thanks for your support and prayers guys. eggie, it is funny that you mention the NICU staff. this weekend just happened to be the annual childrens miracle network telethon. one of the local news stations sponsors it every year. they had tv cameras in the ICU, and baby drew just about got on tv. they had chosen her to be on a story, but then someone from a previous year came in instead. they say she is doing very well and have been very helpful.

1. Kaili, what an adorable little guy! I love babies! 2. Jake had more dental work done today, they had to numb him this time and now I have to keep him from biting his cheek off. One more day for the crown, then it will be all over, what a trooper. 3. I went to a greeting card party on Friday night. There were 55 of us and in the last couple months we have all made 55 cards. Then at the party we traded cards so I came home with 55 different, beautiful homemade cards. It was so much fun! I'm took a picture of my card to show my mom, I'll try to post it here...

1. Gorgeous, what a gift... and prayers... and what a wonderful idea a card party... 2. Its hot, the mosquitos are out... and I want to quit. 3. I got phone service today, well I would if I lived an ordinary life...but NOOooo nothing quite that simple... I bought a new 5.4ghz phone from ATT and it says that there is a phone on, which there isnt, dh worked in phones, so its not good news... I used my cell phone to call our new number, it rings, and goes to voice mail... I hate this life. 4. DS2 is out with friends ds1 went to register for classes, I forgot his IEP, so I get to do it ALL OVER AGAIN tomorrow...

1. I got my hair done today - trimmed and grayless - where is that hair thread? 2. I ran into a friend at the grocery store and invited her for lunch on Wednesday 3. I made strawberry shortcake from scratch for my dh's dessert today 4. It rained and the sun came out off and on all day today, but I missed seeing any rainbows 5. Another friend called me tonight because she forgot what hotel we are staying in this weekend in Houston for the bowling tournament

1. I have a tendency to jump to conclusions when left clueless about a certain thing. 2. This leaves me feeling quite miserable, and I really haven't figured out how to deal with it. 3. It's like an emotional rollercoaster that I can't seem to get off of. 4. I can certainly relate to Reader about hating this life... but you know, I love it, too. 5. My medical problem is finally getting cleared up, and healing. This set-back I had showed me how careful I have to be in what I do physically. 6. I have gotten into playing darts - a lot, and I must say, I am getting pretty good at it. Just this evening, I played four games with my friend, Larry, and I won 3 of those games.

1. Lack of sleep is playing havoc with my mind. Everything is decidedly fuzzy today, even after chocolate and diet pepsi for breakfast! 2. I used to play darts a lot, Sage, are you playing cricket? That was my fav, with 401 a close second. 3. I'm in the middle of a terrible and first ever fight with my mother in law. I don't know what to do about it. Makes me sad. 4. Work is extremely hectic right now (I suppose that makes sense: bottled water company = busy in hot weather) but I don't feel like doing anything. One of my favorite quotes is something to the effect of "nothing I want to do, yet so much that needs to be done." I'm so tired I can't even remember it exactly. 5. Trying to conceive around here . . ovulation should be in the next couple days . . praying that this is the month. 6. This past mother's day I made my mom and my mil photo frame bracelets that turned out beautifully. They have six photos each and their very nice. Since I gave them theirs I've made five more and now I'm selling them. Woohoo! 7. Another fact about me? Sheesh. I've recently discovered I LOVE That 70's Show and now I'm watching it in reruns every day. Simple pleasures.

1. I was wondering where the Hair Thread was as well Gracie. I, too, had gotten a color'n'cut and my cut is the shortest I've had ina long, long time and I like it alot. 2. Kaili, we'll be needing a Baby Leif update soon...thanks! 3. Jewels, I love your homemade card party concept...how kewl! And tell Jake that this old codger found out that she has to get a crown and so she'll be feeling the numb feeling today...yukie! I'll try to be a trooper like Jake! 4. Sage my friend, I love your honesty and posting from your heart...you are such a lovely soul. 5. Yesterday at work, we took a tour of our new office-to-be. It was a bittersweet moment for me knowing that I won't be moving in with my co-workers. A few of us has misty eyes yesterday. 6. But on the reverse of all this, my new Director-to-be sent me an email and invited me to tour our new offices on the 4th floor of the same new building and I'll get to see my new office-to-be. 7. The concept of my very own office is just astounding to me. I've shared all my spaces for all my life. I've never had my own bedroom, my own bathroom or my own office ever before. One out of three ain't so bad in my lifetime...LOL!! 8. Back to my new shorter hair cut. Yesterday at work, everyone threw compliments my way and even said I looked younger!! Younger??!!! Okay, I'll take it, anything to help!! Have a great Tuesday my Factoid Friends!!

1. Cindori, I love that 70's show! The sacred circle cracks me up. 2. I'm registered, I'm registered! 3. I stayed up til midnight thinking I'd be able to register then, but it wouldn't let me til 6am. 4. I was trying to get an English class which I really need. After entering the course number for probably 10 different English classes and getting errors each time, it dawned on me that I wouldn't be getting the class this semester because it was just filling up too fast. 5. Instead of English, I got Sociology. Also took an Intro to Internet Research (I think it will be boring, but helpful,) and History of Art. 6. I was only going to take two classes but the internet course is only worth 1 unit instead of 3 and it's entirely online so thought I could handle a third class. 7. One of the other classes is in the morning, the other in the early afternoon. Both are twice a week and an hour and a half long each. With the kids both in school all day, I can do this easily and still volunteer in their classes, though it will take some creative scheduling. 8. The only downside to this is I will have to drive out to the college four times a week and it will suck gas out of my car, lol. 9. I've known for awhile I wanted to get back in classes, and I've been struggling to find classes that were still open for the past week. What I didn't count on was how good I'd feel to register and know that in August I will be back in school. I enjoy learning new things and the fact that it will get me out of the house and it's something just for me makes it much better. I'm almost giddy about it, lol.

1. That 70's show has been my fav since it started and I have watched all the re-runs more than twice. Funny! 2. My youngest who graduated in Jan, walked with her class for graduation ceremony on June 2 3. On June 3, she gave me some big, huge news. 4. I'm still getting use to the big, huge news and will for sure be talking about it soon enough. 4.5 I love reading all the facts about people.

1. Now I'm wondering what Denecee's big huge news is. 2. I really don't feel like working today. 3. I've been working my butt off for a few months now. I deserve a break, yes? 4. Now I really can't wait to watch That 70's Show at 6:00 and 6:30. 5. I particularly like the episodes when Jackie and Hyde are together. Hyde is my fav!

1. I haven't posted for quite a while but rest assured, I have been keeping up with all of you. I wish I had the space to comment on everyone's sharing and observations. 2. I am now officially on jury duty, having spent 9 hours at the courthouse yesterday and being selected to sit on a rape case in Superior Court. 3. The trial starts Thursday, which is the last day of school for my kids. Not the most convenient time to be doing my "civic duty" but I will juggle schedules to do it. 4. The trial is supposed to last at least three days. 5. I am hoping it won't run late into next week as we were going down to Oregon mid-week to see my Mom and brother. 6. Raining cats and dogs here in the desert! Go figure!

1. I haven't searched new messages yet today, so I have no clue what's been happening around here. 2. I'm supposed to be getting my DSL today, however it's not quite the deal the guy promised me. I'm going to end up spending $6 more dollars than the $1 more a month he said it will cost us over the dial-up. And whatever it will cost to get DH's computer hooked up to the "wireless" adapter too. 3. I'm usually really good at saying "NO" to these sales people, but I couldn't pass up the chance to see what it's (DSL) like. 4. I got some not so good to me, but everyone else seems happy news yesterday. My niece, who is 19 and engaged, is pregnant. 5. She had just started beauty school. I guess she can work up until her due date, or comfort level, and then can return after the baby is born. 6. I'm disappointed because she had always promised to wait until she was older. Her Mother was 15 when she had her. I just hope she's ready. Her fiance seems to be a really good guy, and they were planning on next summer for the wedding. (They've been together about a year and half I think, maybe more.) 7. My son has his first real girlfriend at age 18. I met her yesterday. I think he was always a little shy before this. He had girl friends, just not a girlfriend. It was weird seeing him hold her hand, etc. 7.1 I'm getting OLD. 7.2 So will I be a Great Aunt then? 7.3 I'd better not be a GRANDMOTHER for at least 5 years!! 7.4 Please send me good vibes that DH and I don't kill each other before next week is over. 7.5 And good vibes that this DSL thing goes online with no problems..

1. LOTS of good vibes going out to you MGA! 2. I took my kidlets to open gym time at a gymnastics place today. Because the weather is gross, it was packed. 3. They had such a good time though. Jake was bouncing on all the trampolines, swinging on rope swings, walking on balance beams and all sorts of stuff. The smile on his face melted my heart, he loved it so much! It was probably the happiest I have ever seen him. 4. I have been wanting to sign him up for a gymnastics class, but wanted to see if he would enjoy it. Now I am definitely going to sign him up. 5. Jenna, of course, ran around like the crazy girl that she is. I had to keep her from getting trampled by all the other kids. I was exhausted by the time we left. 6. I am in the process of finding a company to transfer my family's old home movies to DVD for my mom and dad's 40th anniversary in August. 7. While they are very social people they don't like parties in their honor and my mom would be horrified if I threw one. 8. Anyone else have any ideas?

1. i want to thank everyone again for all your well wishes and prayers for baby drew. she is doing well, and everything is going as planned. 2. i went birthday shopping for my niece this afternoon. i got her 2 new outfits and they are so cute! one of the shirts says "cutie girl" on it, and has a cartoon girl that looks just like her. 3. it's hotter than hell here! work is miserable because of it and it has only just started! 4. i called my apartment office earlier, pretending to be interested in renting, to find out about the closed pool. lol, i put on my best hillbilly accent. lol i was pretty pleased with myself for thinking that one up. 5. unfortunately, the pool may be closed for 4-6 MORE weeks. turns out a vehicle ran into the fence and they are trying to settle with the insurance company. i don't care what the reason is, i think it bites! 6. i went and voted today on a proposition for a school tax levy. i voted yes. i think education is important and our schools need to be kept up with. 7. my sister is having a garage sale saturday (neighborhood wide) i think i am going to try to sell some of my clothes that i dont' wear anymore. 8. i have a very low tolerance for stupidity. 9. i can't snap my fingers on my left hand.

9.125 Jbean, you're so funny! I can snap my fingers with both hands, but I can only wink with one eye. The other side of my face doesn't seem to work! P.S. I'm glad Drew is doing well!
