1. We got a new water heater last year, a big one because I lurv long, hot showers;

2. Got a new garden tub, another big one, and the water heater doesn't heat up enough water to fill it;

3. Got a new heat pump to circulate the water in the garden tub;

4. But oh wait, Colossus says "Uh . . . now just a minute, I think I set the new water heater to 1/2 capacity when we got it. Let me check;"

5. Why can't guys leave shit alone? We have plenty of hot water and now a heat pump that we don't need. PS PTL for new washer and dryer, they have freed me from my weekend shackles. Next: new dishwasher.

1. I'll take 8.

2. Eggie, did you ever see Spike up near where Buffy lived, lol? They actually filmed quite a few episodes out here (almost anytime you see desert scenes on Buffy, they were out here.) Unfortunately since it's not uncommon for Hollywood to come here to film, it's not really reported on til after there gone so no stalking the local nice hotel by me dangit.

3. Kids got their report cards, A's and B's all around. Dakota's teacher wrote a comment that when it comes to reading fluency, she believes Dakota could be doing better but that she lacks confidence and needs to practice more at home and work on building her confidence.

4. I'm not quite sure how to go about building her confidence short of throwing her in front of a group of people and asking her to read to them and I'm not gonna do that.

5. Darren got home super early today at 2:30 and we got to spend half an hour alone together before the kids got home, something that rarely happens! We spent it in bed, talking of course, LOL. Seriously, we were talking! I'd just gotten out of the shower and was getting dressed when he got home.

6. He also came home with a $25 gift certificate to Red Lobster. They have this thing at work where they are asked to nominate someone who's done something outside their regular job duties and then once a month they pick one and give them and the person who nominated them each a gift card. Well, Darren had nominated one guy who had stepped in to help in Darren's dept. after his own shift was over and that guy was picked.

7. Since the kids had gotten good report cards and he got the raise earlier this week and had the gift card, we took the kids to Red Lobster to celebrate.

8. Dakota was thrilled, she got her a plate of crab legs and got to nibble off Darren's plate (lobster tail and some clam something or other) and enjoyed every bite. Caleb, like me, doesn't care for a whole lot of seafood, but he did order fried shrimp and enjoyed it. He also took a bite of everything Darren had and Dakota's crab and then declared that yep, he was positive, he really didn't like it, lol.

1. First time I saw a water heater was hmm, last year or year before. Darren had gone fishing or golfing (he was gone til late in the afternoon) and Caleb came running in to wake me up about 7am to tell me there was water on the floor. I flew out of bed and ran out into the living room (ours is in a closet behind the front door) and opened the closet and got soaked, lol. I managed to get it turned off and cleaned up the mess then set here all day til Darren got home and was able to replace it.

1. After reading about replacing hot water heaters, I am ever so much thankful for my apartment and the maintenance crew that comes with it!

2. Internal clocks are irritating when one is on vacation! I usually get up at 4:30 a.m. for work and was looking forward to sleeping in for a week. This is the second day in a row that I woke up thinking it had to be at least 8:00 a.m. only to find it to be 4:30-ish! After laying in bed for 15 minutes staring at the ceiling, I gave up and here I am!

1. I had a nice surprise visit from my cousin Chuck and his 3 dogs last night.

2. He has 3 german shepards. Two are older dogs and one is a puppy. They were in my neighborhood cuz the puppy was getting her booster shots. She is now 26 lbs. with the biggest puppy paws.

3. My dog Cali wasn't sure what to make of the visit but I think she enjoyed it too. Cali showed them her backyard proudly. This is the only the second time Chuck has brought the dogs with him to visit.

4. Getting ready to take take a shower with my new water hot water heater. Gal your water heater story made me smile.

5. I wake up about 4:30 am everyday - no matter what time I go bed. Sometimes my son is just getting home when I get up. He always tells me that it sucks that I wake up so early :-).

6. Hi Sloth! I refreshed before I posted this and there you were with 5 facts. I too love how active this thread is.

1. I'm thinking this thread hasn't been this active in years! I love it!

2. I am so happy it's finally the weekend!

3. What I'm not overjoyed about is the fact that it is already time for daylight savings. What's up with that? I hear it will end later than usual this year, too. That sucks. I mean, I'm all for it being lighter outside, longer, but quit jacking with it!

4. Good thing I slept extra late this morning. I'm going to need it!

5. I have already used all my anytime cell phone minutes for the month (locking the keys in the car didn't help much the other day). They don't renew until the 18th! I even added more minutes to my plan on the cingular site, but it won't take effect til then either! I've never gone over my allotted minutes in the 7 years that I've had a cell phone!

6. I went shopping after work yesterday for a new top to wear out tonight. I went to Cato, and got 2 tops for $20 - both were on clearance. woo hoo! I love a bargain!

7. Next Saturday I am signed up for a bowling event with my work for a big brothers big sisters charity event. The last time I bowled was in 1999, although I did beat everyone I was with (I was on a double date - so 2 guys and another girl, lol). I'm hoping I can still bowl a little...it will be fun. I actually really like bowling, I just never go!

8. I need to get moving...I have a few errands to run today. Need to tan and go to the mall for a bit. Did I mention that I get to eat Japanese food tonight?

8.1 Welcome to all the new fact posters. It's awesome to see new folks in here!

8.2 Just a reminder that voting starts tomorrow for the Pet Idol contest that I entered Miss Lola in. The link is www.springfieldnews-leader.com/petidol. Lola's number is 558.

1. Welcome Cheri and all the other newbies posting in this awesome thread!

2. I took the time to scroll up and I saw Jimmer's offer to post how this thread works. Yay!!

3. My furbabies do not understand that it's the weekend...ugh. They still woke me up at 6am for their breakfast and vitamin.

4. How Egbob sleeps through this, I do not know.

5. For the newbies, I have a dh and three kidlet young adults. One dd and two ds's.

6. I became a great auntie for the first time on February 18th and it is so wonderful to hold a newborn once again!!

7. I won a bid on eBay and bought my little sister a "Grannie Annie" doll to celebrate her first born grandchild. She loved Grannie Annie!!

8. Have a great day Factoiders of TVCH!!

9. hey jbeanie!! So good seeing you here again!
