• • • Aliquilts, maybe you could catch a game on the way home?

• • • New numbers have been updated.

Looks like we are going to have a Party!

Woot can't wait to get to meet everyone there. Glad to see it marked.
We have been having power issues in northern michigan with the last snow storm. Been feeling cut off as no internet till Monday night. Real glad we had gas fireplace and well is artesian (sp?). Lost power sat. morning, back sunday evening with no internet, phone or tv though. Then son came out of room monday morning as was just saying got internet back power went back off. Lots of schools closed in area as trees down on lines all over place. Radio says we might have power go on and off rest of week as limbs with heavy snow might take down lines again.
Jean can't wait to meet with you also. Went over and signed up as been going back and forth if would have enough time to get done.. have to get all those siggy blocks done Then thought why the heck not too fun to miss.

WOW, WOW!!!! So many will be there. The place will be filled with quilters and lots of chit-chat. How much fun will that be. LOL. Looking forward to meeting all of you. Sue

Cards are playing out of town when I'd be heading home...besides I may be to tired from all that chatting and visiting new friends! Tentative plan now is to hit St Louis Wednesday, go to the evening game and finish trip Thursday morning. I've never been to St Louis anyway so good time to do a little site-seeing!

Jean, did you get CitySandie's e-mail? She seems to be missing from the list!

• • • Angela, you had me scared there for a minute. You may want to get your eyes checked dear.

Jayardi .. this is making me grin, actually .... i had send what I th ought was my request themoment your note came out ... however, due to circumstances completely within my control - and apparently failed to observe just as completely, I missed that my request didn't actually get to you ..
having mentioned in another thread how excited I am for that whole event, Angela the Angel sent a note telling me I had blown it somehow .. not her exact words but really close thanks Angela. And thanks to Jayardi for putting this together. Meatloaf. $25.00 meatloaf. Does that include gratutiy? Just askin' ...

What a coincidence Jean....I just got the eyes checked today!

I refuse to get my eyes checked ever again...the last time, I ended up with bifocals and my whole world changed!!!!

Hey Sandie ... YES IT DOES include gratuity, dessert and drink oh yes, and TAX, of course.

Time to get things organized!

Jayardi: email on its way.

SS: check written, will mail it tomorrow with some other goodies for you.

Next on the list, will take down the number and call in the morning to make reservations for a room.

See you in Branson.

edited for spelling - just once I would like to do it right the FIRST time!

• • • Got it Deb.

Angela, what did the doctor say/see?

Thank you SS ... makes it so much easier.

The intraocular lenses look great, no need for a prescription change on my readers and he filled out my drivers license renewal & said I still don't need glasses to drive.

So, I can see...I just don't always look! I think I forgot that editting a post doesn't move it up. When I saw it was still on page 2 (or was it 3?) I got worried

• • • I see. That's great that your script didn't change. Mine does every year.

This is going to be a great party! We're over 50 guests.

Glad to see so many of the quilters can make the early dinner. Sue

I'm so behind on everything due to computer issues and wanted to bump this up as a reminder to others!

DH still won't commit one way or the other. (I don't like indecision!) I've got my room with or without him, but will have to pass on this. But don't worry! Y'all will get your fill of me before the retreat is over!

Sherry, a girl's got to eat!!! Come on and join us. Maybe Saved can squeeze the procrastinator in at the last minute, if he decides to come.

Y'all are so bossy! Okay. I'm in.

I did mail my check to SS... she should have it by now (I hope). I'll keep watch to make sure it arrived okay.

• • • Malou it has arrived. List is updated.

It's about time Sherry!

There's a country song out there - Waitin' on a Woman sung by Brad Paisley. At my house, it's the other way around. I've always rather lived by the motto: Right or wrong - DO SOMETHING! Of course, I've gotten into trouble a few times.

DH studies about it. He'll have it figured out by retreat time...

REALLY??? NAH .... NOT KYIS ! I've heard tell there ARE some stories out there with your name on them .. or was that the walls I bet some Texas gals could speak up !!

See...that's why I'm going to this retreat. Y'all will not be able to talk about me behind my back - you can just do it to my face!

That's right! And lookin forward to HUGGIN your neck too Sherry!!!

WHO ELSE IS UP FOR SOME YUMMY DINNER WITH FRIENDS

• • • Whoo hoo the sisters are joining us.

I just realized that I'm not on the list! Yikes! I will be there and want lasagna!!

• • • Margot, please send me an e-mail: jayardi@wi.rr.com.

Thanks

You are gonna get a PHONE call today Ms Rainbow! I noticed you weren't on there ... but GLAD you will be now!

Did anyone ever discover what KIND of fish they use in their fish and chips?? If it isn't halibut or at least cod, I may have to change my order---there's still time isn't there JRD??? LOL

• • • Did I forget to do that?

Yes, there is time. I'll see if I can find an answer for you.

still thinking...

Lori, if you go, I'll bring Skyline for you! They have it microwavable now.

I just have to ask: What is Skyline? Some kind of food I know.

I'm ready to go try these menu choices!!! Open open open !

Woo Hoo I have my choice I will have the fish and chips. Sent my choice to Jayardie. Thank You Saved Sinnr for checking it out for me. The fish that they use for the fish and chips is Catfish. Being from the NorthWest I have never thought of Catfish for fish and chips as we use Cod or Halibut but Catfish would make a good choice. I like Catfish. One of the best fish dinners I ever had was a big fliet of Catfish. Umm Umm was it ever good, This was in Carlsbad, New Mexico.

Patty, I think that they are talking about Skyline Chili. Man, I am hungry for real food about now! After being sick over the weekend and everyone else in the house sick either before or since, there has not been much eating around here.

Just read Handie Ann's info that the fish and chips is catfish---well, OK, I'll try it since she thinks it is good. Seems to me I did try it once in Mn several years ago, but I don't remember if I liked it or not---hmmmm, couldn't have been TOO bad --I'll ask for extra lemon--Thanks, Ann, looking forward to seeing you again!!!

Well, I still don`t know when I will get there, but am going to go ahead and pick the Fish and Chips, the catfish got me. I love Catfish!!
I will send a check out today with the money for the T-shirts and dinner.
I don`t want to miss eating with everyone!
Tammy

GLAD to see y'all enjoy such an Ozark specialty! And just let me say ...

THE CATFISH IS FARM RAISED So if you think it's too strong ... these are not caught in rivers or lakes, they are farm raised on grain specially for restaurants ... and they are YUMMY

Chicky, I've had catfish and it wasn't pretty, Caught them in Mississippi tasted really gamey. I'm still going to give them a try I'll believe you SS that they are yummy. Pat

• • • HOLY CATFISH! 61 guests for dinner.

I may even have to change my order for catfish. SS, if you do sample the catfish, does it come out greasy? Is it deep fried or pan fried? We have fish fries almost every Friday and I get bored with it. Although, they don't serve catfish around here.

Muggomuggo, please send me an e-mail so I can officially add you to the list. Thank you!

HAHAHAA by the time we actually get there we may have the wholepalce to ourselves!

Is the fish and chips meal catfish or are you just wishing it was? The original info did not specify what kind of fish.
