Coffee Chat: If I Could Go Anywhere Today... #CoffeeChat



It is coffee chat time...for me, that would be Pepsi...it is time to talk about a not-so-random topic with Rory. This week she wants to talk about if I could go anywhere today, where I would go? Hmm...?

Well, since she did ask about just today and not long term, that makes a difference as to where I would go. Since I do not have a car...sigh...I would probably walk up to the nearest bus stop, hand-in-hand with the hubby, and head to Sedona. There I can catch up with my Mom.

I would ask her to drive us to the mountains toward Flagstaff. Have you ever been that way? Oh, my gosh, it is gorgeous with winding roads, loads of trees, and the river running along. I think this time I would ask her to first stop at Dairy Queen. Yeah! We would all get some ice cream and check out the Native American wares. Oh, my, their stuff is gorgeous!


Then, after all of that, I would ask her to take me somewhere close by the river. I have been wanting to go down there and take some photos. Maybe we could dip our toes in the river, skip rocks, or make the river move in a different direction by moving big boulders. We would certainly have a picnic.

Oh, I know, we could go down to the trout fishery. The water there runs swiftly and it would be cool to see the fish flitting about. Oh yes, I can see it and feel the cool water wafting over my feet.

After we spent several hours, then we would head back to Sedona and go up to Airport Road. This is on top of one of the mountains, although, I am not sure which. Anyway, we would join others who have come up there to see the breathtaking view over Sedona and watch the sun set over the mountains.

 I am sure we would hear a group of women singing their songs to the sun or hear a young violinist making beautiful music while people drop coins in her case.

Yes! This is what I would do if I could go anywhere. But...

Unfortunately, I have to go to work.

Tuesday Coffee Chat: The Stupidest Thing #TuesdayswithRory #CoffeeChat


Happy day after Monday...ya know, Tuesday! I love the Minions. I totally took this from Rory B's page. I am sure she stole it...um, secured it...from someone else.

Who's Rory you ask? Oh my gosh, let me tell you! She is the gal I used to share my favorite beverage with, via online of course, for Tuesday's Coffee Chat. It has been so long ago that I am sure she thinks I no longer exist. I do, Rory, I do! I am back!


Anyway, she always has these great convo starters and this week is:
                                                                       Foolish Me -- 
What's the silliest or craziest thing you've ever done?

Well, I wish I could say that I was never an idiot and did stupid stuff but then, I would be lying through my teeth. In fact, I have done a few crazy things which I will divulge, but will deny later if it comes up again, especially if my Mom asks. Okay? 

So, a couple of things come to mind both being B.B.Y. (before baby years). The first is when I was 18ish or 19ish. My first husband and I went to visit his Dad that lived on Bull Shoals Lake. He had a ski lift kind of contraption that connected from his house to the boat dock down the hill.  He lived on a private cove too. Pretty cool thing. 

So, we invited my best friend and her then fiance to come down and hang out for the weekend. They were in college in a nearby city. As young adults will do at times, we decided to take off down to the dock, have some bbq, and party.   We had a few but not to the point of total intoxication.  

The next thing I know, the guys are stripping and jumped into the lake. Of course, they wanted us to get in too. Now, it was cool and all to strip in front of my then husband but not in front of my best friends! I hesitated a bit and next thing I know, in goes my girlfriend. Needless to say, it did not take long before I was butt naked in the water too. 

We drank wine and swam around the cove a bit and had a great time. The only issue we had after that was trying to get out of the water without completely falling back in and also somehow, keeping out modesty. Did I happen to mention we had no towels? Yeah, that didn't happen.
----------------
The other time I will mention is before we got married. We were in college and I was 18ish. We went to a college after play party that my then, boyfriend, was in. The problem for me is that I had just come from a not-so-unusual weekend party with my friends. I was already feeling fine.

This party turned out to be a barn party with 100's of kids and a whole bunch of booze. Seriously, I have no idea the different types there was including a few kegs. I know I drank a bottle of Moon Dog Grape 20/20, as that was the thing then. Good stuff!

Next thing I know is I needed to use the bathroom. I was drunk as a skunk.
The only one there was, was at the house from the barn owners, the line was ridiculously long. I finally got to the front and promptly threw myself into the bathroom and threw up. This would not be that big of a deal, probably, if it hadn't been for the several other people that did the same thing before me. Oy, nasty!

If that was not enough, we then went to his friend's house. I had never met the guy. They partook in a bit of MJ (which I did not for the record) as I drank more wine. I passed out.
Several hours later, he took me home. He was a complete gentleman, though, and never laid one hand on me. Boy, was I lucky and only had a major hangover to deal with.

Yeah, stupid!

Hmm....this should be interesting.

Next: This is really random but I totally like it. I do not get his tie though.



Next up: I was one year old when this came out. *chuckles*



How about this one: Can you dance to it?



Finally: As if, this post was not random enough, let me finish with this today.



Wow, now that was random. I have a headache...pass me the Tylenol.

Photobucket

 
1. Hello everyone. If you are just coming to this Tuesday blog then please join in. It is not hard really. Write 10 random thoughts as you think of them and post. By all means grab my thinker button to link back to me. Oh and comment!

2. I love comments! Have you seen this parody on commenting?

 

3. So, on to other thoughts. Did I mention it was freaking hot! Oh yeah it is! This is what it is right now. It is moving in to the triple digits. See that humidity? Ugh.


7. Yesterday I posted my usual Mondays Music Post. I happened to mention that the singer Barry White was one of the people who passed away. People were surprised. For the record, he passed away on July 4, 2003 of kidney failure.

8. Oh his smooth voice! I wonder how many people have actually made love with his voice in the background. Would you admit it if you had? lol

9. Here is another sample of that smooth sound. I am totally diggin' his music right now.
 

10. Maybe it is just because I miss my husband so much. I have not seen him in almost two months now. I love you honey!

10 Thoughts Tuesday/March 20th/Spring Edition


The daughter and Grand-daughter trying on hats at Garden Ridge.
  1. Welcome to another addition of 10 thoughts Tuesday. Today would be the 1st Day of Spring 2012 edition! Whoooo.....
  2. Today was gorgeous outside. It did not rain a drop today and the clouds were simply gorgeous. I should have gone and played in a pond or something.
  3. Instead, I went shopping with my daughter and grand-daughter. We bought flip flops for the daughter. After all, it is flip flop season...always!
  4. I did get a massage today. A real massage. Oh, I was in heaven. I have needed one like in oh...four years! The best thing, it was free!
  5. Came home just before 7PM to watch the Biggest Loser while eating leftover corn beef and cabbage. Um....maybe not the greatest idea in the book.
  6. My family and I are gearing up to hold a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society's, Relay For Life. If you would like to donate on my behalf, I would so appreciate it.
  7. Our fundraiser will include massages, Zumba (lead by the Zumba Queen), tarot reads for entertainment purposes and trivia. We hope it does well because right now we have a goal of $1200 to raise before April 1st.
  8. Lofty goal but I think we can accomplish anything if we go for it.
  9. I am getting tired...drifting...drifting...splashes water on face...drifting...
  10. So, what did you do for the 1st day of Spring? Did you buy flip flops too? What kind or color if you did?
Happy Spring ya all,
Naila Moon

10 thoughts Tuesday...March 6, 2012

1. Hey everybody, welcome back to another addition of 10 thoughts Tuesday. Glad you are here. How is everyone feeling this week?


2. Before I get too far ahead of myself I wanted to welcome another new follower. He calls himself the King of Queenz. He is a stay at home Dad of a bunch 'o girls...such the name. He is also new to Blogger. Go over there and follow him will ya? Tell him I sent ya! lol


3. As always, I appreciate all the followers I have had for a while too. You all are special to me and I would not be here without you. Thanks so much!


4. So, this week (and last two weeks) I have had massive back spasms going on. It has been just awful!! Today is the best I have felt literally in days and able to move.


5. I don't know about you but I think that ground hog lied back in February. It has been absolutely beautiful weather here.


6. We do however live in tornado alley so you could be blown away at any second. Today has been VERY windy but I will take that any day over snow.


7. I am sure most kids (and teachers) in this area feel a bit jipped not having a snow day. I am real sorry about that. (hear the sarcasm?)


8. I shaved off Tamirisc's hair today. I mean he is one bald dude right now.  I didn't want to do it because I love running my fingers through his hair. (ummm...is that tmi?) Anyway, he said he was doing (again) to support our nephew through his treatment for leukemia.


9. Speaking of which, we attended an event called St. Baldrick's. My friend, Debra's, (who I have mentioned before here) son Evan, honored our nephew and raised $415 to have his head shaved. Her son is only 7 years old. We all just think it is awesome! Click on the link if you would like to check out my nephew's progress.


10. Well, here I am already at the end. I seem to have so much to say tonight. Ah, well, dinner does call. I am having chicken. What are you or did you have for dinner? Tell me.


Peace...Naila Moon

10 Thoughts Tuesday


1. I have not done 10 thoughts Tuesday in a long time. Warning they come very random.
2. For the life of me, I can't remember who inspired me today to start blogging 10 thoughts again. sigh...
3. Sheesh...it has been 3 hours since I started to blog this. Just as I was going to start blogging my daughter called and wanted me to take her to the ER again!
4. We spent 2 hours in the ER waiting room and she never was seen. We came home instead.
5. I have been having massive and I do mean MASSIVE back spasms for days not. It is miserable.
6. You would think that docs could do something to make them go away other that giving you pain meds. Seriously, it does not make them go away!
7. Heating pad and Tylenol are my best friends right now.
8. I missed the Biggest Loser tonight. I am going to have to watch it on the net.
9. Life in this little burg of mine has been quite chaotic. I really need to run away...or a vacation.
10. Well, there you have it. My 1st 10 thoughts Tuesday in a long time.  Hang out with me next time and tell me what's on your mind.


Peace...Naila Moon
