RN if anyones purchased an Easy-Bake Oven since May of 2006, they've been recalled because kids hands can get caught in the opening. We haven't had that happen, but the little paddle thingie you stick in to get the pans out has been getting stuck so I requested a retrofit kit here: Easy-Bake Oven Recall

RN, that was totally easy. I just got an email back from Hasbro informing me that my retrofit kit was going to be mailed immediately along with a pamphlet for all the warnings associated with it (things like not intended for children under 8 and don't leave them unintended!) LOL, Vac, Kota loves the easy bake oven. However, if she's doing something for more than just her and Caleb it takes so long to do it's easier to cook it in the real oven. She's home for the second day this week sick. At times I think she's feeling better then she's not. I know right now the biggest problem is that she's not getting good sleep at night with the couch so she's absolutely exhausted and that makes it harder for her to feel better. Her teacher called me and told me that as long as she's back by Thursday she's not going to worry about the work in class or homework she's missing. She can pick up where they left off with no problems, except for in spelling and she's going to give her a pass for that this week. The only thing she really has to worry about is a paper she has due Friday on George Washington and we've been slowly working on that for a few days.

Right now ... I'm so sorry to hear that Kota is sick. My son was out for 3 days last week with a high fever & cold symptoms. It's going around right now. It's very sweet that she's concerned about her school work. I sure hope she feels better soon!!! Btw ... love peas!!!

RN, Cnd, you can come to Chicago area and run over all the pigeons and Canada geese you can. Please. West Nile Virus took care of the crows. I like animals and birds (I've always had at least one bird for years and years), but them pigeons and geese are dirty birds. Ugh! Some would say the same thing about squirrels, but squirrels are cute.

RN she has been planning to demote him for some time but other work issues keep getting in the way. we are having 3 separate meetings at the same time to realign the duties. i am meeting with the manager that will inherit the demoted employees duties. and, another manager is meeting with an employee to let them know they are being promoted. by doing all of them at the same time in a coordinated effort helps keep the gossip down.

RN, Cnd, I understand how you feel. Maybe a funny story will help pick up your spirits. Many years ago, I was driving down a highway, and hit a bird. Saw it in the rear view mirror, flopping around, so I pulled over. It was clear that it wasn't gonna make it and was suffering. So I got a rock and ended that pain for it. Then I couldn't just leave it there, so I found a stick and was digging a hole to bury it in. Along comes some kind of countryish looking fella. He pulls over to see if he can help this befuddled blonde in distress. When I explained what I was doing, tears streaming down my face, he looked a tiny bit amused. But then he went back to his truck, got out a shovel, dug a hole, watched as I slid the birdie in, then covered it up. I thanked him, he just nodded his head, and asked if I would be okay to drive. I nodded, and off he went. And off I went, very late for my sailing excursion with a friend. Much as I had a hard time explaining to my friend why I was late; I still had to wonder what that fella was telling HIS friends about why he was late to wherever he was going.
