Archive through December 02, 2002
Mygetaway | Saturday, November 30, 2002 - 10:32 pm     1. I'm watching Trading Spaces in London right now. (Or I should say when I started this post an hour ago...LOL..) 2. I watched The Bradys in the White House last night. It was pretty stupid, but I had to watch it anyway. 3. I guess I'll watch While You Were Out Next. But what happened to the little blond curly headed chick that did the first couple shows? 4. I got to see my Mom today. (yey!!) 5. She looked pretty good, and seems to be doing well. 6. I hate the fact that my health keeps me from being able to help her more. It's not fair. 7. I've been reading this thread first everytime I sign on, but have been trying to slow down on my own posting to it. 8. Yesterday I cut and pasted all my facts to a word doc and it was 4 pages long. 9. I spend 99.9% of my online time here at TVCH. However more often than not, most of that time is spent composing and then for whatever reason not submitting the posts I made. I hate that I do that. 10. When I first came on tonight, I almost started a list about how angry I was at my DH at the moment. 11. Since then I've calmed down. I just hate having to be the one who always has to say "NO" we can't afford that right now.. 12. Especially since he works so hard at his job, and then has to be my caretaker too. 13. Monday we're getting new vinyl windows put in on the main floor of the house, and it's stressing me out big time. 14. Hopefully after it's done then we'll take advantage of a refinance and get our payments down a little. |
Kristylovesbb | Saturday, November 30, 2002 - 10:33 pm     1.I grew up very poor 2.9 people lived in our house 3.House was 700sq. feet 4.We never had any grass in our yard 5.All the kids in the neighborhood congregated in our yard and trampled it. 6.My mom made us sweep the yard once a week with a broom. 7.I had to go to the grocery store and buy the family food for the week when I was 8 years old. 8.My dad dropped me off with 40 bucks and a grocery list and picked me back up. 9.I was embarrassed as hell when the cashier asked where my mom was so she could pay her and I pulled out the money and paid her myself. 10.I also had to start cooking the family meals at this age. 11.I was scarred for life because now I cook for an army and It is only my husband and myself. 12.I once wet my pants when I was little and talked my sister into changing panties with me and she got the spanking while screaming to my mother that I peed in her pants. 13.I now live a life of luxury, don't have to work, live in a 3 thousand sq. feet home, drive a new vehicle, eat like a king, have my own bed, a tv that the picture tube is right side up and all of this I worked, my you know what off, for and think I deserve it. 14.I am one of the happest people you will ever meet, my childhood made me tough not angry. |
Pamy | Saturday, November 30, 2002 - 10:47 pm     Kristy..loved the wetting pants story! I also happy for you, you DO deserve it! |
Kristylovesbb | Saturday, November 30, 2002 - 10:49 pm     Thanks Pamy, sweet of you to say that. I am glad you enjoyed the story. |
Webkitty | Sunday, December 01, 2002 - 02:39 am     1. I woke up at midnight to watch Trading Spaces and now I can't sleep 2. Its chilly and I have two bathrobes on 3. I just finished off the rest of the pumpkin pie from Thanksgiving 4. I've been on many cruise ships but only sailed once 5. My husband took me to the Bahamas for my 40th birthday. I was in the best shape of my life, and he still carries a picture of me in my bikini in his wallet 6. On that same trip, we were on a deserted beach, and were starting to get frisky, when another couple showed up out of nowhere and caught us. 7. They were British, living on the Island, and offered to take us around to all the cool non-tourist spots, it was a wonderful day 8. I still have the beautiful shells I found on that trip 9. Another time, we were snorkling in the Gulf of Mexico, and a shark swam right past my husband 10. From then on, he listened to me about not going out to far! 11. On time, we went camping on Cayo Costa, and during the night, a racoon tried to unzip our tent. My husband scared him off, but I could hear him as he looked for another way in, so I slept with a big knife in my hand the rest of the night. My husband still teases me about it. 12. The next morning, a little girl was bitten by one that was in the trash can. We packed up and left. 13. I've seen manatees in the wild, up close, they were awesome 14. I love the smell of giant Redwoods, they are awesome too. 15. Yawn, I guess I'll try to get some sleep now  |
Teatime | Sunday, December 01, 2002 - 05:25 am     1. I can't believe I'm the only one awake at my house. 2. I enjoy learning about everyone through this thread and hope that each member posts eventually. 3. Two days ago, there was green grass covering my lawn. Yesterday we got several inches of snow, and it's gorgeous. 4. I had fun walking the dog last night because he goes nuts in the snow and I found some snow drifts for him to barrel through and a snow "mountain" for him to leap up! 5. My kids had almost as much fun as the dog. 6. There are several evergreen tree farms in my area. I am always surprised to see the first shipments go out in mid-October. 7. My mom saw a pileated woodpecker in my yard two days ago, and I haven't spotted him yet. I haven't seen one here the last couple of years so I hope to see him soon. He's the guy that looks like Woody Woodpecker with the crest on his head. 8. I don't drink as much tea as I used to, and my dental hygenist thanked me. 9. I am making an imitation suede skirt for my daughter right now. So far, so good. 10. My property touches the yards of two retired school teachers who are each on their own in their homes at age 101. 11. My property touches the yards of two men who each died this year in their 50's of cirrhosis of the liver. They were both Viet Nam vets. War sucks. 12. One of my brothers was addicted to cocaine and alcohol for 29 years. He's been clean for 5 years now and it's good to have him back. 13. My other brother is still an alcoholic and I miss him. 14. Sometimes I wonder how I got to be the only lucky one. 15. I am still obsessed with someday raising chickens so I am still looking at houses in the country. 16. It's 25 outside, but 75 inside. I love an overheated house! |

Djgirl5235 | Monday, December 02, 2002 - 12:02 pm     1. Monday's definitely blow, especially when you almost run over a 65-year-old man turning a corner, then almost rear end some IDIOT doing 60KM/H in a 100KM/H zone (when the flow of traffic is 125KM/H) GGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRR 2.
