1. Jbeanie, I saw Mamma Mia last year in Vegas with Zmom, Lkunkel and Pcakes and we loved it!! 2. Z and I bought the cd they sold there which has all the songs and some of the dialog.. GREAT CD!! 3. We wore feather boas! I had read a review that said "bring your feather boa", so Pcakes got us all gorgeous boas and that has lead to feather boas showing up at several subsequent gatherings. 4. Feather boas also are useful when performing karaoke. 5. LA area has now has TEN INCHES more rain this season than SEATTLE. 6. Lovely, lucky break in the rain yesterday when I went to In n Out Burger w/Zmom.. 7. And the rain continues today. 8. New roof on my bldg still holding strong 9. Hoping for a non-rainy morning tomorrow as I get to meet LUCY, her son and his cousin in Long Beach, where yesterday they had flooding and a water-spout that came on land.

1. I just got home from Walmart. I spent over 4 hours in the store. I was doing alot of looking so Thank God, I only spent an average of 40 dollars per hour. 2. I am so jealous that Sea gets to meet Lucy. Put me on the hug giving list. 3. Matthew is at Grandma's house. It is quiet around here. But I did get a chance to watch some episodes of OZ, Six Feet Under and Sopranos on HBO on demand.

1. I am fending off the achy flu stuff...not to be confused with the puking your guts out (in the bushes?) flu. Still in the jammies. But my research paper is going well and my SIMS are really plugging along. 2. Does "THE SIMS" ever end? 3. I have a roast beef, carrots, onions and mushrooms in the crockpot. It smells like it is ready to eat! YUM! Happy Sunday, everyone! 4.Ok, another one....I am NOT feeling Lutheran guilt for skipping church this morning!

1. I will compile list of hugs, but as I told Zmom, I will first see if Lucy is a "hugger". 2. Lazy, lazy day! intermittent rain.. hard rain right now! 3. Project Runway marathon, but I'm "cheating" by using the DVR, so I can ride behind but ff thru commercials. 4. Having said extra time, Critter and I returned to bed and took a rather long nap, with a purring, sleeping kitty jammed up next to me, I just drift offfffff... 5. Humming "Thank You For the Music" from Mamma Mia...

1. wouldn't you know that i went 2 places and looked for abba cds, and both places were either sold out or out of stock! ack! i guess since the musical has been here all week, everyone had the same idea. 2. i don't recommend drinking beer with chicken fettucini....gag, doesn't compliment it AT ALL! 3. but that was the only cold beverage i had besides orange juice....neither of those are really a good choice for chicken fettucini. 4. i love the healthy choice and smart ones meals. they really do not taste like "diet" foods. 5. i'm getting ready to make a diet soda cake. these are also very good. i tried butter pecan last week....it was about too rich. i will stick with plain ol' chocolate from now on. 6. i've had a sinus headache all day. i hate them!

1. Anyone wanting to be on the Hugs for Lucy List visit my folder.. list is being compiled there. 2. My mom was the loved beer (so much that in her last years she drank no alcohol, no calorie beer just to have beer! But she preferred Coke with Pizza, so you just never know! 3. BOO on Sinus headaches. 4. ABBA Gold is the ultimate, I suppose, but the cd we got at the performance is a great memory. 5. I've printed out directions from breakfast to the cruise ship; from the cruise ship to the place where the Starting Over Coaches will be tomorrow.. hopefully no flood, waterspout, tornado, etc., will keep me from my appointed rounds. 6. Critter went from our upstairs nap to a new nap in her "tent". 7. New Season of The "L" Word tonight!!!

1. I am a "hugger"...can hardly wait to give and receive them tomorrow. 2. We have to get up really early tomorrow to make our flight to Long Beach. 3. Seamonkey, you're very kind to brave the storm and meet us for breakfast and drive us to the ship. 4. The running joke at our house is that we're going to meet "a Seamonkey". 5. Little do they know what a wonderful "Seamonkey" you really are! 6. My niece talked me into packing my stuff into a carry-on suitcase. 7. I hope my suitcase doesn't explode. 8. Hope everyone has a good President's week.

1. When I turned out the light it was raining. 2. At 2am it was raining. 3. At 3am it was raining. 4. At 4am I thought it had slacked off and considered going downstairs, outside to the garage to pull stuff out of the trunk, but then it started raining hard. 5. At 5am it was raining; I started watching the Project Runway reunion show and flipping to weather and traffic news during commercials. 6. At 6am it was raining. 7. At 6:20am American says Lucy's flight is in the air!! 8. I'm still in bed, but semi-awake, so it seems. 9. Sadly, a man was killed as he slept in Tujunga (or somewhere like that) by a fast mudslide and a 16 year old girl perished in a rock/mudslide in Silverado Canyon this morning) Lots of flooding, some houses lost as they slide. I plan to be very careful out there!

1. I feel like I've been away from here forever. 2. I've spent the last 4 days in bed with the flu. 3. I don't think I've ever had it that bad. 4. All I could do was get up to go to the restroom and that was hard. 5. I had big plans for my extended weekend, and it all got scrapped. 6. Everyone kept telling me to go to the doctor. 7. How could I when it hurt to move? 8. I had a restful night last night. 9. So I decided to come to work today. 10. Who's bright idea was this?

1. back to work today. (digging desk out - gads) 2. feeling better today - yay antibiotics/antivirals. 3. I hit the 90 lb mark in my weight loss journey last night. Wasn't expecting it. Feel like I'm walking on air right now. (I think that equals 6th grade me at this point - my report cards have my height/weigh through 4th grade then we changed districts and they didn't track it anymore - which rather bums me out now)

1. In work today, luckily feeling better. Fought my hundredth cold/sore throat/bronchitis of the year. 2. I have been busy shopping - picking out stuff for the new apartment (of course I still will not be back till May or June) grrrrrr 3. I cannot believe the Red Cross fundraiser is so close. Less than 2 weeks. I am so excited. It will be great, and we will get a lot of money for the Red Cross. 4. I realized that this is something I am very good at. The Red Cross asked me to join their Board of Directors. I could not do that full time. But, when I retire (when I am 80 probably LOL), I will do that.

1. I got my feelings hurt at work today and can't seem to stop crying. 2. It seems like people treat me like crap for no reason. 3. Some days I wonder why I even bother..then I look at my son and know why. 4. I gotta get myself together cause I need to pick my son up at school and I don't want him to know I've been crying. 5. We need to get stuff for his Social Studies project. His topic is acedemic cheating. 6. Then I need to go pick up the slip that Azriel is wearing under her wedding dress and get it mailed to Singapore. 7. I'll just be glad when this day is over.

1. ((Kady)) 2. Last night I posted for the first time in forever, but then the board ate it all up! 3. In short, my kids have been non-stop sick for what seems like forever, if it wasn't one bodily function it was another. But they are finally on the mend, thank goodness. Poor sweethearts. 4. My husband ended up with the yucky stomach stuff too, we were supposed to have a date day/night last weekend, but had to cut it short since he wasn't feeling well. 5. We did go see the movie Hitch though and I thought it was hilarious. Will Smith looked hot and he is so funny. Love his facial expressions. 6. One of my best friends from college and her two little boys (ages 3 and 4) came over to play, there were in town visiting her parents. It was fun to see them since we only get to get together a couple times a year. The kids had a great time playing together. 7. I really should be doing something productive since I just put Jenna down for a nap and this is my time to get stuff done, but I feel like vegetating. 8. Happy Tuesday Factoiders!

1. Dang it, nine facts! Why am I never here for one or two? 2. Kady, I’ve got a bottle of wine and a family size Hershey bar with your name on it for you. Nothing else matters, as long as you’ve got chocolate and wine. 3. Right now, I’m staring out my window at work, watching the world go by. 4. I just finished my third latte of the day, and thanks to espresso machine in the office, I think I’m gonna go back for a fourth. 5. It’s only Tuesday, and I wish it was Friday. 6. I also wish I’d done all my grocery shopping on the weekend so I didn’t have to a)think all day about what to have for dinner tonight, and b)stop at the @#$% store on my way home to buy it. 7. The office dog is growling at me. 8. It’s growled at me every day for three blasted weeks. 9. Get used to it, dog… I don’t like being here any more than you like having me here, but we’re both just gonna have to suck it up and be friends. OK? OK.

1. I actually had TWO hours in my office to do work and NOT be in class or in interviews or whatever. 2. I think it helped that I had scheduled time for my "annual" checkup for today. The Dr.'s office called this morning to remind me that my appt is for TOMORROW! WHAT???? No can do, we are interviewing for 2.5 hours tomorrow. 3. Got rescheduled for the beginning of April. 4. DON"T know what I would do if I were really sick. You have to book the Dr. two months in advance. SHEESH. I asked "What if you are really sick?" they said they have four appointments per day for "I'm sick" people. 5. NOT prepared for my grad class tonight. We are talking about aesthetics in research BLECH!!!! NOT my favorite topic. 6. My cat has a cut on her cheek. It's not bleeding anymore, but her fur is matted. Wonder what she got into. 7. Ellie is being a real baby about being outside. She loves to explore the house. I shouldn't have let her in. I need CatNanny911! NO, Ellie, you can't come in....go to your naughty step! LOL 8. There are workers doing things with the lights and thermostats. I almost knocked one off of a ladder. YIKES 9. Had time to send lots of emails today. WHEW! Still need to send an invoice for a teacher inservice I'm doing in March. 10. Gotta teach until 7 tonight. BLECH! I will be ready to hit the hay for sure when I get home. At least I feel a little better tonight.

1. {{{Kady}}} Lemme at 'em, lemmee at 'em! 2. Loving American Idol--can't wait for 8 pm tonight. (I called in votes for three different guys last night!) Tonight it's the gals. 3. Pursued resolution of hospital and lab billing/claims issues over the phone ALL DAY today. We will see next month how successful I was. (Two are bills from 8/04, when Ed had ER care. I have been at it that long on these two.) 4. Made myself a bowl of popcorn today to munch on while on hold for EVERY call. Shoulda poured myself a glass of wine. 5. I let Herc out from the patio as usual to take a quick pee. Now we have about 5-6 inches of snow and Herc decided to run!! 6. He took off, disappeared from sight, but I kept the faith. I whistled and called and in a minute or two ran back to me, the monster! 7. Just lucky he didn't spot another dog, a cat or a mailman! 8. My car's battery is dead again! 9. Ed won't have time to deal with it til he gets back from Baltimore. 10. Wish my dh a safe flight to Baltimore tomorrow morning and a successful interview with the company trying to lure him away from CT. He REALLY wants the job. So I am wanting it, too.
