1. I just came in from working outside in my rose beds. It is a beautiful day out today, a little breezy, but nothing like it has been. 2. My daffodils are blooming, they are such cute flowers. 3. My camellia tree is in bloom too. I love that tree. I have never seen a camellia in tree form as big as this one. If we do our addition it is going to have to be moved, I hope it survives. We actually have two of them, side by side, but the other one blooms later and is a different kind. It has huge flowers, they are gorgeous. 4. I love spring and today is (minus the wind) the perfect spring day.

1. i once saw elton john and billy joel in concert...the face 2 face tour in april 2001. talk about 2 amazing performers! shockingly, elton is the more quiet/reserved of the 2. 2. i guess i will be keeping my thicker bangs with my hair growing out....since i just trimmed them and all. i feel like i look younger with them. 3. i tried something called cheese fudge today. it is OMG good! it tastes and looks like fudge, but it is cheese. we decided that it was probably worth a lot more points than are allowed in a day. lol. it was good, though. 4. tonight is crazy tv night...oh boy. and i read that at the beginning of march, american dreams will also be on wednesday nights at 7! ACK! it was the only sunday show i watched! 5. spy, that microderm abrasion stuff sounds cool...i bet it's oh my heck expensive. happy humpday!

1. I am glad Jewels had such a pretty day. It was cold and rainy here. 2. I am ready for AI. I hope I do well in Puttergirls game. 3. I hope my son learned a lesson about procrastinating. His Social Studies project report was due today and he was still working on it at bedtime last night. 4. I was up early this morning proof-reading so he could print it. That made for a grumpy Mommy. A grumpy Mommy is no fun. 5. Yea!!....I hear hubby in there running the vaccumn. 6. Well yesterday I was really sad cause I felt hurt. The saddness has gone away. I am now more pissed than sad. I'm just glad that feeling of being hopeless is gone. It scares the hell out of me when I get like that.

1. Went to the doc with DH today. He has full-blown Type 2 diabetes and has to get a glucometer and test his blood twice a day and take a script. At least no insulin for now. 2. After that we went out to eat! LOL 3. Then we went to Circuit City and got a gift for his sister's youngest child's birthday and I got a book for me. 4. Then we went to his sister's house and stayed there for a while. 5. We got home around 8:20 so I missed the first part of Lost. ACK! 6. Hubby went to work at 9PM tonight instead of his usual 5:30PM. 7. Tomorrow I have to clean out the kitchen of bad foods and this weekend we have to shop for new foods. This is going to be tough, but so worth it to keep my honey healthy.

1. Veggies, veggies, veggie! (for Mr. Twinks....no refined sugar, flour and little salt!) 2. I slept most of the afternoon. I missed interviewing five choir directors on the phone and I'm on the committee. Ooops! 3. Chicken noodle soup for supper sounded like a good idea. I only ate half of it. 4. I've lost 3 pounds on the "I'm sick" diet. SHHEEESSHH! 5. It has been alternating between snow and sleet all day today. I thought that spring was here, but I was wrong! 6. Ellie is happy in the garage. She was meowing/howling outside for a while, but I just rolled over. I think that she can hear the TV and she knows that if the TV is on, I'm home. 7. I am hoping that I feel better tomorrow. I have no plans for my birthday, and my brothers will probably forget to call. My folks are somewhere in Texas on a bus tour. 8. I will be happy at home with Survivor and The Apprentice and TVCH!

1. Happy Birthday SchoolMarm! I hope you are better on your day! 2. Twinkle = I am so sorry to hear about your hubby. I know that you will take good care of him. 3. I have been sick this week. I stayed home today and slept most of the day. Now I can not go to sleep. 4. I have not eaten much this week and now I am so hungry! Another reason I can not sleep. I do not want to eat this late at night. 5. DH goes to Vegas tomorrow to do a show. We are praying that it goes very well. 6. Sage = please stay around. I always enjoy your posts and I am happy for you and Bob. 7. DD and I went to Atlanta, GA last week to the CHA show (Craft and Hobby Association). We had a great time. 8. I spent lots and lots of money for the store. Now wondering how to pay. Fortunately, the products are coming in at all different times. Gearing up for the Summer! 9. While we were gone, I had one of the walls pushed 6 ft.back giving us alot more room. It is a challenge every time an order comes in where to put all the merchandise.

1. The birthday girl will do TEN!!! 2. There is a very beautiful dusting of snow everywhere this morning! I have a tree with red berries and another evergreen tree just outside my window and they are absolutely stunning with the dusting of snow. 3. I only have to be at work from 10-2 today. Right now, I think I am going to try it. 4. Just read in the contract that I get FORTY-THREE sick days per year....but they don't accumulate. There are 7.5 that DO accumulate. I guess that the 43 sick days are in case you have surgery or a baby or get really sick. This is fewer accumulating days than other jobs that I've had, but I think it is more than fair. 5. Ellie is mewing outside. Nope, not outside...she must be under the house in the crawlspace. I'm so glad that she isn't afraid of me anymore. 6. My favorite color is purple. 7. My birthstone is the amethyst and I have two pretty amethyst rings that I always wear. (Well, I've gained weight and I can't get them off right now! LOL) 8. I don't feel like puking today, and the chicken soup and crackers have stayed down. YIPPEE! I still have a headache/earache and feel achy. 9. I can't believe that I will be on an airplane to Munich in 15 days....and I can't believe all that I have to do in those 15 days before I go! 10. I am looking forward to Survivor and the Apprentice tonight. Have a great day, everyone!

1. Happy Birthday Schoolmarm! 2. Yesterday I was out with the 24 hr flu 3. I have only had the flu twice in my life including yesterday. 4. Yesterday's flu was 100 times easier than the first time I got it a couple of years ago. 5. Hudson(my dog) is home from the vet hospital, he had pancreatiis(sp) and lost 15 lbs(scary!) 6. Today is another sunny day in Oregon! 7. I wish I was home cleaning house. 8. I guess I could clean the company fridge out but probably won't.

1. Happy Bday Marm!! 2. Get well all you sickos!! 3. I am...AT MY BF'S PLACE!!! Woo hoo!! 4. I am waiting for him to wake up, and his keyboard is so loud, yet he sleeps right through it. **sigh** 5. I met two British dudes on the bus to the ferry, and we hung out at the McDonald's for an hour waiting for the next bus, then hung out on the ferry too, then took the bus AFTER the ferry ride. They were doing that young and traveling thing that I could never do. Nice to have people to talk to on a 6 hour journey. 6. I lugged this HUGE bag to my class yesterday, because I BARELY had enough time to bus home, pick up my bag, and bus to the ferry. So I didn't want to take chances, so I brought this HUGE bag with me to class. Turns out my class let out early, and I TOTALLY would have had time to get home to pick up the bag and catch all the right buses to the ferry. Wah! 7. I got my English essay back yesterday, and even though I had one grade level taken off for lateness, I still got a B!! The comments were "Your essay has a clear, logical structure and, with the exception of a few awkward phrasings, is written in effective prose. There are a few important ways in which you could make your argument more successful: 1) Come up with a stronger thesis. 2) Follow the claim-evidence-analysis formula more closely in your analytical paragraphs. 3)Make sure all of your claims are directly and logically connected to the proving of your thesis." Personally, I thought my thesis was good, I followed the formula, and also followed the thesis proof formula. But ti's the grade that counts, and did I mentions...it is a B!! Woo hoo!! 8) I am disgusted by how my boyfriend lives. His roomie is also on the team, but is a complete druggie and a pig. (I know this is not my bf's mess, because his own bedroom is pristine. Clothing is folded and in perfect rows as if he worked for the Gap!) I am afraid to eat, or shower here. Gross!! 9. I'm starving. We need to go OUT for breakfast. Soon!!

1. I'm glad we haven't gotten the 8 inches of snow they predicted. Only about 3 now. 2. If it snows like this until midnight, we might get 3 more. It's getting colder, too. 3. I don't feel like working any more today, but there's 2 more hours to go. 4. I picked out new carpet for my 3 bedrooms, hall and steps. It's Laura Ashley. Looks like a shaggy type, not too long, almost white with a few specks of blue, rose and tan 5. I can get white carpet now that it's only me in the house (and the 2 cats) 6. I test drove a new vehicle this week. A good deal, but not sure I want another car payment just yet. Holding onto the old Jeep a little longer. 7. If it's not a blizzard after work, I plan to go to the gym. I've really been having a good time exercising. Suprised me! 8. I'm glad I was able to get a flu shot this year, especially after reading about all the sick people here. 9. I had a mamogram yesterday. I will probably get called back to recheck a suspicious lump. 10. I really don't need any more drama in my life this year.

1. Happy Birthday Marm! 2. I've been zonked out on the couch since this morning. Trying to wake up some so I can go get the kids in a few minutes. Feeling not much better but I do have some energy and am feeling a little perky for now. 2.5 Sometimes during my zonk out time, the dog wanted out. Stumbled into the den, kicked the huge speaker, I think I hurt my little toe badly. It's got such lovely coloring now.
