1. Awesome car Landi!!!

2. Went to see Ron White tonight and came home with sore cheeks and side stitches. If any of you don't know who he is you can catch him on Comedy Central throughout the day tomorrow. Be prepared to laugh!

3. I still haven't watched my tape of Survivor from Thursday...off to do that now.

HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE!!!

1. Today is a good day, Tim has decided to visit his brother for a few hours, having him in the living room constantly after this surgery has been a huge marital test. LOL! I love the guy but I'm not afraid to admit I'm glad he's getting out of the house for awhile.

2. I'm rather proud of myself this week, we are having an engagement party for my son and future DIL while he is home on block leave in June. I decided since so many people are on the "have to be invited" list we'd do an outdoor picnic at a local park.

3. Going with the informal theme of the engagement party I printed all the invitations myself on the computer. I remembered to get all new ink for the printer before I started. See how good I'm doing? HEHE!

4. My parents have returned from their winter in FL, now I have to be the attentive daughter again. Does everyone get lazy about doing things when they have time off or is it just me? It's a good thing I got my yard work done early since it looks like the next few weekends I'll be at their place getting their's in shape.

1. Beautiful car, Landi!

2. Last night I had a bit of a scare. I was in the bedroom when there started a whole lot of noise out front and then there was LOUD banging on the downstairs front door and constant ringing of the doorbell.

3. Now I know none of our friends would be doing that so I struggled to make my way to the balcony door since there is no way I can make it downstairs with a broken leg. (Not that I would have opened the door anyway.)

4. So I yelled out what is it and there was a whole gang of young adults with extremely loud music playing making all the ruckess. A girl yelled up that she was looking for her friend and I yelled back that nobody lived here but me and hubby. I know....it was out of my mouth before I thought about it. DUH. So I close the door and the banging on the door and ringing the bell started again and then rocks were being hurled upstairs against my windows and glass door.

5. I called the police and stayed out of line of the windows and door and then called hubby at work. The cops came and I made my way back over to the balcony door and told them what was going on and asked them to stay until hubby got home. They did and he came home and talked to them and stayed home the rest of the night.

5.5. It scared me because I'm so vulnerable up here. Hubby said that whenever we can afford it he'll put a motion light, mic, and camera on the front porch. I'm not holding my breath.

1. Cool car Landi - congratulations

2. I am just back on line now - 2:40 Sunday afternoon from Saturday night. Talk about withdrawal

3. We got a pile of wet snow yesterday and today.

4. We have 100 acres of corn under snow right now

5. I also have 1/2 my garden planted and under snow

6. Snow is suppose to melt tomorrow, thank goodness

7.0 Have an appointment tomorrow morning to get the papers drawn up to get our tenants out...Nick talk to the husband last night...they are now worried that we may use about $20 of their hydro running a garden hose.

7.1 good grief...this could be a long 2 months (have to give them 60 days notice..hopefully they will move out earlier -:-)

1. I'm hoping my niece will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.

2. The best news was that the MRI showed no brain tumors and her Lumbar Puncture came back negative for meningitis, both bacterial and/or viral. Good, good news.

3. This morning the Pediatric Neurologist diagnosed her with "cluster migraine" headaches.

4. Poor thing...this has been going on since last Monday. My sister took her to the ER on Wednesday night and after giving her a pain med injection, they sent her home.

5. On Friday morning, my sister took her back to the ER because the pain was more severe than the Wednesday night ER visit.

6. So on Friday, they admitted her and started doing all the tests to rule out the possibilities of causing the severe headache and began to try and get a grip on pain management for her migraine.

7. This morning, they started the third combo of selected IV drugs and by this afternoon, there clearly was a difference in her disposition. Her pain level has been going from a 2-4 on a scale of 1-10. This is much better, but she's still so miserable, poor baby.

8. It sure is such a helpless feeling to see a little one in so much pain. All I could do was lay down beside her and hold her as she was feeling so miserable.

1. Aw Eggie, I'm sorry to hear about your little niece! Migraines are just awful and no one, especially a child should have to go through those.

2. I am alone for the first time since Friday night. Wow, it's quiet!

3. I put Caleb in bed with Darren. Even though he's out of school tomorrow, he needed to get in bed on time and I'm more comfy with him in there so Darren can keep an ear on him.

4. He was feeling better for awhile, his fever gone, no vomiting, even eating and drinking and then he started to look and feel like crap again. Hopefully with the meds he'll start feeling better soon.

5. Dakota told me tonight she's not getting enough attention. She was sad cuz we spent the whole weekend taking care of Caleb (not that she was sad that we were taking care of him, but that we weren't paying as much attention to her.)

6. I spent a couple hours with her putting together some scrapbook pages, and promised her once he was feeling better that we would go out and spend the day together doing something for just us girls.

7. I'm actually very proud of her for the way she handled it. She didn't throw a tantrum or kick and scream, she sat down next to me and said, "I feel very left out because you and daddy aren't giving me as much attention as you are Caleb." And then she listened to why we were paying so much attention to him and offered to help take care of him. I thought she was pretty sweet and articulate for a six year old!

8. Tomorrow I'm going to have to drop him off at my moms in the morning so I can take the girls to school, wait around to get his homework, and then run a quick errand to pay a bill. Hopefully it won't take me more than an hour.

9. I am absolutely exhausted! I had about 3 hours of sleep this morning and not much more than that Friday night. I'm just waiting for the laundry to finish up so I can go to bed!

1. Eggie, I feel so much for your family these days. I am praying for your cousin waiting for the liver transplant, the niece who is offering one of her kidneys, and your 12-year old niece with the migraine headaches.

2. I love landi's new car! To me, they look like the handsome (sp?) cabs in London. Wondering if they are that roomy inside, too.

3. I feel for Skootzy and her dh, too. My goodness, tenant problems, snow on the new crop and a barn to build! Praying that things settle down now a bit for you all--and that your tongue doesn't have too many bites on it after dealing with your tenants for two more months!

4. Excited for Legal, hearing about her summer plans! Either one would be so exciting! I swear, she has the most interesting life imaginable! And fearless! Just charges into making her dreams come true--and reminds me all the time that life is not just for observing.

5. Yup, Jewels, I think you have something there with that philosophy! And yes, isn't it wonderful and sad at the same time when you see your child maturing? (All the work you've been doing with your children WILL pay off, really it will.)

6. Twinkie, in the meantime, you can buy a recording of a noisy, mean old dog barking. That might help.

7. Crossing fingers for happy job interview results for Nickovtyme's wife and Reader's dh.

8. My mom had a terrific day yesterday! Just terrific. She is sounding, looking and acting more like her old self!

9. I will be taking her to her surgeon on Tuesday to get her huge bandage and drain removed. I know she will be thrilled to get rid of both.

10. The surgeon has been in touch with the oncologoist, so I am sure we will be learning more about the approach/timing of her chemotherapy. She will need to set up an appointment with the oncologist after she gets the all-clear from the surgeon.

My weekend got better and better

1. Fixing supper last night and Lisa (youngest dd) fell on the kitchen floor and then hit her head on the back of one of our wooden kitchen chairs, so off to ER we went and she had to get 4 stitches on her forhead. She was then awake at midnight in pain as the freezing was out, so got her advil and then by the way she was crying I could tell that she was scared and in pain, so for the first time ever, she slept with us in the bed. (probably the last time) Certainly not use to having someone in our bed, so I was awake a lot last night and then awake by 5:20am this morning too.

2 On the bright side, go to get papers from the lawyers to serve the tenants and in to months from now (or hopefully sooner lol) buh bye.

1. We're home! The house is still standing, the kids still are talking to each other... its like we werent even gone!! :-)

2. DH and I did a Marriage Encounter. It was Awesome, a whole weekend, Friday eve, till Sunday eve, all about US! We're in love!!

3. DH has an interview at 1 cst, may it all work out, its the job he loves to do, and with it he'll be respected, quite the opposite of the job he currently has (and which may not be there tonight, another downsizing today!)

3.1 Egbok, you have so much love that you share, to think of trying to give comfort, by giving of yourself, may her pain be located, and managed.

3.2 (whistle clipart) cool car Landi!!

1. Had my FIL visting this weekend.

2. Refrigerator/Freezer went out Friday - so no ice for the soda and the Jack (but we did fill a cooler with ice cubes to keep the champagne chilled).

3. FIL and his friends are always up for a fine dining experience - with good wine (Saturday night's dinner).

4. I'm sitting at home,

4. I had to leave work early to be here for the repair person (my "appointment" is between 1p and 5p today, according to the recorded message from Sears Home Appliance Repair service). I got lucky and there was only one new admit and one followup patient I had to see this morning (because konashark had a mandatory meeting at 2p today and couldn't be here instead).

5. So, I've been home for 90 min and no phone call, no repair person yet (but I'm sitting the chat room if anyone else is home). Getting caught up on Amazing Race info from TWoP and thinking about doing some stuff for my state Dietetics Meeting this weekend.

1. I now have a rifle by the balcony door. It doesn't have any bullets but that's fine. It can serve as a scare tactic. Marm, you can have your neighbors back. LOL

2. In 6 hours I have to be at the Orthopedist to have my leg x-rayed. I'm afraid that I did some damage to it with the walking boot, which btw looks just like Frankenstein's boot.

3. I'm not looking forward to getting down and back up the stairs here. Its a struggle for me and hubby.

4. I'm so over this. I told hubby if I ever break another leg just shoot me. He asked if he could have that in writing. Of course I said NO. LOL

5. This has been a real test of our marriage and I think we have passed with flying colors even though at times its been rough.

6. I can't wait to have 2 good legs again. I'm going to join the YMCA and get buff. They have an indoor pool so I can start off with that since its low impact. I'm hoping that by Christmas I will have lost at least 30 lbs. My longer term goal is 60 lbs lost. I want to be a grandma in great shape!

Have a great day tomorrow, everyone!

1. I have been gone for days its seems.
2. This weekend was the Christian Ladies retreat I was in charge of....Pamper Yoursoul. I believe everyone was well pampered. I came home exhausted and in need of some serious pampering.
3. Hubby and the kids worked hard all weekend and I came home to the cleanest house in all of North America!
4. I have the next two weeks without students. I have been asked to develop a new program that my Board would like to start May 8th. Its great to get this time to plan, although I am a little nervous.
5. My middle son turns 15 this weekend. He is most excited. I guess being 15 is a big deal when you're 14. He is having some friends out to a lazer park.
6. My hubby and I celebrate our 5 year anniversary this weekend. It is hard to believe that we have been married for 5 years already. Most days I feel like I am still a newlywed, so I guess that's a really good thing. I hope we will head out for dinner somewhere nice. When we got married, we bought him a really CHEAP wedding ring. As a painter he didn't think he would wear it often. Well most days, he puts it on right after work. I have decided to buy him a new ring. I hope he is surprised.
7. Say a prayer if you get a chance for my little friend Alex who has brain cancer. He is getting his eyes operated on to correct the cross look he has had since the tumors were discovered. He is quite excited about the thought of not having to wear an eye patch for the first time in 1.5 years.
