Good morning Lounge

[MissHoneychurch]

How are you today?

Yesterday evening I unpacked some more boxes and cleaned up my apartment. I even washed my window front in the living room in the dark :eyes: All because my mom and her bf are coming today :rofl: I want her to see that I did stuff the last two weeks .... the good daughter I am.

My moving guy called again last night, we will meet for a date somewhen next week :D

1. It is not morning yet!

I haven't gone to bed and the sun won't be up for hours.

[MissHoneychurch]

2. Well, the sun won't show here neither

it is raining like crazy. Still, good morning :D

[Guava Jelly]

3. Good morning MissH

And yay on your date!
The guy has awesome taste!
:) :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

7. Good morning Guava

:hi:

I prefer not to call you "Jelly" :rofl:

I am excited about that date too. I mean the guy met me when I was in my worst outfit, no make-up, no hair-do .... and he STILL showed interest .... and he told me I am his type in one of our phone conversations. I hope he still thinks it when he sees me again.

[Guava Jelly]

13. You clean up really nice MissH

I am sure that you are going to knock him off of his feet.
Go with confidence.I'm excited for you.:woohoo:
About the name thing.The only reason I didn't pick "Do Be Do Be DU" is because I didn't want to be called Doobie (after a Joint):silly:
If I could re-change it I'd pick Sky Masterson probably.
If you want you can just call me James(I'll always call you MissH).:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

14. Thanks James

:hug:

The phone conversations go well so far, I will see how it goes when we meet and talk face to face. I hope I don't fall all over him to try to kiss him :rofl:

[malta blue]

5. Good morning MissH!

:hi::loveya:

Good for you! This weekend will be spent gathering papers, etc because I am going to the divorce lawyer on Monday :bounce:

The STBE wants to take Little MB out to dinner on Sunday :shrug: and she wants to go.

Very exciting about your mover man!!!! My gentleman friend called last night too :D

[MissHoneychurch]

9. Good morning malta

If your daughter wants to meet him, then I don't see any harm.

I wish you a wonderful weekend nevertheless.

YAY for your gentleman friend!! I will keep the Lounge up to date about my mover man :D

[Road Scholar]

6. Good morning.

[MissHoneychurch]

10. Good morning

yes, my condo is more and more a place to live. I like it a lot :D

Have a great weekend!!!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[Callalily]

11. Good Morning MissH!

Great news about your mover guy. Yes, you must definitely share the details of your date with us. ;)

I for one am glad it's Friday,although it's going to be hectic at work again today. But the weekend fast approaches.

:hug: :hi: :loveya:


p.s. cool pic!

[MissHoneychurch]

12. Good morning Simply

:hi:

I am glad it is Friday too. Even though it won't be a quiet weekend. Oh, btw, I am off Monday, so there will be no Good morning thread.

It feels good to have a date again. Been a while and been a while since I fell in love.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[Callalily]

15. I'm confident that you'll have

a good time on your date. Anything planned yet?

Off on Monday? Sheesh . . . you sure take a lot of time off. ;)

I'm trying to plan a sick day, but am just too busy. I'm hoping if I get some urgent stuff done at work today, that maybe I can call in sick on Monday.

But if I can't, I'll certainly miss your good morning thread.

[MissHoneychurch]

16. Remember

I have 29 days vacation each year :D

I think we will go in a café, drink something and talk.

[Callalily]

17. 29 days is good. Counting

weekends I've got 21. Right now I've got 32 days built up (not including weekends), and it's very difficult to take time off.

A café date is a good first date, although it sounds like the two of you have been doing plenty of talking already. :)

Gotta get ready for work, so I'm wishing you a nice weekend, and enjoy your Monday off.

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

18. The vacation days

don't include weekends :)

I enjoy talking to him. And it isn't like I do all the talking and he is quiet. NO!! He talks too :D

Have a great day and a relaxing weekend. See ya Tuesday

:loveya: :hug:

[blueraven95]

19. Good Afternoon, MissH!

I'm finally around again!!! :hug:

Good luck on the date, it sounds like so much fun.

I'm so glad it's Friday. Even with the first part of the week off, I still need a break.

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

20. Good morning blueraven

:hi:

Good to see you again. But don't worry about the last couple of days. I was partly so busy that I couldn't keep up with my thread. I won't be around Monday either. My mom and her bf stay till Monday, so I take that day off as well.

I'm looking forward to see my mover man again :D

You still have to tell me about your experience in DC.


:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[blueraven95]

It was crazy

The crowds were huge, and we kept getting directed in the wrong direction. At one point we got stuck on one block that was so crowded it took us an hour to get from one end to the other. After we got out of that, we got sent down a tunnel that we thought only went a block or two and would take us to the part of the mall we were supposed to be on, but it actually went out on the freeway, and we had to walk back. But we were on the mall (stuck between two rows of port-a-pottys, so we couldn't see anything, but we could hear) before Biden's swearing in. When Obama was finally sworn in, it was amazing - I've never seen so many strangers hugging each other.


There's a lot more, but I don't have time to write it up right now. :D

[MissHoneychurch]

24. WOW, that sounds crazy

but also amazing. I bet you will remember that day a long time.

As I already told you, when I saw the crowds on TV I said to AirmensMom "blueraven is there somewhere".

Did you take pics?

[blueraven95]

27. I took some, but intheflow took more

I didn't want to take any expensive camera into that crush, she was more adventurous about it.

I hope she will post them soon.

[MissHoneychurch]

29. You were there with itf?????

I wish I could have joined you. I bet you had a blast.

[blueraven95]

32. yeah,

we had a good time.


I think my favorite part (although not at all historically significant) was when we went into the Air and Space museum to warm up. Teenagers had taken up every bit of wall, seating, and floor space to sleep - and itf was taking pictures (with flash!) and no one moved. It looked like something out of a disaster film - with "dead" bodies everywhere.

We were making jokes that it looked like we were refugees.

[MissHoneychurch]

33. Well

till noon on tuesday you were refugees ... at least in mind ...

Please send me a link if she posts the pics while I am not here.

[blueraven95]

34. I absolutely will

I haven't even had the time to download my pics off my little point and shoot yet. I doubt they will be any good, but you never know.

[MissHoneychurch]

35. Thanks

you know, sometimes it doesn't matter if they are good or not. My pics of Obama in Berlin aren't any good either. But I was there and I have the proof :D

[blueraven95]

36. Very true

I'm just really glad I went - I was on the fence about it for awhile - but it was cool to see a huge crowd that was as well behaved as it was. Somewhere between 4.5 and 5 million people is what I heard, and there were no arrests, which I think is amazing. We didn't see any protesters at all. Even when we were packed in so tight we could barely breathe, people were still cheerful and making jokes. I've been to a lot of marches and protests and I've never seen the goodwill that I saw on Tuesday, and that really blew me away.

It's so nice to see how really wonderful can be - especially after the last 8 years of anger.

[MissHoneychurch]

37. It is an once in the lifetime experience

you would have bit yourself in the ass if you hadn't gone. But you went so all is good. And it is really wonderful that nothing happened in that crowd. All were friendly people who wanted to enjoy the day and see Obama been sworn in as President :D

[blueraven95]

38. yep

I'm telling you, though. After this experience, I've decided that when it's the first female president (hopefully a dem, of course) then I will go the whole nine yards - get the hotel room and tickets to a ball, and everything. I won't miss that for anything. :D


I better head out, there are all of these things I should probably be doing, which I'm ignoring. :rofl: Have a great weekend with your mom and her bf.

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

40. Now there is a plan

:D

It is almost time for me to leave as well.

I wish you a wonderful weekend too!!

See ya Tuesday

:hug:

[Inchworm]

21. G'morning MissHoneyChurch

Such a good daughter ;)

The sun is shining and there is no wind. All is well here then. I think it will be a warm day again (45-50F).

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

22. Good morning Inchworm

I am, aren't I?

It is raining here. It is nasty and I prefer to stay inside today.

:hi:

[Inchworm]

23. Oh, don't get me wrong

I'd prefer to stay inside as well :P

:)

[MissHoneychurch]

25. Unfortunately

I had to go outside ... because I had to go to work.

This is how it looks at the moment

[Inchworm]

28. That is still kind of pretty

in an odd, dark way :crazy:

I have to go out to work in a bit too. I need to get my caffine levels up first.

Have a super day.

:)

[MissHoneychurch]

31. See the highest tower?

I work not far away from there.

Have a great day too!! And a wonderful weekend.

:pals:

[BeachBaby]

26. Mornin', Miss Honeychurch!

Hope it's warmer where you are, than it is here in NJ.

Good to hear you're settling in nicely.....all while reeling in the mover. We women are multi-taskers, after all. :rofl:

LOVE IT!!!! :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

30. Good morning

:hi:

Always good to have a man who can carry around stuff :rofl:

We have temps in the higher 40s today. But it is raining all day. Hate it.

[bigwillq]

39. Morning!

I am well. One more day of work and then the weekend off! :bounce:

I work nights and weekends usually, or at least it switches up from week-to-week, so having the whole weekend off is a treat! :) :hi: :bounce:

[MissHoneychurch]

41. Good morning

while you start your workday I am about to leave into my weekend!!

Have a good day and a fantastic weekend, whatever you plan to do!!

:hi:

[bigwillq]

42. You have a good one, too!

:) :hi:

[chknltl]

43. A mysterious looking tower all dark like that!

You could easily convince folks here, that this was a remnant of the Cold War, perhaps a super secret missile of some sort. I remember it dazzling in the sunshine and quite large, I always thought it was quite beautiful, a great large shimmering Christmas tree-topper! I soooooo miss Berlin. Someday, God willing, I'll be back there.


Great news about the mover Miss H! Do you remember that cartoon you had a couple of years back, the one with the empty outstretched hand which made a kitty's head magically appear underneath it? Well, pretty and smart young ladies such as yourself have a similar magic! Eventually a guy always magically appears, looking of course, to get a pat on the head too!

Here is a thought for a second date: Have him take you to an indoor ice-skating arena if there is one close by. Be sure to NOT be as competent on the ice as he is, that way he can give you plenty of assistance.

I'm sending to you, across the waves, my warmest vibes that things work out for the both of you.

(ps: if things don't work out for you with the moving guy, let me know, I have a young friend who works for a local cable-TV company. He is not doing so well finding a girlfriend....

(ps,ps: I'll re-post part of this in your PM Box just in case you miss my warm wishes for you and the new guy, good luck to you Nora)

[Tuesday Afternoon]

44. Just wanted to say Hello.

Have a good week-end :hug: :hi:
