1. I have been drinking plumSmart lately, and while I love it, it's making my digestive system go into overdrive. I am thinking it aint worth it.
2. The picture of Prince William in the Hollywood Gossip thread has me thinking of other things besides work.
3. I am stressing over being a first time home buyer. How in the world am I going to make that payments?
4. Kids kept us up all night last night. DD1 was just screaming in her room. We had to put her back in her room several times after she came in and woke up her sister.
5. I am going to go by the house today and take some pictures to post. Does anyone know anything about septic systems. I had to sign an addendum about the septic system.
6. I love Disneyland and can't wait until the kids are older so we can take them.
7. The countdown to move in is 44 days.

1. HE REACHED THE SUMMIT!!

2. DH has been at Mt Rainier, his "midlife crisis" I calls it - mountain climbing!!

3. Went with a tour group, more than 20

4. several made it halfway and stayed at that campsite. Some got to the crater, and stayed, and a few - DH went and signed the summit, he is so ecstatic!!

5. One man fell in a crevice something about melting under the glacier, something cracked, he fell.. took over an hour to get him out, and rescued... *breathing normal now...

6. One fell and broke her finger... minor detail!!

7. His cell didnt work!! Too many mountains, not enough towers??!! lol

8. He'll be home tomorrow around 10pm cst!! YEAH!! He's alive!! (on a practice hike the clouds were so thick they couldnt see their hands, they went from pole to pole, and it was intense according to dh... that night the news reported at the same area, location a lone hiker fell to her death... *sad)

1. Congrats to your dh Reader! What an accomplishment for him!

2. Today is the last day of school for the kidlets, technically.

3. Dakota will be going for one more week, half days, for some extra tutoring in spelling.

4. I figure it won't cut into her summer too much to go an extra fifteen hours and the tutoring can only benefit her.

5. They get out at 1 today and I have done nothing, lol! I think I'm going to call it moms day off today.

6. Kids went to the park yesterday to watch one of their friends play a baseball (championship) game. Hehe, Caleb had said he wasn't going so they were going to drive Kota home. We got over there and he wanted to stay so Darren and I decided to go out to dinner. I told the kids step mom I had my cell phone, give us a call, she gave me a funny look and said something about squishing the four kids in the back of their car.

7. It didn't even dawn on me til we left that she thought they were going to have to drive the kids home. I didn't really expect them to with having both of them and a their kids and them and a small car, but I also hadn't given any thought to us going back to get them, LOL! When we went back to pick them up we were laughing about it cuz neither us or them had given any thought to how my kids were getting home other than her thinking she had to squish them in the car.

8. My middle nephews birthday is next week, party this weekend and I have no idea what to get him. He doesn't have a clue what he wants. I'm thinking I'll give him some cash and he can decide for himself what to do with it.

9. Ok dangit, the neighbors out mowing his lawn, a huge reminder to me that I'm sitting here being lazy and he's really ruining moms day off! I'm going to have to get some housework done cuz of him!

1. So we have company coming over tonight and I am TRIPPING, my cleaning lady is out of town and I haven't been home to clean on weekends in a couple of weeks. Dust bunnies ago-go;

2. Colossus and I both have LONG lists of things to do today, and since it's his side of the family we're entertaining along with friends, Colossus has the longer list;

3. Cut to 5 a.m. Colossus is cleaning the garage. It's a guy thing. Have company, clean garage. Fine;

4. Cut to 8 a.m. Colossus is barfing his guts out on the living room floor. Trying to redirect him to the bathroom would not have worked, he was praying to pagan gods and screaming for his mother and begging for a swift and less painful death;

5. So he gets through with this and comes into the family room to talk with me. I asked him if he realized his eyes were bulging out of his head and could they please get reacquainted with their sockets before company arrives?

6. He said thank you, he was kind of feeling like Sidney Greenstreet, and I said no, it's more of cross between Jackie Gleason and Rodney Dangerfield type deal you have going on. Then he asked me for a kiss. I am a bad wife. I refused;

7. I then suggested he take a shower since he'd barfed himself silly, he said he didn't barf, he exfoliated his intestines and if he got in the shower it would only be to put his mouth over the nozzle because that's the only way his teeth were ever going to feel clean again;

8. Colossus then announced he'd had a revelation while exfoliating his intestines, and I asked him whether there were angels and harps involved, or was it more of the bealzebub/pitchfork type situation?

9. He said it was none of the above, it was more of a tits and ass and porn revelation, he kind of got in touch with his inner teenager;

10. As a result of all of the above, my house is a bigger wreck than it was in the first place, we've been laughing too hard to work, and we haven't checked off a single item on either of our lists. Sigh. Company arrives in less than 6 hours.

1.1 GAL - those 10 facts were the funniest 10 facts I've read in a long time! I sincerely hope Colossus feels better soon and you get your house in order before company arrives. Good luck!

1.2 We're supposed to be getting ready to go away for the evening, instead we sit here watching The Ulitimate Fighter on Spike TV.

1.3 As a belated 27th birthday celebration for me, we're going to a wine festival up in the Poconos and the weather is not on our side.

1.4 After that we're going to a resort to spend the evening. This resort has a few clubs/bars so we're gonna get our groove on tonight!

1.5 Another couple is going with us...they just recently got engaged so this is kind of a celebration for them too.

Have a great weekend TVCH!

1.8 Wargod, can we talk girl, you got a few minutes? Can I buy you a plane ticket?

1.9 Froggie, he is fine, I was concerned for a minute he'd poisoned himself while poisoning the mosquitos around our deck, but he actually just has an allergy to housecleaning. EVERY FRIKKIN TIME, it's one thing or another. But he's still a luvable lug.

1.10 Well the garage is sparkling, but it wasn't on either of our lists. Maybe we can have the party out there.

1.11 Buttercup, Froggie, Mocha, Lady . . . sigh. I have to admit it was pretty damned funny, but I'm still going to have to beg our guests for forgiveness for the dust on my baseboards. You guys want to come to a barbecue? That's held out in the garage?

1. Ha, Gal I was so thinking about you Thursday! I was picking the kids up from school and listening to the radio when htey did a traffic update. Apparently that morning or afternoon there'd been a major backup on one of the freeways when a big rig slammed his brakes too hard and jack knifed his truck. He was carrying something like 45,000 lbs of canned tomatoes or tomato paste which went all over the street and it took crews hours to clean it up. Reminded me of you throwing cans at Colossus !

2. Can't offer much help on the cleaning though! Parts of my house look like a tornado went through it as I clean out closets and cabinets. Right now my den and bedroom are downright embarrassing!

1.1 ROFL!! He almost got introduced to a can of Lemon Pledge in the same fashion this morning, Wargod. I still wave cans of tomato paste at him when he's dancing on my last nerve. It is a fast and effective message.

1.3 Oh, shit on that, Granny - he invited the company, he has to clean too. BTW, he's sending you smooches but I wouldn't take them from him if I were you. I'm still not convinced his mouth is fresh and minty, even after a few powerwashes and Scope-titude of monolithic proportions.

1.4 I don't know who I think I'm kidding, I'm writing this as I down a Coors Light and smoke a Camel Light 100. Glass houses, glass houses.

1.5 "Granny Does Floors and Indy at the Same Time!!" It could be a new porn flick, it might have even been the revelation that Colossus had this morning while exfoliating his intestines. Hmmmm . . . . Tess, you might be on to something here.

1. Reiki and I are in NYC! WHOO HOO!

2. It is raining here, thankfully, since it was hotter than Hell's Kitchen yesterday.

3. I saw the 25th Annual Putnam county spelling bee Thursday. Today was a backstage tour of Wicked, and two plays: Awake and Sing and History Boys. Yesterday was Faith Healers with Cherry Jones, Ralph Feinnes and Ian McDirmond (where else could you see Lord Voldemort and the Emperor from Star Wars in the same show....AND autographs....PRICELESS) Tomorrow...who knows!

1. Dakota's at her very first sleep over tonight. The first she's had at a friends that is! She was so excited when I dropped her off she barely had time to say goodbye.

2. Darren got home from his poker game last night close to 2 am. Then he got up at 5:30 am to go play golf with some of the same guys. When he got home at 2:30 this afternoon he looked ready to drop. LOL, I live off 3-4 hours of sleep, he doesn't! He did manage to stay awake til 9, barely before stumbling off to bed.

3. I am so excited about this All-Star season of Big Brother! Even more excited about the chats we have lined up here (Sunday with Danielle, Monday with Erika, and Tuesday with Bunky!) How fun is that???

4. The kids brought home report cards Thursday. Caleb got A's and B's, except for that one D in math (GRRRRRRR!) For the most part, he did really well and we are proud of him, though he will be working on that math this summer, lol! He also came home with a citizenship award, which proudly has fridge space next to Kota's Student of the Month award. Dakota doesn't get letter grades yet, 1, 2, and 3 for the lower grades. Her's was all 1's (great or A's, lol) and 2's. Her teacher wrote in the comments section that she scored "Advanced" on the math portion of the tests they took last month and that she was the best math student in class. I'm thinking that's got to come from Darren's side of the family unless my step dad managed to somehow pass that on to her cuz she certainly didn't get it from my side!

1. Congrats Auntie Jbean! He is precious.

2. The Wine Fest was wonderful and the weather cooperated, thankfully.

3. We tried lots of wine and found quite a few "favorites" but limited ourselves to only buying three bottles.

4. We're definitely planning on attending next year but will go for the full two days as there is much to see and do...and drink!

5. On a sad note...Steve got a phone call this morning from a former co-worker/friend who shared some rather upsetting news. Chris, another former co-worker and good friend of ours, passed away late Friday night from a heart attack. He was only 43.

6. I am a firm believer in things happening for a reason, even more so now...last Friday due to some plans of mine changing Steve and I ended up in the area where Chris lives (about an hour away) and on a lark called him to see what he was up to and luckily we were able to get together with him and his wife for a few drinks and conversation. Little did we know it would be the last time we'd see him, but if those plans of mine hadn't of changed we wouldn't have gotten the chance to see him at all. Rest in peace, dear friend.

1. First, it's a good thing I dropped by this thread. Wargod???...you're clearly out of number order...(hee-hee).

2. Second, awww Froggiegirl....what an amazing set of facts. I'm sorry for the loss of your friend Chris.

3. I worked 6 hours straight today at the office and although I got some stuff out of the way, I sit here feeling like not much got done...ugh...

4. I treated myself to a bling ring...LOL! It's a synthetic pink sapphire on sterling silver and it's really not my usual style of ring but WHAT THE HECK!! I'm feeling the bling fling thing coming out of me and I acted upon it...lol.

5. Tonight I'm grilling some Salmon for dinner.

6. I'm going to go sit in the sun for a while...work on that tan.

7. I miss you guys and it's fun to pop in every now and then and read what you've been factoiding about.

1. Oops, caught! That was supposed to be a 1.2 fact, LOL.

2. Dakota starts intercession in the morning. We let her stay up a little late tonight and she kept telling us she had to go to bed cuz she has school, lol.

3. She's pretty excited too. Not for the tutoring! Her little friend she spent the night with Friday night is going to come over afterwards for a few hours. I'm going to pick both of them up and bring them home to play on the waterslide.

4. Caleb's a little upset about it cuz the friends brothers not home this week and won't be able to come with his sister to play with Caleb.

5. He's been moping around all day cuz he'll be stuck with two girls tomorrow, lol. I reminded him that it would be a great day to clean his room and catch up on his chores. We told him if he did, we'll arrange for my nephews to come here for a sleep over.

6. I'm waiting on some laundry to finish so I don't have to leave it in the dryer overnight. I hate doing laundry!

7. We miss you too, Coco! It's nice to see you pop in when you can and let us catch up on what you've been doing!

8. Froggie, I am so sorry to hear about your friend Chris.
