I think it's hysterical that Spygirl measured her lawn.

for the guys! Forgive my poor memory. It sucks to get old.

Spy, you're cracking me up! And send me a pic of your new hairdo when you get one made, ok? I think your hair was beautiful before the new 'do!

1. We started out the week with Kota sick. Then Caleb got sick. Now Kota's sick again...sigh.

2. Not only did she miss Tuesday at school, and she will most likely miss tomorrow, she was late today.

3. I've been griping about the mud puddle in front of the bus stop for a while now. All this nice hard, dry dirt, and one mud puddle, and every stinking morning the bus driver stops right in front of the puddle. I have to pick her up and toss her on the bus. We've had at least three days where she ends up falling in the gutter or dirt. Manages to stay mostly clean too.

4. So guess what she did this morning? Three minutes before the bus came, she tumbled right into the mud puddle. I just took her by the hand and walked her back home where she had to have a quick shower and change of clothes...sigh.

5. While in Kota's class today, I heard the most ridiculous thing. The kids play a game using dice where they have to count and then find the right box for the number on a graph and color it. Only now, they're not called dice but random number generators because dice is un-pc! Me and the teacher were cracking up all afternoon over that.

6. My sisters due date was once again changed. Now she's due end of October and she's freaking out because she's not ready. Doesn't even have a crib yet, has very few clothes, no bottles, and is positive her baby will be naked and hungry. Won't really happen, but she's always been a bit funny.

7. With both kids sick this week, I haven't done much housework. I think this weekend, I'll go nuts and scrub everything in sight!

1. i haven't posted in here for over a month. blame it on the live feed posters...i got sucked in and couldn't leave. lol. i am back now!

2. i would LOVE to skydive, but it is money that holds me back. :( someday......

3. i am loving the new survivor! rupert rocks!

4. last friday i went to see tammy cochran (country artist) in concert at my local bar hangout. there was hardly anyone there, which was kind of sad. she was REALLY GOOD.

5. i found out a few weeks ago, that my high school class is actually going to have a class reunion right after christmas.

6. i am glad, i was disappointed when i thought we weren't having one. i have so much more self-confidence now than i did then, so i am looking forward to it.

7. i decided this year, for christmas cards i am going to do photo greetings of me and my kitty...since she is my kid. people who know me will appreciate the humor. lol

8. i wish i could win the lottery. LOL

1. I am a relatively new poster but long-time lurker! I've decided to come out of my shell even though I'm a little shy about doing so.

2 I am loving Survivor too! My son's fav is also Rupert.

3. My all-time fav, though, is TAR.

4. I wish I could win the lottery too!

Ok, I'll do nine.

1. Today was a really sucky day, but I'm trying to make the best of it.

2. Started off with my watchband breaking.

3. Got it fixed after lunch.

4. Next my laptop's moniter flashed stripes and then went plasmically black with grayish edges. My whole life is in this laptop!

5. Spent 2 hours with Apple Care (three phone calls) and now I have a very pink screen that, for the moment has stopped flashing.

6. The date on the computer now says December 31, 1969.

7. I fell down a short flight of steps from the organ loft to the altar area of the church where I was teaching an organ major. Whapped a door open on the way down. She just kept playing!

8. I'm fine besides a sore ankle. Had a Dr. Checkup that afternoon, and I'm fine (remember the heart problems last spring due to extreme stress? well I'm fine!!)

9. Happy hour was happy, and I got my hair cut and ran a bunch of errands. I'm hoping for a relaxing evening with no computer problems. I'm going to write grants this weekend, and I'm going to need a monitor that works!

<Marm invites y'all over for the Autumn Leaf Festival! The "fair food" stands are already up!>

1. I haven't posted here in awhile and I blame Jbean...she inspires me and I have missed my inspiration.

2. I am also sucking up to Jbean in case she does win the lottery she will become my new best friend.

3. I plan on seeing Second Hand Lions this weekend.

4. I hear it comes highly recommended.

5. I was off work today and took a 4 hour nap.

6. There are so many things that needs to be done around my house. I often wonder if Wargod would want to come for a little visit and straighten this place up.

7. I am glad BB is over. I didn't enjoy it much this year at all.

8. I knew I was gonna like Suvivor with the Pirate theme.

9. I just off the phone with my Mom. The conversations with her are very depressing. I was in a happy place...now I'm feeling down. :(

Welcome Pashine! I like your screen name!!

(I'll start with 1, because two 9's were posted...and they were good 9's too!!)

1. I'm glad it's Friday and I love Survivor and I am so happy to see jbean posting in here again and i hope she wins the lottery...and I'm sorry that Kady's convo with mom made her feel down...and I know this is a long run-on sentence but I'm a well-known rambler!

1. Today I plan on doing some big time studying and working on projects for my night class.

2. I'm so pleased with my life right now. I encourage any and all to always keep learning!

3. My workouts at Curves are really going good. I feel myself getting stronger! I've been doing Curves for 7 weeks now.

1. I am enjoying this cool fall weather.

2. Last night, Unit and I bought our Halloween candy.

3. It is overflowing a 19 gallon tub.

4. We will take care of the overflowage.

4½. Halloween is our favorite holiday.

1. I love the weather too, and it's supposed to be even cooler this week.

2. Although my bday is 10-31, we don't participate in or acknowlege Halloween.

3. I do buy copious amounts of candy, however. I'm willing to admit that may be hypocritical, but how can you avoid those huge bags?

4. I hung miniblinds and a valance this morning and they were actually level.

5. The kids are watching Disney's Peter Pan and it's funny how horribly politically incorrect it is.

1. Just finished printing out my 25th Class Reunion invitations and response cards.

2. Had a very hectic week: a board meeting that I conduct each month, an all day meeting with an advertising agency, a two day travel and tourism research conference and had to semi-finalize my budget for 2004 for a meeting Friday morning. Whew!

3. Due to all of the above, I didn't cook at all this week. There was no time and I was pooped when I got home!

4. I don't buy Halloween candy because I live in the downtown area and we don't get trick or treaters. Besides, my "front" door is actually in the back of my building on the second level so it's probably too hard for strangers to figure that out!

5. My dog has been sitting in the big picture windows downstairs barking at leaves blowing down the street. Arrrgh! He thinks he has to protect the building against any movement he sees.

6. I had two of the tiniest hummingbirds visit with me during morning coffee on my porch today!

1. I haven't posted in here in months.

2. I'm glad BB4 is over. When does BB5 start?

3. About a year ago I posted in here that because of the guy who was building four houses in the lot behind my house I had mice. It sucked.

4. Because of the guy who built four houses in the lot behind my house I know have four houses behind mine filled with Curry College students. It sucks worse than the mice. (2am here and they are still going strong.)

5. I am proud to say that I am a member of the Spoiled Snacks Foods team at Bob2112's Deadpool.

6. We are in dead last place. We suck. LOL

7. Now that BB is over I hope to be around this part of the board more. I love this thread. It definitely does not suck.

1. Lobster, I also live next door and across the street from college students. Call the cops...don't you have a noise ordinance? Party night here is Thursday for some strange reason....Saturday is often quiet because they all go home on the weekend. This week will be different because it is our Autumn Leaf Festival and Homecoming.

2. My computer amazingly has a working monitor! I reset the PRAM and something else and used it in shades of pink and red for several hours, and all of a sudden it zapped into "regular" color.

3. I had a bucket of Quaker Steak and Lube wings yesterday! They are my favorite, and they are about 50 miles away from here. They have a food cart set up for our festival! I'll be back again several times this week.

4. We have had pea-soup thick fog the last several days. It burns off later in the day!

5. I have friends from Norway coming on Wednesday! WHOO HOO! (And I have them bringing earplugs....see Number 1~)

6. I am going to Pittsburgh to see an organ recital this evening.

7. I need to grade papers between now and then.

8. I also need to pay bills....blech!

Ok, here's my list for the week:

10) It has cooled off big time here in NC -- like it, but not in the mornings (BRRRRRR!)
9) DH and I played Trading Spaces last night and reconfigured the LR. It looks great and is a nice change. Best yet, didn't cost a dime!
8) Today is the Steelers game. Being a Pittsburgher (who doesn't know nor condone Ali) I love my football!
7) Since we've only lived in NC a little over a year, I know mostly people from work. But did meet a new friend Fri. night where we proceeded to drink copious amounts of wine from 6 - 2:00 am. She took in a stray dog (Husky/Border Collie mix) that was wandering our neighborhood.
6) I love dogs, have a border collie and Jack Russell.
5) My son got his first report card with no D's or F's. He even got a C in latin! He's a wonderful kid!
4) DH slept on the couch last night because he ate Chinese and was leaving little butt burps that smelled awful. Thanks DH!
3) My sons school picture makes him look like Nick Lachey. Don't know where he got the good looks from.
2) Survivor is awesome and I am on Ruperts Rotten Eggs. We suck too!
1) And the best news .... NO WORK TODAY! Yeah!

1) Hurricane Juan's coming here and they have high wind, water, and rain warnings. LOL
I'm just hoping it'll be bad enough to cancel school. (Not likely)

lovemycrt, rofl about not knowing or condoning ali...too funny, that makes me like you even more.

1. i have to sleep with earplugs in every night becasue i am such a light sleeper that even the heat or air conditioning (respectively for the part of the year we are in) will wake me up.

2. last night i went out with a friend to celebrate her birthday. i was quite well behaved, and only had a total of about 4 drinks in 6 and a half hours, and a kamakazi shot (YUCK).

3. the reason for being well-behaved was because i wasn't feeling so hot. i had a sore throat and thought that i was catching a cold. today i am ok though, and feel fine, so i guess it was a false alarm.

4. i never really partied in college, mainly because i went to a christian school and you could be kicked out if it was found out that you ever drank. despite that fact, you could always find many student at the one bar in the town. ha ha....not that i would know that....

5. i went with my sister to go get her (another) tattoo yesterday. the guy was too busy though, and we ended up leaving. the girl is getting a bit carried away with the tattoos, imo. soon her whole torso area will be covered at the rate she is going.

6. i like small, cute tattoos that don't cover HUGE amounts of the body.

7. i went to marshalls yesterday and bought 2 new bras for $4 each....i needed them badly.

8. i also went to gordman's and found a shirt that i really like that i can wear to several upcoming events, but i didn't buy it, because i am such a bargain shopper that it seemed too expesive (only $15.99), but i think i will go back and get it today.

9. next month, my work is having their 20th yr anniversary bash and have hired the little river band, along with a local band called the 4 jax (jake simpson who won star search - the 1st one last season, is the lead singer), and another local band called m-dock. it is gonna be a BLAST!

ps. hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend!

1. Marm, I think they have til 2 am. They broke up shortly after I posted.

2. Neko, if Juan stays organized, I think they will cancel school. Most parents seem to frown upon their kids being blown around by 100 mph winds.
