You all look like a fun bunch to hang out with. My son is almost 7 so I'm not anywhere near being a Grandma but can I join you all?

Welcome aboard Dorene! I'm hoping someone will post the "leaking, sagging, love n red thread rules" they are too funny and I can never remeber them all, but this is the best place on earth to hang out for everything!

I took the day off from work to spend with both my boys and they've been in and out - but mostly out - all day long! Go figure.

The Granny chat was fun....so glad you made it to this one Lindy! And thanks for sending the rain on to JaeDee....it finally passed over my house on the way!

Nice to see you back Gundi.

WOW!! Ask and you shall receive, LOL... I was trying to catch up here, but I don't think the evening will be long enough, LOL.... What happened to Gundi??? I knew I'd miss important things taking yesterday off...

Welcome Alice... got to be a granny young didn't you? Me too, my first grandson came when I was 40! I think it's so much fun being a granny that young, you still have enough energy to keep up with them.

thank you all for your welcome!

you all said something about what a busy house i have. YES, i do, it also includes a cat, a kitten, 3 dogs, and 2 ponies.

my hubby also has 3 children from a previous marriage, and they are with us for the summer vacation. so we right now have 10 people living here.

i was having a meltdown the last few days, but then i found this site. i am coming out of my slump now.

again thanks for the welcome.

Welcome Eagles! Good Gracious, I'd have been beyond meltdown with all you have goin on, LOL.

I missed page 1000! but not by much,

Welcome to the new grannies and GITs and welcome back to others, even if missing for only one day!!! :clap: :clap: :clap:

Daggie -- YES, I could read that too. Easily!! So what does that mean about us?? That we spend a lot of our time glued in front of a computer screen, staring and sorting out little details? Yep, that's us!!

Cathie -- Hugs and prayers always.

We haven't broken this place yet!!! Congrats to us!!!! Now an interesting experiment we should consider sometime: I wonder what would happen to the page numbers if, at the same time, we all temporarily removed our siggy-line blinkies. Would we shrink in half? Hmmmm, very interesting.

Jill........ we are all waiting....... and now we've used up B (thank you, Nicole-sweetie) and V (thank you, Vicki -- so appropriate to use V!) as well as W.......... down to 23 choices......... I know you can do it!

Lindy -- gorgeous avatar, you movie-starlette-you!! Very pretty!

I see we're now 2 pages past 1000, but just wanted to say congrats to everyone on hitting 1000! : )

Thanks, Vick! I was at a tea party and thought I'd rather put my feather boa around my head. Then everyone started doing it, so I have some funny pictures for a LO.

I love purple (though teal is my favorite color) so I used Lauren's Lavender Essence kit to go with my hair.

I can't believe I won once, let alone twice! I'm trying to stay humble.

I am grateful for my great gang of gorgeous grandiose granny gals very gallavantly galloping along on gallons of giggles and gaggles and gargles. All generations, generally made up of genial generous gentlewoman and genetic geniuses.
