You mean Bengals...

[stretchpants]

Was I in it??

Good Morning Posse!

punkin, pass the coffee please. I stayed up too late watching a movie.

 

[stretchpants]

WOW! That one's a doozy. I'll bet that hurt...

I have to share this. The front two eggs are from this morning.

 

[Hillbillie]

Mornin' all! Sorry It appeared I left so abruptly last night...was doin' some baby wranglin' in the midst of my intro.

I must say, you all are some chattinest folks! Love it!! Looks like I'm going to get a work out keepin' up...but it never hurts to burn a few extra calories here n' there.

 

[stretchpants]

OMG I would have called the marines..

Ungh. I feel your pain. When it rains real good down here, I can easily fill/refill the wet vac several times. The worst amount we ever had in the water from rain "seepage" was about 200 gallons. The worst we ever had.... well... Lets just say I opened the back door to let the water FLOW through the door before I could start using the wet vac. That particular morning, I woke up and started my morning routine and realized there was no water pressure. Before I even got to the door to the basement I could hear the water flowing. The filter on the line that feeds from the well broke and the well pump was just goin' to town and filled up the whole basement, every room, with about 3 inches of water.

 

[stretchpants]

That's awful. I hope the insurance agency does it's job..

My house did ok. We have most of the debris picked up. It took a crane and a bucket truck to cut the tree off the neighbors home. They wouldn't turn her power back on with the damage. They are estimating 4 months til her house will be done. The insurance company is bringing a travel trailer for her to stay in. its a mess. I'll feel the financial loss later but things are starting to get back to normal. I spent most of yesterday laying under the ceiling fan with the ac blasting and watching TV!

G'Mornin' (nearly afternoon here) ma'am.

Im so glad my baby wranglin' days are done with. It was awesome when they were all that small, but I dont think I liked it enough for another one.

 

[stretchpants]

You don't know what you got until it's gone...

It is and I did. Amazing how much joy you can get from something as simple as flipping a light switch and the light actually comes on.

 

[efirdj]

OMG I would have called the marines..

Nah. I was in the Navy, remember? Im not scared of a little water. I hate that it ruined so much stuff, but it wasnt anything that couldnt be replaced. All the important stuff was in tupperware bins.

Besides. It gave me a reason to throw away a large chunk of Mrs E's crap. Even though she claims to not be a horder...

 

[stretchpants]

Good Morning...Here's a cup of coffee. I know it's a little late in the morning but I'm a night owl. It's my 6 A.M.

Hi James! I completely understand your lack of desire to return to such days. They're fun...but SO much work! In a way, though, I'm kinda glad this didn't occur in my younger days as I don't think my patience was quite was it is today...and that's a big player now-a-days.

 

[stretchpants]

We're all horders.Right now I'm a juice and carto horder.I used to be a shoe horder...Anyone with a collection of anything is a horder..

Good morning to the verified prettiest member of ECF!

My oldest was born when I was 22, a few months shy of 23. My youngest was born when I was 28. They wear me out now, Id hate to see what would happen if another one appeared. Id never be able to wake up.

Little babies are so sweet but I really didn't like my kids until they were teenangsters...

She calls them "nicknacks" or memories... I call it garbage.

 

[MustangSallie]

She lives in a gated community.They won't let a bunch of women wearing multicolor burqa's with Sasquatch at the wheel through the gate. Hell we won't make it out of Arkansas dressed like that..

Did she just call me a Sasquatch?

 

[stretchpants]

They say if you haven't seen it in a year you don't need it....I forget what all is in our basement. I'm sure it's all stuff we don't need...

 

[FlyingV]

I believe that she did.

Did she just call me a Sasquatch?

 

[FlyingV]

Morning Sallie, Stretchy, Billie!

May I call you billie? It's easier to type....
