Posted: 3/21/14 at 8:48amI can't wait to see how the church Auction goes this year. If I don't get the 50/50's to start selling the pot is not going to be that big! I see me taking over this whole task next year. We should start selling them by January, so by May we can have a really big pot. These people wait too long or get involved in other things, so stuff gets put on the back burner. There is a select few who need their hands in everything and this hinders other fund raisers for hitting their full potential.

It's Friday - YAHOO!
Years ago I set up a silent auction when I was the chair of the United Way Campaign for the company. Lots of hard work - but we got each department (we were a much bigger group then) to submit baskets that each could bid on. My former, former boss was quite a wine lover, so of course, ours had some amazing wine and accessories... somehow, we got some signed LA sports jerseys donated, lots of interesting stuff, and well, some junk. But folks had a great time. Get something good Moony!
And Boobs, next year we will be calling you the Auction Boss!

Truth. This project/boss is eating at my soul.
I helped organize or donate to many an auction between schools, fire departments and then when I worked for TrimSpa. I miss it, but then I see what has gone into planning this bridal shower for next weekend and I remember, ehhh, maybe not.

Mornin'
No Schwimmer sightings. They started loading out this morning. Both elevators. At 7:30. Prime time. I told Max to just go ahead and pee in the elevator.
He's a good dog, though, and he held it until he got in front of the Jehovah's Witness next door.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

morning peeps! I hated pulling the winter coat back out of the closet!!! WTF is this talk of snow tomorrow night into Wednesday?
Busy weekend mixed with sadness. After 16 1/2 years my sons mother had to put their dog, Harry, to sleep on Saturday. As you can imagine she is devastated. Junior doesn't even know yet being he is working in Vegas and we don't want to upset him while he's there. I didn't even post a picture on FB in fear he'd see. Most of you may not know, but I adopted Harry originally. I named him after Prince Harry being Diana's death was still fresh in my mind when our Harry was born. The ex and my sons fell in love when they met him and so I thought he should be theirs. Harry had a very spoiled, much loved life. The last year was hard being he had developed diabetes and some other disease. He was deaf and blind, but kept going on. Friday he just didn't want to eat anymore. She knew it was time. With heavy heart she brought him to the vet Saturday morning. Before he was put to rest she asked the staff to take a stamp pad and make 2 paw prints for her for a plaque she's making of him.

Thanks Tinky. He lived up to his name as Prince Harry. Spoiled rotten and loved beyond words.
BTW Tinky, I may need your help and expertise. It seems my hand raises too quickly at times. It seems I agreed on Saturday to work on my church's website. It's so out of date and BORING! I'm sure you know more about this stuff then I do. We had some suggestions by the Diocese webmaster of sites we can use, but the one he highly recommended escapes me now. It's like Weebly. He suggested this one particular because he said it's very easy to navigate through and they have a great tech staff.

oh wow, that is actually all gibberish to me. I date the computer nerds so I never have to actually know any of the info I have my blog through blogger/google which is pretty much dummy proof.

I think he was a Jack Russell. I could be wrong.
One of the times I met Harry, he was being uppity. 
I forgave him, though.

Moony, he was a Toy Fox Terrier a.k.a Rat Terrier. Once Junior is home I will post a picture of Harry on FB. Poor Junior wound up in the hospital in Vegas yesterday and missed the banquet he was there to attend. It seems after he got all dressed to go he got a severe pain on his right side. He thought if he laid down it would go away. When it got worse and he started sweating profusely he decide the ER was the best choice. His friends drove and stayed with him there for 5 hours as they did all sorts of tests. Luckily they found nothing and chalked it up to a pulled muscle. Sadly they all missed the banquet. When he gets home he will go see his primary physician to make sure he is A okay. He at least had some laughs as he waited in the ER waiting room. It seems a woman patient was yelling "where's my cheese pizza?" when another woman yelled at her "shut the F*ck up!" which was responded with "you shut the F*ck up you cranky b*tch!"

Awww, Boobs, I'm so sorry. That's the hardest thing ever. What a wonderful long and well-loved life he had at 16 years!
I worked on the website re-design for the Chorale about 6 years ago. It was a bear of a project, and we spent hours and hours talking to designers about the different systems that are good to use. I think I've forgotten everything I learned! (Will see if I have a file for you)
I ended up taking a personal day on Friday to take Mom to a Doctor appointment (more surgery/radiation in her future) and then to a funeral. The rest of the weekend was finalizing taxes, helping Mom pack and get organized for our vacation and then doing hours of work when I got home on Sunday. The thrills never end!
Moony, did you end up with anything great from the auction?
Happy Monday to all! Girly, Deet, Brd, YWIW, Tink - hope you all have a great day!

Thanks YOU.
Addy that would be wonderful! I'm trying to make the site more appealing and easy to navigate. Our church is 150 years old this year and it seems we still have some of the first members LOL Seriously. the older Parishioners will have difficult of navigating if I do. The owner never updates weekly as they should. I'd also like to include a "donation" button. I believe a lot more people will give this way. Some of the Elderly can't make it to church and don't have anyone to drop off their donations. This would resolve that problem and hopefully put us for once in the black. It's going to be a long haul, but hopefully we the help from my friends and will accomplish my goals.

BB - we have a rat terrier! He is neurotic and adorable at the same time.
We are basically on death watch for my father. He is not really eating or drinking and confined to a bed. Likely this week.
Great 50th weekend for Mrs. Brd! Much fun! Excellent dinner on Saturday and way too much partying yesterday. Nice gifts from her mother brother and sister. Many phone calls, etc.

Girly - I started watching Scandal finally yesterday. Made it up to S2 E2. I'm liking it. but along with other shows, I have hard times with "soaps" and believing that the POTUS is such a love sick influenced puppy. But otherwise I like it. I want to hug and make tea for Huck, but I already heard some things that happen down the line.
I had an "avoid it all" weekend, or as much as I could. We went down the shore and to asbury park on Saturday and had a really really nice day. Exhausting though as I was asleep before 10pm lol. Now starts the stretch of a few months where, besides family drama growing by the day, I have commitments almost every day of every weekend. But for the most part, all fun.
boobs - oh wow, so good to hear it seems to be nothing!

Tinky, I also started watching SCANDAL this weekend. Although with trying to get HC to move quickly we only made through S1 episode 3. I would've been done with S1 & 2 if I had my way. The one thing that drives me crazy with him...he can't move fast! Everything is done at a turtles pace. I may actually buy him a turtle for his birthday

Sorry to hear that brd.
Boobs, start watching without him. If he wants to watch it badly enough, he'll move quicker.
Love my Scandal!! There was an ep this season where Shonda Rhimes sent out a tweet warning folks not to be eating during the beginning of the show. That scared me a bit. LOL. Then when it started, it had the Warning disclaimer at the beginning. So I sat there with my hand over my eyes, peeking through since I didn't know what to expect and I was glad I did. Kept my eyes closed for part of the scene in the beginning.
And between the ep last week and the ep of The Good Wife last night, I almost need a break from dramas!!
