Right now, I'm watching one of my fav movies - Cher and Moonstruck, lovee the DVD extras!! I am so frustrated about the @*@*@* wallpaper, 1 -2 hours per strip... I have tried homemade concocations, and DIF , went to a rent all place and got a steamer, harder to handle (you only have one hand,the other has this very hot heavy thingamajig) and still, only teeny tiny pieces come off, I HATE THE PEOPLE that put this crap on WRONG (it is taking off the 'paint' in places, and pieces of drywall - - more work for moi!) Praises to dd, her patience for this project is wonderful! She works that tiger thingamajig (with rolling the steam and chemicals is supposed to get to come off faster! oh well, so much for my luck!) right now "snap out of it my fav line from this movie!! *grin

Right Now, (and for the past few weeks) I am so desperately sad for the youngsters who are dying in Iraq that I can't come here and discuss anything frivilous. I, personally, know only one young man who is there. If the Gods are kind, he is supposed to ship out of danger June 30. He will get to come home about July 10. Then the bloodsuckers who are running this stupid show will send him back for another year. Will he survive that? Right now I am so desperately sad that nearly 1000 brave young American soldiers have died for absolutely nothing. Right now I am wondering if 55,000 brave young soldiers have to die (as in VietNam) before we bring them home. Right now, I have spent the last 6 months praying my guts out so one adorable young man might come home to his Mom. Right now, I cannot imagine being silly again.

Right now, my heart is breaking for Sunrvrose, but that is exactly why I come here and get silly. If I didn't I would go mad.

Annie, I appreciate your goodwill. I have hidden in TVCH, and have found more solace than anyone could imagine during many sadnesses in my life. Right Now, I am one tough cookie, probably the most unbreakable cookie you could find. But my heart is broken now. It is broken for every patriotic young soldier in this mess.

Right now sunrvrose, I'm thinkingo f my friend. Her son just got back from Iraq, and he only tells her that it was "unspeakable" the horrors he and others have seen. She just found out her other son must go (he was involved in training soldiers, and wansnt on a "deploy" status) My prayers are added to yours sunrvrose. She is involved with a Support Group that keeps her motivated.

right now, i had to work the restaurant at the golf course, which i have never done. dd had to come in and take over the pro shop. why? because the gal who was scheduled to work the restaurant today has a dd who got into serious, serious danger last night. seems her dd went to a friend's house last night at 10:30 (she is 15). at midnight, an anonymous male caller told them they had better come and get their drunk daughter because she was 'sick'. they rushed to get her and an ambulance and several police cars were there. the daughter was rushed to a hospital and later mediflighted to children's hospital in madera. her blood alcohol level was .450! she was still unconscious at 8:00 this morning. i haven't heard anything since. please pray for this child! on the home front, ds was feeling really depressed again last night--it was almost a repeat of last week when he didn't want to go on with life... he is on the way home right now for a 2-day visit...

Right now, one of my son's best friends left for Iraq this weekend. I understand how this affects you Sun. Tabby, I will surely prayer for this girl. That is really quite a lot of alcohol and I will prayer for no lasting effects.

Right now I am thinking, aren't you supposed to start puking if you are only 15 years old WAY before you reach the .450 level? I thought that was a built in protection for the young and stupid. Worked for me. That poor girl, and her poor parents. I hope she is okay.

right now, i still haven't heard how the poor girl is. i do know that probably 80% of those with a .450 alcohol level die. when i worked as a e.m.t., i recall only one person who was above a .40 who lived....and she was a .429.........and a heavy drinker all the time. a .450 for a teenager is very dangerous. right now, my son came home, wanted food from his favorite restaurant, ate it all, and then had a friend come to pick him up so they could go to friend's parents' house and visit. this is the friend who goes to school in san diego. i hope he gives ds realistic ideas on san diego. right now, i am thinking my son would see his friends more if he lived at home (or in his own place in our town) than if he actually moved to where they go to school...when kids are home, they have time to hang out, but when they are busy at school, free time is in short supply. meanwhile, hubby drew the short straw (meaning i insisted and begged and cajoled) and has to be the one to contact the landlady from hell about getting ds out of his one-year lease--which is all of 2 weeks old. sigh.....

Right Now I HATE this time of year. I've got 2 scaredy cat (big)dogs trying to hide from fireworks 24/7. Sasha even tried to climb into the closet. Last year I got some of that pet sedate from Petco, but it didn't work very well. Will the vet give me drugs??

Right now, agree, MGA. Sis has always gotten something for Athena from the vet to keep her calm at this time of year, though I can't recall off the top of my head what it is. I need to do the same thing, we've been dealing with fireworks nightly around here since the night one landed in my backyard. Saturday night there was some that were so loud every car alarm in the neighborhood went off and the windows shook. Poor Harvey is having fits.

Right Now, just finished 1st Day of VBS!! Yeah, dd had a good time, I've reworked schedules - it sure is hard for me to bite my tongue - thank goodness I got to do it my way!! Today they wanted to do it their way, I know they forget how young this group is 30 minutes for Music way too long, 30 min for snack, I didnt think so, but they felt they needed to try it that way... I nodded, but boy did I step in quick after today!! Its all arranged to maximize the fun for the kids!! Least amount of transitions for the youngest 3's!! Time to do the laundry!!

right now, it appears restaurant gal's dd will pull through. she was unconscious for 12 hours. seems she had 11 shots of something called mad dog 20/20, and 3 or 4 shots of vodka in one hour. the doctor told her mom she had enough alcohol to make 8 people drunk. from what i gather, dd went to a friend's house. the friend and some other kids watched movies. 'some boys' from san jose had alcohol from somewhere. not sure if they were old enough to purchase or where they got it (police are looking for the boys and the source of the alcohol. the vodka they stole from the home they were in). after the girl drank her 14 or 15 shots, she stood up and fell over. she began to vomit so the boys put her in a bedroom. when she began to choke, they turned her on her stomach. when the other kids who were not drinking came into the room, they took the girl, took all her clothes off, and put her in the bathtub. they then began to fill the tub with ice. so in addition to being almost dead from the alcohol (official count is .475), she had hypothermia from idiot kids packing her in ice. i don't know how long she will be in the hospital. she does not know where she is, but the doctors don't feel there will be permanent brain damage. hopefully, this will end the 'showing off drinking' she was doing. supposedly, she told the boys she could out-drink them. anyway, glad she is okay. i also hope she learned her lesson...several months ago, she stole her mother's car and ended up rolling it 3 times. she escaped with only bruises. i don't know how many wake-up calls this girl will need, but maybe the family can get counseling or something.
