1. I'm home from my friend's wedding. 2. She looked beautiful and the look on the groom's face when he first saw her was amazing. You could tell she is everything to him. I can't describe it. 3. I haven't lit up a man's face like that in a long time, but hey, at least my nephews and nieces light up like Christmas when they see me! 4. My hair is getting longer. I can pull it back in a decent little ponytail now. 5. I've gotten so many compliments on it being short and curly, but I still think I want to grow it long again. 6. Gracie, congrats on being a great aunt. Didn't mean to overlook you earlier!

1. I desperately do NOT need any new shoes. 2. I never have. 3. I have a STRICT NO NEW SHOES policy 4. And yet, the shoes keep coming. 5. If any new shoes arrive, old shoes must leave. 6. But sometimes I cheat on that. 7. Where do all these shoes come from?

1. I packed three pair of shoes for this trip and wore a fourth.....funny I made it through 8 weeks in a suitcase with only three pair of shoes! 2. I am waiting for my airport shuttle. 3. I am REALLY tired! This symposium was packed. Didn't party at all, but fell into bed exhausted every night. 4. I've never seen so many bleary eyed professors in my life! 5. North Carolina is really pretty. 6. I am enjoying the southern accents. 7. I wish that I could have enjoyed southern BBQ a bit more than it had opportunity! 8. I am going to be godmother for my friends' new baby! YIPPEE!!! I've never been a godmother before! My friends come through where my brothers didn't.

01. We finally have working plumbing--no more walking to the grocery store at 3:30AM. 02. I cannot wait to move from here. 03. My little guy (for whom I bought school supplies) brought me two gifts this weekend. 04. He will have finished off his school supply debt tomorrow when he takes out the 6 garbage bags I will have for him. 05. I finally wrote a new fanzine. You can see it here. 06. It's been awhile since I had done one, but I am glad I am back into it. 07. Tomorrow, I really need to declutter more items of the paper variety. 08. Tuesday, we may be vehicle owners of a 1978 Econoline camper van. 09. We looked for Typo on Friday; I think he's hiding at the animal shelter. But we did find a Punk look alike--except he had 6 toes on one foot.

1. Maybe I am just paranoid and my recent RL drama has affected my rational thoughts, but it seems to me that in the past weeks I have all of a sudden lost some "friends" of the CH and I don't even understand why 2. I like bok choy

1. Good for you Vacanick! 2. Maybe folks aren't "lost", Silly, just disillusioned and in mourning since Janelle got evicted from BB. 3. Bok choy is good and I like brussel sprouts, too.

1. DD's first day of school today...she is very excited. 2. Of course the busses are delayed 2 hours due to fog..so I will be driving them into school. 3. Figures, her first day of school, the first day of riding a school bus and it is delayed. 4. Her class is being "staggered" in for starting, so after today, she doesn't get go back to school again until a week from Monday. Poor kid.

1. Silly, sometimes things come up that keep some of us away alot from here. 2. I'm hoping to hear from my doc today about the EKG being moved up sooner. 3. In the meantime, I have developed a terrible tooth infection and I'm on massive antibiotics, pain pills, and aspirin for fever until the dentist can see me on Thur. I've been sleeping almost non-stop and eating next to nothing since last Thur. So I only stop in here for a few minutes and sometimes post a little bit and go back to bed. 4. Sometimes I'm not here often because of mental or emotional stress and well.....sometimes life just gets ya down. 5. I have also felt at times like I was abandoned here but I know most of the time its my own fault for not participating as much. So buck up. LOL Things always turn around. 6. Hermie beat me to 5 so.....sometime around June I think when I was laid up with my broken leg I stopped reading the updates. I'm not sure why except that I couldn't get to the puter as often and now I"m so far behind that I'm afraid I'm going to have to spend about a week to get caught up but I plan on doing that very soon.

1. Thanks Hermi 2. I love shoes but my shoe size varies from store to store 3. Plus the shoe styles now don't have the arch built in where it belongs for me 4. It takes a long time to find good looking shoes with the proper fit unless you've got boat loads of $ to spend on them 5. I haven't looked at my scores in the NFL pool yet and haven't seen any games either 6. Our fair is this week and I'm a volunteer 7. It's gonna be a long week

1. I am very happy for you, Vacanick! 2. I like Bok Choy and Brussels sprouts, but my all time fave veggie is white asparagus. 3. Never could find them fresh in Canadian stores. 4. Last couple of years they have been importing them from South America. 5. Aren't trade agreements wonderful? 6. Poor LittleSkootz, hope Saint Peter's helper is making it up with a treat!?!? 7. Hang in there, Twinks! 8. Gracie, have you ever seen the specially made inserts you can move from shoe to shoe?

1. Walked into the school this morning with kids 2. Greeted by Principal.. 3. Buses were just cancelled (they were on a 2 hour bus delay due to fog) 4. I have to go and pick up the kids again at 3:25pm 5. Lisa's teacher who is due in 4 1/2 weeks had her baby last Friday 6. So now the new kids coming in to school for the first time today, have a teacher they do not even know 7. The teacher has no idea of any of the routine etc. as she has never taught at our school before. 8. Was happy to see one of the student teachers from last year there volunteering today. she knows the routine..so that made me feel better to know that there was someone at the classroom that knew what was going on. 9. Barn open house party went well on Saturday night and we didn't get, or the food didn't get eaten by flies..thank goodness - Pigs come in less than a week

1. Friday I took a vacation day - took the kids to school then my car wouldn't start, had to be jumped and went to Les Schwab, got a new battery but before that I hit a parked car in their parking lot. Damage was done, the guy came out and said OH that damage was already there! Can you believe that. 2. Tonight is my son's open house at high school he is a freshman, so we will be attending. 3. This weekend I cleaned all my light fixtures and cleaned house. 4. Went shopping with my sister Sunday and we had a great lunch at Olive Garden. 5. My neighbor Deneecee is coming home from her visit in Texas today. YIPPEE 6. I washed the car last night and raked leaves up. 7. So far I am the only one at the office, maybe they will all stay home. 8. One can only wish they would all stay home! The Executive Director just called he isn't coming in. 9. Today is a beautiful day in Oregon - 75 degrees 10. Have a great week to all my friends at TVCH!

1. I've had a tough weekend with very little sleep and I think it made me a bit over-dramatic 2. I finally got more than 4 hours of sleep last night though and I feel better.

1. When you buy a Dell Computer the "90" day warranty starts the day you buy it, not the day they build it, not the day they ship it, not the day you receive it. 2. When you buy a Dell Computer and slecet "No Security Software" they put a trial offer of McAffee on it. 3. When you buy a Dell Computer and the McAffee you did NOT ask for or want screws your computer up you are told tough luck, unless you want to give them a credit card number to charge. 4. When you buy a Dell Computer you are not told to set a "System Launch Restore Point" and therefore when the software THEY put on when YOU said NO screws it up and you call the Dell Support Line who then berates you for NOT setting a "System Launch Restore Point" which you didn't know about in the first place. 5. I hate Dell because they wouldn't sell us a computer with Windows 2000. 5A. I don't hate my husband, but am pretty upset that he won't just pay the friggen money because to get this fixed because if we don't we'll lose all our pictures because somebody didn't do regular backups like he told me he would. 5B. I hate myself for not being a controlling nagging wife and making sure he made the backups, or just doing them myself.

01. Mental note: stick with my Toshiba Laptop and DH's eMachine Desktop. {{{Serate}}} 02. I am still sorting through clutter and finding things I had forgotten about; which means they can go away for permanent. 03. I am still torn on some of my fiction books. I don't technically need them, since the library will be less than 2 miles away from my new house. 04. I think I'll clear out the mainstream fiction, but not the items I don't believe the library will carry....or my Harry Potter books. 05. I'm at the point where I either need to spend a lot of time shredding, or gather up more stuff to shred to justify having a bonded shredding company come out. 06. So....anyone want some of my clutter? Remember--one person's clutter is another person's treasure! (I do mail--ask CitrusCityGal!)

1. We had a lovely time at the renaissance faire yesterday. 2. My DH got a knife that was made by the guy who made Crocodile Dundee's knife. 3. I got a bamboo alto saxophone in b-flat. It has such a pretty sound!! 4. We ended up driving THROUGH Manhattan on our way back to Long Island, thank GOD i wasn't behind the wheel. I was freaking nervous enough though. What should have been 2hours, became a 4 hour drive home.. YIKES. 5. Today was lazy. My mother in law made chicken cutlets for dinner.. YUMMMMMMMMMMY! 6. We played shot glass checker tonight.. My DH is passed out in bed already... 7. (I finally found out the real rules to this thing, thanks to Secret!) Mrs. Saxy
