Hiya family! I'm alive (barely)...

So sorry for going A.W.O.L. with no word recently...but JHCOAB I'm being worked to an early grave!

To all who have PM'd me and IM'd me and emailed me and phoned me...and those who just plain ole wondered about me being M.I.A....I'm not ignoring you! I promise, I swear (you should hear some of the swear words recently), and I promise again...I'll be back as soon as I get a breather from the spring/summer rush to kill all upholstery workers!

Here's my days (which are blending together into one big day lately)...

Wake at 3am...feed cat and beat him if he needs it...pour coffee down my throat...shower...kiss the door and go out the hubby...um...or something like that. WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK, WORK...come home smack the cat around some...feed him...do some yard work and actually talk to hubby for a while (more like..."did you feed the cat? no? OK...I'll do it! "did you empty the dishwasher? no? OK...I'll do it! "did you change the litter box, get the mail, set up the coffee pot for the morning, empty the litter box, start the laundry, start dinner, make the bed...etc.? no? OK...I'll get it! What did you do? Oh...you mowed the lawn! Ouch...don't hurt yourself babe!")

JK bout the last part...kinda.

Anyway...as I said...they are trying to kill me and I am determined not to let them so that I can get back here and have normal conversations...instead of above conversation or the ones with fellow employees who only have the weather to bitch about!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh...it felt good to start a thread...of which I highly doubt I'll get back to in the next few days to banter and hug you all up. Suffice it to say I am thinking of you all and I am missing my routine of a Pixie fix in the AM and another in the PM...and all the hours I can grab between!

Call me an :ahole: if you must...but just don't let my seat get cold!

I love you guys!

Happy Birthday/Anniversary/Monumental Post Count/Sorry to Hear About Your Loss/Congratulations/and Sharni? I'll call ya by the new nick (I like it) when I get back for good!

Happy Everything to anyone it applies!

Geezzzzzzzzzz...hope that ^^^ doesn't come off as sucky as it might seem!

****HUGS ALL AROUND****

It's good to have ya back but can you do me a favor, send me your new weather man at WPVI............please lol ((((Hugs))))

Whoa! Did anyone else have trouble breathing whilst reading that?

I read it REALLY QUICKLY like a frenetic woman is wont to do.

Go here, do this, fix this, fill that!

Can I say I never feel like that when I'm single?

(((((Lixy))))))))

Get done with all that work jibber jabber and get back here where you belong. ;)

:hug:

we're thinking bout you too Lixy.....we'll hang on til ya get back but it ain't the same without you....

:D :hug: :x:

Lixy, it's so good to see you post. Really missed you but knew that you were exceptionally busy so had high hopes that when that cooled down, we'd see you again. You two take care and take some time for yourselves.

Still, several river barges of Kleenex remain tied up at the docks in Peoria. *sniff* And, you've heard how GM had to lay off 25K workers because of the reduced demand for Kleenex delivery trucks. (I know, that's not the excuse they used.)

Hope you didn't get belted by all that rain that was in your neighborhood a week ago (I lose track of time ... could have been a couple of days or six months :rolleyes2 ) If you've got too much water, bottle it and send it to us ... it's been awfully dry here. :(

:hug: and :x:

Be well! Life sometimes has it's way with us despite our plans.

I figured you would come up for air sometime!! :D

I understand......believe me, I do. :)

Hugs and kisses to ya girlfriend.....and maybe a nice calming bubblebath too. :x:

LixyChick,

Good to see you post again. Glad to learn that it is "only" work that's keeping you away - at least that will change eventually.

Take care. We will be waiting for you when you return.

Calling you ugly names has never occurred to me (except in those lil fantasies where ya ask me to talk dirty ;) ), & please consider your seat to be very warm when ya get back...& maybe a little sticky...

I'll warm up your seat for you, Lixy. Might use a whip to do it, but it *will be warm when I'm done.

Hey there, Hon! I've been worried about you. I'm glad you finally got a minute to let us all know what's been keeping you away. I hope you can catch a breather soon and come back where you belong real soon. I miss you and all your wackiness.

(((Lixy)))

Don't forget to take care of you!!
