The dh is still in WA and had to go to the Memorial Service for his brother. 4. He asked what I wanted to do for our 30th. 5. I told him...file for divorce?? NOT! 6. Thekid is out on a HOT date tonight!! YES!!! 7. The pups and I watched Stump lose. <sniff> 8. Good going Puppylov! 9. Eggie, that is beyond AWESOME!!

1 - It's nice to hear grandparents are still joining each other in the shower. 2 - I just got home from a weekend in Victoria visiting my bf. It was wonderful, as usual. 3 - I am home a day early, because I didn't take my Bio book with me, because my teacher said she tests ONLY from her notes. The test Monday is on Chapter 1, we started our notes on Chapter 2. Had to come home a day early to read the first chapter tonight. 4 - I woke up with bumps on me. My bf had a staph infection (as did many on his rugby team in December), and I am guessing that is the culprit. However his were only in ONE little area, mine are on my shoulder, my face, and my upper chest. Heading to the doc in the morning to figure it out. 5 - I have English tomorrow, and I despise my pompous teacher. 6 - I am still looking for good gif sites, and haven't found any that I like. I haven't been diligent about it though. 7 - Did I mention how cool it is that grandparents are still joining each other in the shower? 8 - Vee left a puggly wuggly picture in my folder, and it rekindled my desire to move to a pets-allowed building, and buy a pug. But I don't want to buy from a puppy-mill, and I also don't feel like some breeder judging my ability to LOVE a pug based on my configuration of my apartment, or my schedule, or any other unusual sign of not-worthiness. 9 - I think my passionate desire to get a pug is related to my biological clock not agreeing with my practical/reality-check clock. 10 - I hope that I have followed the rules of the thread properly. Eggie?

1. Congrats to KSTME! 2. Ellie showed up in the crawl space after I left the garage door up for a while. She just peeked out and zipped into the house. 3. She got rewarded by getting to take a long nap with me inside and a nice can of tuna/food. PURRRRRRfect. 4. I was quite relieved to find her, as it is rather cold out. Water dish is frozen over AGAIN! 5. Dang, I have to get my two new classes ready tomorrow. BLECH. I don't feel like working, but maybe I''ll get a second wind at 3 or 4 this morning. 6. Jet lag really bites! 7. Forgot to eat supper. I think I was asleep with the cat at about 7:30 or 8! 8. I think that I will be joining the church in Carbondale this semester. I had a few issues with the worship, but I think I have it resolved. 9. It will be nice to see my students on Tuesday. I suppose that some of them will be around tomorrow. 10. My parents have arrived home safely. I left my phone off, so Mom had to email.

1. Gracie, Kota saw a picture of a pineapple upsidedown cake in the cookbook one day and thought it looked good. She's been asking since then if we could make one.

1. Leif came to see me this weekend. I suck and forgot to take any pictures of him...and he is so, so, so cute. I can't get over it. His outfits that they have for him are the best too..little cargo pants, the cutest snowman suit and cown hat with little balls at the end. He snuggles his head into you and hugs and I. Love. Him. 2. So that was fun... that was about the extent of my weekend. We have food routine when they come over... Korean for dinner and Italian for lunch. There's two resturaunts here that they always want to go too becasue they're soo good. Leif was an angel at the resturaunts and just sat looking around and playing with his little table toys. 3. It's still cold out... I didn't go to work at UPS on Friday night because it was too cold for me (and I was stressed and sad about the little girl at school)... it's still cold but I can't call in again. Darn it.

1. warmer here - still cold but not 3 degrees outside when I went to start the car this morning so that's a plus. 2. slept badly last night. not sure why. 3. right foot/ankle was throbbing last night. Sprained that sucker like 15 years ago - has become a rather accurate barometer - we'll prolly get more precipitation that the weather peeps were saying this morning. 4. trying to get back into the facting habit now that year end has calmed down some. wrist is still aching a tad but not like it was so maybe I'll be here more often

1. When are people going to start realizing beauty comes from within? 2. When is Reader's principal going to stop being a dunderhead? 3. When is Reader going to find her cellphone? 4. When is Reader going to tell us she has her trip to Texas all worked out? 5. Sending the best vibes to Reader and an evil eye to the production staff of Oprah and the principal of the school. 6. Good thoughts because I will get to meet Reader in about 17 days! Yayyyyyy! 7. Kit still didn't get his hair cut.

1. Reader you are a beautiful person! 2. I'm being mean mommy again. Kids didn't pick up their rooms yesterday, so they had to this morning. All the while I listened to protests of "but, but, it's a holidayyyyyyyyy!" 3. It took them about 4 and a half minutes to do it! They still weren't happy, lol. 4. To continue my "mean" streak, it's about 65 degrees outside so I sent them to play out front about 11. I also sent the dog out back to play since he was a little wound up. Now I have the kids at the front door begging to come in (I had to lock the screen!) and Harvey at the back door scratching and whining to get back in. 5. I'll be letting all three in in a few minutes for lunch. I plan to take a shower, which means they'll be locked IN the house til I'm done, and you can bet I'll have all three of them begging at the doors to be let out! 6. Man, maybe I really am mean, but dang it's nice out there and not going to hurt them to play outside for a bit. 7. I haven't been able to wake up all the way today. Sis called at 7am to see if I'd watch my neices (sorry, not today, maybe Thursday.) I have too much to do to prepare for the insurance guy Wednesday to keep up with the girls on top of Caleb and Kota. 8. My sisters birthday is in 11 days. I'm buying her Scrabble, lol. I was chatting with her on the phone the other day while she played Shutes and Ladders with my niece and she made the comment that the only adult game they have is Yahtzee. I told her that we'd recently restocked on board games since the kids had outgrown the little kid games and the one she got excited about was Scrabble. It's so pathetic, lol. 10 years ago my ideal fun night was going out with Darren and some friends to the clubs, these days we sit around playing scrabble and consider it a fun night, lol.

1. i am home today since my office goes by dc federal holidays 2. cleared out my entire yahoo inbox today 3. got a few emails out from my work email account, which were a few days late, so that makes me feel good. 4. read an amicus brief and replied that my office would sign on in support of it (some human rights mumble jumble that i wont bother explaining) - never would have read the brief in time if i was actually in the office 5. already ran out of food and tv to watch, even with my soaps still on 6. looking forward to seeing oprah in a few minutes even if they do do what all shows do, and just show who they THINK are the young, camera friendly audience members. 7, Mondays have been boring for my thus year on TV - lets see if supernanny is any good tonight - and i really hope NBC finally shows the Contender in February, like the schedule says 8. could use a dose of Robin Williams daily - loved the quick recap of his career on the Globes last night and always love when he gets to talk ab-lib - his kids must have so much patience for him. 9. looking forward to another day off on thursday though i may go into DC to talk to a class at GW, if that is the only day available (i am surprised the universities arent closed as well on thursday in dc)

1) I love looking out at the heavy, windy snowfall even though I know it's probably going to be a slow drive home. 2) Hugs to Reader234 and anyone else who needs them. 3) I got a few presents for my birthday last week although I told my family we should hold off on celebrating it 'til next month. Mine's so soon after the holidays that no one ever seems that enthusiastic about it (except me!), LOL. 4) I'm having a very bad time getting out of a relationship which not only has sparked my commitment phobia and self-loathing, it is now causing me nightmares. Why oh why did I end up with a masochistic subconscious? 5) Leroy, the barn cat whose eye I had operated on last fall, still comes by to visit me sometimes. He's such a lovey cat and his eye looks great! Trixie, the other stray who cost me even more in vet bills last year, just wants to move into my house, LOL. 6) My great-aunt had to be admitted into a nursing home two weekends ago but we hope it's only temporary. When I was there Thursday, a therapy dog came by. My aunt never liked animals but I, of course, adored petting the doggy. I spent far too much time in hospitals growing up but when I get a dog again, I think I'd like to participate in one of those programs. 7) I'm planning a vacation this year - I'm considering either New York City, a cross-country drive, or an outdoor adventure trip to Canada. 8) I get to see my little niece and nephew tomorrow. 9) I've been having trouble falling asleep - am awake 'til 2-3 o'clock every night (er, morning) and then it's a struggle to get up. 10) I'll deeply regret posting my fact #4.

7.1 My vote is for outdoor-adventure in Canada. But that's just me. 1.1 Yay, Dencee! Grandbabies!! 1. Had a job interview this morning. I haven't felt this good about an interview since the interview that got me hired for my last job. 2. BF is home sick from work today, so I am off to the store for ginger ale, Buckleys, chicken soup and cheese for grilled sammies. *sigh* A woman's work is never done.

1. Rock and I took off this afternoon and went shopping. He needed jeans and we needed more luggage. 2. While shopping for his jeans, I picked up a new suit that must have been priced wrong. It was $43!!! Woohoo!! 3. Also went check my eyes and got 2 pairs for $98 at Eyewear Express. I'm nearsighted and had lost all my pairs of glasses. The whole way home I was singing "I can see!" "I can see!"

01. I've had a very busy and draining day today. 02. I scaled the top of Mt. Washmore: washed, dried, folded/hung, and put away all laundry; I unloaded, put away, reloaded, and ran the dishwasher; created the shopping list; cleaned the grunge from the washer lid; cleaned the cat fountain (amazed it was working it was clogged so badly). 03. I did some emotional excavation work in the afternoon--exploring my childhood years and relationships that have affected me even through today--and tried to figure out what (if any) baggage I wished to keep. 04. I then did a ritual burning of the past--I feel much lighter; I am happy that some psychic clutter was cleared out with the environmental clutter. 05. It's interesting that as I clear out the environmental and psyche clutter, the physical clutter (weight) becomes easier to manage. 05a. I have a new clipart icon courtesy of Seamonkey:

1. ((Reader)) 2. Grandma-to-be Denecee!! Yay! What is her actual due date? 3. Good luck on the job, Karen! 4. I love finding good deals! The day after Christmas my mom and I ventured to the mall to look around. We were looking at some cashmere sweaters, just because they were pretty when these two ladies came up to look at them and said that in the paper they were advertised as being $29.99. They were originally $150.00! We talked to the clerks and they said it was a mistake, but they would honor the price on one sweater per person. And on top of that we had 15% off coupons! Woo Hoo! I got a 2-ply beautiful black stylish zip-up sweater for about $25.50. 5. I love the sweater, but everytime I wear it I immediately take it off when I get home. It is really cute though. I wouldn't usually buy a cashmere sweater, but I definitely would never spend $150 on one! 6. I love your new clipart, Lkunkel!

1. Ah Skootz, I am so sorry. 2. Woke up late this morning. Ran to get the kids finished up so we could leave. Went to start my car and all I heard when I turned the key was click click. I'm pretty sure the battery is dead. 3. Thought for a minute then ran across the street to the neighbors house. I take their youngest to school. Told her I was going to call mom to come pick the kids up, she laughed at me and gave me the keys to their second car. I admit I wasn't thinking to clearly, lol. Our deal is that I take their kid and pick her up from school, and if I ever need a car to do it, I can use theirs. 4. I should mention, the wife doesn't drive. She knows how but has never gone to get her license. 5. Anyways, dropped the kids off at school, brought the car back and ended up standing outside talking to her for close to two hours. 6. I had told Hippy in chat last night I needed to run to the store for milk and gas. Decided not to go and do it this morning. WIth the car dead, I wasn't going to go but also needed some cleaners so I decided to take a quick walk. 7. I forgot how much I enjoyed that. I now feel peppy. 8. I think I'm going to start walking again every day as long as the weather is nice. 9. I've got a lot of work to do today. Got to clean the carpets, mop the floors, and fold and put away a load of laundry. Need to vacuum the kids rooms and change their sheets and think about what I'm doing for dinner tonight. So why am I sitting here? Especially since I feel peppy!
