Guest guest Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Hi Sue, Sorry to be so slow replying, but I didn't have internet access over the weekend. I'm having e-mail withdrawal real bad. Yeah, I live in the northern suburbs and that snow really did a number on my joints. Believe me, you can live without it. There are good things in the area too--museums and plenty of Hobby Lobbies hahaha. Have a great week! laura <susan98@...> wrote: > Good Morning ! You live in Chicago?

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 Hi Kathy, I live in Woodstock, which is about 50 minutes from Gurnee Mills, one of my favorite spots. Ever go to Black Market Minerals? It's in Gurnee Mills and so is Serpent Safaril. There are a few of us from IL. I wonder if the weather is just too much!! laura kringlemom@... wrote: hey laura where do you live? i am by great america kathy in il Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 This is so cool, Kathy. I try to catch Gurnee Mills in the middle of a weekday. It's quieter then. Woodstock was such a nice town when we first moved here 12 years ago, but have you seen the development lately?? McConnell Road is turning into a sea of cookie cutter houses and my stomach hurts every time they trash one of those beautiful old trees. Why can't they build around them? My husband says it's because they don't want anything blocking their marketing signs. You'd think that the trees would be such a selling point, though. If you haven't seen Woodstock in a while I think you'll be a little misty at the changes. laura kringlemom@... wrote: how strange!! i was born in woodstock!!! i used to shop for jewlery all the time in black market minerals!! especially since i am allergic to nickel!! i tru very hard to stay away from gurnee mills. too many people!!! kathy in il Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 Milwaukee is great!! It is easier for us to use your airport where we are than Chicago's. We love Ed Debevik's (sp???). It's a restaurant where they pretend it's the 50's and the waiters are sassy and they dance on the counters. Chicago has one too, but it's a dump. Phew! My husband is going to the store for ice. He started feeling guilty because he knows it was his fault I had a horrible time with the stupid turkey. I wanted to get smoked turkey and just a regular turkey breast, but he wanted a cheaper traditional turkey. When I told him I would have a hard time with it, he starts saying the family will help and was guilting me out like I can't depend on them blah blah, but of course the fact is he is totally helpless in the kitchen. I'm trying to explain about micro-organisms that can grow in turkey juice that gets splattered and I was right that it wouldn't thawed and I was right about everything which makes him really mad, so I had to just take over and DO it. And it hurt. But then he starts feeling guilty and that's even more annoying that when he's being a jerk almost. He starts trying to be nice and staring at me a lot. When I'm mad at someone I just want them to leave me alone, but he gets over things within minutes and is totally in my face. Sorry I'm writing so much today. Just ignore me. laura Lyon <lindsaylyon@...> wrote: Hey! You guys are pretty close to me too! I live in Milwaukee. We just got snow last night, I'm sure you did too. BLAH! p.s.
