1. Jake has his first of four dental appointments tomorrow. I hope it goes well.

2. His last day of school is Thursday, that will be weird. I have enjoyed having a couple hours a week for just me and Jenna.

3. I have also enjoyed having to take only one child out to run errands. I did all my shopping while he was at school.

4. I am going to make some fire truck cookie/cracker things out of oreos and graham crackers to take to the party on his last day. They are really cute.

5. War, hang in there!!

6. Spy, I can't believe your house is going along so fast! How exciting!

7. Marm, I have broken many toes, I definitely sympathize with you. I am always kicking things, to the point that my husband just laughs at me now.

8. Tomorrow is my birthday.

9. I am jealous of all the Chicago travellers, it sounds like it was an amazing trip!

10. Wow, I made it to 10, never thought that would happen!

1. I haven't posted here in quite some time, or at least it seems that way. I've been in quite a slump lately.

2. It's been nice being home this past week, pretty much doing nothing, but then I think of my bills and my heart starts racing, lol. It sucks being without a job, but I did what I felt I NEEDED to do, for me!

2.5 I sort of fell into a job opportunity today, and it's looking pretty promising. I don't want to say to much because I'm afraid of jinxing myself, but cross your fingers everyone and send good vibes my way!!! Hopefully I'll have good news to share by the end of this week!!!

1. I have the bestest son in the world. He cooked supper while I played here in the Clubhouse. We had pork chops, rice and Kraft Cheese&Macaroni.

2. I had to practice driving the Jeep and pulling the boat behind. I have to pull the boat to Dallas while DH pulls the travel trailer. I call him DH now but when I was practicing the 'D' didn't stand for Dear, it stood for one of those other 'D' words.

3. I had lunch with Azriel today. Yummy Mexican!!

3.5 I am crossing not only my finger but toes in hopes that all goes well for Froggie.


kady thinks the pain meds makes her chatty and a wee bit goofy too

1. I just unpacked my clothes from Chicago yesterday.
2. I am packing again for a trip to my Mom's 300 miles away.
3. Tomorrow is my Mom's birthday.
4. I don't like driving that far alone, but it is worth it to be with my mom on her birthday.

1. My right foot is really really swollen. I hate retaining water.

2. DH called me a bad parent today.

3. Because i refused to intervene between my 18yr old and 7 yr old fighting over whether dd could put her name on a can of pop before putting it in the refrigerator (he drinks all the cold soda, so when she wants one cold one for dinner, its not there!) and I was late for a meeting... I just let it go, dh had a bad day at work, and wanted to come to my meeting!

4. DD teacher lied to me. I hate that. What do you do when you catch someone in a lie? OF 5 girls in dd class dd was going to be in the same class w/ her best friend and have the teacher that is less structered, but extremely creative. I saw both of them on this teachers list, now they switched her... the 1st grade teacher said it was because of girlfriends moms request. I called the mom, after another mom told me the teacher is splitting up all the friends (it wouldnt be fair to spit my dd friend and not your dd friend!) I hate gossip. I hate being lied to. I hate that what isnt fair to one, suddenly makes it unfair to MY DD!! and yes I now realize this is a vent... I'm sorry.

5. DD is 7, and she asked me about "periods" today. Apparently a girl told the friends about it in the bathroom at school, and dd faints at the sight of her blood. I just told her it wasnt blood but "nourishment" for the baby... it looks like blood, and feels like blood, but it is "nourishment for the baby, and she asked about "sticking something inside you" and "panty liners" and is it blood like peeing, and well she had lots of questions - - she knows babies grow in mommy's tummies, but she hasnt asked how babies get there yet!! They sure grow up fast!!

1. I got to talk to every one of my grandchildren today! Yippee!
2. I gave my cat Juju another bath today and for the first time ever she turned on me and put some long claw nails into my arm. She's got hot spots and has to have medicine to relieve it.
3. Luckily she calmed down right away and has been loving on me since she licked herself the rest of the way dry.
4. My second oldest granddaughter told me that she's filled her journal that I bought for her at Christmas, so I will be looking for another one for her. My only grandson told me he played with a toad today.
5. My dd lives in Michigan and they have been without power and cable since Friday when a tornado blew through town and did quite a bit of damage including uprooting a lot of very old large trees, some of which landed on homes. They got power and cable back this afternoon. The kids didn't miss any school and they had graduation indoors over the weekend despite it all.
6. I still have a 'possum coming into my garage. This one is juvenile and not one bit scared of me.

1. I have been up all night. I think that was a very freakin' good shot that has me high as a kite.

2. I yawn and feel tired but when I lie down my mind goes into overdrive.

3. Oh well, at least I'm getting the laundry done. I have tons of it and need to get things washed so I can pack.

4. I am so glad I changed shifts around at work and fixed it so I would be off today.

5. I also have my grocery list made and a list of "don't forget" things that need to be put in the camper. The first trip of the summer is always the hardest to get ready for. Some things we load up and they just stay there all summer. We totally empty it and store it for winter.

6. I have been leading in Puttergirl's poll for AI for quite awhile. I am very nervous in thinking I'm gonna blow it in the final week. She has got a whopper of a ending question that could make me or break me.

7. I just want to let everyone know that I read each and every fact that gets posted in here. I may not make comments back but I do love reading them and feel so close to all of you that post in here. Jbean got onto me for not posting much in here, so I've been trying to do better. Love ya Sis!!

7.5 Gracie, I can sympathize with GracieJujuCat. I was kinda touchy myself when I was having hot spots.

1. I think that my house is sold!!! I meet with the realtor this morning. HE is offering to buy my house to use as an office. Hope the $$$$ will be ok!

2. Today is the last day of summer pre-session. I am getting pizza for my class, as they have to take a final over the lunch hour. Our class runs from 11-1:30, so I usually let them snack during class.

3. I was so excited about the pending offer on my house that I promptly fell asleep (with the computer on me) and didn't get any papers graded last night. I'll get to it before class. Maybe it wasn't excitement, but stress relief.

4. My 25th class reunion is tomorrow and Saturday in Beardstown, Illinois and I can't believe that I am this old (or THIS FAT!). I'm having trouble packing for this trip, as my hundreds of cute shoes will have to stay home while I wear something big and clunky that my broken toe can fit into.

5. I am looking forward to house hunting in Carbondale. My realtor has a great southern drawl and I'm sure that I will pick it up! There are lots of houses for sale and hopefully the ones with pools are not "dogs".

6. It will be nice to see my parents, brother, niece and nephew. My brother's family just got one of my pianos. The six-year- old says that she can play lots of songs and Grandma is helping her. The four-year-old says that he can play "Twinkle twinkle little star" and "Doodle doodle doodle doo" Hmmmm I don't know that last one, but he was excited!

7. Broken toe is healing but walking on the side of my foot is causing other problems with muscles and my arch. I also look incredibly silly hobbling along. At least the searing pain is mostly gone!

8. Blessed Memorial Day, everyone.

Update: The house is sold and I get the 21 page contract this afternoon....not the price I wanted but close and I don't have to fix the chimney. But it's done, and done fast and only contingent on him getting a sign for the real estate office and financing.

We are probably closing about July 13th....time to call the movers!

1. Congrats, Marm! Great news!

2. Jake had his first dental appt. yesterday and it went really well. They worked on two teeth and he told them that was enough! It was easy work yesterday though, so there were no problems. One down, three to go.

3. I had a really good birthday yesterday.

4. We had a quiet day at home and then my dh and Jake cooked me dinner. DH bought things that Jake could serve easily and he did it all by himself. It was so sweet.

5. Today was Jake's last day of school and we had a little party at school. The kids were really wound up, but it was fun.

6. I am excited for Jake to go to a different preschool next year.

7. His teacher gave me a "certificate" for being helpful all year. She said I was the only one that went on all the field trips and helped whenever she needed it.

8. Jenna ran around at the party and ate the oreos and chips off of everyone's plates and she crashed about 3 minutes after we got in the car.

9. Jake is addicted to watching his Minnie and Mickey movie, which is fine, but it is a Christmas Carol thing and I am soooo tired of hearing those songs!!!!!

9. my department is undergoing quite a few changes. we are doing something called the 5S program. it is basically organization and cleaning. our dept already looks 100% better and we have just started.

1. I just found out that I have to travel back to New York next week. Sigh...

2. One of the things I'm doing in a two-day non-stop business whirlwind is going to the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, though, so that should be fun.
