1. My pants are getting loose....Amazing what the 'I don't have any money in Munich' diet will do for you!

2. I've been walking a lot, too and have calves of steel!

3. I had a very strange day today. It feels good to be on the TVCH board. I watched a little CNN over the weekend, but I haven't seen much tv at all here.

1. My son, dog and I are going to walk, Nicholas will ride, another mile tonight. We're going to try to do the mile every night.

2. I haven't exercised in years so this is all very weird. But it feels good!

3. The guy I was seeing E, who I bashed all over the place, has come back to me. Seems it was all a big misunderstanding. Really it was!

4. I plan on taking it all very slowly. I haven't dated in a long time either so this is all very weird and exciting.

1. i went rowing last night 6-8
2. Headed to my soccer game with more than enough time to find the way - get to the right exit by 8:15 (game is at 9:15)
3. the sun is setting and i cant see anything - including the street signs and there is no shopping center to turn after!!!
4. i drive around for over a hour and finally at 9:35 find the high school and stadium and get to the game.
5. i collided heads with someone at the beginning of the second half - she left the game for 30 min, i stayed in :-)
5.1 the stadium lights were turned off 3 minutes after the game was over, while we were still walking out - total darkness - ay ay ay

1. Well two days in a row and now one is in hospital or died. I am happy about that.

2. Hubby has gone to Ottawa to pick up our new Line Painting machine. Delivery day....only difference, no labour pains.

3. My students are writing their final computer exam this morning. They are all smiling and seem to be very confident. I am so glad for them. They have worked hard. Tomorrow is their final customer service exam and then they are finished. They also have a major assignment due, but by the sounds of it, everyone is finished.

4. It is really hot and humid here again today. I hate the humidity. When it gets like this, it means that we will get rain, hard rain very soon. I hope it doesn't ruin our camping weekend.
It was so hot that we had to turn the hot tub down from 104 to 102. IMAGINE!

5. I am looking forward to the beautiful chicken ceaser salad I am going to have for lunch today. It is such a nice treat on such a hot day.

Hope you all are having a great day.

Fondly
Wappy

1. It's been a rough morning here today

2. DD's fish died and she is really upset

3. To be honest about two months ago her "real" fish died, but we were going through a terrible emotional time as it was and I knew neither one of us could deal with the loss...so I did the regretable thing of "replacing" it while she was at school

4. Today, although we had a very fun filled day planned, I chose to tell her and let her say her goodbyes instead of replacing her friend....she hasn't come out of her room since.

5. I am not a Tom Cruise fan, nor have I ever been a Tom Cruise fan (and I don't mean his acting abilities).This used to stir up much controversy in my home....until recently. Now when I roll my eyes at the TV during one of his ridiculous interviews the rest of the family seems to join in!

6. I haven't been able to shake the cold I got while in Disneyland that started as a very bad throat, turned into laryngitis and is now back to being a very bad sore throat.

1. I did laundry earlier today.

2. There was a woman there with two little girls and a baby. The girls were- oh maybe around 3 and 5.

3. The older girl was outside looking into the laundramat through the glass. The littler girl was pounding on the glass at her sister yelling "as*hole" and "b*tch" at her. Mom didn't acknowledge any of this.

4. Mom went outside to smoke. The littlest girl stood next to her, digging through the ashtray out there and arranging the cigarette butts while her mom smoked and watched. Mom didn't stop her.

5. Later, the older girl was pushing carts around and asked me if I knew where they go. I said anywhere against a wall I'm sure would be fine. The younger one started walking around saying "f*ck you, d*ck" to her sister. AGAIN Mom ignored this.

6. They were honestly nice seeming kids. The youngest girl kept coming up to me, smiling, handing me stuff, etc. I'm guessing she didn't even have a clue of the meaning of what she was saying.

7. Why would a mom ignore this????

Sadly, Kaili, because the mom has some serious problems. My heart breaks when I hear about moms like that. Children are so precious yet some are treated like they are only burdens.

1. I just wanted to introduce myself. I am from Canada.
2. I have a mild addiction to TV. (Who am I kidding????) I will watch just about anything - except Sci-Fi. I love reality shows the best, but am proud to say that I avoided the Chaotic mess Britney created.
3. I have been married nine years to DH and have two DS aged 3 and 6.
4. I just graduated with a BA in Psychology and am going back to school in September to get my second BA in English and Philosophy. I will be done that one by next April.
5. Two weeks ago my DH and I built a small fence between our house and our rotten neighbour's. It is a rental property that should be condemned.
6. Five minutes ago the tenants drove out of their driveway and backed into the fence.
7. They didn't stop. They would be perfect for the TV show Trailer Park Boys.
8. We live in a decent neighbourhood. It is older, but developing as people improve the properties. Our whole block has seen improvements --except the house next to ours.
8.1. Did I do OK on the facts?

8.5 Welcome, Serenity! Don't mind our crazy, haphazard numbering system. You did a great job with your facts. I lol at the Trailer Park Boys comment, but I KNOW it isn't funny living next door to them.

After work is when I realized I didn't have it with me in the car. Then I got home and can't find it here either. So so very much stuff is in it too!!

1. Today I am a quarter of a century old

2. I get to spend the day going to the DMV, taking my puppy to the vet and shipping some items at the post office....

3. I guess that is when you know you have gotten old, when birthdays are no longer about the party and instead about how happy you are that you just don't have to clean!

1. Happy Birthday Sillycalimomma!

2. It's the placement of the moon, Sugarbok. At least I'm hoping so, since my daughter has also gone on overload.

3. Kaili, it probably fell out of the car onto the pavement from your lap. Ut oh Hope you have luck finding this one.

4. Skootz, that is a nice thing to look forward to.

4.123 Jeep, do we all have grown sons who are unmarried? I've heard from reliable sources that mine is good looking, funny, smart, athletic, etc. but he just hasn't found the one <sigh>

1. Happy Birthday, Silly!

2. Eggie its in the air I think. I had a horrible day with the kids yesterday that included whinning, complaining, bad attitudes, and Caleb losing one shoe and ruining his second pair! Me and Darren had to go take care of something yesterday afternoon, we dropped all four kids (cuz my nieces were here) off at my sisters and when we picked them up she told me she thought I was exaggerating earlier in the day til she had them and realized I was right on, lol.

4. Got up this morning and found Darren took my car to work, stinker! I had plans today that included lots of driving and was looking forward to it, lol.

5. Turned on the sprinklers this morning and water shot straight up in the air from one of em. Sigh.....ya'll would not believe how often we have to replace broken heads.

1. Guess who's just one lucky girl?

2. Yep, that would be me!

3. I decided to drive over to the grocery store and leave them my number in case anyone turned in my wallet. I called early this morning and they didn't have it.

4. Sometime soon after I called, someone turned it in. The woman at the store called my bank, but they still have my old number and I just have a cell phone now so she couldn't call me back.

5. Not even a penny missing. What a relief!

6. I believe most people are pretty honest and will turn in a lost wallet, but I'm glad it wasn't found by the small portion of people who wouldn't.

Yay!!!!

1. You ARE very lucky Kaili!

2. Something is in the air, I agree. I have been having problems with my kids lately too. I'm about ready to go batty.

3. Jenna has decided it is not necessary to nap anymore, so she just whines all day instead. Then at bedtime, it is more fun to play instead of sleep so she just sits in her room and plays until 10:00 at night. That combined with no nap has been evil. Up until last week she was asleep by 7:30 at night and took a 3 hour nap during the day.

4. Not only that, but since Jake and Jenna share a room she keeps him up so he is grumpy all the time. Ugh.

5. There is a little boy that is missing not far from my house. I have heard the National Guard Helicopter out there today. He is only 4 and has now been missing for 24 hours and they have no clues. When I was out today I kept my eyes peeled everywhere.

6. It kind of puts it all in perspective when my kids frustrate me.

7. The weather is gorgeous outside today, why are we not outside enjoying it?

8. I think we will go play in the sprinkler.

1. I've been in a funk all day....

2. On the way to drop my daughter off at summer school today I literally barely missed being right in the middle of a multi-car pile up.

3. The driver of the SUV in front of us must have fallen asleep or been too busy drinking their coffee or something because they veered into the lane to the right of us and then overcorected and hit the median-then they flipped and rolled twice.

4. This all happened in seconds and I had zero time to react-I felt like an angel was guiding my car right through the chaos and before I could comprehend what was going on we were past the accident and I was looking at a 4 car pile up in my rearview mirror.

5. I have been shaken by this all day.

6. Dinner last night was great (I posted a semi snipet of the event in my folder)

7. There is definately something in the air with the kidlets-dd has been an absolute PILL for over a week now and I have begun to pull out my hair!

8. Thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday

9. I can not wait for the new Harry Potter book to come out!!!

1. Only because I haven't been posting facts as regularly as I used to, I'm going to give it a whirl tonight!

2. This week has been a rather productive week for me as far as wedding planning goes.

3. I ordered cute mini-totes for my bridesmaids (lillianvernon.com - $7.98 each!!!) and they were delivered on Monday. I ordered their jewelry through Avon and they came in today ($9.99 for an earring and necklace set, and boy are they pretty!). I ordered them cute flip flops to wear at the reception and they came in today as well. I still have to order their pashminas/wraps and they will be done.

4. Tonight we went and picked out the tuxes and had Steve, the best man and my father all measured. Only 4 of the groomsmen remain. Such a weight lifted off my shoulders and best of all the tux rentals were on sale this month!

5. Last night I ordered my shoes online through shoebuy.com. I wear a wide shoe and was having a heck of a time finding shoes to fit my feet so I had to just bite the bullet and order the shoes online. Shoebuy.com has free shipping and free returns though, so if they don't fir I'll return them and just order a different pair.

6. Tomorrow I'm going to meet with the manager at our reception hall. I have to make a decision on the menu so I can place my order for invites hopefully next week. I have a list a mile long of questions I want to ask her.

7. Oh, I also won the cutest birdcage on Ebay that I plan on using on the gift table for cards. It's a pretty decent size and was only $16 total. I'm really lucking out with the bargains!

8. As soon as my shoes come in (and providing the fit well) I'm going to start my dress fittings. I'm most nervous about this! I have a vision for how I want to look and I just hope my dress turns out the way I want it too.

9. I almost forgot, my mom bought her dress today! She saw a dress in the window of a local bridal salon and fell in love with it so she wanted me to go with her to give her my opinion. I hated it on her, it just didn't compliment her at all. I made her try on a different dress in a, eggplant color and it looked fabulous on her! The sales lady and I loved the way it looked on her and after a little bit of prodding she decided to buy it. Luckily she was able to buy the dress right off the rack and it needs very minor alterations.

10. I hope everyone has a safe and happy 4th of July holiday weekend!
