good morning Factoiders

1. It's Saturday, tomorrow we are having Thanksgiving here at our house.

2. My mom is cooking the turkey and everyone else is bringing something. I am making squash and mix veggies.

3. I have yet to start cleaning the house for tomorrow, I have had a bunch of dizzy spells in the last 2 days and once they hit, I am wiped out for a while....hopefully they don't start up today again, I need to get somethings done around here.

4. DH is done combining the beans, but is starting the field corn today..so I am a single mom again around the house. {sigh}

1) Been going to bed too late each night (wonder why? My TVCH addiction). So very, very drowsy today.

2) Gotta take mom to get a haircut shortly. Pun intended. LOL.

3) Being a nervous Nelly, I called 1-800-butterball, and got more instructions and advice.

4) Just took mr. turkey out of fridge to start defrosting process. sigh.

5) It's our 6th Wedding Anniversary today. I LOVE YOU VinBlanche!

5a) ETA - My poor dear has to work today, and he's having a bad day, apparently things are not going well smoothly there today. So much for him getting home early.

1. An early Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian Factoiders! Enjoy your family meal time filled with turkey and other delicious foods set at your tables...yum!

2. I'm sitting here procrastinating....ugh!

3. I really need to get my car in for it's servicing....the little warning light has been on for about 2 weeks now...ugh!

4. And I really, REALLY need to get my roots touched up and my highlights refreshed....the image I have been seeing in my mirror is alarming....ugh!

5. I do have an appointment to get my hair refreshed today because that's more important than my car....lol!

6. I'm so vain! The only reason I'm getting my hair touched up is because I'm attending a dinner party with dh tonight and I want to look my best....ugh!

6a. Have a great Saturday Factoiders!!

1. Happy Anniversary Mame and Vin! And Happy Thanksgiving to ya'll.

2. Skootz, why you having dizzy spells?

3. My allergies are going nuts this morning. So our the kids! It's very windy today though and we probably have poorer air quality.

4. Neighbor girls party is later today. Her dad said it was going from 3pm-3am, it probably will, lol.

5. Still need to finish her present, lol. I have a little under 6 hours to get it done!

6. My mil called at 7:30 to let me know her city is having their annual fall festival this weekend and was wondering if we were going. I was half asleep and have no clue what I told her! She also wants Darren to dog sit. This makes me a wee bit nervous, she has four dogs, 2 pomeranians and 2 chiuauahs. Harv doesn't like any of them! They're too yippy and hyper for his lazy butt and everytime he's around them they drive him bonkers.

1. i am at work and watching ghost whisperer.

2. it is a cool and cloudy day which means i won't have many tanners today.

3. i close at 3 but may leave early if it is dead slow.

4. i have such a boring live...i live vicariously through all of ya'll!!

5. i think i'll go check recipies and find something new to try. but it must be really easy to fix.

6. juju...don't have a costco here but i might check to see if sam's has the same deal on phone cards.

7. thank the lord i don't sell any kind of food up here...if so, i would eat it all up out of sheer boredom.

8. i stopped at sonic and got a burger and onion rings for breakfast or i guess we could call it an early lunch.

have a nice weekend!!

1. I am exhausted! And about ready to go to bed, this may be a good sign for getting some decent sleep tonight!

2. The party was ok. Dakota learned there was a big difference between a 7 year old girl and 12 year old girls.

3. The little kids (5 of them under 10) were jumping in the jumpy house. Older girls kicked them out so they went in to play video games. Then the girls went in the house and kicked them out so they could dance in the living room. Little ones went back to the jumpy house and not 10 minutes later, the older girls were out telling them to get out again. Poor Kota ended up in tears.

4. Then she found her hero. Neighbors oldest boy (who will be 16 in a few weeks) stood up for her and the other little kids and told the older girls they couldn't keep kicking the little ones out. He made it his goal to make sure the older girls weren't pushing the younger kids around and made sure the little ones were having a good time. I think he was bored to death lol. He could have hung out with the adults, the group of 12 year old girls, or the little ones and that was it.

5. We stayed til about 7:30. Then it got freaking cold! Along with the high winds, it was pretty miserable weather wise for an outdoor party. Besides, it was time for the older girls to have their party alone.

6. Took the kids to Denny's for dinner (they'd eaten at the party but that was around 3.) They had pancakes and hot chocolate, lol. Caleb complained he didn't feel well, had the sniffles going on and once he was done eating he laid down in the booth and went to sleep.

7. Got home and he was running a fever. We gave both of them meds (him for what I'm guessing is a cold and her for her allergies and asthma--she sounds awful tonight.) Then put both of them in bed where they went right to sleep.

8. Tomorrow we're supposed to go to the Fall Festival with Darren's mom, but I'm thinking that may not happen. At least not for me and the kids. This wind is kicking Kota's butt, at least for her asthma. We got hit with a wall of dirt earlier that sent her into a coughing fit. No way she needs to be out there if the weather is like this again.

9. Darren's mom asked if he could puppy sit. Actually wasn't what I thought...she just wants him to go out twice a day to check on them and feed and water them. They decided that she'd ask Caleb if he wants to earn some money, so dad will drive him out and he'll take care of them while she's gone. He's trying to earn $50 for a video game, one that we'd planned on buying him for Christmas. We told him that was fine, if we had jobs for him he could do it for money, thinking he'd never earn it by Christmas. Wrong! He's already got $25 saved, with what grandma is offering it'll put him $15 away from his game, lol.

1. I can't sleep.

2. Wargod, I really liked hearing about the neighbor's boy standing up for the little kids at the party. Good for him!

3. I went to visit my sister tonight.

4. Her kids were a little on the wild side tonight, LOL.

5. Her husband works most nights. He's a chef. So she's home alone with the 3 kids (ages 8, 3 and 6 months!) most nights. It can get wacky.

6. I don't know how she does it. I admire her a lot.

7. My sweet tooth was out of control today. Three guesses why.

8. I've been watching CSI:Miami on DVDs from Netflix. I don't like it as much as the original, but it is still pretty good.

9. I can't believe my folder was named as a place of corruption! ME! The Angel of TVCH! That was a cute Update by the Mystery Writer. I wonder who it was. With that dancing Melodie graphic at the end!! It didn't seem to have JMM's style. Draheid? Juju? I really don't know!

10. The Survivor Idjit Game in Animal Farm is cracking me up.

1. Hermi, he really is a great kid. He's the oldest kid of five (12 and 10 year old sisters, 4 year old brother, and not quite 1 year old sister) and theres a ton of much younger neighbor kids around here. He was taught early it was his job to look out for them and protect them, something he enjoys. He'll go out and watch Dakota when she wants to ride her bike down the dead end street and this summer earned some spending cash being Caleb's buddy. He doesn't have as much time this year being a sophomore in high school and getting all interested in girls, lol, but outside of my family and his parents, he's one of the few people we will ask to babysit the kids.

1.5 Isn't it great being an auntie (I know, I know, I've said it before and I'll say it again, lol!) You get to go enjoy them being wild and wacky, play with them, love on them, and then go home, LOL.

1. He must be wonderful. I was very impressed with how he handled it. I know I didn't have that much maturity when I was 16. It must be nice for you to have him around. :-)

2. Yes! Being an aunt rocks! All the fun and none of the responsibility!

2.1 Obviously, I'm still awake. I feel like I will never sleep again, LOL.

1. I'm awake way too early for a Sunday morning. I wish I could sleep in.

2. Nicholas is with his dad at Fleet Week in San Francisco, so today it's just me and the dog.

3. I think I will start my Christmas shopping today. Shopping is always a good thing!

3.1 I hope that Hermi was able to get back to sleep.

1. Last Friday evening I went in and had a full body massage.

2. Awwwwwwwwwwwww.....................!!

3. This masseuse used her hands, forearm and elbows to work out all the knots in my upper back and neck area.

4. The whole experience was magical and I just about fell asleep.

1. I am now addicted to massages, soft lights and aromatherapy...yummy!

2. Even today, my upper back and neck areas are pain free and feel so....normal!

3. I'm planning on making a monthly appointment to keep out the stress knots in those areas.

4. Last night, CocoMan and I attended a 50th birthday party on the Queen Mary.

5. It was like a class reunion of sorts and the evening was filled with lots of fun. Jack Nicholson and Robin Williams were there too via inpersonators. Jack was amazing and Robin was okay...Nanu-Nanu!

5.1 After the party, CocoMan and I walked around the deck of the Queen Mary and had some quiet time together, which was very nice. The nighttime view looking at downtown Long Beach was awesome.

1. Happy Birthday Bobbie_552001!!!

2. I am a bit jealous of the gathering in Nashville....I would love to have met some of the members....especially Mocha!

3. I am totally wiped out today, have zero energy and a million things to do

4. I had a dirty martini for the first time last night-Yowzers!

5. I wish I had coffee in my house, when will I ever learn?

6. DD has been at her dads all weekend and for the first time in a very long long time I didn't let it stress me out and tried to put the mom button on pause.

7. I have been watching the marathon of Filthy Rich Cattle Drive and these spoiled brats are killing me!

1. I am home from the Nashville gathering!

2. I love my TVCH friends, and am hoping to meet some more when I go to BIRMINGHAM the second week of November.

3. My student forgot to feed the cat this morning. She was VERY happy to see me tonight! PURRRRRR!

4. I am so happy to have finished all the deadlines and extra work for last week.

5. Next week looks MUCH lighter!

6. Except I was surprised to see that our open house for the department is THIS week, and I have to play for about an hour, maybe two. I think that I will have to decide on some of my favorite pieces, because there is NO time to learn a new program.

7. It is dang cold here. I wish I had closed the pool last week! BRRRR!

8. I hired a cleaning lady and she will come on Wednesday morning! YIPPEE!!!!

1. Congratulations Kaili! I'm glad your team finally won!!!!

2. After all.....they were playing the Ain'ts. LOL

3. The radio stations down here were having a field day over the game.

4. And the owner of the Ain'ts wants a new stadium, this was before the hurricane, btw.

5. In this area, we pull for the Carolina Panthers due to Jake Delhomme.

6. In fact, most of the state now pulls for Carolina, lol.

7. I am however, trying to get tickets for the Ain'ts/Dolphins game in Baton Rouge.

8. Changing the subject, it is finally cool down here. Yay!!!!

9. I actually had to turn the heater on this morning for a few minutes.

10. My neighbor caused quite an alarm in town this morning. He was burning his branches that fell during Hurricane Rita and caused quite a high flame. The fire dept and cops showed up, lol.

1. I wanted to go to the game yesterday because I felt they were going to win and the crowd had to be sooo intense with desperation...and with that blowout it would have been so much fun. Did you see the whole crowd of 70,000 singing Happy Birthday to Brett? He's such a cutie! I love him! That grin! *sigh*

1. well i finished disc 2 and i'm now on disc 3....that means it is really slow at the tanning salon today.

2. my mom called and is fixing me breakfast tomorrow. all i have to do and stop by before work to pick it up.

3. i'm so glad my mom is retired and likes to cook. she is making something called blueberry french toast. it sounded yummy.

4. julieboo has talked me into getting "freaks&geeks" to watch next. there are alot of series that i never saw during my phase of not watching the tube much.

5. here are some series that i'll eventually get around to. angel, buffy, smallville, felicity and the west wing. i'm sure there's more but thats all i can think of for now. i'm sure that's enough to keep me busy for a long time. :-)
