Urgrace | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 06:40 am     1. I got so depressed yesterday that I cleaned the whole house 2. Well almost, since there are a few dust bunnies on the tops of the cabinets in the kitchen which I will attack today 3. Maesin, that is one of the best reasons for the nightshift >been there, done that 4. Jbean, you slay me! 5. Square, we freaked when our 30 yr old daughter wanted to get a tatoo and her 'other mother' bribed her with a sapphire ring not to, then our 24 year old just went out and got one! ppbbbbttttt 6. Today begins the shopping for a new door and equipment to start tearing out the old bedroom and putting in the new. We are widening the doorway for ds's wheelchair access. |
Jbean | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 04:07 pm     why gracie? because i am a freak...lol, just kidding. 1. i have stayed late the last 2 nights at work (overtime is a great thing), and my hands are KILLING me. 2. it is my favorite tv night...AI, woo hoo. 3. nobody at work gives a rip about the nose stud. woo hoo again. 4. i think i am going out on thursday. haven't been for a few weeks, so i am excited. 5. mom's birthday is tomorrow and i still don't have her present. 6. she loves jigsaw puzzles, so i think i wil find her a cool one and buy it for her. 7. i hate puzzles, and have way too little patience to try to put them together! |
Wargod | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 04:14 pm     1. My day has been interesting...the best part was Dakota's screaming fit that lasted 45 minutes...literally the best part of the day. 2. I got up this morning and went into the bathroom to take a shower....I was brushing my teeth and had been for a couple minutes when I heard a gurgurling noise coming from the tub. 3. About that same time, I realized I was standing..barefoot, in about 3 inches of water. 4. Yep, plumbing problems are back. I called Darren home from work to take care of it, while I took my aunt to the doctor. 5. Plumber dude says that we need to replace the main sewer line....he can keep coming to rooter it out, but it'll just keep getting clogged...we've got roots. 6. It's going to cost a small fortune to replace. While we have had plumbing probs before, and just about anything else you can imagine....this is our first major home repair and all I can do is laugh and say "ouch." 7. Oh well, it could be worse. I've got to keep reminding myself of that and to keep my humor about it...plumber dude was acually impressed that while delivering bad news, we were able to accept it with good grace. |
Egbok | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 08:01 pm     1. Today was a hard day for me, but I'm trying to keep it in perspective. 2. I'm the contact for my brother who has a moderate form of cerebral palsy. 3. My brother has been cancer free for 10 years now. 4. His Oncologist called to tell me that his Tumor Markers are a bit high and he wants to repeat the blood tests. 5. I called my brother and gave him the news which he took pretty well. 6. I just called my brother again (about 3 hours later) to ask how he was doing and he was upset. I listened to him, spoke with him and cried with him. We both agreed that until we know for sure, we should keep our chins up. He seemed a lot better after we talked. 7. I hope that the test repeat comes out okay. 8. If it doesn't and the cancer has returned, I will do whatever it takes to take care of my brothers needs. |
Kstme | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 08:03 pm     1. OMG, War! 2. I do NOT want to have a day like yours! 3. BUT...I am so glad you kept your sense of humor! 4. Thekid threw one of those when she was 2, I picked her up by her pants and put her in her room. 5. Haven't seen her since! 6. I sometimes fib! 7. We took the pups for a walk today. 8. Ollie is STILL a MONSTER! <edit for 9> 9. ((((((((Egbok))))) |

Resortgirl | Tuesday, March 25, 2003 - 10:47 pm     1. I wrote an impact statement today regarding the death of my best friend. 2. I posted my views on the war on this board. 3. I scared the shit out of myself on both #1 & #2 4. I will be a better person tommorrow 5. I've thought alot about what it means to be a better person and am hoping by the time I get to #9 know 6. I ate pizza for supper again... and hope by #9 I'm eating something much better 7. I planted morning glories today and am hoping that by #9 they are blooming 8. I'm losing hope that by #9 things are going to be looking up. 9. Things are most definitely NOT looking up... but I still have hope. 10. Ok, I give up |
Schoolmarm | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 04:05 am     1. It's a great day (a little rainy, but we need it). My bulbs are coming up, the crocuses are blooming, and I'm giving a recital tonight! My schedule is better right now and I will be less rushed! WHEW! Hope everyone has a great day! |
Cyn | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 04:06 am     (((Egbok & Family))) 1. I find everyone here who frequents this little cyber pub of a place called TVCH land - even those of us who use a different language style - to be the best men and women of the world. 2. Wishing everyone a day of ease and love for life here on Earth no matter what word you use for your prayer or contemplation. |

Squaredsc | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 06:13 am     1. ((((Egbok & Brother)))) 2. ((((Resortgirl)))) 3. ((((War)))) im sorry bout your plumbing problems. |
Goddessatlaw | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 06:38 am     1. I'm worrying for Egbok and her brother; 2. Sibling relationships cannot be replaced, and I hope that Egbok and her brother continue theirs for a long, long time; 3. RG, much love to you and I know you did a great job for your friends on the impact statement; 4. Off to the hospital this afternoon with MM, that friggin pneumonia is back even though he took all his scrips. But I'll take it over what Egbok and her brother are dealing with - hoping for the best possible news for you, Egbok. |
Wargod | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 08:53 am     1. {{{{{Eggie & Brother.}}}}} 2. Our plumber family & friends have consulted and this weekend they are going to bring a 250 foot, double bladed snake out and run it through my main sewer line. If they pull out clay, we will have to replace the pipe. If they pull out roots, they're going to do the best they can to pull them all out, but even then we have been told that it's only a temporary fix and we will have to replace the pipe anyways, unless we want to do this again and again. 3. This solution gives us a bit more time to get the money, and figure out things like...what to do with the kids when this is going on and how far we want them to run the pipe (to the curb, or into the street..the best option,it would seem.) 4. I'm thinking this summer is going to be a little hectic on the home improvements, but once they're done, it will be great, LOL. 5. So far today, I have re-cleaned my hall carpet and have decided since I have the machine out to do the rest of the house. My bedroom is done and right now, I'm taking a break before tackling the rest of the carpets due to the fact that I'm burning up!!!!

Egbok | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 10:22 am     (Thank you for your kind words, it means a lot to me. I'll keep you posted of the outcome.) |
Mygetaway | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 01:03 pm     1. I'm sorry that some of you are having hard times right now.. 2. I wish I had a magic wand that could make everyone feel better, including myself. 3. I'm having one of those days where I wish I could just slip away to some exotic island and never look back. 4. Only with my luck when I got there we'd have an unexpected hurricane.. LOL 5. Oh, well. I watched Maid in Manhatten this morning. It wasn't bad. 6. I'm looking forward to watching Ghost ship on Friday. We got the DVD freedom pass from Blockbuster last year, and it really has been worth it. No more late fees, and we always rent at least 2 or more per week, so it pays for itself. |
Maesin | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 03:33 pm     1. Happy thoughts for everyone who needs them. 2. War, will you do my house next? 3. I got my hair cut(trimmed) today. 4. I didn't pass out with the first cut (I am kind of scared of hair people!) 5. I am officially on my weekend! 6. Tomorrow I am taking my Dad to a Dodgers/Rockies exhibition game and I am already feeling like a 5 year old that can't wait to go. 7. I am not even a Dodgers or Rockies fan, but it's the closest thing to pro ball we get here so I will take it. (We have a great AAA team tho!) |
Kstme | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 06:00 pm     1. I have a "free" evening tomorrow night. 2. Thekid is taking her dad to the Dodgers/Rockies game! 3. I want to know how to fix this thread so it isn't so wide. 4. Spy can fix it! 5. Spy can fix anything! 6. War, you're going to have email. 7. I keep forgetting to add it back to my profile. 8. I got my hair cut today too...Maesin took me! |
Kstme | Wednesday, March 26, 2003 - 07:13 pm     Whoohoo...thread is all fixed!!! THANK YOU!!!! |
Sukii1 | Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 04:00 am     1. I'm officially "pre student teaching" now (that's teaching the 2nd grade class I've been assigned to with a lot of supervision from their regular teacher). I'm also discovering I'm officially terrified. The kids are wonderful, though 90% of them require fairly strict classroom management tactics because of behaviors. They don't know me, they're getting spring fever, and I envision the class dissolving into mass chaos when I'm giving a lesson. Logically, I know I'll do fine, but there's a little voice in my head that says "they're going to eat you alive bwahahaha!!!"..ugh..I'm spazzing out. 2. Number 1 sure was long 3. ((Egbok)) 4. War, we had to have a septic system put in a few years ago, with them tearing up our lawn installing new pipe and more footage. It sucked, took almost all of our tax return money that year. I feel your pain!! 5. I'm glad Maesin didn't pass out with the haircut...hard telling what the stylist could have done if you were out! 6. Survivor was great last night, and I'm soooo rooting for Christie to pull this off and win it all! 7. I'm going out to the elementary today (twice a week) and even though I'm not giving any lessons today, I still hate the feeling I'm intruding on her class. I think I'll feel better when I actually have my own students. Or maybe I'll just pass out from fright. 8. I'm not usually a whiner, this is so out of character for me. Obviously I need some Valium. 9. Happy Thursday everyone! :P |
Schoolmarm | Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 04:53 am     1. Sukii....it will get better (trust me, I train teachers!! LOL) 2. Thanks to Wargod for emailing me spoilers about Survivor. 3. I got home from my church job at 9:30. 4. My DAD called me at 10pm...I thought someone (like my Mom) died. He NEVER calls! 5. He was just checking to see if "I" had died! LOL! 6. I had to admit that I hadn't gone to the doctor yet. Maybe I can go on Friday. 7. My recital last night went very well! I had a real clinker of a wrong note during the service, though! 8. I ate the most incredible broccoli cheese soup last night. 9. My choir did a really good job last night. 10. I admitted to them that I'm a reality TV junkie, and found out that some of them were hurrying home to watch "The Bachelor." |
Mak1 | Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 05:44 am     (Marm - please don't put it off.) 1. I'm glad to have a warm, fun and friendly place to come to online, especially in these turbulent times. TVCHers are the best! Best wishes to everyone today. |
Wargod | Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 08:17 am     1. Sukii, in my mind teachers rank right up there with police officers, fire fighters, doctors, and soldiers...pure hero! You'll do great, you know what you're doing, you're a good person, and I have great faith in you! 2. Thank God our plumbing will be "trenchless!" (Only part I understood was they won't tear up my yard or cement driveway and will dig three holes and work through those.) I don't want to think what it would cost if I had to redo my driveway, lol. (Marm, are you going to make us come over there and take you to the doctor??? Please go!) |
Schoolmarm | Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 12:25 pm     1. I am going to the doctor at 9:30 tomorrow morning. They are squeezing me in. I don't know what I will find out...no blood work! ?! SHEESH, that means that I will have to go back again to get blood work. CRIPES this is as bad as going to the dentist...they make you have an appointment to "diagnose" that you need your teeth cleaned, then make you come back again to actually clean your teeth. "I" know that I need my cholesteral and blood sugar checked, but now I'll have to see the Dr. tomorrow and then go back to check it next week. Did I tell y'all that I don't have time to go to the Doctor twice??? (I think I'm under a "little" stress right now!) 2. I will be finished at 5:00 tonight! YIPPEE! 3. My piano students just arrived....gotta run! |
Wargod | Thursday, March 27, 2003 - 12:38 pm     1. Yippee....glad to hear you are going Marm! 2. I have a pre-k physical for Dakota at 2:15 this afternoon...she is not aware of the fact that she will have to have her shots...I just can't bring myself to tell her. 3. With Darren and Caleb both needing glasses, I'm a bit worried about her eyes. Caleb is on his third pair of glasses in under two years....can you imagine how many times I'd have to replace glasses for Kota????? 4. I still have two rooms to clean the carpets in, and one of the hoses broke on my cleaner...I've decided not to replace it til tomorrow....have a legitimate excuse for a break, LOL. |
