RE: ScrappyMama6: Scrapkaty Said: Love how this thread skips from one subject to another... drama....birthdays.... I have a question about something I've seen lately in posts.... "THIS"... What does it mean? I think I missed out on THIS! Its like saying "Ditto"....or I agree completely, couldnt have said it better myself....

I had a friend in California. She not only gave birth on the same day as her sister did - they were in the hospital together and shared a semi-private room.

Their granmother visited them in the hospital and that was quite an event. Their grandmother was Dale Evans. The girls were the daugter of Dale Evan's bio son.

It was nice that family could visit them both in the hospital in thier room together!

I definitely would have pregnancy hormone overload and would be blowing sparks out of my head livid that my sister not only was pregnant at the same time but had the baby at the same time and in the same room.
Or maybe that's just a little "Marsha, Marsha, Marsha..."

No, I'd be livid.

My son was due on my MIL's birthday.

Thankfully he was nice and cozy in there and made his appearance a week later.

I can't imagine all of the "Ooooh, he's my birthday present!" bs I would've had to endure. Ick.

THIS! This group of ladies saved my life about a year ago...literally. I was at a VERY low place last year and stumbled across the Venters, and they welcomed me immediately. Im proud to have them as friends.

I loved the venter's thread - but it goes so fast I can't keep up. Awesome people over there but if I'm not on the computer all day I struggle to catch up with what I missed. Like the people there. A LOT!

Today is going to be an easy day - I will be home alone (husband got an order for 20,000 license plates so he and my son will be sorthing and boxing them again all day today for the 3rd day to try to be ready for the customer to pick them up on Saturday and has a 300 plate order to get ready to ship to Hawaii and several other orders for volumes of licenses plates on his desk). It would be a good day for me to try to catch up on that thread!

Heck, I had to take a blood oath to be mean when I joined. Or maybe it was just their way of being mean to me since they know my horrible fear of needles/getting poked.

I do agree though, that we should TRY to keep the drama off the sb boards,,,,,if you want drama, head for the NSBR board

I do have to say though,,,,,,

that if you think THIS PLACE is filled with drama,,,,,,try the veggie site!!!!!!!!! oh.my.gosh. you'll come back here thinking this is internet heaven!!!!!!

What's "the veggie site"? I've seen this mentioned so many times and I don't get it at all. LOL

Birthdays: my husband was born on his parents' fifth anniversary.

My dad was born on his mother's birthday, as was one of my cousins.

My sister was born the day before my grandmother's birthday, and I was born the day after my grandfather's birthday, but that's not as interesting.

awwww shucks! - all the attention I'm getting here. I just don't know what to say.

I don't mind being the fall guy- --blame me! Blame me!!

I'm not sure what I did, but....

As far as sharing birthdays with MIL, don't they say that a man will look for a mate who's like his mother?

Aug '11

Oh, and as far as Megan's demise...

You know, floors get slippery with all that mopping; it could get dangerous... accidents happen!

I'm just saying...

and now

when Linda goes mysteriously missing ... we shall all know why ..

Yep, when a kinder, gentler "Faux Linda" shows up, we know its her reeling from that dirty mop water hitting her!

You know what really sucks? when someone makes one of these broadsweeping posts "stop it...you know who you are" and you don't have a clue what they are talking about or who they are talking too! Are you even in the right site? I think you mixed scrapbook.com up with some other site.

I challenge you to defend your post.
List the links to 20 threads you consider "high drama", "overbearing personalities/conflicts/t oo much information" or someone has "unloaded their burden". These links must be from the General Discussion area and are not older than a week.

Put your money where your mouth is! You think this site is "high drama" and not scrapbooking oriented...then prove it. remember the threads have to be from the Scrapbooking General Discussion

well it looks like Yellowtail did not take my challenge. And I was hoping for a bunch of links to all of the DRAMA I missed...

Seriously, after reading this thread, how can anyone think the people here aren't FABULOUS?

Complaining or getting irritated sometimes or even a little snarky -- that's life, folks. It's not ALL rainbows ALL the time. (Frankly, I'd throw up if it was.)
