1. I had to eat my words this morning and they didn't taste too good. 2. Yesterday (while having a tiny hizzy fit), I told Egbob that I didn't need his help and I could handle stuff by myself...so there! 3. This morning as I was leaving for a doctor's appointment, my car wouldn't start and I was pretty certain my battery was dead. I had to cancel my doctor's appointment...darn! 4. What was the third thing I did? Yup, I called Egbob on my cell phone and asked where he suggested I take my car to buy a new battery after AAA comes out to give me a jump start...and bless his big heart, he didn't even say I told you so. 5. Wargod beat me to 4 facts and I'm deathly afraid of the schtickler!!

morning all 1. Still haven't decided on the decisions we need to make for the new barn. 2. It is frustrating and really working on our nerves. 3. Oldest dd came home from school yesterday with a little cough and by the time bedtime came, she had a full blown cold. I think she will probably be staying home from school today 4. If dd stays home from school today, not much use for me to take other dd to sitters. I was suppose to go to other dd's class this morning, however we have a meeting at 9:30 regarding the barn so won't be doing that either. 5. I am wishing we had a crystal ball so we could make the right decision 6. Can you tell my life is so full of confusion and stress, my facts are all over the board. Have a good day all!

1. (((Skootz))) Don't foget to breathe. I hope all goes well my friend. 2. I have a very important meeting this morning for a new course I will be teaching. I had to make a power point presentation. I think it turned out well, but I guess I will not know until the meeting. I used 3 d graphics which were fun. 3. We emptied the hot tub this weekend and last night it got filled with new, fresh, hot water. I can hardly wait to jump in it tonight. 4. Renovations have started again. This time the laundry room is first. Some adjustments need to be made to accomodate changes upstairs. I didn't even get to post a funny about it because by the time I got home from work, the job was completed. I guess laundry rooms are easier than bathrooms. 5. We also moved and stored all the furniture from the upstairs living room and kitchen. I have decided to get rid of two china cabinets that were old, (read cheap) and nasty. After seeing the pictures in Lance's folder, I'm wondering if BD delivers to Canada! 6. I am looking forward to getting into my gardent this weekend. With all of our other preparation work completed, I should find some time to get my hands in the dirt. Things are sprouting everywhere. 7. I thought I had 7 thoughts but apparently I only had 6. Oh well, I hope the schtickler is still sleeping. Fondly Wappy

1. I haven't posted in here awhile. 2. Today is 8th grade school pictures and my son and his friend picked hot pink backgrounds! Too good!! 3. I went to aerobics last night, walked Rocky around the block and worked in the yard for two hours. 4. My work is taking me for a margarita tonight since they didn't do anything for Secretary's Day last week. 5. It is a terrific sunny day here in Oregon. 6. Can't wait to get home walk Rocky again and work in the yard. 7. I took Thursday and Friday off - Thursday appointments all day - Friday for a me day! 8. Have a great week to all my friends at TVCH.

1. My dog pooped in front of John Cusack today. (don't ask) 2. I haven't been here much lately, and am also reevaluating my participation in message boards in general. 3. My upper shoulders are so sore they feel as though they are burning. 4. My grandmother is back in the hospital. It's very sad what often happens at the end of life. 5. Business is both extremely busy and at the same time hanging by a thread. 6. I quit drinking Coke in January. The past two weeks, I've fallen off the wagon. 7. I have a 7AM meeting tomorrow. I am exhausted. 8. I bought my busy mom a subscription to Netflix for Mothers' Day. I hope she enjoys it. 9. On the outside, I feel like I'm sluggish and depressed, but my insides are just pulsing with tension and negative energy.

1.1 Yankee, you can't reevaluate your participation in TVCH - we NEED to know when your dog poops in front of a major movie star. I mean, who else is going to share this little slice of life with us? 9.1 This too shall pass, Yankee - you have alot on the plate right now, and it's not the sunshine and roses part of life you're dealing with. Just swing off your fingernails until you can grab the ledge with both hands.

1. Its WEDNESDAY! - Hump Day 2. Yesterday was hectic! And not as planned!! 3. The audiologist called and wanted to know why we missed our appt? HUH? Its not on my calendar, it didnt happen!! 4. Well, after many, many phone calls, a cancellation, we had an appoitment Tuesday!! 5. DS HAS HEARING AIDES!! DS HAS HEARING AIDES!! 6. DS had to take a nap - a two hour nap - apparently hearing everything was exhaustin!! 7. He kept asking me if things were "normal"? The car noises, the pavement changes, and there is a noise, the wind was making noises thru the window, dd was talking too loud... He has a lot to get used to, and I think he's scared! 8. He only wore the hearing aides for 30 minutes. 9. I've started another 'diet and exercise' program. My Way. I'm worth it!! MY WAY!! 10. I hate to say it out loud, because the chances for me to fail are very high - 95% chance of not lasting past a 15# loss, then I'll gain 20# back... But I believe today is a new day. I believe I have to make choices that I can live with every day, not just for today to see the scale move downward. I've said this before, but I cant stop, I must try. I am worthy.

1. Yankee, there-there...it sounds like life is pulling you by both arms in opposite directions. Please remember that there are many like me that are here for you. We're a great "sounding board" and we would miss you posting on this board. I'm sending lots of positive thoughts your way...hang in there! 2. I've got the TV on to our local station (KTLA). They are doing a special from Disneyland because of the 50th Anniversary happenings there. It's fun to see all the old film footage of Disneylands' Opening Day back in 1955. (Hi GAL...I acknowledge how you feel about Disneyland, however...it's their 50th Anniversary for gawds sake...LOL!!)

1. {{{Yankee}}} I'm going to ditto Gal and Eggie, cuz they said it much better than I could! 2. Gal, cover your eyes, lol. I'm so excited about the 50th anniversary of Disneyland I can barely stand it! Darren's company changed their fun day ticket policy this year. Instead of waiting til October to get our tickets, we'll be getting them next month! We can actually go when it's warm outside, lol. 3. Also very exciting is that Space Mountain will be reopened after a couple years of renovations! I'm not sure who is happier, me or the kids, LOL.

1. yankee, don't go, we live vicariously through you and your famous people stories! 2. i can relate, if i was around famous people, my puppy would probably poop in front of them, too. i don't know why not? she does everywhere else! i've never seen an animal that poops as much as that tiny dog! 3. yesterday, the lovely dog chewed part of the zipper off of her $37.50 handbag that she travels everywhere in! she wasn't even IN the damn thing, she was at my mom's who was clearly supervising her very well! so, now it doesn't zip and she can get out of it. 4. my current pet peeve is people who pretend to be your friend and have stabbed you in the back very badly....grrrr. let's just say yesterday wasn't the best day at work, and then the pup chewing up her bag. oh well, lessons learned, right?

1. My pool has turned emerald green. YIKES! 2. The pool pump and filter spew water all over the place when shut off. The backwash is slimey! BLECH! 3. I feel like I have a lake in the backyard. 4. Bought $150 worth of sand and chemicals and algaecide to get the pool back to "normal". 5. Have to change the sand in the filter. 150 pounds of it. Can't do it until Saturday.....hope that the Loch Ness Monster doesn't inhabit the pool between now and then.

1. LOL Marm, I just had flashbacks to the Malcolm in the Middle episode where they got a hot tub. 2. I have a new, strange, and kinda scary sound in my car. It's a sort of knocking sound somewhere around the front tire and anytime I turn left my car does this little hiccup jerking move. It has me a bit worried about peices falling off again! Darren was oh so helpful and told me not to drive it til he could look at it, while my brother in law tried not to choke on soda as he said it sounds like the front wheels gonna fall off. Bil also added for me not to be too upset since I'm one more weird noise closer to a new car, LOL. Gee thanks guys. 3. So tomorrow, my neighbor (whose daughter I take to and from school most days) will be driving. I'm scared, lol. She's in her 30's and until a couple months ago has never driven. She has her permit (which means I have to go with her) and the only driving I've seen her do so far is backing up and pulling forward in the driveway while she's out there sweeping! 4. In the past I have used their car to take the kids to school and pick them up when mine isn't working or to take her to the doctors or shopping, but right around the same time she got her permit they bought a brand new mini van. I'm not driving anyone's brand new car, LOL. So tomorrow she's driving, then Friday her hubby is off and can take the kids to school while Darren gets off early and can pick them up. 5. Now heres the funny part. All week long our weather has been awesome. 80 degree temps, sun is shining, light breezes, and no clouds. I told the kids this morning we were going to walk tomorrow morning. I've been planning to do this all week, but the kids haven't been ready in time, so I thought telling them ahead of time, they'd all be ready earlier. Little neighbor girl perks up and says, "But, it's supposed to rain tomorrow." "Nuh uh," says me. We're done with rain and nasty weather. Hahaha on me, I get home and check the weather for tomorrow...not only are we expecting more damn rain, but the temps are supposed to drop to the mid 50's to low 60's. I watched the weather all day, clear blue skies, hot, no wind until about 4pm this afternoon! Wind started to howl, it got cool, and the clouds blew in. Much colder now and looks like it's going to rain any second. 6. To top it off, Caleb hasn't had practice all week. We get a call tonight that they will have practice tomorrow. Huh???? We can't have practice the days we have clear, blue skies and warm temps, but schedule it for the day it's supposed to rain and be cold? Hopefully it will rain straight through the day and they'll cancel practice, lol. Those poor kids will be miserable out there in the cold and muddy, wet grass if it stops raining.

1. War, not only raid and cool but they say wind, too, later today, if not already. 2. I lost pretty much a week to that ^)(*& expensive and painful root canal 3. But I have returned to full strength! 4. Getting ready for my road trip to Arizona, I got the car serviced, all the "normal" oil and stuff plus some radiator work. 5. Today I went to Fry's Electronics and I now have a new radio/cd/mp3 player in the car!! My old radio was fine but there was no cdplayer and the tape player died years ago. I will have MUSIC even for the parts of Interstate 8 where no radio station can penetrate!! 6. I also got my hotel reservation.. actually it is a Comfort Suites and I popped for a suite since all their rooms are so inexpensive and that includes free high speed internet using a real computer (mine) not webtv .. and it is less than a mile from my friends. 7. So I get to go to the graduation as promised for years, AND get to meet another TVCHer while I'm there. YAY! AND my friend has a sugar glider and I cannot wait to see that cute lil creature.

1. It is good to see Moondance back posting at TVCH! 2. I sure hope you can hang in there Yankee! 3. For mother's day Sunday, Lottaluv is getting to do anything she wants for the entire day--I have asked her daughters to be at her disposal for anything she asks--and will lead by example--I will be first in line to help provide whatever she wishes. 4. I still love my job--some of the people may suck, but the jobs I get to do are fantastic. As an added bonus, they pay me to do something I love. 5. I am inspired by a number of the people who post here at TVCH--there are some truly fantastic people with amazing strength. 6. I am a very competitive person--and I compete the hardest with myself. 7. That said, I help coach the 8 and under softball team one of my step-daughters plays on. I see my task is not to teach them to win, but ot teach them the joy of the game, respect for the game and fellow players, try your hardest and some fundamentals of the game to build on should they choose to continue to play in future years. If they can learn those things, over time winning will come to all of them. 8. I love good food and good wine. They always taste better with a good friend though. 9. While cooking dinner last night, I left a cabinet door open above the stove. I forgot about doing that, and cut my head open the corner of the door (a minor cut). I used to do that frequently by hitting my head on the weight machine at the apartment complex. I may learn someday--or not--LOL! All I could do was laugh at myself for not having learned yet. 10. There will always be reasons to not do something--I hope I make better efforts to find reasons the other way.

Hang in there. 3. In case I haven't said it lately, I'm so thankful for this website and the people here... you're all such wonderful people, and you enrich my life in so many ways.
