Oye CHICA!!! Darlene, you know I'll never be far, I mean aren't we the only true south FLA's online? LOL. YOU are not rid of me yet, missy! LOL BTW-update- I'm having trouble checking the tenent's laws, but will get more info (South FLA internet troubles or someone hacked into the local GOV lines.) I've been busy with work/househunting and homelife. (grin). I couldn't find contractor bags at our home depot here in little havana, but they'd heard of them and they sounded so cool.I am going to wrap dainty dishes and crystals in paper then buffer with kitchen towels, bath towels etc. Great ideas. What's your opinion on those *vacuum bags* ( as seen on TV...hahaha). Any good? I did hit up my local grocery (Publix for Darlene) for boxes as well as my work for the computer paper boxes. The notebook idea is great!!!! A friend said to tape a plastic organizer file to the box to easily extract the print out of what's in the box (my handwriting is atrocious! Hahaha!). I appreciate the help! Moving just a few things is okay, but a household move is soooooooo much more!!!! Where did I get all this stuff? ACK!!! Your semi-packrat pal, cookie

Hey there and welcome!!! cookie ------------------

Oh mt gosh, these have been funny!!! Glad you enjoyed the sherlock one,it's pretty famous...mind if I submit more? Short scottish joke: To men drinking in a pub discussing dying the best way. "yeah"guy 1 says"Iwant to go like me granddad, peacefully in my sleep. Not screaming and shrieking in terror like his passengers." The very bad cookie ------------------

Thanks pals.... *ahem* I must comment on one thing ..Spitfire, who has added a whole new level to sporadic by doing her ninja visits to different sections of the forum(I.E.Hmmmmmmmmm)has much gall teasing MOI about occassional belated postings. Lifted eyebrow and wicked sister grin. but I digress... Thanks for the welcome homes and sisterly head thumps to my nogin for having been missing for too long. Love you too gang. hugs, cookie ------------------

Great present you got... If you do end up peeling the grapes, I believe you can make Grappa out of them. Cookie what about pear ice cream?

Hey there, Since I see the traditional brown, I'm tempted to wink at my Great Britain friends and ask what they've been partying with? LOL It sounds like a flux in your server actually. much hugs cookie ------------------

Becca-Annnnnnnnnnnnnne! Major hugs to you and our silly Hillbillieeeeee for ever worrying about not being able to post. Hello! This is the cyber, you live in the real *World* and sometimes the cyber space has to wait. It's that simple and all understand, okay buddy? much love and hugs.. cookie ------------------

Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson go on a camping trip.After a good meal and a bottle of wine, they lay done to sleep.Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see." Watson: "I see millions and millions of stars." "What does that mean to you"? Dr. Watson pondered a moment. "Astronomically, it tells me there are billions and billions of planets. Astrologically I observe that Saturn is in Leo.Horologically, I deduce that it is a quarter past three.Theologically, I can see that God is powerful and that we are small and insignificant.Meteorlogically, I suspect we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?" Holmes was silent a moment then spoke. "Watson, you moron, someone has stolen our tent". LOL ------------------

Prayers, love and hugs girlfriend, I'm praying for strength for you and yours and tenacity. Much loving hugs, cookie here if you need another shoulder too.

Oh Good grief gang, we sound like one of the TV spanish novellas (spanish soap operas)...LOL. cut to scene: Cookie, seriously vamped up in red lipstick, nails and a chi-chi dress.Exposing way to much jewelry (and clevage) for mid-day...SUDDENLY, she confronts Darlene! "Nunca pensabas que algun dia tus secretos sagrados TODOS iban a saber!" (You never though that one day your sacred secrets would be known by all!!! insert harsh musical flourish here). But seriously, I'm ashamed others felt they'd have to "mediate" and/or worrry. Sorry gang, I feel very sheepish right now and extend both the apology to Darlene and friends. the ever zealous but clueless cookie ------------------

Proud of you for braving it all and praying too (and handing over a margarita, just for moral support.) cookie

Another song that I loved and don't know why or why it could instantly cheer me up... "I'm not your stepping stone..." or "Take the last train to Clarksville and I'll meet you at the station" the ever hokey cookie ------------------

OMGosh!! I loved that song!!! This song is considered reaallly bad, but I mean nothing by it but I love it! PUFF the magic dragoonnnn lived by the sea... ------------------
