1. Eggie, I'm assuming you meant TVCH withOUT Mocha is not right...and I agree. I hope you continue to post when you are comfortable Mocha.

2. I am so glad baby Drew is continuing to do well Jbean! The picture with your neice and her puppy sounds adorable.

3. <<copy and paste Calamity's #1 fact here>> That is how I feel too!

4. Congrats Hermione on your weight loss! That is awesome!

5. I went walking last night with some mom's from my new mom's group and we had such a good time. We laughed and chatted the whole way and ended up walking 6 miles. My legs are a little tired today!

6. I want to lose 10 pounds, but they are the same 10 pounds that have haunted me for a few years, they just don't want to go away!

7. Can someone please make my kids stop jumping and doing headstands on our couches. It is driving my buggy!!!!

8. My sister-in-law are going to go to Dream Dinners together and split 12 meals. Has anyone ever been there? I know some other people that have done it and say it is great. I think it is dreamdinners.com, if I knew how to do a link I would, but everyone should see if there is one in their area.

9. I was washing dishes earlier and stabbed myself in the arm with a knife that was in the dish drainer, it is starting to hurt a little bit. Okay, it was more of a poke than a stab, but still, it hurts.

10. I hope everyone has a happy and safe weekend!!

1. I paid off my credit cards and my 2nd mortgage today! YIPPEEEEEE!!!!!

2. I was able to do that because the university took me off of payroll, and paid off the rest of my contract in one lump sum. Mr. Taxman had a field day....Heck, I wish that I REALLY made five figures in a two week period, but it was nice to get that big check. Sorry, I'm not springing for dinner or drinks for everyone.

3. Now I have to figure out how to live for the next two months and move on what I have left. I still will have salary from my church job and a little more from piano lessons. The university also owes me some grant money, so I should be ok without the regular paycheck.

4. My new house has an above ground pool and a very beautiful deck and backyard. I'm hoping that my queen sized four-poster bed will make it up the stairs. I decided that my piano and organ will go in the room with the fireplace, and that my office will be the bigger of the two other bedrooms. I think that I will eventually need to buy a couple of wing chairs for the fireplace room, and some bookcases and vertical files for my office, and I should be set.

5. I gave up on moving myself, and called the local moving company. The man was very nice and said that he would store my stuff for a week before driving it out. I just hope that it will be under $5k to move it all. I get the estimate next week. This gives me one more chance to pack up books and take to my parents. Books are Sooooo heavy to move, and I have 10 bookcases full of academic books that cannot be left behind.

Are we back on track with the numbering?

Have a great weekend everyone!!!!

1. well shit, luv. glad you have a new folder.

2. i made one whole dollar at sis' garage sale this morning. it was pouring rain, and hardly anyone was there. i told her to keep the dollar, it wasn't even worth the time and effort put into it all. :-(

3. i did buy an eddie bauer down coat from sis' friend sarah for $10. it will be nice and warm.

4. i bought my niece a little fairytopia barbie (the pink one) for her birthday toy. she wants to always give me everything she owns that is purple, or i would have bought the purple one for her.

5. i hate that it rains on saturdays all the time. i could be getting a tan.

6. i have started drinking at least 2 64 oz jugs of water at work every day. so far, just from doing this, i have lost 3 lbs in just 1 week. woo hoo!

1. I've been watching the Dodgers beat up the Boston Red Sox on TV with my sons.

2. I was telling my sons about the first time I ever went to Dodger Stadium. I was 11 years old and when I sat in my seat, I instantly fell in love with Dodger Stadium and the game of baseball.

3. Egbob and I will be attending a game at Dodger Stadium vs the Orioles next Wednesday and they will be celebrating the arrival of the Olympic Torch to Los Angeles.

4. This game will be fun too because we're going with alot of Egbob's teacher friends from his high school and their spouses.

5. This evening I'll be here all by myself because the boys are going out and Egbob is at Catalina Island on a weekend camping trip with his buddies.

6. I'm thinking about renting some DVD's and having a long movie night. I hear "Monster" and "Mystic River" are two movies to see.

7. It's nice to be home with nothing to do...I really needed today.

1) It's finally quiet here and hey Eggie, I'm alone for the night too!

2) Last night was my youngest son's prom. I was a picture taking maniac, I hope they come out.

3) Our school has an after prom party at high school and all the seniors win prizes, my son traded his prize for a $50 gift certificate for gas, LOL!

4) I had a house full of boys sleeping here all day so I tried to be quiet, now they are wide awake and were so loud I sent them out to the movies.

5) My aunt's cancer has progressed rapidly, we are put on alert for any day now.

6) I'm very selfish in praying that she has more time with us, she is only 64 years old.

7) I finally got all the invitations to my son's graduation party sent out, am I the only one that can't find one or two addresses every time I'm sending invitations or even Christmas cards?

8) I thought I'd be sad having my last child graduate but I find myself relieved and thankful.

1. {{{SS}}} My prayers are still with you and your family.

2. Darren's golf tourney for work was today. He had a great time, but came home fried! In 9 years of being together, I think I've had to tend to 2-3 of his sunburns, while he has to deal with mine every other weekend.

3. We had two parties to go to tonight. The first was for his boss. On the way home from the tourney, he told bossman he was feeling lousy and that he didn't think he could handle being in the sun anymore. LOL, bossman understood!

4. On to the second party. We waited til it cooled down and the sun set before going to the graduation party.

5. We walked up, Darren said his hello's to everyone, congratulated the new graduate, talked to her parents and my sis and bil for awhile before making his way into the house where he spent the rest of the evening chit chatting with everyone who came in.

6. The neices and nephews swarmed me, gave me hugs, and then took Caleb and Dakota off. I didn't see them again til it was time to leave.

7. As I walked in, someone came up and handed me baby neice. Now, I have six neices and nephews, my own two children, and have been blessed by lots of friends with children of their own. I have never known a baby that is happier or more of a people person than little Bailey. She wakes up in the morning (I love mornings when she spends the night) in the best, playful, happiest mood and it continues throughout the day. This was not the case tonight!

8. The last time I babysat her, I pointed out to my bil when he picked the kids up her red, swollen eyes. Throughout the last week or so, she's had more and more time with the red eyes and runny nose. Sis took her to the dr. and he said she has allergies and prescribed some medicine for it. She was so miserable tonight. her eyes and nose were runny, eyes were red and puffy, and with the medicine she was just spacey. She didn't crack one grin the whole time I was there and just sat in my lap, not even interested in what was going on around her. Poor baby spent half the night with me just staring into space and the other half sitting on the couch with Darren. And what a sight the two of them made, him with his sunburn and her with her raging allergies, they looked so pathetic and sad!

9. As we were leaving I walked over to my bil who was holding her. We were talking about how bad she looked, when she started to drool. There was a little red tint to it. You have never seen two people move in unison as the two of us did. He literally tossed her to me, and I had her laid across one arm, while my free hand tilted her head back just a little, as he pried open her mouth and searched for where the blood was coming from. In about three seconds flat, we found she had cut her tongue. She's been teething, and has been sticking her whole fist in her mouth to gnaw on it. Once we checked her hand, we found a tiny bit of blood under a fingernail, so it looks like she scratched herself. Sure scared the crud out of both of us before we figured out what it was though!

9.5 Now I'll head over to the Right Now thread and finish the saga of toothpick finger, LOL.

1. {{{Mocha}}} I love you dearly and I wish I could take your pain away. Please tell your doctor you need pain meds. And please don't stop posting. I would miss you terribly. If you feel like crying I'll cry with you. If you feel like talking I'll listen. If you need cheering up I'll make you laugh. You know how to reach me at anytime of the day or night. I love you this---------------------------much!

2. Its late and my brain is fried so I'm only doing 2. Sorry, my friends.

1. It's a beautiful sunny day here in Northern Minnesota. The sky is crystal clear torquiose blue.
2. I'm going to wash my car by hand this morning, I haven't done that since I bought it in December. Just been going through the car wash and it doesn't do the best job.
3. I'm hoping to get into a water fight with my hubby, act like a kid and have some fun today!!
4. I have NOT mastered my new cameras many options and the pictures are turning out crappy. I'll have to work on that today too.
5. I've been making something for all my TVCH friends that are coming here in TWO weeks! I am going to have to get busy to finish in time! Yikes!
6. Secret Smile, I hope that you will be ok. I know how hard this all must be for you, and you are in my prayers!
7. My peonies should be blooming any day now, since they waited so long already I wish they would wait till the summer gathering. They smell soooo good, and I'd love to put boquets in all the cabins.
8. Jetskis are the biggest gas hogs in the world. I am really disappointed in the one we bought. You have to be a flippin' Oil barron to afford the gas they take for a day of enjoyment.
9. I'm getting sad and nostalgic about this being my last summer as a resort owner. What will I call myself next year? Any suggestions? And be nice! lol
10. I love TVCH, miss Mocha and hope she feels better!

1. I'm chillin for a bit (really tough day at the office).
2) Mondays are so busy - I always have to dig a little deeper to get everything done I feel I need to.
3) To make matters worse, Our new sales mgr has decided that Mondays will be that dept's day that they all stay in the office & pow wow.
4) This has been going on for about the last 2 months & I can honestly tell you that they seem to be having a "party" more than actually getting anything done.
5) There's 4 of them & they sure get in everyone else's way (especially mine).
6) I for sure keep my office door shut now on Mondays but since the wall facing out of my office is glass, I don't have much luck keeping them out.
7) They want to come in and chit chat because that's all they're doing anyway & I guess they don't want me to feel left out.
8) Then my boss (who IS the main boss - He's the direct boss to the Sales Mgr, the Svc. Mgr, & me) jams up his computer & calls me over to his office to "fix" it. Took me all of 10 min.
9) Then he hands me a potential customer's business card & wants me to take bits & pieces of the graphics & change this & that on it & create him some workable art work "when I have time" today. Took me about 45 min.
10) Sorry this sounds like it should be in the "Gripe" thread but this is just typical of my Mondays - YES, I'm having a cocktail!

1. Summer vacation...yay!

2. I'm worried my kitty might be sick. She has been laying about sort of mopey, and wasn't all that interested in her Fancy Feast dinner that she usually gobbles down.

3. Today at work one of my bosses came to me and said so-and-so (my newish co-worker) had this "great idea!" She (the boss) tells me what it is, and obviously doesn't recall that it was something I brought up to her months ago. He (co-worker) didn't steal it from me, but somehow she liked it better from him I guess. Grrr.

4. I don't drink soda all that often, but I got hooked on Sprite Tropical Remix. A few months ago they discontinued it for the new Berry Remix. I stocked up and now I am down to my last few cans. Sigh...

5. Today in line at the grocery store I started looking through the "new and improved" Star magazine, and I almost ended up putting it in my basket. Yikes.
