3.1 Your ex was jumping on your bed with you in it? Has my absence made me miss something?

1. Silly...you had me wondering for a quick moment too...LOL!! 2. Last night was our annual Pumpkin Carving Party hosted by our good family friends. We do a potluck that includes sodas, Coronas and Merlot! 3. It was great seeing everyone again and fun realizing that this year even more of the kidlets are now away to college. There definitely were more adults than teenagers this year! And the teenagers that were there, well...they were too cool to carve a pumpkin...lol. 4. Yes! I have a picture (OF COURSE! You know me!). 4.1 CocoPop got out his cell phone and snapped a picture to send to all three of our kidlets. Pretty soon all the other parents grabbed their cell phones and did the same thing! So this picture went to several states in the union....LOL! Happy Halloween Factoiders!!

1. Cool pumpkins, Coco! Which one did you do? 2. We let the kids draw their own faces on the pumpkins this year and then cut them out. They turned out really cute. Jenna was funny trying to draw a face, it turned out to be two dots and a line so I carved two circle eyes and a long mouth. 3. I just posted some pictures of Jake and Jenna in my folder. We went to a kids Halloween party Saturday night, there were about 15 kids there, Jake was the oldest...it was so much fun seeing all the little ones dressed up. 4. It is pouring down rain and windy today, not very good trick-or-treating weather, I'm thinking we may head to the mall to trick-or-treat. 5. Happy Halloween, Factoiders!!

1. lola is doing much better. no puking since 3:30 sunday morning. woo hoo! in the meantime, she's eating better than me. i boiled her some chicken and rice. she woofed that right down! 2. i on the other hand, started the weight watcher's "plan" again. my ass just keeps getting bigger and bigger...have to do something. i'm going on a cruise in march with 2 jazzerciser's and i don't want to be the "fat one". lol 3. jewelsie, it's cold and rainy here today, too. me and lola will be going to my mom's later on so we can see my niece all dressed up. she's going as elle woods (legally blonde - reese witherspoon). they have chihuahuas too, and i thought she'd want to borrow lola's pink bag, but no, she's using the fake bag with a fake dog in it for her costume. lol. funny kid. 4. i had my annual exam at the doctor's last wednesday, and i already got my results in the mail on saturday. i think one year i never even got them! 5. today was a lazy day at work....didn't get much done 6. happy halloween everyone! stay safe and warm!

1. Yay for Lola! Kinda scary when your kid (2 or 4 legged) gets sick for no apparent reason! 2. I got to the school at 1:30 today remembering the mess I encountered last year with the simulated earthquake. 3. They seemed to have learned and planned better this year! 4. Last year you waited in line and when you got to the front they checked your id, asked for the name of the kids you were getting and then sent 5th grade runners after them. Then you had to show ID again, match up the emergency cards and sign the kids out. And then they sent the kids out the same gate parents were going in to sign them out. Big mess that took forever. 5. New plan is when they open the gate they send you to get your own kid and you check out with the teachers. The teacher places a mark on the kids hand and then we go out a different gate and another teacher checks the mark to make sure the kid has been properly released. 6. The only thing that concerned me, when I went to get the neighbors girl her teacher was on search and rescue so another teacher was checking her class out. Now, it's quite obvious just looking at us that I am of no relation to the neighbor girl, also obvious, the teacher checking her out didn't know neighbor girl. I signed her out and showed my id...the teacher never checked the emergency card to make sure I was allowed to pick up the neighbor kid. I know I am on her card, she knows it, her teacher knows me from picking her up all year, but when you have hundreds of adults in picking up kids, they should be checking to make sure they're sending kids home with the right people, even if it takes a couple extra seconds! Tomorrow when they send home the comments page I will be mentioning that. My kids teachers checked the emergency cards and they know who I am! 7. From the time the earthquake bell rang til we walked out the gates was only 12 minutes, so it was definitely better planned than last year! 7.5 Have a happy and safe halloween, everyone!

1. Ack I have to follow myself! 2. We had fun tonight. 3. Since we're not home most the night to pass out candy, everyone brings a little something for all the kids in the group. 4. I took little pumpkin containers that had a few hershey kisses, bubble rings, the necklaces I'd made, and pencils. 5. Sis gave all the kids glow sticks. Our friend gave them bracelets, and another flashlights. Mom gave them all sidewalk chalk and candy. They also got stickers, homemade cookies and hot chocolate, and yoyo's. 6. We trick or treated for about two hours and the kids made out like little bandits. My youngest bro is the biggest kid of all and he had a blast directing the kids..."Go, run up to the door, everyone say thank you and Happy Halloween!" 7. Youngest niece decided she liked the running part but wasn't too happy going to the doors. Half way through we ran into one of Dakota's classmates and they joined us for awhile. 8. Every year something goes wrong for Dakota on Halloween. She's either too sick to go or ends up one way or another getting soaking wet (one year it was older kids driving by and tossing water balloons at the little ones out trick or treating, but most the time it's her falling in a gutter or a puddle.) For the first time ever, she had a completely incident free Halloween! Our night however, wasn't completely free of incident. Towards the end of the night we came upon a group of about 20 kids, maybe 13 or 14 years old, and five or six of them were beating the crap out of each other. The guys with us got out there and seperated the kids and sent them on their seperate ways and stuck around for a few to make sure they didn't come back. Other than that though it was a really great night for the kids. 8.5 I hope everyone else had a great night and your kids had fun.

1. We are out of the trick or treat zone where we live and Jordan is too old to go, so last night was just Monday night to us. 2. Halloween was never a big holiday for me... I'm not sure why but it wasn't. But I love hearing and seeing everyones elses stories, costumes and pumpkin carving delights! 3. I'm starting on a new venture of jewelry design. I'm going to be working with silver Art Clay and designing rings, with bezel set stones. I love rings, so if there is no interest from people to buy them, I'll just add them to my own collection! 4. It was wonderful having yestereday off. I've forgotten how wonderful! It seems that I work most Mondays even though I'm not supposed to. 5. So today is MY Monday....and I love my job, but it's always hard to go back after the weekend. 6. In two weeks I go to an Event Planners Conference/workshop. I'm looking forward to it, although I;ll be lonely for home. 7. The good thing is that it's being held in the city that my daughter lives, so after the conference and after she is done with work we will hang out, have dinner and do some Christmas shopping. 8. I wish my family would cooperate and give me Christmas lists... otherwise, they are getting last years jewelry...LOL~ 9. My arm and shoulder are still hurting, but I think it's a wee bit better. Hopefully it will be healed soon so I can start exercising again. I'm getting so flabby and outta shape~

1. The Halloween Pops concert was really good. I am relieved to be done with it, as I had a few rough spots in the Bach fugue (you know....the scary one!) 2. I couldn't believe that most of the audience was also in costume. I heard that the best costume won an iPod. I don't know because I had to leave to go to another rehearsal!

1. I haven't seen Sage around in a long long time, I wonder how she is doing 2. We had only a handful of kids before we took DD out and we knew we wouldn't see anymore after we got back so we were giving out handfuls of candy at our door 3. I think the cutest costume I saw was a little girl who was a grape-she just clustered a bunch of purple balloons around her and made a stem hat-very cute

1. i am on disc 3 of "freaks&geeks". i'm liking it. i just can't figure out why i didn't watch it when it was on tv. 'sorry'...it's because of people like me that it got cancelled. 2. mom made some chicken soup for lunch. i went by and picked it up this morning. she needed some bread and cereal, so i picked that up for her and traded it for the soup. 3. never eat cheeto's while wearing a black shirt!! 4. this new time change makes me drive home in the dark. it was also raining on the way home yesterday. YUCK!!

1. lola had another throw up at 3:30 this morning....i don't know what it is about 3:30 for her...so i didn't ever really go back to sleep after that. 2. this time i think it was because at my mom's house last night, she ate CAT FOOD! probably too rich on her little tummy if she's still got acid or something in there. 3. i've only given her a little bit of bread today, and she seems ok. weird little animal. cuter than heck, though. hope we don't have any incidents tonight. we'd gone 48 hours with no vomit until this morning. 4. last night i had to write a hateful letter to the subscription management of country weekly magazine. ummm, i believe it ought to be called something more along the lines of country "tri-weekly". what a crock. they had the nerve to send me a hateful letter over a $5 invoice! i lost it during my move and didn't know it. country weekly got a nice long letter from me, sad thing is, they probably won't even read it! 4. does anyone know why tv shows are already doing reruns? i mean the season has barely even started and already we have reruns? that sucks. 5. i wish it was friday. 6. found out our cruise won't be going exactly as planned. i'm kind of disappointed, we may now being going on just a weekend cruise. that seems like a waste of time going down there for just 2 days. sigh. at least we're going, though, right?

1. Some guy brought his sick kid to the shop this morning and watched the child get sick all over, and he didn't even have enough sense to take the kid home! It took several doses of clorox and mint clean to disinfect the area and try to rid the shop of the mess and odor. 2. The child must have eaten his weight in candy. 3. My weekend was terrific. 4.Saturday I took my grandchildren to the Pumpkin Patch and then we got ice cream. My grandson stayed overnight. 5. Sunday afternoon he and I went shopping and then he played at Burger King with some other boys. 6. We all went to the church Halloween Festival then trick or treating at uncles and grandparents' houses. 7. Tonight my granddaughter is here. We watched Lilo and Stitch.

1. I just got back a few hours ago from another trip to Washington, DC 2. I was there for a week and a half 3. In addition to work, I got to see my family, spend Halloween with my nieces and nephew, and attended a TV show viewing party 4. It's really good to be back home 5. I've been considering a move back east for a great job, but after the past week I'm thinking I don't want to do that anymore. Money isn't worth it 6. Dh and Dp (Dear Puppy) are sleeping right now. I'm trying really hard NOT to fall asleep, or that'll be it for the night 7. I got up to go to the airport at 4AM Eastern today. It's now 7PM Pacific (10PM Eastern). It was a long day. 8. I want to stay awake to watch Amazing Race 8 1/2. Hope everyone here is well!

1. I am doing okay... thanks Silly, for thinking of me. 2. Mom had surgery last Wednesday to remove the cancer in her bladder. It was the size of a baseball. She didn't have any pain afterwards, and you wouldn't even know she had anything done. 3. It has also been discovered she has an anyeurism in her aorta going into her abdominal area, and will be seeing a cardio vascular doc for that this week. 4. With all the stress and weather changes going on, my body has been screaming in pain for a few weeks now. Damn Fibro! 5. After all the surgeries I had last year, it looks like I might be needing another as the repair work to my pelvic region has failed once again. 6. The crap seems to never end, but I am still smiling. 7. I am disgusted with my weight gain. 8. I've been dancing on the weekends with friends from my single's group, and also at home because I want to lose this weight. 9. I'm getting my hair cut tomorrow. I haven't had it cut since January, and the ends are really bad. Probably going to have an inch taken off, and maybe some long layers, not sure yet, but it will still be long.

1, I had just typed in 8 facts and I lost them. 2. Bleah! I do not want to do it again and now we are at 10. 3. ((((Spy)))) 4. ((((Sage and Sage's Mom)))) 5. We gave out 2000 dum dums last night. Ran out of candy and had to give stickers. 6. I hate the time change! Soon it will be dark and we have absolutely no business and yet we are forced to stay open until 9. 7. An AC Moore's store just opened in our town. DD and I went to spy on it today. They have alot of scrapbook items from companies that surprised me. Most all the items are last year's items, but their prices are lower than mine. It was a discouraging trip. 8. DD and I will be going to the CHA show in Las Vegas in January for a huge shopping trip. We will seek out companies that do not sell to every big chain store! We always buy new anyway and try to get all different items. 9. We love to hear from our customers - you have things that we have never seen before. Unfortunately, if they also say I can get that at home, they will not buy those items. 10. I am watching Alias 4 on DVD to go to sleep by every night.
