Pre-teens in da house! & Bowling

 

I have 3.....THREE pre-teens in my house tonight.  My kid, and 2 of her friends. 

When did I agree to this?  I dunno.  Miss T mentioned it a couple of days ago and I guess she just ran with it.

Screaming 11 year olds....calling out each other's names at the top of their lungs.  Junk slung all over my "big room".  Looking for I don't know what under my couch.

They found a pair of my black panties (this is where I FOLD clothes people - NOT anything else, trust me).

At least they are home and happy.

awww! Shelly!!

My friend Teresa called me this morning and wanted to meet at noon for Bowling.  I love to bowl and Teresa is a gem.  I said OK. 

I wondered how my acrylic nails would hold up, especially since one was trying to lift.  But I was pleasantly surprised.  No chipping and no lifting. 

My first game sucked big time!  2nd got better.  My 3rd game I bowled my average, almost.  Not bad for an old, fat lady that hasn't bowled on a league in 12 years.

Then we had lunch together and she gave me my belated Christmas gift.  A 'hooker' for my pocketbook (to hang it from a table); some potholders; a pine reed difuser; and a lavendar/chamomile theraputic wrap. 

Sweet!  I racked up!

                      

Then I decided it was time to get my nails filled.  So I tried a place between work and home and it was nice.  Met up with a lady I hadn't talked with in a long while....she's actually our Representative from our district. 

Ourfamilies were friends for a long time, well, still are for that matter.  My bigger little brother and her oldest son and my little brother and her youngest son were friends throughout school.

Well that's about it.....except

I think Tom was lying to me tonight when I got home.  He "seemed" to be acting like he'd had a drink....but he said NO.  I kept saying "be honest" and he insisted he was.

But my instincts are good ----real good.

Then he left.  Said his friend "J" was having a get together to celebrate his birthday of this week and he wanted to go.  And he left.

We'll see what comes home.

I remember the days of preteens in the house!  Never again.  Luckily, since Nicci's older, she doesn't like being home! LOL

I'm sure Miss T is having fun.  I doubt that you are such a fat lady.  Bowling is fun, I should do it again soon.  Have a fun weekend.

I love that willow tree figurine.. I actually have that one displayed in my room on a small hanging shelf. LOL@ the kids finding your panties.. mine would have freaked and never let me live it down and they are youngins... I HATE when my nails start to lift. 2 of them are starting to do it and I knooow I need to get them redone but I dont feel like it.. I cant find a decent place anywhere up here and Im always left injured. In texas I had the perfect spot.. took me 3 years to find it.  Ohh well...
    Take care =)

I like how you conveniently didn't tell us what your scores were other than to say it was average or below.  Having fun is all that counts anyway.  Have a good weekend.

LOL...a house full of pre-teens.  I remember those times well and am glad they are long gone.  I went through it with Becky and then Megan started while Becky's was still going on.  Ugh.  Lots o luck..hehe.  Girls are "fun."  I'm sure your instincts are right on the money with Tom.  Mine always were.  Hugs Chris
