right now, sissy, if you can wait, holly is in driver's school, and if she passes she will have her papers to get her permit!

Right now I'm thinking that's great, landi. I won't be closing out my update until at least 7 board time, probably later knowing me. LOL

RIGHT NOW... JMM... I've got lots of before and after pix of my haircut & colour. Enjoy! It took me longer to upload, crop and put them into my folder than it took my stylist to change my fright-wig into a glam-do. ROFL.

Right now, the (long) answer is HERE with another question. Thanks for all previous and any subsequent answers. I just needed to know if I was being unreasonable.

right now, yesterday was productive, except for the losing 100 bucks at the casino! dd and i got to the new house about 10:00 a.m. and unloaded boxes. a cord of wood arrived at 11:00 and we got it stacked in the wood storage shed in 40 minutes. we then had 2 hours to kill before dh and friend arrived with fully-loaded suburban and trailer. (remember, we had to wait til saturday to get into our own storage area).
in that 2 hours, dd and i drove to mt. lassen--16 minutes from our driveway to the entrance. we bought a year's family pass for 25 bucks, which also includes entry to whiskeytown lake areas. we did a little walking around at lassen. then we went to lake mccumber on the way back to town and checked out the campsites, etc. okay, it's only 4 miles to our house, so we probably won't be camping there LOL. we then hit the 'big' grocery store and had lunch in their deli. one area of the store has 5 or 6 tables where you can eat. we then scoped out the store. some prices were high, others were reasonable. i got 3 bottles of cabernet for 10 bucks. we got back to the house about half an hour before the boys arrived. we then unloaded 90 boxes, some wood and some tools.
headed into redding and cleaned up and the boys and i went to the casino because my brother's band was playing in the martini bar there. okay, i did leave a couple of times to play the one armed bandits! got to hear some of my faves that my brother does including 'take 5' and 'give me one reason' (tracy chapman).
this is kind of funny. one of the guys in the band is mid-50's, still good looking and has been married probably 4 times. he is currently single. we dated in high school until my mom met him and told me we were somehow related. kinda killed the romance, although we stayed good friends. anyway, his dd just had her 3rd and 4th sons. the twins are 3 weeks old. well friend went to his oldest grandson's kindergarten play and had a carseat with a brand new baby in each hand.
"definite chick magnet!!" he was happy to inform us. "you think women go ga-ga over a newborn, try having identical twins with you." i think he plans to have the babies a lot LOLOL
anyway, dh and friend loaded up another car and trailer-ful and they are going up again tomorrow and coming back tomorrow. ugh. 12 hours round-trip with the loaded trailer. better them than me, although i am worried. they are already beat from this weekend. hopefully, they both go to bed early tonight and take turns driving. friend told me they made a pact, "the driver cannot fall asleep until the passenger is already sleeping."
eek!
and no one bought our house while we were away.
LANDI will be glad to hear we took the butcher block island back out of storage to make the kitchen look less empty! dh even says he will leave it if the new owner wants. wow!
but, who will know if they don't come to the house?! oh yeah...details :-)

right now, SILLY, do you know what street they are on or if they are before or after the town of shingletown coming east from redding? we are in starlite pines, about 6 miles past the actual town. if you can call two stores, one gas station, an insurance office a pizza parlor and an ace hardware store--part of the largest grocery store!--a 'downtown'. that store has everything from jalapeno poppers to ping pong balls!

Right now I am not entirely sure Tabby. I know it is a brand new home that was just built and somewhat next to a school? I will be talking with her tomorrow. I am going to be spending the first week of the new year with her-maybe we can meet up!

Right now, just waiting for the guys to get home from the Raider game. Starting dinner and getting caught up on laundry. How the excitement is killing me!

right now, silly, too cool! i think we will be spending the new year's there, too! dd has to be back to school that monday after the holiday, though. maybe i'll send dh back with her for that week, so we can meet? our home is 25 years old...
the only school i know of is black butte, which is probably about 7 or 8 miles from where we are. still close, by tvch standards!! shingletown has dinner and bingo each monday night at the fire station on alward drive. that will probably be my excitement for the next several years!! that station is about 4 miles from my house, so probably equidistant for your friend.
let's stay in touch and see what pans out.

right now, if it's black butte, it's about 8 or 9 miles per mapquest, but they tell you to take ritts mill road rather than starlite pines to our house. good intentions, but ritts has a closed and locked gate and appears to be partly a dirt road! starlite is your next road after ritts...
if she means the christian academy, it's only 2 miles from my house.
so, it depends if she is near ponderosa (black butte) or hidden views which is where the christian school is.
still close, no matter which school!

right now, aaaaack, landi! we pay 3,400 year for kyle and 1,800 year for caitlin for insurance. and caitlin is a 4.5 GPA (kyle was a 4.0), on the board at habitat, head of the history club, ranked #4 out of 600 seniors, and that is with the 'good student' discount! we used to pay over 8k a year for insurance. we now pay just over 6k a year because dh is not commuting almost 200 miles per day and we dropped the suburban to liability only.
scary stuff for parents! good and fun news for greekbread :-)
from the picture, i can see you will not be able to drive your own car very often once dd gets ahold of her full license and the keys...

Yikes...thanks for the warning Landi J/K-really congrats!

Right now, I will get the scoop tomorrow from her Tabby. That is cool! I will be up there a lot I bet-she is one of my closest friends. She is a waitress at the Black Bear Diner as well. She has been living in Yreka with her inlaws for quite awhile-saving for their first home.

Right now, my tummy isn't feeling very good and nothing is helping it...

hmmmm, right now, we have geico, which costs us 20% less than other insurances due to my husband being retired from the air force. both kids drive 1999 cars. how old does 'old' mean as to age of a car to get the 1k a year rate?
and insurances we talked with (at least 8 or 9 of them we contacted) won't let us have just liability on the cars that kids drive...so if you can get it for 1k, i need the name of YOUR insurance company!

right now, it was farmer's insurance. they won't let you just get liability. at least my agent won't. and it was for the 87 nissan. and he said that would go up just a bit more for early 90's. i also get multi discounts because they have my home and greekbread's life insurance. oh and the boat insurance. it helps discount wise to have everything with them.

right now, farmer's was the most expensive insurance company i contacted two years ago, other than one other company...must just be our area?
when we had AAA, we also had our term life and house insurance with them...they wanted 9,200/yr just for the car insurance when we dropped them 2 years ago. scary stuff! and if you have even the smallest claim, your rates go up. that's why we paid the entire 350 bucks to have the jetta windshield replaced. an increase would have been more than that.
insurances suck!
