1. Thank you to everyone for the support. As Eggie mentioned, in my folder there's a little update. But if you don't want to visit my folder, I'll just say, I feel like it went well! 2. Can you believe some parts of town actually got SNOW overnight? The only reason I know, is because when I went to the gas station, there were vehicles with snow on them. Sheesh. Really sick of winter! 3. My friend has called me a couple of times from Florida...it's nice and warm there...this morning/afternoon she is laying out by the pool...must be nice. 4. I am going to a chinese place later for lunch with another friend. I won a gift certificate for the place on the radio last week. I know they have alcohol there because the certificate says "does not count toward the purchase of liquor". sweet. 5. I hope it is nicer by next Saturday. Six Flags in the snow/cold doesn't sound like a hell of a lot of fun..just sayin'! Happy Saturday, factoiders

1. Wargod's windstorm got here last night around 8:30pm and it came fast and furious! 2. The trees looked like they dancing to Chubby Checker's Twist and Shout! 3. There were tornadic conditions, too. 4. We are still getting some twisty breezes today. 5. I'm crossing all my digits for Jbean! 6. It's 5:22 pm CDT. Where did Saturday go?

1. I spent an hour and a half at Panera Bread to give an agent a chance to show my townhouse, and the client was a no-show. 2. And now I have someone else who wants to look at it at 3:30 today so I have to get out of my house again! 3. I hate this process. I'm in a really pissy mood. 4. If I knew I would end up with the house I want, I would be handling this better, I think. 5. Jbean, I hope you get the job! 6. I miss my mom. 7. It's pouring rain here today, but I think the worst of the storm system missed us.

1. Everything is crossed for Jbean! I'm pretzeling for you. 2. I'm pretzeling for Hermie too but she knows that. 3. I'm off to visit Mom. Since I had the daycare kids home all week, I didn't get much chance to get over there. 4. I'm also in the midst of a major hot flash. I need to be peeling the clothes off, not putting them back on. 5. I don't think Mom would appreciate me showing up naked. 6. Or my brother, who's their working on her leaky bathtub faucet. 7. What I'd really like to do is nap. 8. Maybe when I get back.

1. My little adopted sis called me tonight and asked me how much I like my nephew. I said bring him on over! She said, not for tonight, but... 2. She needs a baby sitter Monday - Friday, couple hours a morning, except for one or two days during the week when she needs someone to watch him from 8am to after 6pm. Does she really have to ask???? 3. She works a couple hours a morning from home and one or two days has to go out of town. Since he started to crawl he's also become aware of the fact that mommy is in her office and on the other side of that dang door and giving his grandpa pure hell cuz he wants to get to his mommy! 4. This is a great part time deal for me. I get to spend time with my nephew, I'll pick him up when I drop the kids off at school (they live across the street from the school,) he'll go home by lunch time most days, I earn a little bit of extra cash, and best of all, if I have something I absolutely have to do or a sick kid, his grandpa is still at home to take him on those rare occassions. 5. Poor little guys gonna be stuck in the living room tomorrow. I've got to go through the house and baby proof for him. Usually I just do temporary stuff like wrapping table legs, blocking the kitchen, den and bathroom, and making sure he can't get to outlets or electrical cords, but if he's gonna be here every day, he's gonna have to have more room to run around in. 6. Darren starts swings next Monday. We think. He made a comment today about if they lose one more person they won't have enough for a second shift. 7. On my way to pick up the kidlets today I got caught in traffic about two minutes after an accident happened. Everyone was ok and standing on the corner, but I was 10 minutes late picking up the kidlets. I don't worry about Caleb, but Dakota and the neighbor boy get a little upset if someone isn't right there to get them. Luckily a couple parents were a few minutes ahead of me and were able to tell the teacher and kids why some parents were late so they weren't too upset about it. 8. I really really need to go to the grocery store, lol. Darren complained about his skimpy lunch today and I'm out of dish soap. I think me and little nephew will have an outing first thing in the morning! 9. After close to a week of horrible winds here, today was nice and calm. I was finally able to sweep up my driveway and pick up fallen limbs and trash that had blown into the yard up. It looks so much better! I'm hoping it will stay calm for a while so we can enjoy it.

1. I fell asleep driving last night on the interstate and woke up when the car went into the ditch-like median. 2. I had crossed three lanes, but I was able to get the cruise control off and to get the car back on the interstate. 3. I am very lucky to be alive. 4. I am going home right now to sleep. I need to get this jet lag whipped. 5. My computer is at the repairshop. It won't boot for the tech guy either. 6. I am hoping that the data on my hard drive can be saved. 7. Juju kitty was back on Monday night and really hungry. 8. I wish that I had my calendar that is in my computer. I am sure that I am going to forget some appointment. 9. It is a beautiful day here! 10. Words of wisdom: Back up your hard drive and don't fall asleep when you are driving!

1. Happy Anniversary Mamie! I hope ya'll have a great day. 2. KP, it really is wonderful, lol. I get the best of it I think, I get him when he's wide awake and cheerful and happy and before he gets tired, hungry and cranky! 3. Yesterday (or Tuesday, since it's now Thursday) we had a boo boo. He was playing in the den and used the screen door, which was latched shut, to stand up. Of course the screen door swung open and he tumbled out face first onto the back patio. He wasn't too upset about falling or getting a bruise on his cheek, I think he was more upset that he thinks I let it happen, lol. He shot me the most disappointed look. 4. Today he had a blast. Dakota stayed home not feeling well but not sick (sinuses) and my youngest niece also came over. He spent all day being pampered and played with by the girls. I'm hoping tomorrow isn't a let down for him since he'll be alone. Monday is going to be his first full day here, from 8am til 6pm. 5. It was so cold here tonight that we had to light a fire and turn on the heaters. This weather has been so odd lately.

1. Thanks guys! We are going to dinner tonight and taking our daughter. Our son is working until 9 so he is missing out. 2. I don't know how we've made it this long. We just work hard at it. It's been plenty of better and plenty of worse but it's lasted. 3. War, how fun to have your nephew! It will be time that the both of you will cherish. 4. I have one of my daycare boys here with a broken ankle. 5. He got hurt playing football in school yesterday. 6. He is happily on the couch, foot up, Playstation controller in hand. One happy camper.

1. Dinner sounds fun Mamie! But owwww for your daycare boy. 2. I have a headache. 12:30 can't get here soon enough today cuz it is one of those days. 3. Baby was screaming when I picked him up and hasn't stopped since. He doesn't want to eat or drink, he doesn't want to play, he doesn't want to be held, picked up, put down or looked at. He is one very unhappy and tired little boy. 4. I am tired today. Haven't been sleeping very well lately. 5. Today the weather is pretty nice, it's about 60 degrees and just a bit of a breeze, but I got a severe weather warning update this morning that warns of a nasty storm coming in tonight, rain, cold, and snow in the mountains. 6. YAY! I finally found a toy that made the baby happy! Required me singing and dancing with Spongebob, but he is now happily chewing on Bob's nose. Of course with me singing he's probably too traumatized now to cry, that'll come later when he's having flashbacks. 7. The other day my sis and I were talking about one of us needing to help our aunt get in and out of the shower. Caleb walked in and thought we were talking about the dogs and said he'd do it for five bucks. We've been teasing him ever since about giving her a shower, lol. When we got home yesterday, I told him she'd had a shower, he said, "oh good!" I think for a minute he really thought we might ask him to do it, lol.

1. A while back I posted about Angelbob asking for his share in $$$ of his Dad's house and how his siblings twisted their knickers in wads over it. 2. Two of the three now have straightened out their underware and the third, tho irritated, is getting a loan to buy Angelbob's share. 3. So we will have the $$$ in 2-3 weeks. 4. I also posted about having to move... well, we decided to use the $$$ to buy a new mobile home. 5, It's puuurdy, and in a nice gated community. We're filling out the applications in the next few days but with a big down payment should have no problem getting approval. 6. We've had a rotten year, things are FINALLY smothing out! 7. I am so looking forward to moving, to a new home, and away from shady landlord-pseudo-friends! 8. Hey Wargod, I'm about to go shower. I thought about asking if Caleb would help for $5 but re-thought. Nope, don't think I'll go there!

1. LOL Cheri, we finally told my aunt about it and now everytime she sees Caleb she asks him he wants to earn $5. Totally cracks us up. 2. Darren started swing shift today. He's having a lot of trouble already with it. He can't sleep past 4am! He took a couple long naps this weekend but was still getting up way too early, this morning though he slept in til 6:30. He did have to take a nap later in the morning. I am thinking the next week or so will be pretty rough on him! 3. The kids are not handling it well at all, though when they heard about it they were ok with it. Reality is much different than just talking about it. 4. Caleb keeps asking me when dads getting home and if he'll get to see him in the morning. 5. Dakota has been teary since getting home from school and runs to the phone everytime it rings even though we've told her he might not get the chance to call. 6. Several minutes since I typed #5, Darren got the chance to call and talked to the kids. The kids are happier now. 7. They finished their science projects today. They'll be displayed Wednesday night at open house. 8. My little nephew isn't going to come over tomorrow. I've gotten used to him being here in the mornings, but it'll be nice to have a morning free too. 9. I'm not sure I'm liking Darren working swings either. When he called he told me they're doing OT tonight, so he won't be home til at least 1.

1. Lol War, just tell Caleb he can start up a business and earn extra money helping little old ladies bathe! 2. I hated it when my husband worked swings too, way back when. It's position just so, so that you never really see them. 3. Lol nothing exciting going on in my world. "WILL SHE MAKE IT TO TEN?" 5. I'm cleaning a duplex we might have to move into before weget the mobile home. 6. The question is will the Chronic Fatigue kick my rear before I kick my son's for volunteering to clean it then bailing. 7. My chipmunk cheeks, brought on by swollen glands, tells me the CFS has already won. 8. I still have to clean the stove and refrigerator. 9. Walls can wait til I know if I have to live in the place. 10. And she made it to ten, folks.

1. WHOOWHOO! I am posting from my newly resussitate laptop! The data recover folks have capped the recovery at $1275, and since my career is at stake, I say SOLD. 2. Still don't have firefox, microsoft office or adobe or anything else loaded. 3. I am going to "Urinetown, the musical" tonight. OH, maybe most importantly....one of my gentleman friends from high school tracked me down on facebook. He's a great guy and it sure was fun to see "Your old singing partner" wants to add you as a facebook friend.

1. WHERE is everybody??? 2. My Mom is coming to visit in a few minutes. Surprise!! Glad she called and that the housekeeper was here today. 3. I am just giddy right now. My Facebook friend (I get the feeling that he will be known as FF, like GAL'S MM, etc.) has invited me to visit. We are trying to figure out a time when we are both not traveling before our plans for August. 4. AUGUST....that is just way to long to wait. Get me on the train next week. Oh, yeah, he doesn't live here, but in Chicago-land.

I should be hearing about the job I interviewed for in the next 2 days. 4. It is so difficult waiting to hear!!! Ugh!! 5. Good vibes would be appreciated!

1. My eyes are getting real bad, and have an appt. to get them checked. I will probably have to wear progressive lenses (bifocals) full time now. 2. My Mom's house is sold (under contract) and is supposed to close May 31. 3. I will have enough money from that to live off for a while. And, I will finally have my very own vehicle; something I've been without for almost 4 years. 4. I am thinking of getting a Mazda Tribute or a Ford Escape. Something in the compact SUV line, so that I can have good wheels for traversing over mountain passes in the winter. 5. I am also planning to move over to the other side of the state and get an apartment or house to rent somewhere in the Bremerton/Gig Harbor area, where Jim and I plan to live our lives together. 6. I'm still working on my drawings, and hope to build up an inventory to sell them. I have looked into Cafepress.com where I can sell my art on different items like mugs, mouse pads, t-shirts and the like. As soon as I can, I'm getting my business license and am thinking of naming my business Desert Sage Artistry, or Wild Sage Artistry, or something like that. Anybody got any other ideas for a name?
