1. The oddest thing happened. Darren's ashtray was stolen out of his car. Usually he tosses all his money into it, change and cash, he's been doing this since he started driving and never had it stolen. The really odd part is that yesterday he had $27 sitting there when I asked if he had a couple one's for the kids lunches. He sent Caleb out who grabbed all the cash and brought it in and instead of putting the cash back he put it in his jacket pocket. So all they got was a handful of pennies, a couple nickles and dimes, $1 in quarters, and the ashtray. Why take the ashtray? Why leave his mp3 player and tools? They didn't even have to break into the car cuz the door was unlocked. It's not even disturbing or upsetting because the whole thing just seems odd...someone opened the car and stole the ashtray and less than $2 in change. 1.5 About 3:30 this morning I woke up from a sound sleep pretty sure I'd heard a door close. I was sure enough I heard it for a minute I figured I'd heard Darren leave and reached over to find him still in bed. When I did I wrote it off to dreaming and went to sleep. Darren got home and asked if I'd taken the ashtray out, when I said no he told me it was gone and I rememered waking up hearing a door shut so I'm wondering if that's what I heard.

1. Mornings have not been so bleck this week. I don't know why? Maybe having it lighter in the morning helps my mood more than I realized it would. 2. Still very quiet in the library, but I actually got a bit done for the Book Review Committee I am on. Got 5 books reviewed. Only 75 to go, LOL! Today I am going to try to do more for the BRC and I also have the monthly report to work on so I should stay out of trouble. Happy Wednesday!

1. {{{{{{{{Sage & Mom}}}}}}}}}} thanks for checking in with us. 2. Laura was sick most of the night last night..poor kid, so she is on the couch for the day - feeling a bit better. 3. My cold has settled down a bit and no dizziness today, but I still have the pulsating in my ears. Will be calling the doctor again next week.

1. Back to work for me today...and I was just starting to get used to being home and acting like a housewife, darn! 2. We got a 130+ pictures printed at Walmart this weekend so I'd have some to show my co-workers and boss, and of course all my classmates at school. I can't wait to hear their comments! 3. Max was a bad, bad boy last night. I have mini-pumpkins, mini-hay bales, gourds, and fall leaves scattered about my living room for Fall decoration. Well, the little bugger got himself up on top of the entertainment center last night and knocked everything down. Now I have hay all over the floor and the kicker is I just vacuumed yesterday. 4. We're thinking of selling my car and buying Steve an older model Audi. His SUV is killing us with gas (he has an hour commute each way) and my car isn't much better. He likes the Audi's because they're great on gas and can really rack up the miles, plus they're AWD, which he needs in the winter. So if we sell my car, I get the SUV! I will miss my car though...

1. Jenna has had a nasty case of croup the last couple days. Croup is evil. 2. She is pretty much back to her old self again which means she is bouncing off the walls today. 3. We went to Jake's conference at school last week and it went extremely well. 4. The teacher may send him to read with the 1st grade class, he's only been in kindergarten for 2 months! 5. She is going to start sending home reading homework for him.He is way above average in each subject. 6. Sometimes I wish his emotions matched his intellect...hopefully soon they will even out. 7. I am amazed at some of the things I see in his class...do parents not teach anything to their kids anymore? Do they just rely on the school doing it? Some kids can't even spell their names, let alone write them or recognize them on the wall. I helped in the class last week one day and did some testing and one little girl could only count to five and couldn't recognize any numbers when I showed them to her...and that turned out to not be very unusual. (sorry for the rant...I'll quit now.) 8. I'm making yummy nachos for dinner!!

1. i thought my grandma mary was the only person who ever used the word "croup". i'll have to tell her someone else said it, jewels. she'll like that! 2. this afternoon i took lola to the vet because she's still been trying to upchuck. no yucky stools or anything and she's been drinking water, so she's not dehydrated. but i can't handle watching her gag every couple of minutes. poor baby. she actually lost a quarter of a pound from all the pukiness. she's at 4.25 lbs now! 3. this time i went to the vet that i got her spayed at. it turns out they are much more reasonably priced then our "regular" vet. our appointment wasn't scheduled, and they saw her quickly, gave her a shot and also some medicine for me to give her. all of this was $33! the office visit alone at our normal place is $31. we'll be switching to this vet for good, i believe. 4. they said it is probably a minor case of "gastronitis". at least i think that's what he said. i sure hope the meds do the trick. it sucks not being able to sleep because i'm worried my dog is gonna puke. 5. the bad part about this vet is that she remembers that mom left her there overnight 2 nights in a row, and what they did to her. (the spay). and she trembles. you should have seen her when they took her temp. poor little thing. 6. tonight i made a cake from scratch using splenda. i used a lot more splenda than was directed. the baking kind isn't as sweet. the cake is ok, but the texture of it is weird. 7. i also boiled some chicken for me and the dog, and added some rice to hers. i had green beans as the side for mine. i love green beans. it's a good thing. i'll be eating lots of them! 8. my friend and i ended up getting some floor seats for the keith urban concert in st louis for COST! they are in the 12th row in the center. now we have to sell the set we already have. sigh. here we go again! lol. i have never been on the floor at the savvis center for a show, so this is truly remarkable! 9. one month til the keith urban concert! woo hoo!

1. My life is really looking up lately! 2. My best bud, Chris, has been over almost everyday since he got back. 3. He and I and another friend of our's drove out to the country because our friend wanted to find a pumpkin patch to pick her own pumpkin. The views were glorious with the rolling hills of bright colors on the trees. I was kicking myself for not taking my camera, but we had lots of fun. 4. Tomorrow is supposed to be a beautiful day with temps in the low 60s so we are gonna go to the park and throw the frisbee around and then come back here and watch Star Wars III. 5. Today hubby and I went to my doc and she is thrilled with how well I am doing. My blood sugar is great and my cholesterol is coming down and my blood pressure is perfect! She said to give it a little more time for my eyes to go back to normal and that if my hands don't stop with the numbness she'll send me to a hand clinic. 6. Friday I go to the eye doc for a baseline test of my eyes. I still don't know what that is but I'll find out Friday. 7. I'm really getting used to cooking and eating healthy and actually enjoying it. 8. Hubby got a job offer today but its not the one he really wants. He's still hoping to hear from the folks he just interviewed with that pays really well. The job he was offered today pays a little less than what he is making now so he'd have to work the new job fulltime and the job he has now parttime, but he would have his foot in the door of the NY school system which is what he wants to retire from. 9. We are talking it over a lot and have until Friday to give them an answer. It would be so awesome if we heard from the great job before then. Ya'll please say a prayer for us that the right job comes along whatever that may be. 10. If hubby gets a job with the school system it would be the first time in 12 years that he would work only days with weekends off. We'd have normal folk's hours!!! OMG!!! LOL

1. I meant to add: Juju, I got some magnifying glasses for $10 and they work great! Of course, I can't wear them too often or for very long or they will make my eyesight worse, but they work great for reading in bed! The site you posted for me gave me lots of great ideas! Thanks for your help! 1.1. Marm, I don't know if you saw my question to you in my folder but take a look when you get a chance. Thanks!

1. I ALMOST got to pick up JujuKitty, but WE would just have none of that! JujuKitty isn't so shy and will butt her little black head against the food can. It is amazing how much this cat looks like the one I had when I was growing up. 2. I am really tired today, but I'll make it through! I am hoping to stay awake for Survivor tonight...I missed Amazing Race on Tuesday due to a meeting. I really need to get a DVR. My old old old VCR doesn't work with my digital cable. DANG!

1. a DVR wouldn't work for me because i record at home and bring the tapes to work to watch. i bet they are nice though. 2. i slept 8 1/2 hours last night. i have been droopy all day. i believe the saying "the more sleep you get, the more you want." 3. i don't watch the west wing but the live show sunday sounds interesting. i may record it and watch.

1. The wind is blowing hard today and my sinus' are very unhappy. They've been pretty bad for a couple weeks now, but today is worse. If I take some sinus pills I can be out of it the rest of the day, if I don't I'll be miserable. I'm getting fairly tired of choosing which is less a pain in the neck, lol. 2. I'm thinking locking the kids in their rooms for the next few years might be a good idea. Monday Caleb brings home a math test, 98%. Yesterday he brings home a spelling test thats 115% (he got the bonus words right) and another math test that was a 57%. Know what he said? Hey mom, it's almost a D! Sad thing is, it was all stuff he knew. He missed points on leaving out dollar signs and adding things like 1 and 2 wrong. Simple mistakes that he wasn't paying attention to, but this time so many of them. I don't know what to do with him. Least the A's will balance out the D's and F's right? I'm so frustrated cuz this isn't stuff I can work with him on, its just stuff he needs to focus on and make sure he remembers to put a $ where it belongs and to check for those silly mistakes he knows aren't right! 3. I'm really not grumpy today despite what my #1 and 2 facts sound like, lol. I cleaned up the house this morning, went to visit sis and baby niece and a friend, even did $4 of shopping at the bead store (I keep waiting for the lady to tell me if I'd bother spending more I could come in less, lol! Third time I've been in this week and I haven't spent over 5 bucks each trip.) Rest of the day I've worked on a watch for mom and planned out a couple bracelets for a friend. It's been a nice, quiet day really and I've enjoyed it.

3.5 Jewels, I hope Jenna is feeling better today. Croup is just horrible, they get no rest and neither do you! 4. Kady beat me to 4! I have to buy a birthday gift for my 4 year old neighbor boy and my 2 year old niece and have no idea what to get either one of them.

1. I'm feeling churlish as hell right now. 2. It was just one of those days where I woke up on the wrong side of bed and the day never really got better. 3. I feel sad and out of sorts, too. 4. It's only 5:40 p.m., but I feel like going to bed and hoping I wake up to a better day and a better mood tomorrow. 5. I guess I should just get offline and go read or something.

1. The baby has the hiccups right now and if feels quite strange. 2. She is pressed up against my ribs and making them quite sore. DD sat on my bladder the whole pregnancy, so I prefer this to that. 3. I bought DD a dora the explorer book about her backpack, and it showed Dora using scissors to cut a rope, anyone else see something wrong with that? Each time I read it, I make sure to inform DD that she isn't to touch scissors, and she must come ask mommy first. That is followed by a kiss. 4. She is doing really well at the game of "memory". She enjoys playing games and doing puzzles. At two, though, there aren't many games that will hold her attention span, and peg puzzles are a bore to her. Any thoughts would be appreciated. 5.Everyone in my family is constantly sick, or so it seems. My mom and gramma both have the flu and sis is always sick. DH has been sick once in the last year, and aside from a cold or two here or there, I haven't been sick since I had rheumatic flu at 19. It damaged my heart, but I think it might have made me immune to everything else. Is that possible? 6. I cleaned out my car today. It is going to rain so I didn't wash the outside. Something about a clean car relieves stress. I wish I could get up the gumption to clean my house now too. WARGOD I NEED YOU! I could hire little sis to do it for twenty bucks, I guess. She offered to do it for free, but she needs the money, so I'd pay her.
