right now, i want to say grrrrrrrrrrrr, too.
i finally found a number for where i ordered son's pants and the pants are on back order for at least 2 weeks. they could have let me know...
i did call them back and ask if they had any 33W 32L, as i had ordered him the 34W 32L and my son is very slender and 34's are pretty loose on his waist. they have one pair of the 33 waist and will send them out now. he can wait for another pair down the line, either 33 or 34.
i am just irritated because it would be good customer service to respond to emails and also to let people know when something is on back order. when i ordered online a week back, the webpage said they were in stock and would ship in 2 business days....
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
okay, i feel a little better now. well, that growl and a nathan's hot dog both helped!

Right now I'm wondering how Tabby's neighbors have decorated their yard for Christmas. I'm also wondering whether the Virgin Mary has a date for the holidays this year.

Right now, I've been wondering if Tabby still had the same neighbors and if they had decorated yet, too, lol! They're famous!!...or infamous?

LOL Hippy.

Right now I love seeing people with the holiday spirit! I had to run to Walmart to pick up some cold meds and the salvation army guy was out front. This man was having the best time, singing and dancing, the whole sidewalk was his stage and he was really working it for his audience. Ok, he didn't really have an audience, just people going in and out of the store, lol, but he was having a blast. When I left he was using his bell as a drum stick and beating on the collection bucket, rapping Jingle Bells. I didn't really want to be there, but at least he put a smile on my face as I fought my way to the cold medicine aisle past hundreds of disgruntled holiday shoppers, lol.

right now, it's foggy as all get out here. i can't even see the neighbor's house. usually she puts garland all over everything with no rhyme or reason. it might go across her railing, through a tree, down to the cement block fence, across the high chair with the stuffed bear, across the driveway, through the virgin mary's left nostril, etc. she hangs it about 4 feet off the ground so her husband just about gets decapitated every time he walks out front.

Right now I am beyond tired. I just bought a 77 corvette to restore. Hubby is helping but I am doing the interior myself. In the last two days I have ripped out carpet, seats, molding, console,doors, headliner, t-tops, dash, you name it. The car is white with red interior. I am changing everything to buckskin. I have completely recovered one seat and working on the other right now. When I finish it will have all buckskin leather interior, buckskin color trim and will be painted mother of pearl on the outside.
My hands are killing me they are so sore.

So far we have put on new mufflers, loud, 4 new tires with the most beautiful wheels, rebuilt rear and front end. We have rebuilt carburator,and put in new radiator. I only paid 3k for the car and the motor and transmission are in great shape. Hubby has a 52 chevy street rod pickup and now I will have my own classic to drive to the car shows.

Right now I think as soon as the fog clears, Tabby should snap some pics and post them here so all the new TVCHers can appreciate how BEAUTIFUL her neighbor's yard is. Words alone can not describe it.

And also right now, I think Kristy is very ambitious taking all that work on. We had a '67 Mustang that we had hoped to restore one day, but after having it sit in Steve's parent's garage for two years without nothing being done to it, we decided it would be best to sell it. Our lives are just to busy right now, but one day we'll make it happen. Might not be until we're both old and grey, but it'll happen!

right now, we had a '77 corvette (when i was pg, i couldn't figure out how to unlock the steering wheel after my husband had been in it and i couldn't get my tummy inside!! i had to call the doctor's office to cancel, but fortunately, the doc had the same car and told me how to move/adjust the tilt wheel!)
we also had a '67 mustang with a 289 engine punched out/souped up to 305. lookng back, we could have probably sold the engine for what we sold the whole car for!
i remember putting my son into his carseat and sliding my 8-month pregnant body into the mustang. forgetting i wasn't driving my toyota pick-up, i floored it and left rubber for about a hundred yards--in front of my old high school boyfriend, who was visiting his dad, who just happened to have moved next door to my dad...and here it was 20 years after my freshman crush! what a picture of the caring mother and pregnant wife...i'm sure perry thought i was just showing off. i think i hit mach 1 in about 10 seconds. since every little movement gave me morning sickness, i had to pull over and throw up once i got down the street. which really added to the dramatic exit i made. LOL

Right now I just heard on the news that the mountain cedar spores are heading this way in some strong winds from the north. Grrrrrrr <cough cough>

Right now I just got an email from my professor. My test did get submitted, his link was wrong, so all's cool. I am now completely done with my class and unless I totally bombed this test (I don't think so, lol) and did decent on my final project, I probably have an A.

I've decided to skip yet another semester. Why? Because class fees have tripled in the past 18-24 months and I can no longer take classes for fun. So I'm going to spend a semester trying to figure out what I want to go to college for and meeting with a counselor to figure out how best to accomplish that.

ur, right now, what are mountain cedar spores? here in central california we have 'valley fever'. it isn't found anywhere else in the world. it is from spores/mold in the soil. we saw a lot of it a few years back when out-of-state construction workers were here to build a hotel and the new junior high school. people not from the valley often have a lower resistance to valley fever and stirring up the soil releases the mold.
people can get mild to severe cases. i have a friend who was in the hospital for 30 days and had to have respiratory therapy twice a day for all those days and then as an outpatient for several more weeks. other people only get a mild rash and slight flu symptoms.
turns out my husband had (unresolved) valley fever when he was in the military at castle air force base in atwater (about 40 miles from where we now live). he never knew he had it back in the 70's. one year his physical showed spots on his lungs. they were scars. we go 'over the hill' to the san jose area, different valley, different county... and the doctors had mostly never even
heard of valley fever. also, we had only lived where we are for a year or so. when husband suggested it was valley fever, they did some research and told him the scarring was too old to be from a recent case and we hadn't lived in this area long enough, blah blah. when dh told them he HAD lived in this area 20-some years earlier, their ears perked up.
so i am wondering if those spores are like our valley fever?

right now, war, yes the fees are pretty high for classes! son just registered for 14 units at his community college and it was 350 dollars, plus some fees for parking, student health, etc. (which you have to pay even if you have two health insurances!) i'm glad your prof got the test!! sounds like you did great in your class.

right now, i have to get on the treadmill. i need to lose 3 pounds so i can gain them over christmas....LOL

Right now I want to scream!! DS took the car, and refused to come home on Sunday like he said. I feel like we're being taken advantage of... DH is vewwy vewwwy angry, and we have to go to his sis' wedding Friday... note, we were told not to come to his mom's house, by his mom, because that's where his sisters are staying... all righty then!

Right now,I just had a good scare! I went to the bus stop to get the four year old and she wasn't on the bus! I run in and call the school,they put her on the wrong bus! Usually,her brother would have been there,but he was at the docs today. So,she finally gets home,and of course she is upset! She's fine now,decorating the tree. Sheeeshhhh,I hate that.

Thanks guys. I'm sure I sounded quite frantic on the phone. Now she says she doesn't want to go to school tomorrow.
