1. Gingerpooh, I sure hope you'll be feeling better soon! 2. I went into work this morning to meet with the students volunteers who take the newborn baby pictures on Sundays. What a special group of young ladies!! The meeting was great but the best part was that I got to hold a few newborns and I'm telling ya....I can HARDLY wait to be a grandma someday!! (or an Auntie to Spy and Flyboy's kidlets...hee-hee!!) 3. Egbob and I saw a movie this afternoon...Friday Night Lights. Good movie! 4. I also went and got my haircut very, very short and I'm liking it alot!

1. I should be going to bed now. I've got a load of laundry in the dryer that I'm waiting on which should be done in a few minutes. 2. I have not volunteered in the kids classes for two weeks. Hoping to get back to it this week. Keep your fingers crossed nothing comes up this week too! 3. Mom had Caleb come over today and help her with yardwork. He was able to collect all the leaves for his science project at her house though, so that was good. We've got them shoved in a book for now pressing them. Seems like a strange project to me, we got the paper for it Friday. All it says to do is collect the leaves, press/dry them, and glue them on a paper. Nothing about writing what kind of trees or bushes they come from, or even listing what kind they are. 4. The driver side window on my car fell off it's track today. Or something, lol. Damn thing won't roll up at all. Darren is pretty sure he can fix it but he's going to have to tear the door apart to do it. LOL, I love my car. 5. I bought myself some new slippers yesterday. They are horribly ugly, lol. They look like rainbow colored dusters. Everytime I catch a glimpse of them they scare the hell out of me, lol!

1. I had a wonderful weekend. 2. The weather was BEAUTIFUL! 3. I'm hungry. 4. It is a faculty workday (no students) so I'll probably go out to lunch. 5. I really, really had a good weekend! 6. I love it when I feel content and everything feels like it is going to be okay!

1. My boss is back in the office this week - yippee, just kidding! 2. I totally worked all weekend. I was supposed to be relaxing, but it's okay because I got a lot done. 3. My nephew spends every weekend with us but this weekend he had bronchitis so he stayed with his mother. 4. His mother, is my sister but we don't get along so I refer to her as "his mother". 5. It's okay, because she refers to me with words I'm not allowed to type, not nice at all. 6. My nephew, son and I went to 6 Flags a couple of weeks ago. We had a great time! This picture is of my son and the dolphin. 7.

1. Hi to all my facts friends! I missed you! 2. My cousin's wedding was a blast!!! I danced my butt off and I can only hope that MY wedding will be as much fun. 3. The reception ended early in the day, so some of the hard core partiers wanted to hit some of the local bars afterwards and I, of course, went along for the ride. 4. My cousin and her new hubby even made an appearance. We danced our butts off some more and as my fiance' would say "We owned the place!" . 5. My cousin has some of the coolest friends and we exchanged numbers with alot of people and hope to hang-out with most of them some time in the near future. 6. Yesterday was a lazy day. I don't think my butt left the couch unless I needed food or use the potty, lol. 7. I downloaded all my pics already. Hopefully if my computer cooperates I can post some in my folder later today. 8. Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!

1. I have said it before and I will say it again, I believe my daughter was put on this earth to give me grey hair. 2. Saturday evening, about 20 mintues before I was getting ready to leave to go to a Mom's Night Out party, Jenna stuck half a peanut up her nose. 3. We tried our darndest to get it out, but nothing worked, it was shoved up to high. 4. My husband took her to the emergency room, while I stayed home with Jake. 5. About an hour and a half later they came home after having the peanut suctioned out of her nose. 6. The nurses at the emergency room gave Jenna a new stuffed bear that we aptly named "Peanut". 7. I then left to go to my party, 2 hours late and had a nice glass of wine! 8. It was the first Mom's Night Out function that I have been able to attend with my mom's group, I had organized it so I was pretty sad that I was maybe going to miss it. Even thought I got there two hours late, it was still a lot of fun! 9. Last night, I kid you not, I found a new grey hair.

1. Jewels, we had that kind of trauma when my ds was little. 2. He actually stuck a Don't Spill The Beans bean up his nose. 3. It took a while but I was able to get it out with tweezers. 4. It was quite an ordeal. 5. Mom's night out sounds so good about now! 6. Nic, your son is quite the cutie! 7. I haven't been to Marine World in ages. 8. My dd went with her boyfriend but it was at night and they had no animal shows going on. 9. She said she missed the whales and dolphins. 10. I actually was picked for the whale show to be spit on by the whale. It was one of the thrills of my life! I loved it!

1. My son stuck small Lego pieces up his nose when he was younger. As soon as I grabbed the tweezers and started to go for it ... he panicked and blew the pieces out! He's never done it again!

1. We tried tweezers quite a few times and a suction ball, but then she started getting really irritated with us and wouldn't let my husband go anywhere near her! She is only 22 months old and just wouldn't sit still at all! 2. The peanut must have been tickling her because she must have sneezed 27 times, poor thing. The dumb peanut never budged even with all the sneezing, that's when we decided we better take her to the emergency room.

1. If she is only 22 months old and she's already giving you grey hair, you will be completely grey by the time she starts school! 2. The bean was about the only thing that my son ever did but my daughter on the other hand...... 3. I used to lovingly call her the "Bad Seed"

1) My daughter stuck a popcorn kernel in her ear when she was three. (last year) 2)It was a nightmare getting it out,we were just about to go to the Er when I finally managed to get it out. 3)I remember as a kid,my neighbor friend stuck a penny up his nose. He had to go to the Er too. 4)It's too bad noses and ears aren't more handy for carrying around stuff.

1. I never had grey hair until my daughter came along. 2. My son never did anything like this, he was a complete angel...most of the time. 3. Jenna has been to the emergency room twice already, Jake has never been there. 4. I love my kids to death, don't get me wrong, but Jenna is soooo different than what I am used to dealing with. 5. How could you not love a sweet child like this?

1. She is so cute! 2. You gotta watch out for that angel look. 3. My dd was just like that. 4. I do have to say that my dd is almost 19 and one of the neatest people that I know. 5. I appreciate her gumption now. 6. There were just those times.....

1. You folks brighten up my day! This pics of the kids are so cute and I love hearing about "what got stuck where"....My day has been going from bad to worse to OMG horrible to worse than horrible! 2. At this rate I will not survive teaching my grad class tonight. I just want to curl up in a ball and sleep....maybe life's shit will go away. But then again, maybe not. 3. This is a much needed 10 minute break in a 14 hour day. 4. Doesn't help that it's rainy and gloomy. Matches my mood. 5. The trees, however, are starting to get to color, and I have a great view out my window! 6. I need to either pull two or three all-nighters in a row OR lock myself in a secluded place in order to get all of my work done! LOL....those pesky students, always wantin' somethin'. 7. Half of my students did not show up today...and that's for all the classes. What do they think it is, a holiday? LOL!

1. OMG jewels! she is adorable! 2. suprisingly, i never shoved anything up my nose or ears that didn't come out. neither did either of my sisters. 3. it is COLD and rainy here! like 59 degrees F. it has rained continually since yesterday. we needed the rain, but enough is enough, and it supposed to rain just about all week. 4. goofy weather. we go from 80 degrees one week to 60 the next. oh well, at least there's no snow. 5. i am gonna go set in the sauna for a little bit. that should get my butt warmed up! 6. first i have to get off the couch and change clothes, though..... 7. alright, alright, i'm going....

1. Hi Everyone!!! 2. I had a bad day. 3. Someone hit my car in the parking lot today and drove away. 4. I had to deal with my insurance company...I bet they hate me! lol 5. I had a dream last night about my grandma who died about a year ago. I talked to my mom today and she told me she had a similar dream. Weird. 6. I am babysitting my niece right now who is beginning to talk. When she says my name, it sounds like an obscene word! lol. 7. She is saying no to me a lot. And hitting/scratching me! Thank god she is asleep. I don't think I can ever be a parent. 8. Ok I am out of facts...Have a good day everyone!!

1. Everybody at TVCH has great looking kids. 2. I'm saddened by Christopher Reeves death. 3. I edited what I was going to post because I decided better of it. 4. I by no means, am a hack and I plan to stay that way 5. If there were a few that did read what I had posted...take it for what it's worth. 6. I can't wait for the election to be over with...either way, we'll be done hearing about it for a few years. 7. I haven't a clue who's gonna win it. 8. There are nearly 300 million people in the United States...and these two are the best we can come up with. 9. I feel I am voting for the lesser of two evils.

1. I'm back from L.A. (again. I feel like I say this every week LOL) 2. My dog had a mishap at the farm when we were gone -- he pulled out one of his toenails from the nail bed. He's completely favoring himself ... little pathetic boy. 3. I just booked my flight back to the U.S. for the Presidential election. No absentee ballot for me. 4. I also don't know who will win the election, but I know who I'm voting for and there's no way I'm not putting in my vote this year. As long as I still have a vote in the U.S., I'm doing it. 5. I just learned that my partner will be away again this year ... for the second year in a row ... for our second wedding anniversary. 6. To make matters worse, he will be, on our anniversary, in the country in which we got married. Again. And I'll be working here in Canada. Again. 7. I feel very disconnected from TVCH these days. 8. I sometimes think I'm not "touchy-feely" enough for TVCH. 9. LL Bean has the best fleece cuff slippers. As someone who doesn't usually wear or like slippers, I highly recommend them. Mine are red. 10. I am completely exhausted and have been this way since early August.

1. I am not very touchy-feely, but I fit in at TVCH by making up for it by being weird.

1. I'm very touchy-feely so I can't let Juju call herself "weird". There-there Juju....you're not weird....you're just Juju. 2. Since the new job, I haven't been able to post as often as I used too and so I feel very disconnected to the board these days. 3. But since I'm the touchy-feely type, I just know that my TVCH pals will continue to check in on me and let me feel the love....ahhhhhhhh....
