1. Spy....how about a honeymoon in Colorado...close but not the same kind of scenery. I'm sure that the resorts there would be fabulous. The Poconos really does do lots of honeymoon business, but it just reminds me of the summer camp from "Dirty Dancing" (which, by the way, was filmed at Mountain Lake, VA and is very lovely!) 2. I ate lunch yesterday out in the Japanese garden by the Koi pond. It is right outside my office and very lovely. 3. The elderly lady is back again today, and this time she is sanding the walls. I wish that I would have known that. SIGH. My papers, desk and piano are covered with dust. The wall, however, is looking good! 4. The harpsichord (7foot long) will be coming next week. The piano technician didn't want to move it while she was working on the wall. Harpsichords are finicky instruments. 5. Threw out a ton of trash this morning. Lots and lots of boxes! Little by little, I'm getting the clutter under control and getting the house unpacked!

5.5 Spy - after I wrote my 7.5 post last night I started to think the same thing, maybe I've been to the Poconos too much , and am too used to seeing it. Honestly, if you wanted a winter honeymoon with lots of snow, I guess the Poconos would be a great place. But on the other hand, I will have to agree with Marm - the Poconos gets A LOT of honeymoon business! It's a very busy, tourist-y place. Good luck in your honeymoon planning...wherever you decide to go!

1. It's been raining all day. 2. It's supposed to rain again all day tomorrow. 3. I'm enjoying my time off from work. 4. The swelling in my ankle has gone down quite a bit, but it's still very sore. 5. I'm caught up on all my tv shows and magazines. 6. My doctor's excuse was only good for two days so I have to go in tomorrow.

1. My Jeep's battery died on me in a parking lot today. 2. Thank goodness I was really close to where my DH works. 3. He was able to come jump me off and let me follow him to work and get his truck so I could finish my errands. 4. Meanwhile him and a buddy was able to go get a new battery and put it in while they were both still on the clock. 5. It was a cool morning but it was hot while I was waiting in that parking lot. Geesh...it was a long 10 minutes. LOL 6. The orthodondist says Matthew is doing well and could possibly get his braces off early. 7. I am so glad to be off tomorrow, I have tons of laundry to do. Sometimes I really regret letting my housekeeper go. Me and my smart idea to save money. 8. Oh yeah...got my hair cut and permed. It is kinda short and kinda cute. But the best news was Angela didn't see any gray hairs. WhooHoo!!

pssst Spy, we did our honeymoon 1. in Jamaica at an all in clusive in the summer - very very reasonable rates - including airfare - it was cheaper than staying in a hotel in IN! 2. we did a honeymoon at Macinac Island in MI - not the Grand hotel, but we rented a 'condo' type room, it had a kitchenette and whirlpool tub, no phones, no cars, totally fun, laid back, focus on us - it was wonderful!!

1. Crud, 10 again!....I think that GAL transferred her tiredness to me today. 2. The fumes in my office were REALLY getting to me. I didn't realize it until I went to the other building to microwave my lunch. Had to finish up the day working in the green room (gathering room) behind the stage. 3. Met a couple of men professors who didn't seem too weird. 4. Can't wait for Survivor! 5. I'm about ready to buy purple paint just so I can have the color that I want for my office. 6. I really don't want to get up and ready this morning. 7. Went to a choir rehearsal last night. I'm not sure about continuing....SIGH! 8. I am playing at a church in two weeks, and the pressure is on, since it is the first time that I've played since I moved, and EVERYONE is talking about "who is she" "does she play well" etc. SHEESH! 9. My grad assistant is not the sharpest crayon in the pack, but he works hard and is willing to learn new things. 10. The trash man didn't come yesterday and I have a MOUNTAIN of packing boxes and trash at the end of my driveway. I'm hoping that they are just delayed a day because of Labor Day....the neighborhood is looking a little "trashy"!

1. I just told Egbob that I complete him......he's still laughing as I type this....what's that all about? 2. I'm a dedicated mom. Why? you ask. Well, it's because DS#2 calls me at 7pm and say's "Momma! I've got my DJ radio spot back this semester and I'll be on....starting tonight!" And so here I sit...in front of my PC, listening to heavy metal rock music in order to catch the few seconds of DS#2 between sets as he does his DJ stuff for his college radio station. 3. So okay, it's not that bad sitting in front of my PC listening to heavy metal rock music and DS#2....I get to come to the board and catch up on the threads...yay!

1. Eggie...you are a great Mom. I would do the same for my baby too!! 2. We got our first progress report from the 7th grade.....all A's. Matthew is so smart just like his Mommy. LOL 3. I am working tomorrow. Normally I am off on Saturday's but I scheduled myself on purpose. Frankly because I am tired of spending my Saturdays with my DH. When he is bored, he is a pain to be around. 4. I am sad. I've had a salesman for almost 20 years(ever since I got into the family biz) change positions within the company. I am gonna miss him.

1. I am so excited. 2. When I was in high school and working I met a girl at work the same age as me. The two of us got to be good friends, always hanging out together and sitting around giggling for hours on end. 3. We both got married around the same time and our kids are the same ages. This was a friend who always knew exactly what I was going through because she was going through the same things at the same times. Even both of our daughters, who are 2 weeks apart in age, were diagnosed within days of each other as having asthma. 4. A couple years ago her family moved out of town. We'd see each other once in a great while when she comes home to visit her mom, but haven't had the chance to stay in contact as much as I'd like. 5. Mom just called. She had gone to the grocery store and when she came out she saw a woman with a new baby. Said she was so busy checking the baby out she didn't pay much attention to the woman until she said something to her. Guess who's moved back to town! She told mom her plans for today was to drop the baby off at her mom's, go to work, and on her way home stop by here. I've been going through excitement and scrubbing the house since I talked to mom, lol. 5.5 Mom did tell her we were going out of town tomorrow so she said she may wait to come by until next week. I'm just so excited I can't stand it. I've missed having her around and knowing I could pick up the phone and say hey, kids are driving me batty, wanna go get dinner?

1. I got up this morning at 4am to make triple layer brownies for our department picnic. I thought that I was sick from the fumes in my office....felt like a truck ran over me and vomitted three times (I know, I know....too much info!). Dragged my sorry butt into work to teach my 9am and my grad student asked if I actually ate the mayo based salad I brought yesterday. BINGO! Food poisoning! Dang it, and I know better, as I used to work in a kitchen. Went home to sleep it off, and to the eye Dr. this afternoon (everything is OK!) and then to the dept. picnic. The brownies were a HUGE hit. I think that I am the favorite new faculty cook. So it was kind of a bizarre day at Marmville. PS I can't find my cat tonight, but there was a gray and white one running away from me. What's up with that!??!

1. I broke down and got a cage for my new puppy Maggie. I tried leaving her in the kitchen when I went to work but she climbed over the baby gates. We call her our escape artist. 2. I'm feeling a little guilty about having to keep her in a cage during the day. But I've heard that a lot of people do this and that the puppy doesn't suffer as much as the owner
. Schoolmarm - I hope you find your cat.

1. I am experimenting by posting other people's photos in my folder...I know, I'm such a coward. 2. Wondering if Schoolmarm would consider posting her hit triple layer brownies in the cooking corner... 3. Missed not spending more time at the Clubhouse today...I think I'm addicted. Hope that all pet troubles are resolved without too much guilt or anxiety...

Marmville - LOL Vacanick, I'm sure you'll find "crating" a dog is much more humane - not at all a prison... think of the tiny dog, and think of the huge space, the crate becomes a comfy, warm fuzzy space, if you make it loving, they feel the love!! I am a convert!! My mom is out of ICU!!

1. I'm sorry to hear your mom is ill. But I'm glad to hear that she is out of ICU. 2. Thank you for words of encouragement about crating my puppy Maggie. 3. She is my first dog and I have a lot to learn. I feel like a new mom all over again. 4. I want what's best for her and will make her crate as comfy as possible. Actually as I sit typing this she is sleeping in her crate with the door open.
