They are playing so nice and quiet, I'm loving it. This is the first quiet time I've had in almost two weeks! 3. Secret, how about taking the gf shopping? Or to a movie and out to lunch? 4. I want to see Eggie's new hair cut. 5. Big hugs to Froggie! |

Froggiegirl621 | Wednesday, December 03, 2003 - 04:18 pm     Thanks War for the hugs...hugs back at ya!  |
Urgrace | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 01:22 am     1. I'm finding it easier to stay up half the night to try to catch up on the threads 2. Tess' updates are the biggest help and very enjoyable 3. I took my grandchildren to the Witte Museum 4. They played with lots of hands-on exhibits, science gadgets, touchable displays, and were in awe of the dinosaur exhibits, stuffed animals and live Texas critters 5. I liked the three story treehouse 6. My daughter told my sil what I am sending to him for Christmas, so he proceeded to tell me what he "wants" (ppfffffttttttt) 7. I am looking forward to hearing from Mak1 about her preferences for our exchange gift |
Resortgirl | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 05:31 am     1. We picked out a Christmas tree yesterday. I hope this gets me in the Christmas spirit. 2. I'm going to work today and hope to decorate the store for Christmas. We bought a small tree and some decorations 3. I'm excited to hear about the California trip. I wish I could go! 4. I have to decide between going to Chicago and going to Vegas to see a friend get married. I wish I could do both! 5. I can't think of anything I want for Christmas, so I guess that means I have everything. 6. I do know that I'm rich in friendships and that is the most important thing in life 7. I'm glad Grace gets to spend time with her grandchildren. 8. It's another cold day in Minnesota. I don't know if I can get through another 5 months of this... brrrrrrr |
Egbok | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 08:12 am     1. Okay, day 2 of the short haircut and I'm starting to like it. BTW, Egbob hasn't even notice my new haircut....yeah, tells you how much he really looks at me...LOL!! 2. Some co-workers said my new cut made me look younger but really, they're just being nice. 3. I don't look younger but I sure act younger and sometimes too silly for my own good! 4. Last night I picked up my BIG project from my night class and I got 199/200. I'll take it! 5. Tomorrow night I'll be having dinner with Weinermr, Seamonkey and Karuuna...I'm so excited! 6. I've got most of my Christmas shopping done with Egbob taking care of the big ticket items for the kidlets. 7. Egbob's been an Ebay dawg....should I be worried? 8. Egbob is a Gymnastic Judge and he has a huge event for his association this weekend, so that means I won't be seeing him until Monday...sigh! 9. That's why I love, love, love this place...you guys are my second family and someone is always nearby to chat with...woo hooo! |
Tagurit | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 09:06 am     1. I am glad that Egbok is getting used to and liking her new haircut! 2. I've done some decorating today. 3. I was so good last year though in putting stuff in the rubbermaid containers that most stuff is in the attic. 4. DH returns on Sunday and I'll make him go get them. 5. I put a Christmas CD (sorry SBG ) in the computer and nothing happened. 6. Something always breaks when DH is gone and I was trying to find out what happened. 7. Dummy me never turned on the speakers! DUH! 8. I mailed out my Christmas cards today. 9. I am going to start making cookies today or tomorrow. 10. Whew! Actually made it to 10! |
Bobbie_552001 | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 11:41 am     1. I was so excited to get #1 here...that I just had to post...nothing particular to say except that its SURVIVOR DAY.... And I have a Christmas party tonight and can't watch it...boo hoo....and yes I'm whining |
Hippyt | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 12:01 pm     1) I just got off the phone with hubby,and I'm very excited. 2) As a lot of you know,we started our own small business this past summer. While it's going well,Christmas was looking pretty lean this year,UNTIL today. He got four new jobs today. One with an old manager of ours (we used to work for the same company.) So,looks like I'm going to be able to have a decent Christmas and enjoy my trip to Chicago without worrying too much about money! p.s.yes,that was long,but hey,I'm kinda happy! |
Egbok | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 12:08 pm     Woo Hoo Hippy!! That's wonderful news!! Are you coming to Chicago in May with the TVCHers????? (I sure hope so!!!!!) |
Mocha | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 12:23 pm     Woo Hoo Hippy and Da Frog!! |
Hippyt | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 12:42 pm     what did I tell you,I hate to do this to a new person........but<kicks Mocha in the shin> running........ |
Mocha | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 12:46 pm     Taking of my shoes and runs after Hippy, legs pumping... |
Twinkie | Thursday, December 04, 2003 - 11:47 pm     1. Today was another back-breaking day of cleaning the 2 apts we are moving to. 2. Thank goodness for long heavy duty plastic gloves. I keep finding the most vile things imaginable. 3. Now I have to scrub the walls before I can even think about priming and painting. Then its on to flooring. By the time I'm done these apts are going to look stunning and I won't mind living there. But it is still TEMPORARY living quarters in my mind. |
Wargod | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 12:25 am     1. Twinks, you can get a sponge mop, and buy a couple extra sponges. Then you mop your walls. You've got the added length of the pole to get all the way to the top of the walls without climbing, and to get to the bottoms of the walls without bending down, plus it works great. 2. Only problem is that once the sponge gets dirty you have to change heads or it leaves streaks on the walls. On the plus side, it's quicker and easier than doing it with a smaller sponge or washcloth. 3. Just ran to Food 4 Less..I think I'll start doing all my grocery shopping after midnight til the strike is over at Vons. No big crowds, no screaming kids, no rude shoppers...best shopping trip I've had in 2 months! 4. Also noticed that Wal Mart is open. Forgot they are back to being open this late around the holidays. I used to love shopping there in the middle of the night. Then they messed me up when they stopped being open 24 hours a day. |
Twinkie | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 01:29 am     1. Thanks for the tip, War honey! Sounds like a plan! 2. I LOVE stores that are open 24/7. My favorite shopping is done at 2 or 3 AM. 3. Home Depot is about to become my favorite store again. I'm hoping for a sale on Killz since I'm going to need alot of it. 4. I can't believe I'm still awake. You'd think that with all the backbreaking cleaning and number of pain pills I've taken I'd be snoring right now. 5. I think I'm overly tired and will probably spend the next 24 hours or so in bed. So don't count me out! Just MIA for a little while! BTW, have I mentioned lately how much I love everyone here? Big smooches to all of you lovely, caring people!! |
Sage | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 02:21 am     1. This is my second day of taking Lexapro, and I feel relaxed, chipper, and happy. (Amazing!) 2. I went to Larry's for dinner tonight and made salad and hummed to myself while making it. (That's a sure sign the drug is working!) 3. I decided to go with Larry to Everett this weekend and we will go as long as the pass is clear. 4. Larry has enlisted my help in losing weight since he says I've been so successful in losing. He wants to lose 100 lbs. (I don't know where he's hiding that much weight!) 5. I think I'm finally getting over this crud of a viral infection or cold or whatever it is. (I hate coughing and sniffling all the time!) 6. I just ate some grahm crackers and had milk with it, and now I'm going to go to bed. |
Kaili | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 05:52 am     1. Today is interview day...wish me luck! (Yeah, I accepted the job with the emotionally disturbed kids, this interview is for the gifted and talented coordinator position). 2. I got my hair cut yesterday and bought some new shoes. 3. The shoes are the exact same as another pair I have except the new ones are black instead of brown. 4. I'm nervous. 5. I'm excited. 6. My best friend from HS- the one who's now 4 months pregnant- is coming to visit me tomorrow. I haven't seen her in about 6 months and i'm pretty excited about that. 7. I haven't watched Survivor yet so I'll have to avoid peeking in there. Well, maybe. don't really mind if I foind out ahead of time. I just know that I'll be reading everything everyone says then I'll miss my interview that's in exactly 2 hours and 7 minutes. |
Bobbie_552001 | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 07:52 am     1. YES Sage glad that you are feeling so much better. 2. Good luck Kali!! 3. I hope that everyone with the nasty virus is well and can enjoy their gathering this weekend. 4. Woke up to blizzard conditions....visability 0, and we are expected to get 3-6 inches by nightfall. 5. Welcome to winter in Ohio. 6. Tonight is #3's first basketball game on the JV team. 7. Could he possibly be as nervous as Mom is?? 8. Nope |
Luvmyjrt | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 08:00 am     1) My 15 year old DS just made All County Band for trumpet! Yea DS! 2) The trumpet cost me a fortune! 3) He is going to Atlanta today to march in their Xmas parade tomorrow. 4) NC is expecting snow too. I want him to stay safe! 5) DS had DG (darling girlfriend) over for dinner.

I L-O-V-E pickles! 8) I'm so happy for Sage that the meds are helping! 9) Good luck Kaili on your interview!!! |
Hermione69 | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 10:33 am     1- Good luck, Kaili! What is the interview for? I am so behind in everything. Are you still trying to get a teaching job? 2- I ate two burritoes for lunch. Pbbbbbbbblllltttt. 3- If any of you remember my little saga with ASL guy this summer-- well, we are not dating, but are becoming better and better friends. 4- I wish LOTR would come in Open Caption sooner. last year I had to wait until the end of March to see The Two Towers. 5- It is wet weather here, but not snowy or icy. 6- What are these charities that people are talking about in the Member Folders? I'd like to join that. 7- Ten more mornings to get up until my Christmas Break. 8- Two more ASL V classes to get through before my Christmas Break! 9- Can you tell how excited I am about Christmas Break? 10- Sometimes I think I really need to have my head examined for liking Jon as much as I do, LOL! |
Draheid | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 10:38 am     1. Hermione, what you are seeing in the folders has to do with the TVCH Holiday Exchange Names Drawn & Exchanges threads in General Discussions. |
Kaili | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 10:59 am     1. I'm back from the interview and I think it went pretty well. (This was the interview for the gifted/Talented Coordinator position, Hermione). 2. Only problem is now I have another dilemma. I think I'll get this job- i'll know for sure Monday but they will need a definite answer from me that day. It's only a .30 position which means 12 hours per week. I accepted a full time position with the ED kids at the other place. Do I take a job in a school but work so little I stay at UPS, or do I take a regular F/T job working with kids but not at a school and quit UPS? Decisions, decisions, decisions!!!! |
Urgrace | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 06:52 pm     1. My darling niece is so excited because it is her senior year and her school's football team won the state championship in Michigan 2. My youngest son's alma mater is vying for the state championship tonight in Houston 3. Kaili, wish I could help, but that decision is only one you can make for yourself. Sending good vibes and best wishes it will be perfect for you. |
Reader234 | Friday, December 05, 2003 - 08:04 pm     1. I had an awesome day in downtown Chicago!! 2. Met my cousin, and we did some Christmas shopping (for ourselves, thank you very much!) then met Jackie, the awesome sales manager at the Hilton where the Chicago Gathering will take place!! 3. My back is sore, my shins are screaming in pain! (but what do I do? Come here and POST! and read!!) 4. Everyone has gone to bed, dh, dd, and now DS - who has been getting up at 5:15 AM to make the 6 AM swim team practice, tomorrow is a swim off to see if he can make the Varsity Team!! (its only his second year swimming competatively!!) (Congratulations, best wishes, good luck, congratulations, Hi Hermione - doesnt the DVD have closed captions? big smooches back!) |
