Hey Liz - Me again, people are going to think we have something going on that I've been chosen three times. I'm blushing... Thanks for recognizing me for another in My Everything Texas Series. We live in such a great state and have so much to offer; that's why you guys and gals keep selling those houses in what everyone calls "a bad economy".  My home inspection business has not faultered so I know we in Texas have our act together. Thanks again, Carl

Congratulations to all the AR's above that were also recognized. Great information representing Our Great State of Texas.

Looking forward to meeting some of you April 12th over in Bandera at the AR Gathering.

Carl

Hey Carl,you weren't supposed to tell!!!  Now they all know, yikes.  There is just something about you I can't resist...maybe all the cool stuff you write about Texas (my family home since 1800's), or your name, (my Daddy's name was Carl), maybe it's that cute photo of you?  Oh well now the cats outta the bag, and everyone knows you're a very special guy to me...ohooooooooo.  Liz

Don't tell the wife :), hope to make it to the BBQ to meet both of you, and all the rest of the great group on Texas Real Estate.  L

Hi Liz! I am back at work and see you are busy as ever!  You have some great posts up there.  For the mascot - he looks pretty scary to me - I suggest either "Horny" or "Texas Tough Guy".

HeyAnnie Oakley,your back...yea!  Hope you sold four homes while MIA from AR :).  You can't vote, if your not a member of the group...so you gotta join and write stuff about the great state of Texas :)  Liz

Liz -All I know about Texas I learned from you- Everything is Texas - sized. Can I join as a Texas/Liz Fan?

What is a blue bonnet?  Are you selling margarine now?

Virginia, oh dear you really need help!  A blue bonnet is our state of Texas flower!  You didn't learn that in history class?  Oh I forgot Texas is the only state that gives as much history about our state as it does the US :)...we're special...don't you know!  Here is a picture for you my friend.Texas highways are planted in blue bonnets and wild flowers for miles and miles, really a beautiful time in Texas.

Liz - Thanks so much for including me in your collection this time around.  I missed this one earlier, since you posted it in the middle of the night.  Get some sleep, my friend!

Hey Liz & Marchel, Thanks for including my post in The Top Ten Roundup.  Second one for me -- I'm feeling special! :)

Oh, Liz, you trying to steal my fella -- Carl???   Don't be doin' that now, ya hear!!! 

Liz.. You are doing a great job here in the rain. I'm sure these AR members are excited that you have reconised them as well.

Hi Jason, that's a damn good ideal...think I'll do that right after-------:).  Seriously I've got to stop this staying up till 4 on AR every night.  It's a habit I need to break, any ideals?  Go #1 Jason!  Liz

Hey Judi, you are special, and you can keep Carl, Mr. PI can't keep a secret :).  Liz

Hi Roland, well thank you sir, that's very nice of you to say.  I haven't seen your name on the vote for our mascot, go get over there and vote.  Liz

Liz, you're giving him up so quickly and easily?!   I guess I'll let his wife, Ceil, keep him -- she's a pretty special lady!   :)   I'll just keep as a good friend!!  LOL

Oh Oh, I've been caught. Now Liz and Judi have been fighting over me, guess I'll haved to bring two bags of M&M's.

HAHA Carl, yeah, Liz & I were fighting over you and you didn't even know it!!!  I won -- but I'll pass you back to your lovely wife!!!   ROFL

OK guess if Judi says so we are both giving you back to Ceil, but I'm hanging onto you as a friend too.  It was nice talking to you Carl and Ceil both today, hope you get the hang of posting the church into the contest.  Looking forward to seeing your pictures.  Oh yea and you better bring two bags of M&M's :).  Liz

OK Liz - Look Up....you need to fix my pic. Also sent you an email.

Hey Liz!!!   What's this!!??!!   Why is Carl's picture larger than everyone else's!!!???   You playing favorites!!!   :)    ROFL

My dear friends Carl & Judi, running a group takes a lot of time.  It took me to 4 AM to get this done, and Marchel noticed I had messed up and put Carl's first post instead of the Honey Bee one.  This happened because AR is not real friendly about trying to keep one on featured without it rolling into the "More Featured" part at the top, so I had to finely un post the L & M contest one, then repost it to get it back at the top of the group home page.  In the process I inadvertently un stared several of the blogs in the "More" section.

So long story short (hard for me :), if either of you want to fix Carl's picture to make it the same size as the rest, be my guest!

I still have not got my church post written, guess I'll be up till 4 again tonight on that...oh the woes of being in charge.  Carl I did not get an e-mail?  Judi what does the ROFL mean?

Kisses, Liz

My Dear friends Judi and Carl, I did get your e-mail Carl, and I have asked Marchel to fix my mess up on the Top Ten and make all pictures bigger.  If she does not have time, I will do it tomorrow, OK?  Sorry, Liz

Judi - So glad I'm the only one that doesn't know what ROFL means. I didn't want to ask because it would make me feel like a dunce. There are also some other things you do, I'm sure they mean something, but I don't know. Boy this Lesson 101 is getting tough.

I don't know how to fix the big picture of me etc. If you know how feel free.

Oh! Spurs just won. Yeee Haw! 97 Spurs, Clippers 88.

ROFL means  Rolling on Floor Laughing -- you'll also see this ROFLMAO -- that means Rolling on Floor Laughing My A$$ Off!   Carl, what else do I do that you don't know?    my smiley face --  :)  or my sad face    :(           IMO is  In My Opinion     IMHO   is   In My Humble Opinion   

Enough of Blogging 101 for tonight -- it's late and I'm tired and I have had and am having a very busy week and next week is no different.  Gotta get sleep -- 2 new listings, 1 new buyer, plus another buyer coming in town this weekend.  Plus the TX AR Gathering, a dinner for another group I'm in -- I'm the hostess this time and we need a restaurant to meet at and announcements to go out!!!  Carl, I have a new listing in New Braunfels.  I'll be up there regularly until we get it sold. 

YEAH  SPURS!!!!

Judy - my brain may not remember all this ROFL, ROFLMAO, IMO unless I use it, so will try to remember. I only just figured out OMG. I'm slow. Oh! what does it mean when you put funny lilttle something or other at the end of a word?  I think you did that on Texas Independence blog.

So glad your are doing good; your hard work will pay off but you need to get to bed earlier. Liz too.

Onlly one inspection today, havea doctor appointment.

Well we just learn something everyday.  ROFLMAO...picturing Judi doing this makes me ROFLMAO :)

Don't know why Carl you want your picture smaller, it looks fine this way, IMHO, but I will change now. 

We have the TEBB, and the TLNB here...that would be, The Early Bird Blogers and The Late Night Blogers, L

ooohhhh, Liz, I like the TEBB and TLNB  -- that's pretty cool!!! 

The Early Bird Bloggers and The Late Night Bloggers.  I'm ROFLMAO!!!!   

Oh, Carl, LOL means    "laughing on line".   LOL

I'm not sure which little something or other I put at the end of a word???   I went back and looked but I'm not sure which one.   :) is smilling,  :( is sad or frowning,  :))  I'm smiling really big (at least that's what i use it for).  :)   

Liz, am I an TEBB or a TLNB -- sometimes one runs into the other!!!  

Judi, Judi, Judi...I just nicknamed Allen MC (Milk Chocolate) :), be sure to use it next time :) :) LOL

We need to come up with an inital nickname for Carl and make him guess what it is, ROTFLMAO...any ideas?  Liz

OK Ladies, U-R getting ahead of yourself here with all this ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ stuff. I'll never remember it all.

How about---PI - Privatge Iye for my nickname? As if I had some say so, show some respect ladies to this elder gent.

Carl, my friend...we intend to show all the respect in the world...trust us :).  L

Respect???   Hmmm, I'll consider it -- if you bring those M & M's. . .  

My friends I am really a TRLNB...ok WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?  An IQ test?  L

Damn computer

I got it, Carl is the RI....another IQ test?  L

Liz,  Which Allen did you nickname Milk Chocolate (MC)???

RI........I'm thinking......humhumhum....Real Estate Inspector????? Darn these women always scheming; a man just don't have a chance. Even talking about Hi-Jacking somebody at Bandera Pass. Don't they have anything better to do. Liz and Judi is the worst. I'm going to have to leave and go hang out with the other HI's. I bet they won't even miss me.

Carl, what do you mean Liz and Judi are the worst???  You know I'm sweet and innocent.  I don't scheme.   Ricki was talking about Ambushing me at Bandera Pass!!!  I then, changed it to Alan being ambushed at Bandera Pass because he was misbehaving (as usual).  Seems like Liz could get me in trouble too. 

Ok, I'm going back to work.  Got that listing in New Braunfels today.  i'll be going up to New Braunfels a lot until we get that property sold.

Judi,my partner in nickname, and letter meanings :), Allen K. with Jason's friend and works in his office in Austin too, the M & M thing...got it?  And don't tell Carl but th RI is for respected inspector :).  Of course after his "crimes...see L&M's contest", we might have to rethink that one???

Little Devils                                              Lady Bugs                   Dynamic Duos

Better watch it Ms. Judi, New Braunfels grows on you. Maybe you need to sell and move to Comal county. You won't hae to fight the 1604 traffic. Just sell in N.B., Wimberly, Bulverde, Canyon Lake, Seguin area. Of course, Don will have a long drive to Toyota. Many of he inspections have been people moving to this area from out-of-state; therefore should sell quickly. Further north, other side of N.B. they are building a whole comples of outlet stores and I heard another hospital.

Oh thanks - I thought LOL meant Lots of Luck and Laugh Out Loud.

Oh No - Liz is looking for another Logo for something???? I like the little devil stirring the pot. He has character.

Oh yeah, I definitely know Alan K.  --  he's another trouble maker with a capital T!   The devil stirring the pot would fit Mr. MC and Mr. RI.   hehehehehehe   

For us, either the dynamic duo or lady bugs. 

Judi, only problem with the lady bugs, which fits us very well, being that we are ladies, and cute + red is a power color, so that's 3 for the LB's...I'll keep thinking on that.

Carl, after your latest crimes I am considering taking back the RI...Respecter Inspector, kinda catchy though.  I'm still looking for the proper punishment and will put it on the L&M post, so don't sweat too much, but it's gonna be bad :)  LB's, for now!

                                                                                                  How do you feel about snakes?

OHHHH, Miss Liz,  I don't know how Carl feels about snakes but I'm deathly afraid of them!!!!   I won't be helping you with that punishment!!!!    EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

OK Ladies now you've gone and done it...I am going to bring a box full of sneaky snakes to the AR Gathering. Give a women enough rope and she'll hang herself everytime. Here I though Judi wasn't afraid of anything. Where's Alan tonite, how come you are ganging up on me? I'm about whooped...so I think I'll say...Besides, either my computer is worn out or my DSL is moving slow but it is taking forever to bring up and change pages.

Gnite

Hi Liz:

Great post. I sneeked in and found out what my nickname means. I am proud to wear the tag. Just call me Milk Chocolate.

Hey Judi, don't worry, I have LOTS of other things to throw out there :).

Carl,you just sleet really nice and sound tonight...as my Daddy always said, "Sleep tight and don't let the bed bugs bite"...guess in this case it should be changed to lady bugs bite :).

MC, I've been hoping you come by and help poor Carl out, he is just lost with us gaging up on him:).  Nope we gotta keep MC. so it will be our little secret unless RI blabs about it to everyone!  You should check out the stuff he stirred up on the L & M contest post...he started it!

I had drinks served up for us over there, but I can't make it any longer, I finely took a pill and going to bed.  I talked about it over there so don't what to go into it again but my poor Thor died this afternoon.  She was my love, and 20 years old, the bad thing was I wasn't there to be with her at the end, but they held up the phone so I go to talk to her.  Night all, L

I put a couple of pictures up of Thor on a comment I made on here if you want to see my baby, she used to be such a beatutiful solid black cat, but she has not been feeling well for almost a year now.  These were taken last week.

The Prettiest "Old Church in Texas...First Baptist Church in Katy, Texas

Liz - Hope you rested well. I went over to visit Thor at the other blog site. Thor will always be a wonderful memory for you. Memories are forever.

They took the burn ban off so I better get started. Been trimming trees and have lots to burn. Nice that we live in the country. Just been dumping everything in the tank. No water in the tank since we haven't had enough rain to hold water.

Have a good day.

Carl

Hey - thanks again for picking my little ole blog for the Top 10 Texas - that is so great and one day after my b-day - how great is that???????!!!!!

Thanks again-

Hey Carl,yes I love it, Bill trimmed all the vines out of the trees by the road, so I'm burning too :).  We have 3 1/2 acres, but there is hardly anyone around, so it feels like 10 times that.  Got to go home Wed., and it's going to be hard not seeing Thor there.  I will be writing the post about all the winners of the contest tonight, I'm sorry yours did not get picked, it was very good.  Good luck on the next one.  Liz

Liz - Really truly appreciate all the extra work you and Marchel do to promote the site. There is strengths in numbers ;when we work together we can promote Texas and have fun while we do it.
