about genie2u

No one said life would be easy, just that it would be worth it !!

Can't wait til ACC basketball season!  Go TARHEELS!

My fav holiday is coming up - Thanksgiving! I have hosted since 1995 now, I cook for about 40.  I remember the first time, I was 21, and so scared! I used stove top stuffing mix, instant mashed potatoes (boxes and boxes)

Now I use my gramma's recipes and do it all from scratch.  Can't wait

 

 have grown fond of many of you on GOLO.  Some of you have grown on me in a good way, others like a fungus (lol) but really, I would like to get to know more about those I spend so much time talking with.  So if you are visiting my page, if you have time, and are willing to "step from behind the curtain" - tell me a little about yourself...

  1. My occupation is ________________
  2. I live in ____________________  (city/county)
  3. I am _____________ years old
  4. My favorite thing to do is __________________
  5. My least favorite thing to do is? _______________________________
  6. One habit I wish I could break _________________________ (other than GOLO  lol)
  7. And finally - you would be surprised to know that I _________________________

 

Words of wisdom that I borrowed from Shoebaby's profile...

The woman came from a man's rib, not from his feet to be stepped on;

not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal.

Under his arms to be protected and near his heart to be loved.

he's back...I may drop out of golo for I bit. Nuttin personal to you, I am just your everyday guy, who has a brain (like you) and gets pizzed off from these nurf ba lls. I have trollers, so I will email.

We're gonna get you into ACC football 1 way or another! Even if it means you're pulling for those hooligans in light blue!

sheet, 1 am, and here I am. Got booted from a group just for being my usual self. Time to lay down with the little mutt. Once again, thanks for having a mind, and being my buddy. I will email later...

Have you heard anything else from Jack? I'm a bit worried....

good news/bad news...the neurosurgeon looked at my new x-rays today, examined me, and said I would live. He said I was a bad boy for not doing my physical therapy...months ago he said I would never be normal, now he says I am a bad boy, not sure why I pay him for what I already know! Also gave me some serious mustle relaxers which I doubt I will take. I can't do groggy with a dog to leash walk...sounds too much like another chance to fall. So, looks like I'll be around here a while longer. Glad you had a nice weekend, Jay

Good morning to you Miss Genie =)

Well good luck you ya, darlin' =)

ACK!!! Your stick is in someone else's truck? Isn't that a crime!?!?!

Thank you much!!!

and Thank you for being Jack's friend. He needs friends right now!

Good morning to you Miss Genie =)

LOL, but this one is so purty and RED!

How did you shoot last night?

That's great your husband is in the fire academy. I'm sure he'll love it.

I wish your husband and family luck with the business in Mebane. Mine is a more simple approach in that my goal is to be a "personal mechanic" with no overhead, no employees, and other options.

My property is zoned as a "home based business".....which includes my 4 bay shop. I can do just about anything, but view my goal as a more personalized approach versus the general "pull in's".

My customers get more than just repair, they get an education via photography, technical data, and other information that aids them in better understanding how their cars function and the benefits of prevention over repair.

Maybe it will take off....maybe it won't.....time will tell....

My independence is what is important....and I will pursue whatever measures necessary to remain "the boss of me"...

Again....GOOD LUCK......:)

Hi Genie: Saw your question on my profile. I won't say too much, but I do feel that a certain amount of respect should come with holding the title "President of the Untied States," no matter who you are. I was taught that at a very young age. Just one woman's opinion though... Thanks for asking! -Angela

My golo time is sort of like sex. I'm in and out every chance I get. LOL

geniethang, we are doing ok. I am thankful to the support from my golo buds. Sorry you did not make the yard sale on Sat/Sandra's...still send her a check. Whatever you can do. J

Hello Dear! Long time, no talk. Hope you had a nice weekend.

smooooooch, baby. always

Just for clarification:

"Kid4 - What is wrong with OBAMA speaking the truth. Dayum if he does dayum if he doesn't. some will never be happy."

I'm beginning to think that people didn't realize that my blog was about the notion of the article that was partially pasted in/linked to at "Continue Reading" at the end... otherwise, how does your comment tie in with my having said simply that all news media have chosen sides and report with a slant?

Not that yours was the only comment that was directed at something that I didn't write, for sure. The rest, I wouldn't even dignify with a personal comment!

LOL

G-one. Can I be the first today to tell you, that you are a hottie? Sheet if I was not old, I would chase you around three blocks, ok maybe just two! I told you I like smart chix...that is what gets me in trouble though!

"TBK - you are horrible... actually I giggled, I nkow you meant know harm, and sometimes you have to find a reason to laugh in the middle of all the tears."

Thanks, I'm glad I was able to make someone laugh. I didn't mean to take away from a very valid topic. Sometimes when people are so serious, they need a laugh!

actually, i have about 1-2 weeks left out of town. i do have my laptop with me though.

left this at ladyblues, thought you may wish to see it...ole gal (you said it not me), you are probably long gone by now. You and Genie offer the best comments...no pressure, but you have great wisdom. I can't say beyond your years (ouch), but Genie is just a youngster.

Jack back, you are fun...give some consideration into getting involved in Sandra's causes, and some of our fun activities. I know you have a houseful, but let hubby babysit!! Click to view my profile

1. My occupation is Analyst 2. I live in Wake Forest(city/county) 3. I am 53 years old 4. My favorite thing to do wouldn't pass the sensors. 5. My least favorite thing to do is? Being told that I can't have my favorite thing! 6. One habit I wish I could break is needless cruising, I just love to cruise in the country with the top down 7. And finally - you would be surprised to know that I am also a commercial pilot?

I'm 36 and have had panic attacks since I was 16. I can go places but if I go with anybody else including my kids I feel trapped and that is when I have them. My mom used to always force me to go places and even had my older brother carry me to the car and hold me until we were away from the house so that is how it began and it has just gotten worse. I've tried medication but they messed with my head too much and I ended up in the hospital because of them.

If you mean it cost me my friendship with Tesy, FAIL.

thanks for the updates on SOA! that cleared up several things, i had caught on to the Opie situation but I didnt know all that other stuff about Jax, his mom, Clay and his Dad. and the crackbaby, who is the Mom?

I am cracking up at your request for show updates. You should tell everyone to meet you in GOLO chat while the show is on and give you a play-by-play. You have an amazing attitude. Best to you and hubby. -Angela

Rest assured I have not, nor will I, ever care what a bunch of people on a website think of me.

GOLO is a WEBSITE of people. Not family or good friends. Just random people who all happen to read WRAL.com. Some you like. Some you hate. Some you wonder what God was thinking that day. Either way asking for handouts, whether legit or not, should not be allowed on here. Same with the blog for hope. In no way do I even remotely agree with that happening on GOLO. It should only be sanctioned if a WRAL employee handled the money raised/donated. A random person starting it? Not kosher.

is this the second or 3rd season of SOA? was thinking about renting the DVD to get caught up.

lol...that was fun!

Have you ever heard of Hulu.com? They have so many shows online AND they just launched a Facebook application that allows you to watch show premieres, right on Facebook. When I canceled Cable for a month to teach my daughter that she could live and live well without the Disney Channel, my husband found all of his shows online and after I told him about Hulu, he was hooked! -Angela

Thanks for the request, I am going to have to read my list closer, I thought you were already on it!! LOL

Happy Thirsty Thursday / Friday Eve Genie!!

pizzy vibe on here today"

Guess I've become accustomed to that on here...How in the heck are ya? All settled back in?

lol @ the santa slayer!

Hi Genie...I use the Sure Jel as well. And I have been through 55 pounds of sugar so far between the Apple Pie, Peach Pie recipes, Jams, Sweet Pickles, etc. Every time my Hubby brings in more sugar we just laugh now. We barely use 10 pounds within a year.

The Apple Pie and Peach Pie in a Jar is like the pie fillings...no crust. It is to be warmed and added on top of Ice Cream...Vanilla seems to be the best for this as it is like a Fruit Pie Al-A-Mode. Maybe even some Angel Food Cake with whip cream...or maybe to put in the middle of a cake...YUM just thought of those last two *LOL* BUT I would think if you want to Jar it and later add to a crust it would save some time. Never really thought of doing that. My Sister made the Apple Pie in a Jar a few years ago and it was a big hit with everyone so I wanted to try it too.

you soudn a lot like her, but i don't think it's really you...this cousin lives btwn wake forest and raleigh.

UGH mis-read your question...I do not use the Sure Jel for the Pie Fillings

Hey Genie2u How are things back in N.C.? I Have 2 kids of my own, 2 Girls, Megan 12 and Emi 6, they live with their mom in N.C. I miss them like crazy, my wife now lives in Texas but she is from Cary. I have lived in Raleigh since I was 13, I Love N.C. and can't wait to get back there. Take care!!!

Prom - who is your avatar a pic of?/endquote

if you figure it out without him telling you then you will come close to capturing this ubergeek's heart..

hi genie,

i was just picking at slick... sorry if it came across wrong. I was just teasing him!

don't worry about morsdeis, he hates everything everyone else holds dear.

"Prom - who is your avatar a pic of? It reminds me of something I just can't put my finger on it. A TV Character maybe..."

Hmmm...I started to tell you but who am I to interfere in affairs of the heart (even the ubergeek kind)?

HINT:

"What is the avatar's name?"

Ty's probably just hanging out in some comic book store - pining...

"Hey what happened to the old avatar? Your new one seems to "serene" to fit you. lol"

It's a picture from Glenn Canyon Dam. I changed so heely could see it. I'm trying to find me a new one that fits my demeanor. LOL

done

Three boys are in the school yard bragging about their fathers. The first boy says, "My Dad writes all day. He scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a POEM, they give him $50!"

The second boy says, "That's nothing. My Dad writes all day too! He scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls his a SONG, they give him $100!"

The third boy says, "I got you both beat. My Dad also writes all day. He scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls his writings SERMONS. He reads them in church, and it takes EIGHT MEN to collect all the money!!!"

Dont say that Con Amor did'nt make you smile today! Have a great day!

:D

Thanks for your 3:28 blog about Angela...I totally agree. The whiners have gotten me propooted several times, even twice in one day! Angela knows me, has profiled me, but some of her peeps just respond to "abuse" buttons, regardless of the content. She has more to do than deal with the children on golo. So do I, I have never sent her a complaint. She ain't my mama.

BUSTED for slacking! You're right, it should change more often. I like to put blogs that ask questions in that slot. Sometimes I think I see a good one only to change my mind when I click on it and read it. I wish more people understood that good stuff gets them featured. If you ever see anything worthy of front page billing for that section, shoot me an email with the link or post it on my profile page. And in the meantime, I'll make some changes now that you've lit a fire under me. LOL! Happy Friday. -Angela
