1. I'm home from the Spy/Fly wedding! It was beautiful! 2. Those of you who are waiting for pictures will have to wait a little longer. Most people are getting home tonight or tomorrow, and they need permission to post....hang tight, folks, they will be worth the wait! 3. It was really great to see lots of old friends. It was really great to meet some new friends. YIPPEE, what a great weekend. 4. It was really fun to work with Spy's brother on the music for the wedding. 5. I can't believe that Spy has posted both before and after the wedding! LOL! Actually, knowing Spy, that doesn't REALLY surprise me! 6. I should probably eat some supper. 7. Get to take a job candidate to breakfast tomorrow. Those in Texas know that I don't eat breakfast....I'm going to have some eggs anyway!

1. I'm home from Texas! 2. Spy was a gorgeous bride and Flyboy a handsome groom....ahhhhhh! 3. I want to go back to Texas! I loved riding in a car and seeing wide open spaces! 4. I'm an L.A. gal and so wide open spaces is very refreshing to me. 5. I also enjoyed seeing hawks, cows, horses, houses with pointy roofs (for snow I suppose?), Dairy Queens (YUM!) and long roads that take you up a piece as friendly travelers follow behind. 6. Oh! and also meeting so many new TVCHer's was absolutely wonderful!! And seeing old friends who made my heart smile was just the icing on the cake! 7. I'm going to buy myself some black cowgirl boots and pretend I'm a Texan...lol <giggle g> 8. And I'll be looking for an embossed black leather belt with a silver buckle to go with my jeans and new black boots...LOL!!

1. Eggie, I think you'd make a perfect cowgirl! I don't know why really, other than you'd look totally cute! 2. Kota left her coat at grandma's Saturday, so we have to run over tomorrow morning and grab it. I was gonna send her in Caleb's spare coat, but it's just a bit too big (like hanging to her knees, LOL.) 3. Darren fixed my dryer today! No more squeaking and it's drying much better than it was. I have no idea what he did to it, but it's working. 4. I was kinda disappointed with the Superbowl commercials today. Saw a couple of them I thought were funny, but not too many stood out this year. 5. Caleb finished his report on Mercury. Seems like we've been working on it forever. He needs to copy it so it's neater, hopefully that won't be too big a fight. 6. Remember the button that fell off the door handle of my car. And that I can't open that door from the outside, lol? Well the other back door somehow got locked and now I can't open that one at all! I've been having Kota climb over the seat to open the one that will open for the kids to get in, lol. My car's not going to die all at once, it's going to go piece by piece! I still love it though, lol. 7. I have been enjoying reading the tales from those who went to Spy's wedding! I'm so happy ya'll had fun and had good, safe trips. 8. Me and Kota have been playing Yahtzee everytime Caleb and dad head to the computers for their game. The first few times I was cheating up a storm....4 sixes for mom, that's six points, lol. Lately, I haven't had to cheat at all, she's been kicking my butt and loving it! 9. This morning started out beautiful. Not too cold, no breeze even. I ran to the store to pick up some munchies for the game, by the time I came out (maybe 10-15 minutes) the weather had turned nasty! It had gotten cold and windy and the clouds were rolling in. I think we're due for rain tomorrow again?

1. I'm starting the week with a sore throat. 2. DH and I spent a fun day together. I think his new vitamins are making him extra hyper lol. 3. There are so many sick people at school today. I may take the day off tomorrow to escape the germs. 4. Just ran into DD in the hallway. She's not feeling well either. I told her to see the school nurse if she doesn't feel any better after lunch. 5. I'm finally caught up with most of my grading. I only have today's assignments to finish. 6. Ash Wednesday is coming up. Last Ash Wednesday I was in the hospital having severe asthma attacks. It's amazing what can happen in a year. 7. Glad to hear the Spygirl/Flyboy wedding was lots of fun. I can't wait to see the pics. 8. Today's school lunch looks awful. Of course I didn't have time to pack a good lunch from home. 9. I enjoyed watching the Super Bowl yesterday. I'm not a fan of either team, so it was nice to just sit back and enjoy the game. 10. Have a great day TVCH

1. Deja vu all over again. LOL. Woke up late again and didn't have time to pack a lunch. Today's lunch is even worse. I'm seriously thinking of sneaking out to McDonald's. 2. I had the best end of the day yesterday. Almost every one of my most immature students were absent. It's amazing how well a lesson goes when you don't have to be a drill master the entire class period. lol 2.1 The bad news is that all but one of them are back today. Oh well.

1. Our groomer is back in town!! whoohoo!! She'll faint when she sees how shaggy the pups are right now! 2. I'm not highlighting my hair anymore and gee, I have lots of gray! How did that happen?? bigger 3. I'm hoping the picket fence shows up next weekend. Haven't heard from the company and they don't have the drop-off address. hhhhmmm...not a good sign!

1. I wish I could be on the Texas high list. 2. Instead I am busy wiping snotty noses and reminding Jenna to cover her cough. What fun. 3. We had plans to go to the zoo today, but couldn't with Jenna's cough. 4. We have changed our remodel house plans around so much we might as well tear down our house and build a new one! 5. I am enjoying reading all the Texas stories and I can't wait to see more pictures. 6. Jake and I are going to work on his valentines for his school party. I have to try to get him to sit long enough to write his name 15 times. Yikes. 7. We also have a birthday party to go to this weekend and another valentine party. 8. I am so excited for TAR tonight!

1. Hey! Add me to the list...I'm still high on Texas!! 2. I'm not supposed to be posting from work right now...but you know me, always pushing it...lol! 3. I just found out that I have to do a smallish presentation tomorrow afternoon. I say "smallish", but those who know me, know that I am a talker. 4. I'm looking forward to this new challenge and I'll be pulling some facts together for the remainder of today. 5. In this way, I'll be prepared and hopefully I won't bore the staff to death as I ramble on and on and on. Short'n'sweet and speaking slowly and clearly is the key I'm sure! 6. I'm pretty sure Texas touched my soul. I've had my car radio set on country music ever since. 7. Although I like country music, I've never really tuned into the stories that are being sung. 8. I find it fascinating that a song can be made about band-aids, hiccups, and just normal everyday rl scenarios. 9. Okay, I'm going to look through a few more threads and then I'm finished with my "lunch break".

1. I really do wish I could have been in Texas for Spy's wedding. I don't post much anymore, but I do read/skim a lot, and well, it would have been nice to see the folks I did meet a few years ago at RG's resort - Spy, Marm, Kar, RG, Glenn, Tess, Gracie, and of course Lance, who lives in same city as me but we never talk or see each other anymore... Wish I could have met all the other TVCHer's too.

1. Caleb got a B on his oral report (he forgot a whole sentence,) and an A on his report on Mercury. We're quite proud of him, he worked so hard on both of these projects. 2. Got Dakota's birth certificate today. Also got lost trying to find the place (it's moved since the last time I was there, lol.) Then stopped by sis' and got directions. Since the old and new location are a couple blocks from her house, I figured she'd know. I was wrong, LOL. The whole area is a nightmare mess of office buildings and winding streets. Finally found the place and learned I'm an old married woman. Filling out the form to get it, I had to fill in fathers name, mothers maiden name (I read that twice to make sure it said MAIDEN) and still wrote my married name. Funnier still I didn't realize it til the girl handed me the copy of the form and she'd crossed out my married name and put in my maiden name. 3. Tomorrow I'm in Kota's class for a couple hours, then am going with mom for a drs appt. LOL, that means I really should be getting to bed so I'm ready to go early, but I'm not tired yet!

1. I'm really happy for RG and her new job. 2. I took up crocheting again after not doing it for about 20 years. I didn't think I'd remember how to hold the thread or the hook or anything, but it was just like riding a bicycle! 3. So far, I've made 2 scarves for myself. Not sure what else I want to make. 4. I put a new picture in my profile taken of me and my BF Bob. We were at a friends house where there was a combination Bunko and Birthday party for my GF LeAnne.

1. Nice pic Sage! Hope you are doing well. 2. My new grandson Joey, slept in my arms for over 3 hours last night! 3. I told my daughter that if she got frustrated to wake me up and she doesn't seem to have a problem with that. 4. My other 3 grandchildren came over last night, they are so sweet and I love them to pieces. 5. My niece, the one my mom was raising and now my dh and I are raising, made the honor roll and has a cumm.GPA of 3.95 which is almost perfect. I let her have the day off today.

1. Beautiful picture Sage! 2. Thank you to all the well wishers on my new job! I guess it's time to be a grownup and earn my supper... 3. Speaking of supper, how DO you all get that done when you work everyday?? We never eat at fast food restaurants, but that may be in our future? LOL! 4. The townhomes now have windows and jacuzzi's! As soon as they have heat and water I'm gonna go down there and soak! 5. Jordan did great at his Bball game yesterday. He's becoming such a fantastic athlete. 6. I'm still tired from Texas! And I was the first one to bed each night. I can't imagine how tired the late nighters must be.
