1. I had a great first day back subbing today!

2. I did middle and high school FACE classes so I got to meet the new 6th graders and see a lot of the kids I knew from the middle school last year, plus some of the high school kids.

3. I'm so excited about school starting up again- I have so much fun with the kids and I miss it so much during the summer!

1. I have cooked up two big pots of dirty rice for tomorrow's lunch. Bean soup is cooking overnight in a crock pot, and the sausage is ready to go. I am tired of chopping onions and peppers right now and am taking a break.

2. One of my new colleagues is not very happy here. I am tired of listening to her spew off about how it was different at her old job. SIGH. i wish we had hired the other guy. There are two other new people complaining. They need to keep their traps shut or they may find themselves fired. Should I give them advice or let them hang themselves? I tried advice today and felt like I was facing a firing squad.

3. My students taught for the first time today. They did well for the first time and we have set the groundwork to refine and improve for next time.

4. I am very tired. I need to get my own work done instead of fundraising for my student group and listening to the disgruntled spout off. I am going to North Carolina next week and I don't have my paper finished. BUT <GOOD NEWS!!!!!!> I got money from the university to pay for this conference! Now maybe I won't have too much month at the end of my money!

1. Sis and I have been trying to go to the cemetary all week to leave flowers at bils moms grave and check the headstone since it just came in. We've planned to go every day since Tuesday, every day someone's been sick.

2. Tonight it's Dakota. She woke up about an hour and a half ago crying. I got her settled on the couch and she went to sleep. Then she woke up about half an hour later, told me she was hungry and when I went to the kitchen to get her a banana I heard her gag. Luckily I was able to get the puke bowl to her in time! Since then she's alternated between sleeping and throwing up.

3. Since some kind of stomach bug's been running through the extended family and I had my youngest neice yesterday I knew it was only a matter of time before someone got it!

4. Saturday night sis is gonna keep the kids for us. We're planning date night! And then shopping Sunday morning for Dakota's birthday. Her birthday is next Wednesday! We're having a little get together here Sunday, not really a party, just inviting family and friends over for cake and playing. Then the following Sunday, we're going to Build a Bear for her actual party. Should be fun!

5. Sis and bil are going to Vegas next week for their anniversary. They'll be gone four or five days, and we'll be keeping the girls. As far as I know mom will be picking up my oldest neice and taking her to school, then bringing her back here after school so she doesn't miss any days. I certainly hope mom is, lol, since theres no way I can drop my kids off and then get neice across town on time for her school to start. I'm looking forward to it though, but at the same time I'm not, lol. It's hard enough to get the girls into bed at a decent time on weekends and vacations cuz they want to stay up and talk and play, on a school night that will be a problem!

1. (((Wargod))) It is never fun to have to be up with sick kids. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery.

2. TGIF - It has been a week of adjustments here at our house. This is the first time in 4 years that I have classes five days a week.

3. We are gone from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm. Then the boys go to bed at 7:00pm weekdays in order to get enough rest. This means that the time spent between 3:30-7 is spent playing with the boys, DS6 homework, supper, and bathtime. After 7 pm is my time to get all MY homework done, do dishes, and spend time with DH. I will have to fit in TV when I can.

4. I have figured out a good routine so far - just hope I can keep it up for the next four months.

5. If I get up with DH at 6am, I can get a lot done before we leave in the morning. That way weekends can be spent as a family instead of catching up on housework.

6. So far this morning (it is about 7:30 local) I have packed lunches, done a load of laundry, browned a roast and put it in the crock-pot, cleared out the paperwork/junkmail off my desk, put away the dishes from last night, and swept all the floors. I hope I can keep this kind of routine up all semester (without falling asleep in class!) as it is working pretty good so far.

5. We're leaving Sunday for Charleston, SC.

1. My neighbor guy drives me nuts!

2. I've been taking his kid to school and home again for over a year now. Even when both of my kids are sick I will drag them out because the only other way most days for her to get there is to walk (no way in heck as far as I'm concerned!)

3. I don't mind doing this at all. We are friends with the family, the type of neighbors who help each other out and are there for each other.

4. When I went out to turn the sprinklers on this morning, I saw he was home. He gets every other Friday off. Once in a great while he'll offer to take the kids to school or pick them up, so far this year he hasn't. I don't usually ask either.

5. I run over. Hey neighbor guy, Dakota's been up since about 10pm throwing up, she finally went to sleep and has been asleep since about 6:45 (longest she'd slept all night.) Think you can take the other two kids to school? I don't want to have to wake her up and drag her out, especially since she's still throwing up!

6. Neighbor guy sighs. Tells me it's his Friday off, but he guesses if he has to he will. It wasn't even what he said, but the way he said it, like I was completely ruining his morning.

7. If it wasn't for Kota being so sick, I'd have told him never mind!

7.5 LOL, and on the totally flip side I just called Darren to see what time he was getting off work. When he said it'd be by 2, I asked if he could run and pick up more gatorade, soup broth and crackers and then swing by the school and pick up the neighbor girl and Caleb..he says sure! No problem!

6. My life is rather quiet these days.

7. I'm trying not to get depressed, thinking positive things instead of negative.

1. I'm chatty today, even though it is only 8 a.m.

2. I miss my friends from the Hampton Roads area. I haven't made but a handful here in Richmond and they are so involved with their S.O.'s Ah, young love and all that.

3. I need to email both ASL guy and AA guy. I haven't caught up in awhile with either of them.

4. I'll probably end up hanging out with my sister today. Thank heavens she is my friend, too, LOL!

5. Sometimes it sucks being an introvert because that usually means you have a small, intimate circle of friends. So when you are in the rare mood to be around people, you don't have the choices the extroverts have.

6. Gosh, I'm chatty. I feel like I could write 20 facts, no problem! LOL!

7. One of my cats is fighting for lap space with my powerbook!

8. Yesterday would have been my 14th anniversary if I had stayed with my ex. Weird, huh? Thank goodness it wasn't, LOL.

9. We've been having some beautiful weather here lately, but we need some rain.

Happy Saturday, all!

1. How do I follow Miss Chatty Hermi ... thank goodness I adore you!!!

2. I am up early to watch the US Open. I love tennis. Especially tennis boys, Andre, Andy, Roger .... love them all.

3. I am so glad it's the weekend. We've been so busy at work dealing with the aftermaths of the hurricane.

4. My employer deals with salvaged vehicles. We know of 50,000 cars from the hurricane that we are taking into our yards. That is so huge!!!!

5. We are also helping with the yards that were damaged and getting supplies to our co-workers. Good news all of our employees in the South have been accounted for!

6. I'm so glad it's Saturday! I'm spending time with Eddy today. Doing the home stuff. Nicholas has homework. Geography. Can you name the 7 continents?

7. It's really cooled down here in California lately. It feels like Fall. Fall is my favorite season. I'm not a warm weather gal.

8. I bought a pumpkin candle ... it smells so yummy! And it's getting dark early. I love it! Go to bed early and snuggle! Today I'm cooking Shepherds Pie ... yummy!!!

9. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!

1. Wow, it has been a long, long time since I've been to this thread.

2. Lots of good changes in life lately, though I've been very busy as usual.

3. My Mary Kay business is now taking about an hour or more a day to run! My customer base keeps growing and having on-hand inventory is a lot more beneficial than I thought it would be.

4. Building a home-based business is a new challenge. I am having to be very organized, but the more I learn the more I love it.

5. Mary Kay starts commercials next week on television (the first one premieres during Oprah). The company has structured a way for consultants to get referrals through the advertising campaign and the website program.

6. It helps business that Janelle keeps getting MK products from her mom when she wins HoH and talks about how she loves and uses the products She has beautiful skin.

7. DH's new job has been under a bit of uncertainty because Delta sold them to Sky West. But it seems we'll keep the Delta flight benefits for at least another 90 days. After that, they may change some. Just not sure how.

8. In the meantime, I'm going to try to take some trips. Nashville is coming up in less than a month!

9. Also, I think (I said THINK) we may be going to New York for my birthday in a couple of weeks.

10. We're researching how much money we would need before we decide. :-)

1. Vac, you ain't kidding about it cooling down! We were just saying yesterday this is very odd weather for us as we haven't had the cooler on for more than an hour or so each day, mornings are downright cold, evenings are even colder, and we've been getting quite a bit of a breeze! Usually around here we still have high temps through all of September and most of October. It usually starts to get cooler (we're talking mid 80's or so) about mid October, and then Halloween is our first real cold day!

1. when you go for a long time not posting in the facts thread, it is really hard to do. so i thought i would jump on in here when it was only 2 and maybe i can get back in the habit of posting.

2. i haven't been using capital letters in my chats and stuff and now i am out of the habit of using them. you can type alot faster this way, but i'm still slow as heck. :-)

1. Today is one of those days where I stay in the house and do some much needed chores. I'm doing laundry, I've cleaned every room... including dusting and vacuuming. The next thing to do is to start going through my winter clothes to see what stays and what goes.

2. The only reason I'm taking the time to do any of this is because I had to stay in the house to wait for the cable people to come. I've been without cable since Tuesday because a wire or something went loose. It took them this long to send someone out. I've already decided to get a satellite dish because of all the problems I've had with Time Warner in the last week. I've set my appointment and they will be here next week. On that same day, I'm going to call Time Warner and tell them to come get their stuff.

3. I work for Dept of Defense and they are asking for civilian employees to volunteer in areas affected by Katrina. It would possibly be a 30 day deployment. I've been trying to figure out what I can do to help, and I am seriously considering going. I've had people tell me I should go and that I shouldn't for various reasons, but I still have some time to decide.

1. Hey Essence, wanna come help me? I've been cleaning the better part of the morning, lol.

2. Have the whole back of the house done, the living room, and part of the den. Stopping for now to hop in the shower and head out to lunch with Darren and the kids (see the progress I'm making? )

3. After lunch it's back home to finish up and get the kids ready for spending the night with my sis.

4. Date night for us! We're going to dinner then shopping for Kota's birthday. We're having a little get together tomorrow as long as everyone stays healthy.

1. I was supposed to go to Bend with my car club this weekend, but have too much work to do, so stayed home. (And I've never even been to Bend before!)

2. So instead I went to the Hardy Plant Society show today and bought some native plants for my yard (okay, not all of them are native; I got a swamp Hibiscus to try out in a wet area).

3. The air show is this weekend, too, and right now, the Air Force Thunderbirds are flying and my house is shaking 'cause the airport is only two blocks away.

4. I confess, I love it when those planes make my house shake! (My cat doesn't like it so much, though.)

5. I should be working, but I'm not.

6. Anyone who wants to come clean my house is welcome! I even have a spare room!!! :-)

1. I have perfected making fried chicken

2. Unfortunately now that I have, my brother insists on coming over once a week for dinner...you guessed it-for fried chicken.

3. My dad stopped by the other day and brought with him 3 cases each of canned green beans, corn, soup, and 4 cases of water.

4. He wanted to make sure I would be okay if there happened to be an emergency.

5. Im not very close to my family, so this meant a lot to me.

6. I can't believe I am admitting this, but I bought Kelly Clarksons CD today on ebay

7. Everybody who knows me in RL would never believe me if I told them that

8. I don't feel like cooking tonight

9. I found 3 grey hairs this morning and I wanted to cry. *Sigh* SillyCaliMomma is not a kid anymore

1. I started finding grey hairs last year, Silly. I yanked them all out!

2. I have been trying to catch up here tonight, I don't know if I am ever going to do it. So if I have missed wishing anyone a Happy Birthday or anything else, please forgive me!

3. We have been busily preparing our house for its foundation repair. There sure is alot of prep work for this stuff. I'm tired of digging out dirt!

4. Still trying to get rid of the 7 yards of dirt and rock in our front yard. Along with the rock, concrete, wood and bricks in our driveway. Sigh.

5. Jake is liking school so far. His teacher said he had a tough couple days, but as he is getting adjusted and learning the rules he is doing better. Today was the best day so far. I hope it continues.

6. My good friend had a baby last weekend, 9 days early, so I have spent the last couple days taking care of her almost 2 year old and running some errands for her. She was supposed to spend this week doing the last minute things and her mom isn't coming until Friday, so I am trying to help her out.

7. I am going to sign Jenna up for another messy art class, she loved doing it last year and I love that she gets to make a mess there and not at home!

8. Jake is taking a gymnastics class, he can now do a backwards somersault and walk across the high beam all by himself.

9. I am excited for Survivor on Thursday!!! I haven't read any spoilers (I never do), so I don't know what is going on with the 2 previous players coming back, but I am not really excited about that.

10. I am getting my haircut tomorrow!! Yay!!!
