My parents got into town this weekend so between work and family I've been MIA since Sunday afternoon. It's taken me about an hour just to read through all the new posts, new people, and such....and I really am bummed about missing last nights chat.
I'll be on and off all week but will try to at least read even if no time to post!
Cheers and hope everyone has a great week!!!

I love how busy the board is too!
Let's see, did the Bucs game on Sunday, had fantastic club seats and we WON!!! My parents have never been in such a big crowd (about 50 thousand at the game that day).
Yesterday we did the Sponge Docks in Tarpon Springs, boring but kind of a requirement when visiting this neck of the state and then Tampa International Mall where my mom treated me to a new purse, sweater (yes it does get slightly cold here eventually in the winter) and a pair of shoes. It made me laugh, I am about to turn 35 and my parents haven't bought me clothes since I was maybe 19! It felt funny but she really wanted to.
Today we went to the Hard Rock Casino (yes same casino Ana Nicole Smith died) and my parents did what they love most, gambled. For me it's nearly torture as I can't stand the sound or the smoking..but I smiled and said what a GREAT time I had (hey, I am a good daughter,...and they just bought me some sweet new things at the mall.....). Then when we got home Justin (dh) deep fried a turkey, mashed potatoes, corn, biscuits....then swam in the pool till bed (or until they all went to bed and I got on JM!!!) Between getting home and dinner I took another HPT which I started a new topic on....
