1. Well my son became a licensed driver today.
2. Woo-Hoo (Easier on us)
3. And Boo-Hoo.. (Now I'm really scared) LOL
4. I'm glad he made it, I was afraid he wouldn't pass yet. He got an 86 on the drive test.
5. $600. bucks for insurance just for him.. yeeowsa! I'm glad he's working.
6. DS wants to drive to school tomorrow. I remember that feeling, but as the parent I'm feeling very apprehensive. He's already getting tired of all "the rules".. :) He keeps saying, "Mom, I know, I know"
7. DH is learning to sell Kirby vacuums as that is the only prospect that has come up so far job wise. They say they will guarantee $1600. a month, but I'm worried about the gas bill. He doesn't have to cold call, he goes out to appointments already set up. We'll see. We're still waiting to see about Lowe's and Home Depot, etc.
8. I wish I could slide through that alternate door right now, and I'd be on the beach in Mexico just soaking up the sun. I'd give just about anything to be able to get up and walk right now.

More money!! Now that's a GOOD thing isn't it? You certainly can buy a nice looking pair of a** kickers now.

Seriously now, I just butted in to tell Jbean to stay tough and stay focus and that everything happens for a reason and things are always and forever changing!! Whew...I'm a rambler!! LOL

1. I hate those days when you wake up late, come flying out of bed like you're on fire because you think your kids will be late for school..only to find out "but mommy, I don't HAVE school today.."..check the calendar...sure enough, I've broken the idiot record for running through the house like a madwoman for nothing.

2. Happy Friday everyone!

1. LOL Sukii, I think all parents have done that at least once. Whats worse is not realizing its a minimum day and being gone when they get home...thank god for smart kids and good neighbors.

2. In two hours, I have to be at Caleb's school for an awards ceremony. He doesn't know he's getting one, I don't know what its for, so we'll both be suprised. However, I forgot to charge the battery in my camcorder last night, so won't be taping today.

3. Tomorrow, on the other hand, is opening day for little league, and I will be taping whatever games dad misses due to working. We are hoping that that won't be too many.


Pixie, WELCOME TO TVCH Glad to have you delurk and join us.

1. Just thought that I should say here that I have been reading many of you folks' ideas for three years now, and I feel familiar with you. A friend sent me a ream box of paper filled with the print outs of the best threads and every episode of BB1 on video. And TVCH is a wonderful community.

2. I refer to BB1 by the name of William Blake's book of poetry called; "Song's of Innocence." I watched every show consecutively while reading these posts during BB2, but still have never finished watching the end of BB2. I did read about it from print outs from this site, though.

3. I'm loving my Tai Chi class and am finding it to immediately remove the static.

4. Hope everyone has a great weekend and Hi Pixie. And thanks to the MODs for not kickin' me out of here while I threw a temper tantrum. Love and Peace.

1. Spring break is coming up???
2. Caleb's award was for student of the month..I'm so proud of him I could burst.
3. Enjoying my kid free day. Already have Dakota's room clean, the bathroom, my room, and the hallway vacuumed.
4. Got to finish the living room, kitchen, den, and maybe Caleb's room.
5. No my house isn't a huge mess, LOL.
6. On kid free days, I vacuum, mop, wash walls and windows, dust, and do a ton of laundry. I'm hoping to get all this done, so that this weekend, we can focus on getting our front and backyards ready for spring!

1. The Styx/Reo concert ROCKED!!!!!!!!! OMG, I had such an awesome time! The group of us that went have finally conceded we are part of the "old" rockers group. 98% of the people who attended the concert had to be in their 30's-40's and up, not a lot of teenyboppers there last night :) It was a fantabulous concert!!!

2. On the other hand, my throat is sore from screaming my head off and my head is little sore from the beer I was forced to drink :P .

3. I knew a lot more Styx songs than I thought I did.

4. Congrats to Caleb for being student of the month!! War, I bet you could explode with pride!

5. I second the YAYYY for spring break coming up in a week.

6. I start pre-student teaching after spring break, and I'm so excited. I've been in college since the dawn of time, I'm so glad I'm almost finished. One more semester after this one and I can actually say I'm a TEACHER :)!

7. It's supposed to be 65 degrees here today, I can't wait to get outside and enjoy some springtime weather!

8. I'm sending positive vibes to jbean

9. Have I said yet that the Styx/REO concert was AWESOME!!!! :)

1. Darren had his first half Saturday and all day Sunday home this weekend since Christmas week.

2. Caleb and I went to opening ceremonies for little league Saturday morning. We were out there in the sun from 10 til 12:15, went to have lunch, met up with dad at 1:15 and headed back to the little league field where we had our first game.

3. Everybody won. The kids had fun, lots of people showed up to cheer them on (only game of the season they get to play on the big field, so people who don't even have kids playing stop to watch while waiting for their kids games.)

4. After the game, we went to home depot and walmart, bought a ton of flowers and gardening stuff.

5. We spent the rest of Saturday working on the front yard. Kids enjoyed the day outside.

6. We finally stopped about 7pm, ate dinner, got the kids settled in our room to watch a movie, while we watched The Ring in the living room.

7. It freaked me out so much, I couldn't finish it and went to bed early to huddle under the blankets!

8. The kids woke us up at 7am yesterday. We ran to home depot again for a hose for our pond, and came home and finished up the front yard. I cleaned and washed both cars.


9. The weather was great...mid 70's all weekend. The front yard looks awesome! And, I am so sunburned and blistered that today I will be spending the day vegging out trying to not move too much to avoid serious pain.

10. Yeah for Sukii!!!! Glad you had so much fun!

1. I just got a Bob Marley CD (Legend) and a Jimmy Buffett CD. Nope, I'm not back from Jamaica yet.

2. I have no voice today. No sniffles, no body aches and no voice. Weird stuff.

3. I'm thinking that the perfect way to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary this year would be to return to Jamaica!

(Ginger, maybe Hunter will massage your neck for you?)

1. My kitty is still laying in the same spot in my bed where I left him 5 hours ago.

3. Wish me luck cause I know you all can imagine how fun it is to take an 11 year old clothes shopping.
4. I cooked spaghetti sauce last night and all hubby has to do is cook the spaghetti when he gets home so our supper will be ready when we get home from the mall.

1. Thank goodness it's not Friday yet. I have way too much to do before then.

2. Hand reflexology works a bunch of times for neck problems. You'll be surprised. Ask for it at a spa/beauty parlor, if you don't know somewhere to go.

3. I think, Bob Marley's representin' the most wisdom in Modern English.

4. I loved it when Ali G got former U.N. Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali to say that what the world needs is for everyone to lay down their guns and listen to Bob Marley.

5. I'm having cabbage, carrots, potatoes and string beans seasoned with onions, garlic and ginger and bread.

6. It's from an Ethiopian restruant here in NYC.

and... good luck Kady - it'll be fun. This could count as #7 if War jumped up to do her "chores".

1. If I had known Kady was taking her son, I would have offered a trade, LOL.
2. I had planned on minor grocery shopping with Dakota this afternoon.
3. She asked me to take her to buy a dress...and let me tell you, when your 4 year old tomboy asks for a new dress, you drop everything to go buy it.
4. She was good while picking it out, but got fussy standing in line.
5. Of course, after 45 minutes, don't ask, in line, I was getting fussy too, LOL.
6. I'm thinking I should get off my bottom and do some house work, since I spent all weekend outside.
