1. I can't believe Skootz is braving that cold, even for fun!! Yikes! Hope OMP has fun and will bring back a joke or two. 2. Good luck to Wappy's dh with that possible contract and good luck to Karen (holding hands with landi) with respect to clinching that job! Congrats to Griffin for being a great competitor and for being so brave in front of an auditorium full of people. That alone would have scared the socks off a lot of kids! 3. Been missing Jbean lately. Glad you posted, hon! Behave yourself in Texas, hear? Nah, don't. Better pictures will result! 4. Cyberdd, Kaykay, that job is just causing you too much pain, sweetheart. I am so sorry. I sure wish I could go in there and rattle some heads! 5. Hi, Eggie! I was very sorry to read about the recent loss in your family, hon. Rainy days and head colds are like a double whammy, huh? Bet something wonderful happens at work today to remind you that dragging your bod in today was worthwhile. 5a. Forgot to take my Effexor last night, and, as a result, had a terrible foggy, foggy morning til the meds kicked in. Canceled my hair appt but rescheduled for tomorrow. Might as well make this a good lazy day all the way through!

1. In Nov. of 2002 I cut my long hair to about an inch long all over. Being a FL girl it never even occurred to me NOT to cut my hair off in Nov. in Buffalo. 2. I had to wear a hat constantly cause my head was always cold! 3. Now, finally, its long enough to pull back into a ponytail! YAAAAAA! 4. For the TX meet I'm doing something I haven't done in years. Painting my finger and toe nails. I've even let my nails grow out some since i usually keep them short so i can type faster. 5. Someday I hope to have a real manicure and pedicure. A massage would be great too! TGIF!

1. Woo hoo Grif! He did an awesome job, Hippy. I'm so proud of him! 2. Eggie, I sent Caleb to school today with a head cold too. He looked terribly, sounded bad, but was feeling decent enough to go for half a day. I always feel like such a bad mommy sending them when they don't feel so great, but I can't keep them home all the time either. 3. Rain sucks. So does wind. We went out Wednesday night and restapled the plastic sheeting down since the wind had lifted it up in places. 4. Bad wind again last night. Starts raining today, I've got a drip in Kota's room. Really isn't too serious, in three hours the pan has collected maybe an 1/8th of a teaspoon of water. But, now it's also dripping in the kitchen and the living room. Again, neither of those too bad (the kitchen one leaked before I found it, I was able to clean it up with A paper towel, lol.) 5. Went out and bought more plastic sheeting. Darren's going to be having fun today. 6. Nieces are supposed to be here in a few minutes. I tried to get mom to take the baby so I didn't have to worry about taking her out in the rain or keeping her out of the drip pots, but mom's busy and since sis has plans to go out to lunch with some girlfriends for her birthday, I'm not going to spoil her plans. Just going to have to find something to keep the baby interested for awhile, lol.

1. War, I was wondering if you were getting hit by the rain. We've had some, but nothing like before. More on the way today and then it's supposed to clear up! 2. I love reading Jbean's facts! Reminds me so much of my single years and living alone. You'll look back and 'say' you loved them!! 3. Our groomer is moving back to Vegas next week!! Whoohoo!! 4. After spending the last 10 months in W. Palm Beach, FL, she thinks 115 degree weather in the summer is GREAT! 5. Thekid bought her ticket to England yesterday. She's flying Virgin...10 hours, non-stop the end of May. whoohoo!! 6. Thekid really wants Cami before she's all grown up, so she asked our breeder if she could have her here. We are getting her either the third week of Feb or the 8th of March<depending if our breeder goes to the Scottsdale Dog Show>. Cami is going to rack up FFMs going back and forth to Indy over the next few years! LOL They worked out a 'sort-of' schedule for Cami. She'll fly back for three or four big shows there, and we'll show her around here when we can. All in all, I think this works out much better. Plus, she'll be all adjusted by the time Simon arrives around the first of Sept. 7. Wow! Wondering 'what's happening' in Texas this next weekend??? Only a week to go!! WHOOHOO!! 6.1 Whoohoo and CONGRATS, Karen!!! AWESOME!!

1. Yep we had it Kstme. This storm had nothing on the last one! There were times it rained really hard, but it didn't last too long. The leaks weren't bad at all, just drip drip stuff, not much else. 2. Darren got the plastic up and stapled down, so haven't had anymore dripping since earlier today. 3. Nieces came over and we had fun. My oldest niece decorated the cake for her mommy's birthday and made a card for her. Youngest one got into everything she could, LOL. She went without her afternoon nap so was feeling a bit mischevious. 4. Took them home about 3. Walk into sis' house, she's sitting t the table bawling. I ask whats wrong, she sobs a few times, then gets up and runs over and clings to me. Took her a few minutes to blurt out what had her so upset (I knew it wasn't too serious since she had a house full of people and no one else was upset, lol.) 5. She was finally able to spit out that she had just realized she was going to be 30...in 364 and a half days. She's a wee bit on the nutty side sometimes, lol. 6. Talking with middle bro and his gf, I realized their little one (who's 20 months old and I hardly ever get to see) needs to come visit more often and they realized I'm still at home and bored during the days when the kids are in school. Finally, she told me they were looking for a babysitter and asked if I'd be interested. 7. Uhm, heck yeah I'm interested. Out of all my nieces and nephews this is the one I see the least, and I'm always telling them to drop her off to visit, lol. With the kids in school all day, and me home most the time, I miss having a little one around, which is why I pick my other two nieces up so often (well that, and because I enjoy spending time with them.) Something like this would be perfect for me, and for them. It's not a full time thing, they don't want to have non family watching her, and it gives me the chance to play with the baby. Works out pretty good for all of us!

1. Happy Weekend all Factoiders! 2. Spent last evening with a friend and her family at their camp inside the Atchafalaya Basin. 3. I didn't follow the directions correctly and ended up going up on the levee too soon. So now, I have about 3 tons of mud on the underside of my car. 4. Guess who will be having their car washed today? 5. Friend above now lives in New York. She's home this week because her father passed away. We were friends in high school and I spent a lot of time at their house. We reminisced about the old days last night. I have such fond memories of her parents. 6. My son just woke up and said what's for breakfast? After I told him all the choices that we have in the house, he said "Would you go get me some donuts?" 7. I told him no, he has his license and a vehicle and can go get it himself. LOL! I'm going to like this. 8. I need to clean my house, get laundry done and start packing for the Texas meet next weekend. Woohoo!

1. i got the faucet fixed yesterday! yay! i heard the maintenance guy in there cussing. he had to leave about four times because he didn't have the right parts, or they still wouldn't work, etc. i felt bad for him. 2. the cat is in freak mode this morning. running around and knocking shit off the tables, etc. i don't know why she has to be a morning person, since i am NOT, by ANY means. 3. i am going to a nice restaurant tonight with alterego. i got a gift certificate for there for my b-day and haven't used it yet. it's such a nice restuarant that it's where brad and jen (so sad they aren't together anymore. ) would eat when they were in town. it'called bijans. i guess jen won't be going there anymore. we'll still take brad, though. 3. by the way, you guys do know that brad pitt is from here, where i live, right? his family still lives here. i have met his brother through work. he's not hot like brad, though. he owns his own computer service business, his name is doug. 4. i will be going to the gym to work out, so i can eat more tonight, just as soon as this sinus headache subsides. i hate having allergies. 5. i have been buying way too much stuff off of ebay. the latest things have been keith urban stuff. 2 italian charms, a t-shirt, and a mouse pad. the mouse pad is for alterego, since i don't have a puter. i know she will like it. she is almost as obsessed as i am. 6. my apartment is clean. i wishi were more of a clean nut, but i have always been a slob. i need to work on that! 7. we got snow last night! only a little. it is pretty. (only because it wasn't enough to cause problems!) 8. gonna go to the gym now. wish me luck! lol 9. eta, ddr beat me. i need to get started on the texas packing/prep. too. my car needs an oil change. HAPPY SATURDAY!

1. I haven't been here in weeks. The wedding plans and work have been keeping me snowed under. 2. Speaking of snow, we got about 3 inches yesterday. Luckily, the roads are not really bad and it is supposed to get above freezing today. 3. Unfortunately, all the ice that hit the southeast overnight and this morning is delaying my wedding planner's plane. He is flying in from Florida (he has been working the hurricane damage for my brother's company). 4. I am anxious for him to get here because we have so much left to do and really only through Tuesday to get it done. 5. On Wednesday, we all leave for Texas because Flyboy and I have to get our marriage license by 4pm. 6. Today, about 1, we have several family members coming over to help with stuff. We have wedding programs to print and fold, ribbons to tie around the bubbles, and pictures to wrap as gifts for out of town family members. 7. We picked up a case of beer and a bucket of margaritas last night and I am putting on a roast in about 10 minutes. That ought to be enough thanks to our helpers, right? 8. Still left to do are the big centerpieces, though that is the project for the wedding planner to head when he gets here. We also have to purchase toasting glasses still. It has been tough to find some we like. 9. There are some other projects, too, but if I start to list them, I get overwhelmed. That is not even including what I have to do at work to be able to leave! 10. One more week!!!!!

1. I am addicted to cheap, grocery store carrot cake. I eat it out of the pan, with a huge glass of milk. Many time, instead of dinner. I eat one every two days. I am home this weekend, so last night, I bought two.

1. I love Saturday mornings ... my son and nephew watch cartoons until noon and I start the chores at my own pace. No rush on Saturdays! 2. I'm going to my first ScrapBooking Crop this afternoon. I'm not very crafty but my friend is giving the event so I'm going to support her. And it'll be fun to see what other people are doing!

1. YAY Spy!! I can't wait! 2. I went to tan this morning but it doesn't seem to be working very well. Maybe because I have to go out in the bitter cold right after. Blue is not the look I was going for! 3. I'm doing laundry, packing and going to work on some jewelry today. I want to have some nice new stuff to show the gallery owner. YAY!

1. Spy, what is a bucket of margaritas? 2. I had my blood work done today related to my physical and upcoming elbow surgery. 3. Can't wait to get the surgery. My left arm has become almost useless at this point. 4. Just got back from taking Herc for a spin--the sun is shining, there is no wind, and the temp is 27 but feels so good. No more 4 degree weather for a change! 5. I head out in an hour to get my hair cut and colored. Yay! 6. Ed is taking my Comcast TV remote back (we each have one--for our separate TVs) and getting me another. A spring came loose that holds the batteries in place inside and though I have jury-rigged it, the darned thing has been troublesome since we got it. Finally gave up the ghost this morning. To think I used to get up and down to change channels!!!

6.6 Thanks, Texannnie! I loooove frozen margaritas. Sounds like a plan! So if any of you attending Spy's wedding notice wedding programs folded in fanciful shapes or ribbons somehow tucked inside bubbles (huh?), you'll know to blame it on the margaritas (not the bossanova)! (If you don't 'get' that, you are lucky enough to be YOUNG! Man I am old.)
