1. Hey everyone....it's been at least 4-5 days since I've posted in here. Hope everyone is doing well, even though someone is shrinking...lol!

2. To JRT...this little oval shaped vixen thanks you for the 'shout out'.....that was nice to read this morning!! And yay for your 16 y/o ds!!

3. Speaking of sons, ds#2 has been selected for a workstudy program over the summer.

4. He will be spending his summer in Portland, Oregon assisting a Youth Group at a church.

5. He will earn tuition monies toward his '04-'05 school/college year.....yay!!

6. I'm happy to fly him to Portland, Oregon. Do some of you remember the summer he was entering his Senior year of high school?

7. He flew halfway around the world to Sri Lanka as he was a recipient of a Earthwatch Institute scholarship and was able to study Temple Monkeys out in the field.

8. I can't believe Egbob and I really let him go to Sri Lanka, traveling there all by himself...wowza!

9. I remember picking him up at LAX upon his return from Sri Lanka and seeing the change in his eyes...his first comment to me was "I missed you" followed by "I now know I am capable to do anything in this world that I want to do!"...now that was one of my proudest moments with this kidlet!!

1. I don't know how long it's been since I posted here... too long, I guess.

2. I'm feeling very disconnected from this place, but I am only to blame for that.

3. My life is busy, hectic, crazy, wonderful, and interesting right now.

4. I'm very busy with the single's group, having tons of fun, and making some really good friends.

5. I have 2 new volunteer stints that I will be doing starting tomorrow.

6. The really awesome one is at the City Hall, where I'll be in the Customer Relations Department manning the front desk and fielding calls, filing, word processing, graphics, and whatever else needs to be done.

7. I wish it could be a real paying job, but with the fibro, I can't be reliable for keeping a real job. :-(

8. I'm still meeting and dating new guys.

9. There are a couple of them that I'm real interested in.

10. The one I like the best lives about 155 miles away from here, but he came to visit me this weekend on his Harley, and we wode around town together. It was so much fun, and he wants me to go visit him soon, and said he loves to drive, and would come here and get me.

1. awww. eggo, i love that story. sounds like a great guy! :-)

2. i am TIRED. i worked late the past 2 days and i am still behind. :-( the 3 of us in my department did overs 40 hours worth of work today (we worked a total of 28 hours - only 2 of us stayed late)

3. my left wrist hurts, also from my job. hope it isn't carpal tunnel. i will have to start wearing my magnet bracelet again. (i am too young for this, lol).

4. the guy i work with that didn't stay late today, actually got a 2nd job (why he didn't stay...had to be there). he is working 90 hours a week! that is totally insane! imho.

5. he doesn't even need to work all those hours, he just really likes money! he is from laous (SP?) and has a very good work ethic. he has only called in once, and that was from his hospital room!

6. monday morning there was ice on my windshield and fog on the inside of the windows. today it was in the high 70's. crazy missouri weather.

7. i have a lot of taped tv shows to catch up on. i hate being behind. especially on my soap (Y&R). lots of good stuff is happening on there now.

8. a year ago yesterday is when we had all the deadly tornadoes in this area last year. i am glad it isn't this time last year.

9. even though i have never suffered first-hand from a tornado, i am terrified of them, and have nightmares about them frequently. weird, huh?

10. i just made low(er) fat/cholesterol brownies. yum, i like them more than regular cooked ones!

1. Hi everyone! This is my favorite thread these days (right next to the Updates of course!)
2. Not much is new with me-I am still a busy busy bee just running around trying to juggle a very hectic schedule.
3. Although, I have been put in charge of the "games" during an upcoming Bridal shower and fell a bit lost-so anyone who has some great idea is more than welcome to post them in my folder!
4. I have missed watching Joan of Arcadia for over a month now and it bums me out so much...you have no idea!

1. My parents are here. They are going to help me with a garage sale. They said it was ok to sell their old diningroom table and rickety chairs.

2. I fell asleep while grading papers for the third time this week. Hope I can get them all done before I give them their final at 10!

3. One of my students came over to work and pulled out a tall kitchen garbage can of crumbled rotten brick out of my chimney clean outs. He looked like he had been working in a coal mine! He also replaced one window and broke the glass for the other. We're still ahead of the game, though.

4. My porch carpet is all stapled down! WHEW! That was a different couple of students.

5. My two student teachers are coming over today to paint in the basement.

6. The only big job left (I think) is laying the sticky vinal tiles in the kitchen.

I'm REALLY TIRED!!! But am going to push through the next few days!

1) DS failed his drivers license exam today. Still
has the permit for another week. Nothing major, just small details.

2) Thankfully, a friend of DS's took her test today as well. She did not pass either; not that I am happy she didn't, but at least he doesn't feel alone, and neither does she!

3) DH has been home from work for 4 days with an Upper Respiratory Infection. He is a baby with a cold, but this one is a doozy!!! Poor guy!

4) I am home today because I am just flat out exhausted. Haven't slept well, everyone in my office is sick and I'm taking a "me" day!

5) Ready to watch Starting Over in it's unrecorded format! Yeah!

6) Heating up some homemade bean soup for DH and I.

7) It's Survivor night!!!! Yeah Yeah!

Sage, that is great about the singles group. My dearest friends are from my Singles Class at church. We are all married now and still hang together and our DHs have meshed together also. I like the sounds of that Harley man and vote for him!

1. I am looking forward to going to the beach next week and spending my days strolling looking for shells and catching up on my reading.

2. My stepdaughter is getting married again in 2 weeks and I dread seeing her mother who does not like my DH or me because he did not include her in his toast at the first wedding (not appropriate IMHO especially since she was the one who ended the marriage and is married to the guy she left my DH for). Oh well, it is only one day and my stepdaughter is a jewel!

3. Ditto everyone on Survivor!

1. I was washing dishes last night and realized the hot water wasn't getting hot.
2. Had a guy come out this morning to see if we needed a new hot water heater.
3. Thankfully, he just had to replace a part and I should have hot water in about and hour. Yay!!
4. Now I have piled up dinner and breakfast dishes to do and today is laundry day and I really need a shower!
5. I am so excited to go away this weekend. The thing I am looking forward to most is sleeping in, I have been really exhausted lately.
6. We are taking my son to the dentist on Monday morning to see how much work he actually has to have done on his teeth. The other dentist said his molars were full of decay.
7. I'm glad more people are posting in this thread!
8. I hope everyone has a great day!

1. We're sharing exhaustion this week Jewels! I have been sleeping like crap since Saturday night.

2. Dakota has been complaining of not feeling well for two days.

3. Miraculously, yesterday she was well as soon as she got home from school and this morning felt totally better when I mentioned I would be volunteering in her class this afternoon.

4. Since Caleb had a sick day Monday, I think that is where her not feeling well is coming in.

5. The motor on our swamp cooler broke yesterday. Mow wasn't too suprised, said it was about time for it to happen.

6. At least its cooler today than it has been, so no big deal that I can't use it.

7. I have done no work on the wedding album since Sunday. I really need to get to it!

8. My sis is watching the kids for us Friday night. I think we're just going to spend a quiet night at home and sleep in late Saturday morning. For some reason that sounds much more appealing than going out somewhere.

9. I'm going to go hop in the shower and see if I can wake up some and be less zombie like!

1. I am feeling pretty good today for a change.

2. I am still sitting here in my night shirt and listening to Starting Over.

3. I don't pay much attention to it but it comes on after the View and I just never bother to change channels.

4. I usually have it on at work and I can't pay enough attention to it to know what is really going on.

5. I am off today and decided to pick my son up early from school.

6. I need to get dressed and run get him in a few minutes.

7. We are going to eat at Peking,

8. Then go to the mall and shop for him a new pair of shoes.

9. Later we will go see Mean Girls.

10. I think we will have fun afternoon. Its fun to play hookey every now and then.

1. i am so glad it is now the weekend. this week at work has been pure hell. hallelujah, praise the LORD!

2. i saw this guy i dated off and on for, oh, 10 years today at the library. thankfully i was able to avoid him seeing me, but it was a really close call! bad situation. not to get into too much detail, but the dude is a loser. sorry if that is too brutal, but cheese and rice, what was i thinkin? (in my own defense, i was just 17 when we started dating, young and stupid!)

happy friday night!

1. I spent my entire afternoon worried about a duckling.

2. I found out today that I share a) the same last name as a TVCH poster and b) the same birthday (incl year) -- or thereabouts -- with another TVCH poster

3. My partner made homemade guacamole and chicken quesadillas for dinner tonight. They were delicious and I'm stuffed. What a lucky girl I am...

1. We dropped the kids off at my sisters after they got out of school today so that Mow and I could have a night alone.

2. We planned a quiet evening at home, rather than going out. Had a nice afternoon and evening. We watched a movie and ordered chinese for dinner.

3. At 9pm, my sis called. Dakota was feeling lousy again, running a fever, and sounding like crud. We decided it was better to pick her up than run the risk of her getting the baby sick.

4. Wasn't what I'd planned but we had a nice, quiet evening together, which is more than we've had lately.

1. Well, as if this week wasn't stressful enough seems the DD thought she could add one more item to it by getting Strep Throat!
2. I have never had Strep before, nor has she but yep-at the busiest time in my life seems that is exactly what she was dealt!
3. She was up all night Thursday throwing up and crying-poor thing.
4. I go in for some dental surgery on Tuesday to remove a cyst that has taken over where a root canal was done years ago-ack!
5. I am already at my limits of facts and just got started! Phoey!

1. last night i went to my college roommate's (still a very dear friend) little brother's college graduation party. it was a lot of fun.

2. she and i used to be so inseparable in school that we were often mistaken for sisters. (people thought we looked alike, too).

3. she got married last august and i haven't seen much of her since then. :-( she has a family, and is also a teacher, and is very busy.

4. i ordered the gilmore girls season 1 dvd set on friday. i found a place online that doesn't charge tax or shipping for it. i got a decent deal on it.

5. my kitty has had some pretty amusing behaviour lately, including body-slamming herself against the glass deck door in pursuit of a bird, and standing on her hind legs on the back of the couch trying to "catch" cobwebs on the ceiling. lol, gotta love 'em!

6. i got my mom a friendship light, tea light burner for mother's day. it has a nice little saying on it. i hope she likes it.

Happy Mother's Day to all our moms!

1. I have been watching Sex and the City for most of the day.

2. My DS spent the night at Granma's last night so it has been a perfect day for watching it.

3. I am so proud of my DS, he will be receiving the President's Award for Educational Excellence at his 6th grade graduation. He is so smart. He must take after his Mommy

4. My kitty is asleep on my foot. My foot is going numb. yep, gotta love 'em!!

5. My DH has been gone since 4:30 am fishing. Shouldn't he be here waiting on me hand and foot today? secretly, I've enjoyed the peace and quiet

6. I think I will order pizza tonight since it is Suvivor Sunday. I've been wanting to try that new Buffalo chicken pizza from Pizza Hut.

7. Happy Mothers Day to all the TVCH Moms.
