1. Today was a better day!

2. I ate a "pulled chicken" sandwich and sparkling white grape juice for lunch at our staff luncheon. I'd never eaten either before.

3. I'm the oldest of three kids and the only girl. I hope that my assertiveness (read that "bossiness") didn't ruin my younger brother's lives! They both have very bright, headstrong daughters who both look quite a bit like me! LOL

1. 8 years ago this week I met the cutest, little 8 year old ragamuffin charmer wearing an outfit at least 3 sizes too big with unevenly chopped strawberry blonde hair who immediately wormed her way into my heart.

4. I am the oldest of 4

1. Tornado anyone? This area is getting ready for what is anticipated to be a terrible night.

2. My little Jessie dog seems to be doing good. I can't tell yet whether the fluid is going down yet in her abdomen, though.

3. The rats seem to be peacefully residing in the wall, although I appreciate all of the suggestions I've received about how to get rid of them.

4. I found out about yet another job opening today. This one is in Lubbock, Texas.

5. I'm not a fan of west Texas, but I think I'll apply anyway.

6. I can't remember what personal facts I've shared before in this thread, so I'm fearful I will repeat some.

7. I speak fairly fluent Spanish and lived in Mexico for a summer in college learning the language and history.

8. My favorite city in Mexico is Guadalajara.

9. I am absolutely, positively terrified of Tornados. Just ask Marm, Gracie, RG, Sage, or Lance if you need confirmation about this.

10. I left work early today when we had a tornado warning in our parish earlier. It didn't matter that the tornado was north of our area.

11. I live right on the edige of the "greatest threat" area that the weather channel is labeling as what is likely to be the worst tornado outbreak of the year and within the top 10 ever recorded.

12. I hope that anyone within this line of storms tonight is paying attention closely to the news.

13. I smell food that my neighbors are cooking and it smells heavenly. I will likely have soup.

14. A wonderful gift arrived at my doorstep yesterday from a very dear friend. It is an incredible scale that measures weight and body fat. I can now track my weight loss progress at home. I'm soooooooooooo thrilled!!!

15. I haven't seen my real hair color in years. Last I remember, it was a dirty brown color. Now it is blond and has highlights.

16. The main reason I colored it was because I was already getting gray hair. My aunt had silver hair by the time she was 20.

17. I am semi-researching what the process is like to donate eggs for couple's struggling with fertility issues.

1. Spy's post has me worried about the weather.

ok, here goes, i'm gonna try for 18...some may be nonsense and i am going to apologize in advance for that.

1. we are having tornado weather here, too, spy...i am the biggest chickensh*t, when it comes to them.

2. last night after watching "tornado warning" updates for an hour straight...with 2 cells being on either side of the part of town that i am in, i decided that if i was going to die, i would rather not know about it, and went to bed.

3. put the kitty in her carrier and put her in the bathroom where there are no windows....just to be safe.

4. we had 3 fatalites in a town about 30 miles away from a tornado...it hit a mobile home park.

5. i feel sorry for spy tonight...sounds like our weather is heading her direction.

6. going to work out again tonight...luckily it isn't torture-woman's night to teach...WOO HOO!

7. i went out to eat with my department for lunch today for our "christmas party".

8. there are only 4 of us in the department and they only time we can all be nice to each other is when we have these lunches.

9.i had a friend visit me at work today and bring me my b-day/christmas present.

10. it is a sterling silver ring, with a black onyx stone (black being my favorite color) from silpada.

11. i was with my friend at the silpada party when she bought it, so i kind of knew about it...she was trying to be sneaky...lol

12. if i don't hurry with these, i am going to be late to workout.

13. tomorrow is my last work day for the week.

14. i am so excited about TAR tonight. don't know who i want to win though.

15. i am so glad to see suki back here...i missed her!

16. i hope there are no more tornados here again tonight.

17. i am glad i don't live in a state that has hurricanes...i can only imagine how much of a nervous wreck i would be if i did.

18. i love martina mcbride too, lori. i think she is just about the most talented female vocalist, and she seems like a very sweet person, too.


whew, gotta go before i miss class...lol

I grew up in tornado country and once we were eating out at a little family type Italian restaurant, and my Grandma kept saying she heard something...
We kept saying "Oh Grandma, you are crazy...it is just the noisy window air conditioner..." and we finished our dinner...
When we went outside, there was a tornado happening- it had touched down on one end of town...hit a trailer park...and skipped over it...there were beds and bathtubs and things flying over our heads.

My Grandma never let us forget it!
