1. There is a hot, younger man cooking dinner in the kitchen. I could get used to this. And no, it is not my nephew. :P

2. Interesting March Madness day.

3. I have decided that I could live very happily in Smurf Village. I wonder if they need a librarian there?

4. My junior high school art teacher has friended me on Facebook and is all over my butt about writing and illustrating the children's books I want to write. She thinks I continue to struggle with depression in part because I'm stifling my creativity. She's actually spurred me on. I'm going to the art store tomorrow to see what I can get to get started.

1. Woo hoo, Hermi! Totally agree with Juju.

2. I am so sunburned I'm blistered. I remembered to tell the girls to put on sunscreen and forgot about myself.

3. Both of the kidlets are out cold. Dakota's tired from her game and Caleb's still getting over being sick. He just finished his antibiotics tonight, but is still dealing with some of the sinus stuff.

4. I promised middle niece I'd take her out for ice cream. Last week oldest niece went to aunts dr appt with me (she pushed the oxygen tank while I pushed the wheelchair) and middle niece was sad she couldn't go to help too. I like to do special things with the kids on their own once in a while and figured that was a good excuse for some auntie/niece time.

5. OMG(osh!) Three little teen age girls showed up on my porch this afternoon...looking for Caleb! What the heck is that about??? And then, even worse, he took off with them! They came over to hang out with him and his two buddies. I'm not sure I like this at all!

1. I need money for art supplies. Damn.

2. I have spent WAY too much time online today.

3. I need to put my laptop down and walk away.

4. But I can't because I am collecting eggs on FarmVille and that is entirely too important.

5. What happened with Caleb and the girls? Wowza.

6. I neglected to take my meds last night and think I might be a little wacky.

1. Hi Hermi :-)

I'm having that kind of day too. I was sick all week with a relapse of strep throat. The weather's cold, everything just feels cold. :-(

2. I'm watching the season finale of Caprica, it's pretty good but I'm not feeling it right now. Wishing I had the warmth of friends and family round me and it's really lacking at the moment.

1. Hermie, the situation is deteriorating quickly! The teenage girls are now hanging around here and his buddies houses with alarming frequency. And Caleb is trying to act way to casual about it. And then they show up wanting to go to the movies with the boys and ack!

2. The only consolation I get is that at least for the most part they are willing to hang around where the boys are already supervised by one of us parents. And that the girls seem to be at least as good of kids as the boys are. But, you know, they are still teenage girls wanting to hang out with my teenage boy.

3. Ack Nyheat, I hope you get better quickly.

4. Caleb had strep (and a sinus infection) last week. He was miserable most of the week. Dakota now has a sinus, ear, and throat infection. I've been at the drs office 4 times in the last five weeks with the two of them.

5. Dr said they are seeing a lot of sinus infections and strep lately. I totally believe it since everyone has been miserable and sick.

6. The girls have picture day tomorrow for little league. I wouldn't even take Dakota and just let her do make up pictures but if we do that she misses out on being in the team pic and thats no fun. So we will go just long enough to take the pictures and then leave. I've already warned middle niece that we won't be staying for her game. She's a bit disappointed which makes me sad.

7. Darren has to work both Saturday and Sunday. Kinda sucks, but he has next Thursday and Friday off for a four day weekend for Easter.

1. I've had a virus in my ears and throat for the last week....it's certainly going around. It started with sinus congestion three weeks ago.

2. I think I will be able to sing tomorrow, after sounding like a bass (Think Lancecrossfire!) for three weeks.

3. Gotta get my energy up...I have oodles of church services to play for this week.

4. It's the only time of the year that I am glad that I am paid per service. I will double my usual monthly salary in 7 days!

5. The state of Illinois budget sucks right now. Teachers and state police are getting laid off. I'm going to go on the job market and get out of dodge.

6. I am anxious for May/June to come and for the weather to be nice and summery!

7. No exotic travels for me (see note about the state of Illinois budget).

8. Well, I will spend a few days in White Plains, Missouri/Branson and Oklahoma for a conference.

Have a lovely and "getting healthier" week everyone!

1. I hope everyone is feeling better.

2. It sucks all over, Schoolmarm. I'm worried about my job, too. I should be safe for next school year, but we have been told "no promises" after that.

3. I have developed an inexplicable attraction to Gerard Butler.

4. I always thought he seemed like a horse's ass, but lately I've come to realize he is a pretty funny horse's ass.

5. I love a good sense of humor and an ability to laugh at oneself.

6. I even want to watch <shudder> The Bounty Hunter because of him.

7. Wargod, good luck with the teenage girls. My sister hasn't had to deal with that yet. Brendan is too little and uncool at the moment, lol.

8. Two more days until Spring Break.

9. I'll probably head for the hills to visit my parents and some friends.

1. We are all feeling, well better, not great. Everyone is having sinus problems this week, no infections, just congestion, headaches, etc. The wind has been miserable and kicking up all kinds of crap.

2. Sucks here too, they're closing the kids school. We're not sure of the details yet since the school district hasn't bothered to call or send letters and we're just getting second hand info from the kidlets. Sad thing is, an announcement was made at at least 4-5 other schools a couple weeks ago (along with our school) about this, but still no call or letter to parents.

3. The girl situation is just getting out of hand! Dakota's got a girlfriend down the street, she's a little bitty thing and I thought she was closer in age to Dakota, but come to find out she's Caleb's age and in several of his classes at school. While she hangs out with Kota mostly and comes for Kota to go hang out with her, she's convinced Caleb to hang out with them more and more often.

4. The other day he was complaining but she and Kota were hanging out with him and his buddies and one of his buddies spent the whole time staring at the girl. I don't think Caleb realized he probably was staring too, since he was able to very clearly tell me what this girl was wearing and exactly why his buddy was staring (think the little short pink shorts had something to do with it.) Ack!

5. Dakota has her blood draw tomorrow and then on Monday she'll officially start accutane. Her derm is not going to be pleased this month, she's had to go off her antibiotic (the one she takes daily for acne) twice already while being sick and taking a different antibiotic. It really shows when she doesn't take that pill.

6. We found out yesterday that the girls little league will be having their own fall ball league this year. Totally cool! They came around asking who all was interested and guess they got quite a few kids saying they were.

7. Ya'll know I love my kids, but considering Caleb's almost week out of school being sick, and the last week and half of spring break...I am desperately ready for the kids to go back to school. I have not had a moment of peace to myself in almost three weeks. Tuesday can not get here soon enough.

8. When they are in school, my house is quiet. I haven't heard quiet since they got out.

9. I've been reading the Twilight series (actually finished it this morning.) Dakota wanted the books and I read ahead. Was surprised to find I actually liked them.

10. Hermi, give your nephew another year or two (if I remember right, he's a little younger than Caleb.) Especially wait til his sisters are a little older and start bringing friends home. Those little friends always crush on the big brothers. Hehe, my 12 year old nephew called the other day to ask Caleb if he could come over, then asked if Kota's friends were here! He has no sisters and up until recently prefered the company of his boy cousins, but all of a sudden Dakota and oldest niece are his favorite two people cuz there are always other girls around.

1. It finally dawned on Darren today that there must be a girl.

2. Caleb's buddies came to get him. With them on spring break, he's been spending most his time with them.

3. How did it finally dawn on him? Caleb's buddies came over, he told them sure he was going and hold on a minute. Darren was getting ready to leave and walked back and Caleb was brushing his hair and teeth and putting on his Axe body spray. Sigh...girls knocking on the door, Caleb jealous cuz his buddy is staring at one, blushing bright red when a certain girls name is mention... and good grooming skills is what tips Darren off.

1. Uh oh. Hormones on parade at the Wargod house.

2. My sister is having some trouble navigating through my nephew's puberty, too, but for different reasons. He's got some angst going on.

3. I think I will do my nails tonight. Thanks for the encouragement, Gidget.

4. I am so happy that Spring Break starts today!

4.1 Wow, out of nowhere I just got an email from an old MySpace dude who really liked me a couple of years ago, but who I dumped for his shockingly conservative views. He kept telling me that we could be like Mary Matalin and James Carver, but his views were way too offensive (he was racist, homophobic and xenophobic!) for me to get past. Ugh. Why is it that the ones you want to resurface never do??

1. Sis and bil are out of town for a couple days, so my nieces are staying with us. I think the baby's ticked they left her, she spent the first 20 minutes here ignoring me and then came in and laid on the couch and went to sleep.

2. Dakota got an honor roll award and perfect citizenship award today. Caleb's award ceremony is Friday.

3. I already got the enrollment packet of info for Caleb to start high school next fall. We have to go over at the end of the month to sign him up at the school. Not looking forward to that.

4. Darren may or may not have to go out of town this weekend for a couple weeks for work. Also not looking forward to that, we don't spend a whole lot of time apart. The kids aren't too happy about it either. But, it really is a good thing, he got a new job in the company and has to go for training.

5. And Hermi, hormones are bouncing off the walls here! Not only Caleb and these girls, but goodness, Dakota, oy. Darren and Kota came home from practice yesterday and the only thing he said when I asked how it went was, "It's a good thing the coaches daughter is helping out, she's the only one who can keep up with Kota's mood swings out there!" Totally cracked me up the way he said it cuz it was quite clear, he just doesn't get it.

1. I have not been here in along time.
2. How is everyone?
3. My dgs - 10 years old - was watching Family Feud last night.
4. Someone's answer was condoms.
5. He asked what are condoms. I told him that was a Dad's question. Dad gave him an answer.
6. Grandson - Noah -said that sounds gross to me. His Mom said - Yeah - remember that in a few years.

1. Funny, Knightpatti! Congrats on the kids' awards, Wargod.

2. Yesterday at my sister's, I went upstairs to say goodbye to my youngest newphew and niece, who were in the bathtub.

3. Youngest nephew let it be known that he is very proud of his penis.

4. I said to my sister, "Boy, it starts young, doesn't it? And never stops!"

5. I'm back at work today after a wonderful spring break.

6. In about 9 weeks, I'll be on a train headed west to Seattle so I can embark on an Alaskan cruise. I'm very excited!

7. Click this link from the Daily Shite - LINK. A friend posted it on my FB wall. You know you want to click it.

1. Funny Hermie, my littlest nephew is just getting to the phase where he's totally impressed with his penis. Like he's the only one in the world with one.

2. Our minor league baseball team is celebrating their 1,000th home game tomorrow night. To commerate it, they gave away all 3,000 tickets to the game for free. We'd thought about going and then decided we didn't want to go wait in line for the tickets, lol.

3. Saturday, Kota and oldest niece had a game in Palmdale. Middle niece had a game here in town at the same time. Sis took her to her game while the rest of us went to the older girls game (since the guys are helping to coach they had to be there.) Sis called to tell us some guy had come by the park and started giving out a bunch of tickets for the game, so she grabbed enough for all of us.

4. So, tomorrow after the girls practice, we're going to see the game. Probably freeze our butts off, but it'll be fun.

5. Darren and I are planning date night this week. He'll be leaving Sunday morning for two weeks (training for work) so we want some alone time before he goes. Dakota will be spending the night with my sister, Caleb's still not sure if he's going there or to his buddies house.

6. The girls team is doing fantastic. They're 6-1 right now. Saturday's game was awesome, one girl hit a homerun, a couple had huge hits (girls who usually don't,) and Kota hit it almost to the back fence. Even better, Kota (playing catcher) and our pitcher spent 90% of the game playing catch with each other. Pitcher gave up very little and Kota was catching everything. She fired off a ball to 2nd (not unusual for her, she can make those long throws) and oldest niece caught it easily (that was new) and tagged out the girl running towards second. Fun game.

7. I should get off my butt and do something, but after doing our taxes this morning I don't feel like it. Maybe I'll take an easy day.

8. Come to think of it, I think I will! I'm enjoying the quiet for a change and tomorrow I'll have littlest niece and nephew here for a few hours.

1. I take it you are not the woman in the commercial then, Serate. :P

2. I have a due date of April 26th.

3. One of the science teachers stamped my hand with our due date mechanism.

4. He's the same one who came to fix my toilet a couple of months ago.

5. I have a bottle of wine in my car for him.

6. I hope I don't get busted for having alcohol on campus!

7. Let me tell you, it's hard for a recovering alchie to pick out wine!

8. 13 years of sobriety and the sight and smell of alcohol can still make my salivary glands secrete like mad.

9. Have a fun date night, WG, and continuing good luck to the girl's team.

10. I wish I had a Coke Zero.

2. I shouldn't complain because the Easter Bunny brought me a new laptop cuz mine was totally you know what upped, but I just don't like Windows 7. Tho I haven't done research to see if I can set what's bothering me the most up like Vista or XP.

1. A new laptop is nice. I have to admit I prefer the Mac platform, but they are so expensive. My work laptop is a PC. It doesn't have Windows 7, though.

2. You know what? I feel so angry so much of the time. When did I become such an angry person?

3. It's very wearying and I wish I could just let things go.
