RN, lol, maybe Beek! I actually did get some sleep before that. I got in bed just after 2, Darren rolled over and we laid there talking for a few minutes (just normal stuff too, what time was he getting off, would he be able to take Kota to practice, he reminded me to print out her book report this morning) and then he got up and took a shower. I listed to the water thinking how soothing it sounded and then dammit had to pee, lol. I was still awake when he left at 3:15 and for a while after that. So I got about an hour and 20 minutes of sleep before I woke up after the nightmare and got up. I did get a little more sleep. I was awake when Caleb got up at 6, he got cereal, set down and turned the tv on, ate, then rinsed his bowl out and went to take a shower. Fell asleep and he woke me up about 45 minutes later to take him to school. That was it though. I'm about to go take a nap now. With nephew not here, Darren working late and Caleb maybe having anime club after school, Dakota should be the earliest one home at 3:30 (it's only 10 now.) There is a chance Caleb's anime club will be cancelled today so he could be home at 2. Either way I can get a few hours in!

RN it's a conspiracy to keep me exhausted! I finally got to sleep and was apparently sleeping rather well (cuz when I woke up the puppy was laying on my chest licking my neck!) when the phone rang. It was Darren wanting to know if we had plans tomorrow morning cuz his buddies wanna know if he wants to go golfing and out for a few beers. I was almost mad at him for waking me up til I realized he'd have no way of knowing I was back up not long after he left this morning!

Right now I have braved the elements once again to join you all at the clubhouse. It was no easy feat. My nephew and his wife are out of town attending a funeral for her grandfather, so hubby and I came over to tend to the fire this morning, got the van stuck in our driveway, so hubby had to go and get the tractor to pull it out. Geesh...I remember how easy it was to just walk into the living room and log on! (But that was the problem...it was too easy. This way is much better for me and my life.)

RN, I'm wondering why it's so quiet here at TVCH. I know it slows down on weekends, but really, there are so few posts!!

RN I just managed to squeeze into a black skirt and blouse and boots to where to hubby's company dinner. We don't have to be there until 6 so I know I'm getting dressed early but I was afraid I might have to try on a bunch of clothes to find something that fits. This barely does.

RN, I'm finally reading more posts again today. Trying to pull myself back to "normal" after being socked with some nasty stomach flu late Wed. night. I was only between the bathroom and bedroom all day Thurs. and just felt so weak from it all on Friday that I had to stay home again and simply rest. I felt so bad having to miss the Valentine's Day Party with my students too. I was not there for the other two parties earlier this year since I was on leave due to my surgery. They were so excited that I would finally be there for this one. I guess this just isn't my year! I think not being at school the first half of the year and basically at home did not build up my immune system as well. I seem to be catching everything too easily from my students when they are sick. I have some nice treats saved for them and we'll have to have a little post-celebration on Tuesday this week. I was also extremely saddened when hearing the news about the tragedy at NIU. I happened to have my radio on in bed and heard them reporting about it about 15 minutes after it first happened. Of course my first thought was about my niece who is there. Fortunately, my brother called about 20 minutes later to say that she was shaken, but okay. She was going to go and do some work in a computer lab by that building, but turned around and decided not to go after all. (Thank goodness!) She has a friend who was shot in the arm, but is okay. Unfortunately, the girl's boyfriend did not survive. What incredible sadness! NIU is the alma mater of nearly everyone in the past two generations of my family, so this hit very close to home. The news coverage is still constant about it here and every time I hear about it again it still sickens me and brings me nearly to tears. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the students, their families and staff at NIU. I'm sure that life will carry on there, but how easy will it be for many of those students to freely learn having that in the back of their minds? College should be one of the pinnacle times for learning, growing, and freedom. (At least that's what I've always felt.) Thank goodness I was blessed with that experience without worries of threats or fear. Didn't mean for this to turn into a Dennis Miller rant, but TVCH is the board that I post on and I just needed to get that out of my system after the past few days. So, RN I'm still kind of feeling physically and mentally wiped out.

Wow, I guess I'm not the only one then! Found the last half of "Say Anything" and "Sixteen Candles" is next. I might just settle for those old favorites tonight.

RN, waiting for sis and bil to come pick up the baby. They're supposed to call so I can just run her out. Sis just called, they were getting food in fast food drive thru, they watched a car go off the freeway. She's on the phone now, they're trying to get over to the car if they can to find out if the person/people need help. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts for whoever is in the car. That's how our uncle's accident happened when we were very young kids.

RN sis and bil just showed up. Said the car was upside down in the wash between the freeway and my neighborhood, they didn't see anyone getting out of the car. They were trying to figure out if they could drive over there or not when the cops showed up followed by a firetruck. Told the cops they saw the car fly off the freeway but that was all they saw, gave them their names and phone number and were told to leave. While we were standing in my driveway just a minute ago, heard more sirens. Doesn't sound good.

RN, there was nothing in the paper about the accident but sis reminded me it was late enough it wouldn't have made today's paper. About half an hour after they left, I heard the firetruck and ambulance (sirens going) leave so I'm guessing they took someone to the hospital.
