Yes, just. They won and he pitched a no hitter--but my bleacher butt is numb.

        This extraordinary contraption, a testament to playboy Prince Bertie's insatiable lust, was made to take his weight during lovemaking in a Parisian brothel.

            how about jennie Chamberlayne? ALthough I still can't find a pic of her, I can see a coupel NYTimes archived articles about her. Seems she is mucking iwth her spelling, daddy spelled it Chamberlain.

            Yes, let's try it! I've been saying you sh...ould grab that money to pay off your initial investment, well, start to anyway. Just keep a record of what it went to pay. I'm old school when it comes to bills so you tell me what you think is the best way to handle that. I think transfering the paypal to a checking acct in the company name ( provided you get a tax id number) is the best way to go, then just submit an invoice and pay yourself.

            I do think an end of season wrap up is in order. I was also wondering if it would be cute to see if we can skype Ivy and ask her why she wanted to talk about Clara barton...or have her do the 30 second summary? I mean, if her mom agrees. Is that stupid?

            I think you may hurt your brain trying to figure that out.

            Tina (mil) has asked us to delay until second week of July, our regular visit. Gpa is home, though they are o...utfitting a downstairs room with a hospital type bed and getting 24 hr nursing.
            If there is a sudden change for the worse, I bet Chris will just fly over. Jett and I are going to hope for the best and wait for July.

        ok.... Chris' granpa not in good shape. I do believe we are all going away all next week to see him before it is too late. . so minicast must either be Skyped... Or Saturday or Sunday...
          • Beckett Graham I'm kind of wondering if maybe she should go back in. My C-section was an emergency and I was fine nearly immediately. Beter safe than sorry, i mean if you think she's levelheaded normally.

          • S.f. Vollenweider She has an appt next week. She doesn't have a fever, her color is perfect, her incisions almost are hard to see they are healed so nicely. No swelling, or redness. I was wondering too, but she said next week will be fine. Whatever that means. Bex is staying with her most of the day, calls herself a Granny Nanny.

I'm totally going to use it. first crime: Brian's method of weeding/trimming-- a giganto, landscaper size pump of roundup. *le sigh* I am following it for two reasons--one, Ithink it's entertaining and 2- he ( as well as another guy I friended) are garden writers. Never know...ya know?

          So what are you thinking now--- minicast on Jennie, then one more full epi on....? And then a season ending round up? Answer the historian question, and the ones where they ask us to talk about people still alive, bloopers?, what we have learned or something? Teasers for next season, etc?
            • Beckett Graham And what "historians" do you mean? I thought it was a comedy question.
              Tuesday at 4:55pm ·
            • S.f. Vollenweider I thought she meant it for real, like scholarly, degreed and schooled historians. How did you read it? ha! The only history major I would trust in on our convos is Skye and she would probably want to do nothing but feed us info.

              So when are you free to record it?

          Tow Questions:1) Do you want to drop them into history? I'm inclined to say no since this is part of a series, so maybe just a really fast recap. 2) What time?
            • S.f. Vollenweider I really have nothing on Emerald Cunard..and my time before tomorrow is freaky limited. Just being honest-- my family and HC are often at great odds for my attention and you know what wins out everytime. *heavy sigh*

            Super long SF posted, lol. But only on FB. And I need to go back in and add some captions. I just figured we needed the pop on FB... I'll calmly add to site later. :) Let me know what you think - (I'l probably be adding captions as you read.)
              • Beckett Graham That sounded like a good response. I'd go ahead and post it.

              • Beckett Graham we may not go because of rain. Hey. The escape from Manic Mommies is in New Orleans this year. They just announced. November (which stinks, but I think we could write for a week in October secretly in order to take the time off.)

                Yeah, not the sunniest of weekends. I would hate to be camping at the lake when a storm like today ran through. Although I would give you all shelter. :) And maybe a beverage if you ask nicely. I would like to escape from manic mommies ( th...ey are starting to annoy..isn't that terrible? I should be so much more supportive...maybe it's my mood) anyway--- lol...so I have a hard time scheduling going to your house, but you think I could go to NO ? Trust me, I've been trying to get there for years-- the only time I have managed was when there was a lutheran youth conference there.See More

                Spread the love, there Beckett! Ha! I have to go run errands, I'll be back this afternoon. I probably should get those other 2 sf ready so we can just roll them out. I asked the twitterers how they wanted to celebrate 100 followers, and one... guy said a show about Christine Jorgensen. I put her on the list, and I guess her story is very interesting and def trailblazing-- but maybe some day we can do a series called " bound to offend someone'.See More
