1. first day back to work from having 5 days off. nothing bad happened, and i wasn't behind, so that's good.

2. it was oldies radio station at work today. that i wasn't too thrilled with. every freakin' monday and friday. blech!

3. i'm excited that kelly clarkson's new cd comes out tomorrow. it is about time!

4. my friend called me yesterday and asked me (hypothetically, of course) if she HAPPENED to be christmas shopping, for one person in particular, what size would that person wear. lol. subtle, very subtle, lol.

5. there is a new store in the mall called G&G Rave. i bought a velour jogging suit for only $19.99 there. the jacket is a little shorter than i would like for it to be, but that was a really good deal.

6. i slept really badly last night, and even had a nightmare. that sucked. of course sleeping past 9am for the last 5 days didn't help matters either.

7. i am almost done christmas shopping! i love that, i think i have like 4 more small gifts to get. the big ones are all out of the way.

8. i am sorry for spy, jewels, and any other factoiders who are sick. hope everyone is feeling better soon.

1. Eggie, we had the horrible wind all weekend. Kids toys were blowing across the back patio like they were nothing.

2. No wind today, though it is freezing. I think the high for today (and I was out from 1 til about 230 and never felt it get this high) was 50. Tonight it's 15. Hehe, once I got home I turned the heater on, wrapped up in a blanket and refused to leave it. Darren of course, thinks I'm insane.

3. I got a ton of stuff done today. First I cleaned the carpets while he took the curtains out of the dryer and hung them back up. Then I started on the rest of the house. After the third time of telling Darren not to worry about one thing or another, I sent him to play golf. Any other day I'd have appreciated the help but today I had it in my head exactly how and what to clean and he just kept getting ahead of me.

4. Finally got all the housework done by about 11:30. He decided after golfing to go shopping so was gone about 2 hours.

5. After a quick shower we headed towards the mall. Didn't buy anything, didn't plan to buy anything, I just wanted out of the house to look.

6. Mil called to see if Darren would go shopping with her and her new husband. They were shopping for a new big screen TV and needed help getting it out of the truck and in the house.

7. While he was gone I got the kids to painting little plastic "stained glass" ornaments. I set to work putting out my little Christmas village and my 1/2 of a nativity sets. Spent alot of time arranging them perfectely (or so I thought!) Wasn't 20 minutes later Kota had rearranged them yet again and was performing a marriage ceremony for two of the wise men. She was so cute pronouncing them husband and wife til she started smacking them together and making kissey noises. I sat cringing, the poor baby Jesus figure was lost last year, when I pulled Mary out of the box tonight she was broken in two, and here I had visions of no baby Jesus, no Mary, and a headless wiseman or two.

8. We never did get the tree up and decorate it, though the rest of the inside of the house is done. Still have the outside of the house to do too.

9. SS, I've got giggles over you finding the decs so high up you couldn't reach them, lol.

9.5 To all of you who are sick...ACK! I'm sorry you guys are feeling so bad and hope that ya'll get well soon!

1. Ack! 10 facts!!!
2. I guess I got rid of one by just saying "Ack! 10 facts!
3. It's cold and dismal here today, but the christmas decorations I put up this weekend add some cheer to the day!
4. I've noticed that I put exclamations at the end of almost every sentence!! That is a bad habit! It looks like I'm manic or something!!!
5. I'm going shopping today with a friend. I have most of my main shopping done, so it's just some odds and ends.
6. Guess what most of the women I know are getting for Christmas?
7. YUP! Handmade jewelry!! LOL! Hope they don't mind.
8. I don't have a Christmas list this year. I have everything I want.
9. I have a "pumpkin" mask on this morning from Bath and Body works. It smells just like pumpkin pie! YUM!!
10. Whew! That wasn't so hard.

1. I haven't had to do one fact in ages, so I'll make it a good one. I just wanted to let you all know that I'm obsessed with orange TicTacs. I'm eating a handful right now.

1. It's 34 degrees here and raining, yuk. There is a 50% chance of rain all day and there is going to be a freeze warning tonight. It won't be any fun trying to get around tomorrow morning.

2. I thought I left Chicago to get away from this, LOL. Well, I have my hot chocolate, flannel jammies and crocheted afghan to keep me cozy while I watch my shows tonight

1. I don't know whether I will be decorating the house for Christmas or not. It just seems like a lot of work. The beginning of December is so busy with extra concerts and finals, etc. Just call me a grinch!

2. I'm about one third of the way finished with my journal article. It will take a little longer to get the facts checked and footnotes in. I think I will get it done today. WHEW!

3. It is RAINING here (again) All day today....all day yesterday....are we taking bets on all day tomorrow?

4. Going to have a post-LASIK follow up in 30 minutes and Terminex is coming after that. If it weren't for that....well....I would just be working here in my jammies. I LOVE working in my jammies!

1. i left for the storage place at 7am today
2. when i got there, the lock WAS missing.
3. I opened the door to see if anything was taken... relief... everything is still intact!
4. Went to Home Depot and got a new lock and put it on the unit.
5. still cant figure out how my lock just vanished like that, or how nothing inside was touched - though its strange that the unit next to me had the same looking lock the last time i visited my unit and that lock is also no longer there - shouldnt matter with different keys but it is a bit strange.

5. My Christmas Decorations are STILL in boxes in the living room.

1. Ophiliasgrandma, welcome to the factoid haven!

2. I am sorry so many of you are sick and send healing thoughts

3. My life has been topsy turvy for over two months

4. I haven't even made a list, let alone checked it once or twice or started shopping from it

5. I cleaned like a 'Wargod' yesterday and there wasn't one thing left to clean that I could think of

6. Someone walked on my clean kitchen floor with dirty feet today

7. I baked another pumpkin pie and a coconut cream pie with merangue today

8. That means I've made six pies from scratch in less than a week including the pumpkin and pecan pies I made for Thanksgiving

9. I watched the Stepford Wives newest remake and it was not worth the time

10. It's nice to see Denecee, Goddessatlaw and Nickovtyme in the factoids thread

1. I missed having time for TVCH. Trying to get caught up a little tonight.

2. For the first time in three years, thanks to DS, my tree is up and decorated. Wreaths and etc are up, stockings are hung.

3. Outdoor lights and window decorations are up.

4. Got out the Christmas CD's and put a few in the car, too. Love Mannheim Steamroller.

5. Have 2 gifts purchased - long way to go to get the rest of the Christmas shopping done.

6. Got my eyes checked today. Distance vision is improved, but reading that small print is getting harder. Uh oh!

7. My fur baby, Chloe, got a check up today. She's doing well for a 10 year old Lab. Got her rabies vaccine so I can renew her license (got to keep her legal).

8. Had a nice Thanksgiving weekend, but didn't get any of the work done that I had planned.

9. Have to do better about getting the work done since I picked up another new client today.

10. It's time for Amazing Race, so I'll say goodnight for now.

ETA Urgrace beat me to ten. Sorry schticklers!!

Yea..only 1

1. It is Wednesday morning...going to Sams club today and returning a gift I don't need at Wal-mart (hopefully before the crowds) I cannot believe how busy the stores are and it is just now December. Then at 1pm today a guy is coming to clean our duct work. It has never been done and hoping that this will give me the relief that my eyes need. They are tolerable, but I still look really tired or 3 sheets to the wind :-)

Morning Citrus! Morning Skootz!!
1. I went to a jewelry party last night with my mom. I've never been to one and didn't know what to expect. I mostly went to see how a party like that would be done. It was really interesting!
2. I was placing a small order and the gal that was in charge noticed the necklace I was wearing. She told me how beautiful it was. I told her I make them and she said, I want to come work for YOU!! Then the other women were Ooohing and Ahhhing. I was really kind of embarrassed because I didn't want to take away the thunder from the gal selling the jewelry (it's a jewelry company that's a division of Lady Remington) but it also felt really good!!

1. Returned the defective string of lights in a three string package. Two strings already on the tree...no way we're taking them off...it was no problem. Phew! Otherwise, we had planned to buy another package, take out a good string, replace with bad string, and take the entire package back with an explanation, of course.

2. Church decided to toss out gnarly decorations and purchase fresh new ones that will better match the decor. Sis went on that shopping trip...$200 later and things are looking very nice. The $200 was a donation from the pastor's wife who was sick of looking at the ratty stuff for all these years.

3. I love to hear how others are doing with their businesses and hobbies. It inspires me to try something new myself. You go, RG!

1. My students are watching a great weather video on clouds today. After the video they will be coloring the 4 main types of clouds. It's amazing how much 8th graders love to do art projects.

2. I've been SO hungry lately. I have 3 hours until lunch. I don't know if I can hold out that long.

3. I plan on finishing my Christmas shopping this weekend. I don't want to deal with all of the last minute madness.

4. Have a great day everyone :-)

1. It so darn windy here today! I think 20-30 mph wind gusts according to Weatherbug.

2. Thank goodness I didn't put my wreaths or swags up outside...I'd probably be chasing them around the neighborhood right about now.

3. Steve will be gone all next week (again!) for work. This time he'll be in Kentucky. He was trying to get a flight home Thursday night so he'd have Friday off to spend some time with me, but no go.

4. We still haven't put up the darn tree! It was supposed to get put up yesterday when Steve got home from work, but we got a little sidetracked - the new Harry Potter movie we rented was due back today, so we had to watch it.

5. It is definitely getting put up tonight! We're having a very quick dinner, then it's straight to work...have to get done before Lost comes on!

6. We're heading out Christmas shopping again on Saturday. My parents are going with us and they have gift cards to Lonestar Steakhouse that they must use so we'll get a free dinner. Yippee!!

7. I'm baking a cake right now and it smells soooo yummy! Can't wait to eat it!

7.1 Hope everyone at TVCH that is sick feels better very, very soon!

1. Today is my grandson's birthday.

2. He is thirteen.

3. I could have sworn he just turned 10 last year.

4. I don't how my daughter is old enough to have a son that is 13...wasn't she just 21 a couple of years ago?

5. I used to give my grandson a Harry Potter book every year on his birthday.

6. I have no idea what to get him this year.

7. I think maybe I will get him a book having something to do with science...he likes science.

8. I was told him that he was my favorite little boy in the whole world...then he figured that he was my only little boy. He is a smart one! But I still tell him that...cuz he is!
