Lostintheglades | Tuesday, November 04, 2003 - 10:48 am     1. This is day 2 of the new non smoking me and I'm ready to hit something, can't think so I'm totally wasting time at work. 2. Daughter #2 has received a letter from the University of South Florida but she's got her heart set on Florida State so to her that's no big deal. I may just slap her for not telling us and not showing as much happiness as she should for what she has in hand. It's hard getting in to any college these days. 3. Hubby is off today and thinks he gets to lay up on the couch all day. I took the garbage out and sliced my knee open on broken glass from a mustard jar he dropped over the weekend. Gonna slap him around some too maybe. 4. I forgot, this isn't the rant thread is it? Oh well. 5. Feels bad for Denecee and Spy...funny how caffeine will cause them and cure them...go figure. |
Marysafan | Tuesday, November 04, 2003 - 11:05 am     1. I haven't posted in this thread in a long, long time. 2. I used to be a two cups of coffee everyday person until I quit about three years ago...I had a headache that lasted for three days, but now I am coffee free. 3. It is another gloomy day in the heartland, but we need the rain so I am not complaining. 4. I am going to make a big ol pot of cabbage soup. Not going on the cabbage soup diet...just like the soup! 5. So sorry to hear about all that is troubling you fine folks and am so glad that we have a place to come for comfort and understanding. 6. I need to pick myself off, dust myself off and get moving again. Time to set some new goals and get on with my life. |
Wargod | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 12:27 am     1. Dakota is feeling better, though still has a cough. Of course, since she is feeling better, Caleb went to bed this evening complaining of a sore throat. 2. After waiting months to get his eye dr. appt. it was cancelled as we stood in the office because they couldn't read their own referral. Made another appt. and was happy with it, until they called this afternoon to reschedule. Sooner or later I will get this kid in to see the eye dr. This is the biggest pain in the neck! 3. Kota got her report card yesterday. As with Caleb there were no big suprises and she's doing well. 4. Sis is still pregnant...and very grumpy about it, lol. She had an appt today and was very upset by the dr. spending just long enough with her to measure her tummy and check the baby's heartbeat. 5. She told me today my neice has a new toy/friend. Our friend who cuts the girls hair, has ordered beauty school heads for them. Her hope is the girls will be so busy playing with their heads, they won't want to cut each others hair. For some reason, the thought of this head, which is named Ericka, is freaking me out. Even worse is the fact that Dakota will be getting one of her own! 6. Can you imagine getting up in the middle of the night and seeing this head laying in the middle of the bed or on the floor??? Between that and MOW making flying monkey faces at me, I'm going to be completely nuts. 7. Since MOW has finished his classes for work, my goal this coming year is to be enrolled in at least one, hopefully two, classes at the college. I'm not bored staying at home, but, I miss school, and I miss doing something for me. |
Ohbrother | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 01:33 am     1. Having way too much fun posting all by myself. 2. Where is everybody at? (Party Poopers) 3. OK Its 1:30am, I should be in bed. 4. I must set alarm clock for 6:00am. 5. Push snooze alarm every 10 minutes. 6. Go back to bed after kids go to school. 7. Remind self to never ever drink coffee again after 10:00pm. 8. Dragging self off computer and to bed. 9. Good night all. 10. Sweet dreams. |
Reader234 | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 04:28 am     1. 6:16 am here 2. Lori won hoh again 3.wonder if ohbrother is awake? 4. THANKS Meridian, that's what I was trying to say!! and the show did a good job of saying she was a disciple of Christ, and not paint her as a nomadic female follower (*wink *wink) I think that's why it was sad, and wonderful at the same time. The interviewed the author of The Davincci code, and some Catholic Priesets, some women writers who read the "scriptures that were destroyed on the authority of the catholic church eons ago, but one monk saved one copy, in greek... Mary Magdelene has a gospel. " It was a show that made you think. 5. Parent- TEacher-student- counselor conference after school today. 6. will dh show up? 7. Will ds be there, mentally, as well as physically? 8. Yeah Wargod, and LOL 9.Its hard having points all about "ME" 10 Time to wake up dd, get to Curves, dye my hair, and do laundry. |
Meridian | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 05:14 am     1. Reader: Here's a link to the book-- http://www.innertraditions.com/titles/gomama.html 2. Good luck with your conference today. 3. Lost: congratulations to your daughter on her USF acceptance. Has she decided a course of study? |
Lostintheglades | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 06:22 am     1. Thanks Meridian. Yes...I'll be broke for a long time. She want to be an Orthopedic Surgeon, specializing in Sports Injuries...I'm really proud of her and figure I'll be able to get free hips when the time comes. 2. Reader...I don't think they should ever have evicted you. Darn those scheming HG's anyway. What were they thinking? 3. It's cloudy here...looks like we'll be getting some rain. 4. I don't want to work. Would rather get some paint and paint my family room. 5. Really need to start cleaning out the clutter but I can only do it when DH not around. He'll just go through the trash and pull everything back out. Did I mention that I really hate clutter? 6. Gotta go buy a lottery ticket today. Would love to win just enough to pay off some debts, fix the roof, extend my porch and get a larger shed for DH's clutter. 7. Beside the clutter I have too much furniture in this house. Anyone need an entertainment center and some really big speakers? |
Not1worry | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 08:13 am     1. I thought my cold was getting better, but I woke up at 4 a.m. so stuffed I couldn't breathe. I'm tired of this. 2. Lost's post about smacking people made me laugh. And free hips, LOL. 3. I found out how much we will be authorized for housing allowance when we move to Eglin AFB, FL this April. 4. $801 and that has to cover utilities too. 5. From what I've seen in the online want ads, there are no decent rentals for less than $1000. I really would rather not live in a trailer. I hate that the Army doesn't give us enough money to live in a decent house. 6. We have been in for 17 years now and I'd like to have a simple 3 bdrm. house with a yard and a garage. I don't need a beachfront mansion. 7. However, I am not going to worry and complain about it (anymore). I am going to be happy about moving there and trust we will find the right house. 8. Hmmm...can't think of #8. Have a great day, everyone! |
Reader234 | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 09:52 am     1. Meridan, that's the book they talked about on the show! Thanks for the link! 2.Lost, you must play in the next Adven game! 3.did ohbrother ever wake up? 4.I have more clutter than I have room to store it in, and I've given up for today! 5. Not1worry. Hooray on Fl, and I keep looking at your user name and your post... I hope you can find the perfect rental. I understand about trailers. I dont mind your complaints, esp when I can agree with them!! 6. I have a new hair color. 7. I had the lady take my measurement at curves 8 after 2 weeks the tape measure shows I lost 5 in off my waist and abs!! That is 5 for each! The lady fell over, and said I must've been wearing really lose clothing, I was wearing the same clothes, but I *know* they kept a very lose measuring tape!! So the realistic is probably around 3in!! 9 I hope I dont get discouraged and eat, or reward myself and eat!! 10 hmmmmm Continue having a great day!! |
Lostintheglades | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 09:53 am     1. I am so sorry Not1 has to move. I hate moving although it is a good time to clean out closets. Maybe I should just move instead of building a bigger shed |
Sia | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 12:22 pm     1. After eight years without cable, I finally ordered satellite as my DH's Christmas gift. 2. I'm still "crisis-cleaning" in anticipation of the arrival of the cable guy; he called this morning and postponed his visit until tomorrow. My kids were expecting cartoons TODAY!! |
Sia | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 12:29 pm     Ohbrother, your last post could be my list each and every single night!! I stay up too late, get up early to get the kids on the bus, then hit the sheets again! Bad habit of drinking coffee in the late evening matches me, too! |
Tigerfan | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 02:59 pm     1. After 5 yr.'s of lurking I finally decided to get in on the fun. 2. I am a reality/entertainment world junky 3. I dont want to exercise/workout today. |
Gidget | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 03:11 pm     Hiya Tigerfan! Boy are you in the right place. 1. I had a day off compliments of jury duty ending finally. 2. It's pouring outside. I have a load in the washer. I have dinner ready. Dishes done. Cats fed. Groceries to put away. Life is good. 3. I never want to workout. That needs to change. 4. So what color did you go with Reader? |
Yankee_In_Ca | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 03:26 pm     1. My first fact of the day is -- I am happy to welcome Tigerfan to "posting-dom!" Welcome! 2. I always feel better once I've worked out, and I love going to the gym for classes (mostly aerobic, step, but also spinning, weight lifting and some yoga). However, in the hour or two before I need to leave, I always want to chicken out because I'd rather...stay at home...walk the dog...sleep...call someone... anything other than go the gym. But once I'm there I'm always glad I went. 3. I am trying to diet but finding it very hard. I've never really been on diets before and I'm finding that I do nothing but think about food all the time now, when I didn't before the diet. 4. Doing a bit of "fall cleaning" today. Making lots of trips to the garbage room in my building. 5. Coffee in the evening doesn't keep me awake, rather, the warmth makes me sleepy. Weird, I know. Maybe it's a sign that I'm TOO used to coffee! |
Sage | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 04:26 pm     1. I had a massage today. As soon as my therapist touched me, I started crying. He said muscles carry memories, and I all I could think about was how much I missed Brian and his touch. Sigh. 2. I haven't exercised in a couple of weeks and keep thinking I need to get back into it. Once life is a bit more settled for me, I shall resume my regular routine. 3. Despite the massage, my back, shoulders, and neck are aching. 4. I went to a newly opened dollar store here in town and found a book I've wanted for a long while. Its by Jewel, the singer, called "Chasing Down The Dawn". It was only a Dollar!!! I had four quarters and 8 cents on me, so I bought it just for me. 5. I will be doing my Christmas and birthday shopping at the dollar store this year. 6. I'm doing really well, emotionally. I have my bouts of tears - part of the grieving process - but overall, I have decided to speak and think positive things into my life instead of thinking and speaking doom and gloom. I'm determined to not let fear control me. |
Not1worry | Wednesday, November 05, 2003 - 08:16 pm     Lost, that is the good thing about moving every 2-3 years. You are forced to throw stuff away and semi-organize. My house would be like a Goodwill dumpster if I didn't move all the time. I am glad we are moving, it's the house hunting I hate! 1. ROFL on Sia's kids expecting cartoons. 2. I was looking longingly at the digital cable package flyer that came in the mail today. 3. I was thinking maybe I could do it just for the next 5 months till we move. It's only $14 extra a month. 4. But that's $14 a month I could be spending on other stuff. 5. Would you believe I actually wanted to justify it by saying that it has the Discovery Kids channel and that it would enhance our science curriculum? 6. Sage, it sounds to me like you are doing pretty well considering the major stuff you are going through. I know this is the beginning of wonderful things for you, they just may be a bit disguised. 7. Oh, and YAY!!!! for Reader on losing all those inches. Way to go! Buy yourself a new workout outfit or something, that could be your reward. And I want to know what color your hair is too. |
Lostintheglades | Thursday, November 06, 2003 - 06:33 am     1. Reader - Adven's game has been cracking me up 2. Not1...ok...now I envy you. Next time I clean I'm gonna have to get one of those dumpster...shhh don't tell DH. 3. Sage - Hang in there. When the clouds lift you'll be amazed at where you've been. 4. Welcome Tiger!!! |
Tigerfan | Thursday, November 06, 2003 - 07:09 am     1. Gidget,Yankee,and Lost...Thanks for the welcome!! That's why I finally joined TVCH,this site has a very warm family feel about it... 2.Still dont want to exercise but I love the results... 3.Sage,I'm thinking happy thoughts for you.. 4. I dont want to do any work today |
Lostintheglades | Thursday, November 06, 2003 - 07:36 am     1. I don't want to work today either Tigerfan..Let's go somewhere. 2. DD #2 has been accepted to FSU also. 3. We're taking a tour of USF tomorrow and will be going to Tallahassee on the 25th to tour FSU so she can make an educated decision about where she wants to go. 4. Saving my pennies as next year I may need them. |
Spygirl | Thursday, November 06, 2003 - 07:53 am     Alright you nutty folks. What number are we really on here? LOL 1. I'm going to go with 8 since that was the last one done in order 2. Today is class day and it will be a doozy. 3. I have a group of students very upset that I required them to watch "Boys Don't Cry". 4. I'd like to tell them to grown up and become graduate students rather than whiny babies. 5. Instead I'll spend an hour or so with them processing through the difficult issues presented in the movie that obviously touched very sensitive issues for them. 6. #1 brought me dinner last night. We watched the Bachelor together and both want Estella to be chosen. 7. It is freezing here. Why again did I move further north when I am cold when it is 100 degrees outside? 8. I have to finish my prep for class tonight. Have a great Thursday! |
Gidget | Thursday, November 06, 2003 - 07:57 am     1. I want to go with lostintheglades and tigerfan. 2. I have done virtually nothing since I got to work. I am on strike. My counter part who handles the eastern part of the country is leaving Friday for a new job. They are not even searching for a replacement yet because we did not make our numbers this year. I am not going to do the work of two people. Been there done that got the high blood pressure for my trouble. 3. After I post I have to decide what I am going to order at our going away luncheon. We are going to the Cheesecake Factory, my first time. And you thought I was kidding about being on strike. 4. I'm happy that it is finally Survivor Thursday. I hate cliffhangers. I want Survivor on 2 days a week. Show us more about what goes on day to day then just the challenges. 5. Wow I ran out of things to say. That doesn't happen often! |
Tigerfan | Thursday, November 06, 2003 - 08:13 am     1. Laughing at myself for being "nutty" and not knowing there was a pattern here..I'm new. 2.Feeling honered to be considered nutty by Spygirl. 3. Pondering running off w/Lostintheglades. 4. Still looking at my desk wondering where to start. 5. Debating whether or not to have tooth pulled or endure root canal..ick 6. Wondering if Joe Schmoe will be on dvd 7. Still reeling from 8 simple rules episode. 8. Taking bet's on how long my teen daughter will be on phone tonight. 9. Before her brother starts to whine about not being able to go online cause she's on the phone. |
Spygirl | Thursday, November 06, 2003 - 08:15 am     Being nutty is an honor around these parts...you are always in good company. Welcome aboard!  |
Gidget | Thursday, November 06, 2003 - 08:26 am     something seems to be wrong with my server. I swear there were only 4 when I started typing |
