Tabby, I was tired and slept most of the day. I have to get back into the routine also. My girls go back to school on Monday. :(

Good morning, and goodnight, Bargrove, Tabby, and Carmy!!

Enjoy your food. Pleasant dreams.

Missed you and love you too, Sweetie!

school is such a party pooper. :0( bummer. tell the girls hi for me.

are you feeling okay, Carmy? i have been more tired lately then normal as well. then im wide awake at bed time.

Goodnight Marg! Tabby, I’ll tell the girls Hi for you. I think my sleep is all messed up because I need the routine. We had a nice break, but I can’t be sleeping crazy hours anymore.

Carmy, Crazy hours? lol you have no clue… well maybe you do.

Night marg

Tabby, other than tired, I am feeling okay. I would think you would be tired, you do so much! You need to have some quiet time before you go to bed. That might help you get to sleep better.

Carmy, thats why i come here. :0) i work out on the wii and where myself out then when its bed time i can get on here and read stonesoup bc im not done YET and talk here. go over the day and such. i have been “off” since the 1st. dont get ana till monday so im doing house work.

You’re having a lot of fun with the wii, aren’t you? How is Ana doing?

Since they came out i wanted one. I am having a blast. :0) im glad i talked myself into getting it, in one way… but i know i should have waited to get one till i was out of school and had money bc now was not the best time to get one… but thats a diffrent story for a diffrent place if your intrested.

Ana is good. i got to see her today. she was being silly again. she FINALLY got off of the “i got a baby in my tummy” stage Thank God! so now when she dosent want to eat i take her and lay her in my lap with her tummy in the air and “talk to her tummy” i tell the tummy “why arent you eattting yuo need to eat i know your hungry” then she will come back with “tummy’s cleaning his room” lol so cute. shes crazy. ohh shes getting so big also. its driving me crazy. she knows her left from her right she knows what to do at a stop sign a red light a yellow light and a green light. she knows to look both ways to never let go of my hand in a store or crossing streets. she knows how to pop fireworks. shes so smart and so small yet so big all at once. sniff where does the time go?

You can tell me more later, the other way. Ana is very smart and yes, they grow up really fast!

Is there a stop button? i want her to stop for a little while and let me love her and hold her and hug her more. and kiss her little face.. its funny when shes sick, she is a big kisser all the time she wants to kiss you and hug, well when shes sick no kissing on the mouth and she gets so mad. so i kiss her forhead, left cheek nose right cheek chin and nose again and she gets so anoyed and says “nooooooo tabby right here” and points at her lips. lol oh i love my baby girl im going to miss her when i go back to school

oh goodness the mother of my Godchild number 1 and number 2 on the way is so like this so funny

carmy i just remembered it wassat, sorry about that, its your day off

That was funny. I don’t remember flip-flopping like that when I was expecting.

i do that now, i hate to see what happens to me when i get pregnat * A VERY LONG TIME FROM NOW!*

you jus what?

i fixed it. sorry. i hit the button b4 i was ready. :0)

It’s all okay, Tabby. I spent my day off sleeping, I needed it. Yes, a very long time from now!!!

Sorry Tabby, everyone is still up here and I’m trying to get them off to bed.

since this is a comic stip and all ill comment on the comic… I have do this before Wink, i know the feeling. sigh its not a good one.

Carmy no worries i understand completly im just here and there so no worries

they put these Shelves there just for a laugh i sware.

That’s a crazy place to put a shelf. I hope she had phone insurance!

About Wink and his keys, I’ve had to help other people find their keys, not fun. I always put my keys in my purse, I don’t think I have ever lost them.

i quit carying a purse and when i did it was NOT safe to put them in there. my friend called it “the jungle”

i have them on a lanyard now. smart.

Carmy, okay i love you lots and i hope you get some sleep and sleep well good luck monday, if i dont see you again. but you said something about getting them to bed and my body is ready now. you are amazing. :)

night all peace and love see you tomorrow sometime

Tabby, pray for us about Monday morning. I have a feeling it is not going to go well. Goodnight Sweet Tabby!

DOC TOON I have a bone to pick with you. As per your instruction, I filled the filter and pushed brew last night. Twelve hours later, there is only one half inch of charred black on the bottom of my cracked pot. What gives? How else might I create this nectar of the god’s? There is a nuclear plant around seventeen miles down the road. How do I harness it’s power? Could I have been sabotaged by rodents? I didn’t lose my keys though.

Good Morning Tribe!

Long day yesterday for sure.

Good Morning Doc & Lewreader

Not really much said to catch up on from yesterday.

I figured out that customer’s no start that I have. It needs a fuel pump and man is that going to be pricey!

I finished on top for the MVP for the Saturday Pool League.

Doc, how is “mother and daughter” doing?

Doc, that’s good. The rest is welcome I’m sure.

I hear you, Doc!

Been there, done that, my friend!

-2F here Doc! It is so darned cold today. I guess I won’t be doing the fuel pump today. Lot’s of football today though.

Here they’ve got Steelers/Dolphins, Da Bears/Lions, Ravens/Raiders, Packers/Cardinals! That should keep James & I busy.

Oh yeah, I need to finish my mother’s electric garage door and put a headlight in for her.

Perfect weather here in Colorado Springs for my favorite activity!

Good Morning all. Keys, the bane of my existence.

Yum Marg. I will have eggs over medium with sriracha, homestye fries, Canadian bacon, English muffins and nuclear coffee. Thanks sweetie.

Good Morning Cleo & Cindy Knight

Congratulations Terry on being the Grand Pubah of Cue handlers.

Howdy Doc & Terry. I should go move down to Oregon like JFri. Lack of pants is not an issue there. :-)

Carmy I left a little something for you at Pooch Cafe.

Cleo & Doc, thank you both. That is only this session though. Trying to keep ”Top Gun” status(Thats’ what the trophy is called) with all of the good shooters is very demanding and difficult to do.

Off to do some toonland merry-go-round and checkout FFB so I can try to beat my son today.

I’ll be in and out though……………

Today’s strip is GREAT!!! (Been there, done that!) And as Wink said “This moment is dead to us!” I never said that!

Cleo, just where do you put your keys? ROFLMAO!

Good Morning Dry

Good morning (for 3 more minutes) Doc and Terry!

Good Morning Dry. When I mislay my keys it is never in a pocket. It could be anywhere else though. :-)

Goede Nacht Doc

See you later!

good afternoon Tribe congrats to Terry on the pool thing. i’ve played a little for fun and have some idea of how difficult it is to be that good. well done, my friend. @Dry i had the same thought about cleo and keys that you did. LOL

Good afternoon Yguy! I haven’t caught you here in a little while. Good to “see” you!

Football is on!

My kid is glued to it due to Fantasy Football playoffs!

Of course I am interested too! LOL

Hello MoPar!

Good to see ya, Bro!

hi MoPar & Terry good luck in FFB Terry. didn’t i hear you were in line for a playoff spot?

Yguy, my son and I are playing for the top spot in FFB.

The Vikings are killing the Giants!

Only thing with them that matters to me today is their defense.

James wants Peterson to do better! LOL

glad to hear Vikes are ahead. think i’m going to turn on the tube and see if the game’s being shown in my market. have a good day, all.

Yguy–Enjoy the game. Talk at you later.

I hear ya MoPar! Global warming here too. 14F for a high today. Going to be minus for sure tonight!

Hello MoPar & yyyguy. It is decent here in the middle to upper 40s and thin high clouds. Happy New Year to you to MoPar.

Happy Sunday, tribe.

Back to the regular routine tomorrow. I’m going to miss those short weeks with holidays.

hello to any who is here by to all who are watching football. bbl watching my bro make a fool of himself its fun also.

Hi Saucy, I know what you mean. Back to the old grind.

Hello, Tabby

I lose my keys all the time, then it turns out they’ve been hiding in plain sight most of the time.

Good afternoon, all. It’s been a whirl of a day. Got dizzy at church and left mid-way through. Slightly better now after longish lie down and food.

okay so i just ran two mathrons. wow. im so out of it, but i feel good, all but the headache. i did arobics and played soccar and such its fun. we are playin wii fit today before it was all wii sports now its fit and i like it. i have set a goal to lose 10 pounds with in two months. :0) plenty of time i think. bro just broke the wii fit blance board. :0( on and off.

you know the step bords where you step on and off and work out? well theres a game/work out on wii like it and its so funny looking and stupid but its FUN!

Good afternoon, (((Tribe)))!

Including the recent additions!

Keys: proof of Original Sin.

Just consider how much ingenuity and technology goes into making those little pieces of metal, not to mention the locks, and how much effort into carrying them and finding the right one, and sometimes finding the whole bunch, and lending them out and getting them back.

All because people can’t keep their corn-husking hands off’n other people’s stuff!

[rant mode off]

hello out there

Hi, Tabby!

No football for me–just a nap after a very long weekend…

well hello Bmonk

Unfortunately, I must be off soon (too soon) for a party…

Bmonk May I use your rant for a catechism class?

Sure…I’ve used it on occasion in various ways.

It’s one simple way I came up with to show how much sin affects our lives in ways we cannot even begin to visualize.

Thanks.

Well, must go–and likely late again…

going run a race with bro. bbl

Hello Doc. Another female has been added to keep you in your place.

Hello Doc & Cleo

Howdy Terry. How did you fair against James today?

Doc I have always like surrendering to females.

Cleo, I’m one point ahead of James, but he has two players that are playing in tonight’s game. He is going to win. But it was close!

RL calls, BBS.

Good Night Doc

Lunges never again!!!!!

Doc, you and your love life! Does anyone besides me think Doc is in love? Or is it just a crush? ROFLMAO! Love ya’ Doc!

Oh, Doc is deep in that Love thing for sure! :^)

I hear the Love Boat theme.

With Doc, maybe more “Love American Style”.

Thank the good lord, I can’t remember either of those theme songs, or I would kill the BOTH OF YOU!

Roh-roh

(as I slither back to the football game)

MoPar exactly my point! LOL!*

Sorry Terry, as soon as I saw what was coming up, I left!

That’s alright, I’m comfortable with that. :^)

oh, I just can not resist … just one verse, just one verse, I promise. Nyah, ha, hah!!!

Love, exciting and new Come aboard, we’re expecting you Love, life’s sweetest reward Let it flow, it flows back to you.

Cute, Cleo.

You’ve got that right, MoPar.

MoPar for your info, I was referring to Terry’s link to the theme song! you are the one with the mind in the gutter, sir!

Mopar, I don’t think your comment was appreciated, by ANYBODY. So why don’t you just say you’re sorry to Dry?

Thank you JFri!

Hi Tribe!

You’re welcome, Dry!

Sorry I’m late. Of course, I’m going to bed any minute, but I wanted to say hello to my favorite people.

A busy day for a Sunday. But I did manage to nap 2.5 hours. I guess I needed it.

Tomorrow I have to be up really early, and then the fun begins. Classes start.

Hello Shika & JFri

What was bad about MoPar’s comment.

Hi Shika, the fun begins here tomorrow too. My girls go back to school and I have to get up early :( Hola Dry and JFri!

Gee thanks guys. Now I can go to sleep listening to the Love Boat theme!

Hello Carmy–I’m up early with the kids, too!

That comment was dripping with sarcasm, not syrup.

Hi, Shika, Carmy & Terry. Mopar’s comment went WELL beyond good taste in what he was implying. HIS alleged mind is the one in the gutter and he owes Dry an apology.

Hi Dry, JFri, Terry MoPar and Carmy

There was nothing wrong with Dry’s comment until something was suggested. Let’s drop it, except for JFri’s request.

How was your Christmas guys? I haven’t heard everyone yet.

Hi cleo!

In my case, the sarcasm is in jest only. :-D

Hi Terry, FFB was crazy today, huh?

I don’t think MoPar meant anything mean by it. Comments about minds being in the gutter have been made before by both guys and gals in the Tribe.

Carmy, oh yes on the FFB. And James is on cloud nine for beating me. LOL

I finished on top in only one out of five Fantasy leagues.

Looks like I missed some excitement with a mean dog. I haven’t had time to read any comments since Christmas (hardly any that is) so I have no idea other than catching something on one of the sites.

Why don’t you let Mopar fight his own battles?

Who all(The Tribe) besides Cleo & Yguy is on Facebook? Unless you don’t want to devulge that info.

Terry and those playing Good luck with FFB. I still haven’t check in yet.

Guess I’d better start my routine. I’m late actually. So what is new?

Sweet dreams my friends.

Where’s you go?

Peace and Love Tribe!

JFri–No need to shout. I asked you a civil question. I evidently am missing something here. You also have a tendency to fight other battles here. Don’t jump on me for something you do. Please.

terry I don’t think JFri was addressing you until you got involved. He was standing up for me because he saw an insult to me. When he thinks a friend has been insulted, he stands up for them. And as I recall, you have a tendency to fight battles also.

Wasn’t shouting. And I stand up for a lady’s honor. EVERY TIME! Apparently, you don’t. What’s your reason for fighting Mopar’s battle?

so i see i have missed shika some argument and something else so it seems. whats going on here!!!??? cant we all just behave?

Carmy and Shika good luck with school tomorrow prayers are with you…. does anyone know where jdoc has gotten to? i miss my tribe brother. :0( he should be starting school soon also.

JFri–Yes I do stand up for a lady’s honor. Forget that one.

I was at a loss when Mopar made his comment because it didn’t make sense to me in reference to what Dry had said. I was stating that I didn’t understand what was bad about his comment. Am I missing something?

I know MoPar is a person respectful of others and stated that I didn’t think he meant anything. That is an opinion, JFri. I wasn’t “fighting” MoPar’s battle.

Dry, pretty much of what I said to JFri should answer your comment.

I did not say I don’t have that tendency.

My original comment was ASKING what was said by MoPar that I did not understand. As a Tribe member, don’t I have that right to ask?

We all have stood up for each other. Including MoPar standing up for you! He cares about people, period.

are you here still?

Remark was deleted I see, and MoPar apologized. So we are done here. Again, THANK YOU JFRI, WHO ALWAYS HAS MY BACK!

Yeah, we’re done here and MoPar’s gone from BT. Was it worth it?

Terry, if Dry was offended by the remark that is ALL you need to know! PERIOD!!

Terry he’s made remarks about me before, so ask him.

Jfri i am so loving you right now man, I have NO clue what happened here, i just know that My Dry was offended or hurt or something. so I thank you for having her back and still having it. Love ya. Dry sorry i was not here, good to know jfri is

Wrong JFri! Don’t talk that way to me on an open forum. I can ask anything i want about anybody I want.

I care about Dry and the rest of The Tibe also.

YOU push way too hard and I don’t take kindly to that kind of garbage. Neither do you! Driving good people away from this site is not right.

Dry, if it was bad, I can understand. And I would not approve of it either. But I didn’t see what it was and so I asked. Then I gave an opinion. What is wrong with either of those two sentences?

If he has said something in the past, why wasn’t it brought up. Again, even I wouldn’t approve.

terry I’ve been called out before from others, but I’m going nowhere. If MoPar left, he left on his own. Don’t blame me or anyone else. He apologized, no one is stopping him from coming back, it’s an open forum. And you yourself, tend to push pretty hard, at times.

Tabby thanks so much!

Dry you know i love you and ive got your back, Mom

Terry, you don’t exist to me any more. You do not stand against an elder like Dry and get by with it. I will not acknowledge you ever again. Or until you decide to apologize.

Dry, again, I never said I don’t push some. Nobody is without fault here. Yes you, JFri and I are very pushy. But, here again, check this out. I am going against you both. But that’s okay. If it’s someone else it’s not right. Who writes these rules here. I need a copy.

I asked a question. Still no answer. We do have emails.

I didn’t say anything wrong JFri. Explain that. I do not deserve that. That is a very hurtful post.

And you have not acknowledged me anymore than you felt a need to. I’ve gotten numb to that.

Guys, I may have to grow up, and go to bed early tomorrow night. We want to go hiking, and we have to get up at 6:30 to get to the trail head by 8:00. I’ve been going to bed at 1:00 AM, and that’s just not enough sleep…

Night Marg sleep is good.

Oops, I see I stepped into the middle of something…..

Hi, Marg!! Will this be a mountain bike ride?

Check that…..you said HIKING!!!

Marg same thing i did, we are in this one together girly. but i know i have all of my moms backs her on bt so what happened i may not know, but if Dry and Jfri were upset then im upset.

JFri–What did I say that I need to apologise for? I was respectful to her as a person. I did not insult her.

Tabby, when do you go back to school? Not for a while yet, is it?

And I truly hate to do a cut and run, but I needed to be in bed 2 hours ago. I have said my piece, I know my back is covered, and if needed, I will deal with more in the am.

marg, have fun tmr!

terry why don’t you let it be. A gentleman came to my defense, you weren’t involved, so stay uninvolved.

Jfri the 13th. have to make a trip with ana there this week to check out things

night DRY

Tabby, taking any good classes?

Yeah srry Wink but you r a idiot somtimes! Hey chef marg, I’ll take english muffins, candian bacon, and Cocomocha!
