    Hopefully, but around here we have to worry about, Cottonmouths, and Copperheads, and Rattle Snakes... oh my! :eek: I never had much of a problem with snakes until I moved here. :( But now they really give me the heebie-jeebies!

    Gobby, it must have been something in the air this past week. I too awoke to a partially flooded basement. Unfortunately it was the water heater. When I went downstairs it was spewing water by the gallons out of the top. It looked like a water volcano. To top things off the day before that our brakes went out on one of our cars. The lower level air conditioning unit croaked and a huge dark snake has crawled into the garage... and I don't know where it is!!! We had the plummer out yesterday and...

    Well it sounds like you have certainly been having fun! lol. I had a really crappy time of it yesterday as well as the day before. It's kind of a long story but if interested you can read about it on Bethie's page. Hey, whats going on with your car?

    Thanks sooo much!!!! I knew that you would understand. I really just needed the chance to vent a little. As the evening went on I got a little teary and went to bed early. I felt a lot better this morning. As my mother always said: " The bridge between hope and despair is a good night sleep." Today all was good until I got the cost to replace the water heater and repair damage. $8,000.00!!!!!!!!!! :eek: Plus I still have no clue where the heck the snake is! Ugh. :( Oh well.... life...

    I am having a major pity party right now. I realize that in the wake of what happened to so many In Oklahoma yesterday I have little to complain about. Never the less, it has been a rough 24 hours. Last night the brakes went out on our old suburban. It's,a,really,old car but we need it. Then one of our air conditioning units went out. Later in evening a huge snake crawled,into the garage. As far as I know it's still in there. Hopefullly it's not a poisionios one. Then this morning our water...

    Way to go on the two pounds!!!! Congrats. This week I held at the same, but the week before I lost two pounds. So thats about 22/23 pounds for me. I know I am at least going down 10 more. But not really sure if I will go down past that. I am not sure that I could realistically maintain it. We'll see. I really hope your feeling better. Since you had a fever, it sounds like you might have had the flu or bronchitis. I am really sorry you missed the contest deadline. I know you wanted to enter....

    OMG am I sore! The day before yesterday I cleaned and re-stained our fountain and started cleaning our Koi pond. Then yesterday I planted annuals in one of my beds and got a couple window boxes and a few pots planted. (But I still have a butt load more to do.) Then I pulled dandelions. I swear to god (No exaggeration) I must have pulled a hundred. I filled a whole bag full of the little suckers. It felt good to get a lot of that stuff done but boy am I paying for it today!!!! WOW am I out of...

    *sorry if this is in the wrong place, I just thought it would be pretty helpful.* Lowes has 18gallon totes for only $2.49 each. Not sure if it's all Lowes stores but for your halloween storage needs it would be worth it to check it out.

    Yes I am somewhat familiar with Hermitage, mostly the commercial areas, not so much the suburb areas. It is right next to Mt. Juliet which has quite a bit of rural area as well and is really pretty. One of the good things about TN is that our state is pretty thin so it doesn't take long to get anywhere. You can leave in the morning spend the day in Atlanta and be back home at night. I can't really give you any info on the country music scene cause I'm not into that but we are getting a new...

    Happy Mother's Day to you too! I Know that you worked so I'm sure you must have been beat, but even so i'll bet your kiddo made sure to let you know how much you're loved. We didn't do anything special around here but the kids got me a card and a little gift, so that was real nice. As you can imagine my hubby is a bit preoccupied right now. His staff got together and had a very tear filled meeting. They gave him very heartfelt cards, had his favorite cake and gave him several nice bottles of...

    There is no problem with haunts. They are plentiful. I live about 50 miles from Nashville and there is no place I'd rather live than TN. Our autumns are beautiful and colorful and are still pretty warm.

    I was in Florida the other day on vacation and heard this on the news. My husband looked at me weird because I always joke when we go into old cemeteries that I should come back with the truck and load up on tombstones and statues to decorate the yard (not tacky stuff). Of course I would never actually do that.

    Thanks Decorinator nice name by the way! About my MIL, it actually hasn't came up again, but I've only seen her once though. I think there is a chance that another family member on the other side is going to throw him a party. At least I hope so. But either way it's a no go at mine. Thanks for asking about it. I hope I didn't come across TOO heartless in that post
  6. always good to have a fellow Southerner as a friend!!
  7. LOVE the pic of you and your father-in-law waiting on ToTers!!
  8. The only pics I have from my 2009 haunt is a youtube video, which I've posted on two threads, the "ideas for 2010" under general halloween and the "totguard" thread under props. We were so rushed last Halloween due to weather/time constraints, and simultaneous VIP houseguests (first ever visit from in-laws!) that I never took any photos. I only remembered to pull out the video camera at the last minute!

    I do enjoy watching it though, and already making new plans and purchases for next year! Thanks for asking, Ill watch for you on the boards!
