Find a Conversation

Hi, gurls, what cha doin'? I've been trying to catch up with the posts today -- I haven't been around very much lately.
DH and I are in Florida again, have been here for over 3 weeks, but we'll be going home soon. Frankly, I am ready to go home NOW. I miss my GIRL friends. I don't really "know" any of the ladies here at the condos, so day in and day out, the only person I have any real contact with is DH. I mean, I love him and all, but.....sheesh.....you know what I'm sayin'....!!! I am finding myself striking up conversations with strangers in the grocery store....A LOT! That is sad....
However.....my sister and her SO (they live about 140 miles away, in Ft. Lauderdale) came to visit us for a few days, so that was fun. They left yesterday afternoon. I love being with my sister, but man-o-man, that woman can talk! And I mean, non-stop! lol.... (As my *very Southern* Mother says, "She can talk the horns off a billy goat."...lol.) So....although I love spending time with my sister, my ears are enjoying the quiet today. The patio doors are open and I am listening to the sounds of the palm trees swaying in the breeze and the ocean waves crashing on the shore ...DH is taking a nap.....it is so peaceful.
Who's watching American Idol? I think (hope!) that tonight may be the last of the auditions (?). Anyone know for sure?
Melissa, are you out there? I am missing you around here, hope you are okay. I was missing Jacquie too, but I see that she posted under roll call.
It was great to see Becky (consuelateq) here in the Garden, and welcome back Ellen (ep99004) and Chrissy (girlfriendc)
I guess that's it from here....I'll check in later. Have a great day, everyone!

Well girly we miss you! Good to see you here in the garden on this lovely day in Georgia. See what you are missing being down there at the condo.
Hi Ms. Beebs,
I'm getting the visual of you sitting there with the door open listening to the waves.
BB, your visit with your sis sounds wonderful and so does the peace and quiet afterward. lol
I know what you mean about only having dh to talk to. It's just not the same as talking with your friends. For one thing, we can't make fun of our dhs. Yours isn't fully retired yet, is he.? Just wait. lol I'm (mostly) just kidding. Love the old guy, but he can drive me crazy. I'm sure I don't annoy him one bit. lol--Pat
Hi BB, Well, I talk to strangers in grocery stores and I don't have the excuse of being out of town!
