Ry Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Ok, we have a party date, July 24th! Unless it turns out it is incredibly bad for lots of you, then we can switch to the following weekend. So check your calendars, mark it down, send me your address so I can mail you directions, and lets get together for some fun. Hopefully we'll dry out by then, our house is about to float away or fly away between the rain and the tornado warnings. It will be great to meet you all.

cathy Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Ry I am marking the date down and am looking forward to it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurielK Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 You've invited Michiganders and Wannabes. What about "havebeens?" Or are you assuming that havebeens left for a reason and don't wish to return? I think your party sounds wonderful. Hope you get a big turnout. (No, I couldn't make it in July even if you had invited havebeens. I did like living in the Kalamazoo area for 9 years, tho.)

Snowflake Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I'm sure Jill does! She's 5....sticky fingers all around...and face...and arms... Ahhhhh, the joys of parenting (thank goodness for wet-wipes!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted May 24, 2004 Author Share Posted May 24, 2004 Think it's too late to change it to a sticky David baby. You'll just have to keep posting crap on here to move it up every few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephnewyork34 Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 wish I could come, I love Michigan so much. Oh well, I am in Copenhagen, so I guess I won't make it. Have fun! and have some fun for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosanne Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 I already emailed Ry. I think Gianna-daughter- and I can make it. We have a lot going on that weekend but I think we can get out there. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Rosanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phyllis Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 Hi, I would love to come if at all possible. Michigan is just a hop, skip and jump. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe B Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 Gina & I will be there (of course Ry is only 5 miles from us), Dont even THINK about the TP action, my house is going on the market next week... I don't need any TP to chase away potential buyers BTW- if it sells we will be homeless until the new place is finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowflake Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 Joe, Living by the city I'm SURE you can grab some of those boxes from appliance stores... Hubby and I are looking into a nice refrigerator box ("Sold" sign on our yard and 3-6 inches of water on the land we want to build on) and possibly a box from a dryer for a formal dining room... Hope yours overlaps better! Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe B Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Becky. Hang on to that box, I may need it when youre done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginnyde Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Hey Becky, You sold your house, that is just great. I want to downsize so badly, this huge house and grounds is just too much for little ole me. But the Duke does NOT want to move. Oh well. When are you moving? Tell us about the new house? Is it your dream house? Does it have an indoor pool? Home spa? Live in cook and maid? Ginny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowflake Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Ginny, 90% sold, not "sold" until the check clears the bank - closing is June 15. Dream home? Not exactly, but a HUGE building block...have some plans to get it that way. Closest part of the dream is that the ex-wife will have NEVER been in the house (she took her son's key and came in this house while no one was home prior to my marrying this guy...went through his refrigerator, even - and that's just the tip of the iceberg!). Now, the kids don't have keys to our house unless they LIVE here.. Ahhh, tranquility - 30 miles from the ex should be far enough to stop the dropping by and THAT'S gonna be Heaven! Right now, house is on a lake! Wish it would drain...fast. Builder and contractor will be looking it over on Tuesday and we're supposed to get MORE RAIN (can you BELIEVE IT?) between now and then... We'll get there...some day...hopefully by the time my son has to start school! I dunno if the bus will stop at our box or not... Well, Joe - I COULD get two boxes and make a duplex...

Lisa O Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Well, I can't wait to see everyone!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyS Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Where in Michigan are to talking about? Would it take me 2 hrs to get there? Or 6? SandyS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaL Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 My husband is on vacation that week and we may just be there for the party, depending where he is in his treatment. I will know more on how's he doing in the next month.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ry Posted May 28, 2004 Author Share Posted May 28, 2004 Well not 2 and not 6. Would think in the 5 hr range? We are 80 miles from the Ohio border right off of US23 if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
