Miss Mary · #22 Postby **Miss Mary** » Mon Dec 22, 2003 8:28 am

Azskyman - what a neat topic, once again. How do you come up with these great topics? I appreciate the healthy well wishes (have my lovely annual check in a week, ugh), Kris' safe return (uppermost in my wishes this holiday season), and the limo. That limo would come in handy, let me tell you! We even joked we needed one.

Dennis - thanks for the hot air popcorn maker!!! Sure needed that. LOL

Here's my list......might be repetitive.

Azskyman - for Emma and family to move nearby. So she can see her Poppysky every day!

Azsnowman - tons of snow! And good health.

Streetsoldier - ditto on the med insurance. And to feel better.

Cyclone - for your troubles to clear up. And for 2004 to be a much better year for you. Virtual (((hugs))) coming your way too.

TLC - for a healthy ticker, as you said in our phone call. Yes folks, T and I actually spoke on the phone recently! Highlight of my week.......

CSun - for you to find that special girl. "We gotta get you a girl Steve.....". LOL

Raine - more downtime so you can pop in here more. We miss you but I know working again has really thrown your old schedule out the window. And for Dakota to stay well.

Karan - a goody bag of treats - cookies/caramel popcorn/bubble bath/speciality teas/good books/magazines. Because you are always thinking of everyone else and just what they need, you need some pampering I think.

Linda - ditto on the farmland. And continued discounts from Vet's. I am so proud of what you have done for abandoned and abused animals. Warm's my heart!

Ticka/Chad/Marshall - continued success for Storm2K. I am still amazed this site has grown so incredibly fast! TWC's misfortune and bans, were your good fortune!

I'm sure I've missed many, many members. I need more coffee to come up with more. Look for Mary's Gift Ideas Version #2 coming soon......LOL

#26 Postby **vbhoutex** » Mon Dec 22, 2003 4:28 pm

All excellent gifts so far!!

Additions:

Ticka-A seperate line for Donny and his new comp

Dennis-Decades without pain and 100" of snow by New Years day with another 100" by the end of season. At least one year that he doesn't have to evacuate his home due to someone else's foolishness with fire.
Marshall-Time to do whatever he wants to do
Chad and Mrs. Chad-the continued joys of raising a child without all the hurts and of course a harness for Dustin(so he can hold them in check!!)

Karan-Time to do whatever she wants whenever she wants, plenty of paint. and a margarita machine(I'll be right over hon!!)
For the entire STORM2K membership-A 2 week all expenses paid get together-one week at NHC headquarters and one week at SPC headquarters with a party at Cajun Mama's to end it all!!
There will be more later if I can make myself remember to come back here.
But, in case my normal brainwave non-pattern sets in I wish each and every one of you the wonderful PEACE AND GRACE GRANTED EACH OF US BY OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!

StormCrazyIowan · #29 Postby **StormCrazyIowan** » Tue Dec 23, 2003 3:08 am

Why do I need a boyfriend?! I am saucy as I am!! :lol:

Ummmm, still not thinking clearly, as I forgot to come back when I woke up, but I do have a few personalized gifts to share when I have the energy to type it all out!!

Oh, and by the way, not fishing for gifts or anything, but if someone would wish for me to finally catch a tornado that would be terrific!! :wink:

azsnowman · #30 Postby **azsnowman** » Tue Dec 23, 2003 7:38 am

DAVID!!! NO SNOW on New Years, I'm gonna be in Sedona *attempting* to play golf!! The day AFTER when we get home, THEN it can DUMP! "LOL!"

For Pburgh, a endless supply of a GOOD Cab/Merloe mix *wink*
pojo: a GREAT D.I. in boot camp
Jeremy: ditto on what David said!
Jacki: a tornado viewed from FAR AWAY!

Dennis

#31 Postby **vbhoutex** » Tue Dec 23, 2003 7:44 am

Jacki, what is wrong with a being saucy and having a boyfriend? :wink:

And I must add for you the latest in Tornado chasing equipment and the perfect vehicle to put it all in. As well a boss who is as much a weather weenie as Jacki is so he will let her go whenever she needs to chase or do weather related stuff.

David - I think I know where Jacki's coming from. You see I "settled" down in my Junior year of HS, and married my HS sweetheart at age 20. Yes! All true. What in the world was I thinking? A boyfriend isn't the answer to everything. Now I must add had he been a decent, upstanding guy, we'd still be married to this day. But, sigh, I got divorced at age 28 and really lived it up for a few years there before I met the love of my life, my husband Jim! So Jacki - you enjoying your freedom. Plenty of time to "settle down", IMHO. Hope you don't take that the wrong way David, I just think I understand what Jacki's trying to say. My female friends from HS had such fun in their 20s - ski trips, partying, silly fun outings. And most of all - college educations! Did I get to do any of that? Nope! Oh well, I'm very, very happy now. You go Jacki!

Amanzi · #33 Postby **Amanzi** » Tue Dec 23, 2003 10:18 am

azskyman wrote:To Amanzi...a heartfelt answer to her wish for having her mom with her by springtime and for a healthy and happy baby. A six month supply of Huggies and a "Huggie manager" to handle that end of her new baby's business!

Steve that is my Christmas wish all summed up :lol:

I wish everybody the desire of there hearts be granted this coming year and to be healthy and happy

#34 Postby **vbhoutex** » Tue Dec 23, 2003 10:26 am

Gee, sounds familiar except for the divorce part Miss Mary. I was 2o and my wife was 18 when we got married almost 32 years ago. What is most important with you is that you are now happy!!! As for Jacki I wish her all the fun she can stand! Saucy is definitely the best!!!

JCT777 · #35 Postby **JCT777** » Tue Dec 23, 2003 12:26 pm

Here are some Christmas gifts for everyone, which will hopefully last through at least the year 2004:

1) That time will move slowly when we are happy and quickly when we are sad
2) Perfect health
3) The comfort and companionship of loved ones
4) No financial worries
5) The continued excellence and growth of storm2k

Time...good point, there!

The theory of relativity was once explained to me thus....

"If you look upon a beautiful woman for an hour, it seems like a minute; but when you place your hand on a hot burner for a minute, it seems like an eternity. THAT'S 'relativity'." :wink:

Mary

Precisely!! I have a friend who married at 17, and already has two kids, and is about to be divorced! I wanna live before I settle!!

And while men can be fun, lol, I have the time nor the energy to keep up with one right now!! And that can be a good or a bad thing! :lol:

And I must add for you the latest in Tornado chasing equipment and the perfect vehicle to put it all in. As well a boss who is as much a weather weenie as Jacki is so he will let her go whenever she needs to chase or do weather related stuff.

Amen to that!!

Thanks y'all- I'll have my list finalized after I get more than 2 and 1/2 hours of sleep for the day!! :eek:
