Lyn | Wednesday, December 18, 2002 - 06:05 pm     What's the count at? Umm, I think I'd do five 1) Hubby returned to work tonight for the first time since his burn (dr say another couple of weeks but...) 2) My boys kept running out of underwear and I couldn't figure out why. For some reason they wear TWO pairs a day (14/w) 3) I never seemed to run out so I counted mine...thought I had 14 pairs but have 50+ 4) That's a honking lot of underwear 5) I feel a Bing Crosby song coming on...I'mmmm Dreaming...of a Whhhhite...Christmas |

Phatcat | Thursday, December 19, 2002 - 01:09 am     Don't have a clue how many to do, so I'll just go crazy...and do 500. NOT!!! 1. Am 64 and Santa Claus. 2. When I have free time, I park my car on side of road, don my sunglasses and point my hair dryer at passing cars to see if they will slow down. 3. First job was at a 5 & 10 store. I was 12 years old and made $.25 an hour. Worked 3 to 9, Monday thru Friday, and 9 to 9 on Saturday. 4. After 3 years at 5 & 10, I went to work (same hours) at small department store across the street from 5 & 10. Better wages...$.35 and hour. 5. Bought my first car...1949 Ford Coupe...in 1955 for $500. Had sunvisor, mud flaps, a cow bell in floorboard. Big swan hood ornament. I was the coolest girl in town! And beat all the guys at drag racing. 6. Went to ATM today. When $20 came out, I yelled, "I won. I won! Third time this week!" 7. Played a lot of tennis after graduating high school. Tore cartileges in knees and Doc totally removed the cartileges in both knees in 60's. 8. Now weigh 8 gazillion pounds 'cause I can barely walk and need knee replacements. 9. Dance in my recliner every time I hear Billy Preston sing "Nothin' from Nothin' Leaves Nothin'". 10. Downloaded above song so I can listen to it whenever I want to dance. 11. Everytime I go to a drive-through window, I tell the person taking my order to be sure that they know my order is "to go". 12. Married my high-school sweetheart in 1959. 13. Divorced my high-school sweetheart in 1960. 14. Never remarried and lived happily ever after. 15. Went to the zoo last week. When I got ready to leave, I started running toward the parking lot (NOT!!!) yelling "Run for your life. The animals are loose." 16. Went to college after divorce. 17. Started singing demos in Nashville for $1.00 a song! LOL 18. Worked up to full-time in music industry, backing up the stars. 19. First big hit I sang on was Mel Tillis's "Who's Julie". I am the one singing the extremely high notes all the way through. I was scared to death and Mel kept stuttering at the end of the song where he spoke..."and now you know, and don't ever ask me again...". Each time he would do that, the producer would do another 'take' on the song, instead of just editing the ending. ARGHHHH. I was a WRECK. 20. Adopted my baby girl when I was 32. One of the 1st single people to adopt in Tennessee. That was in 1970. 21. Had just started full-time in music industry and had no guaranteed income, but don't think the judge even noticed that I was single. 22. Had lived like the devil after my divorce, until I got my baby girl. Started taking her to church, and the Lord changed my life. 23. Bought my first house in Hendersonville, TN. in 1973. Still live in same house. 24. Had a craft shop at a local campground in 1979. Had church services for campers and Bible study for kids. 25. One couple left their 2-month-old son in a tent at the campground for 9 and 1/2 hours...and the temperature was 98 degrees. This was in 1982. 26. I asked the couple the next day if I could keep the baby in my shop for them. Two days later, they asked if I would keep him at my home since they were living in the tent. 27. I adopted that precious boy and he will be 21 next April. God is so good! 28. Always wanted to have a children's home. Had 30+ families live with us over the next 20 years. Some stayed 6 to 9 months up to 4 years. 29. My daughter's birth mother lived with me for 3 months before daughter was born. 30. When my daughter got married, I took her to meet her birth mother. I had not heard from her in 22 years, and she had never told any of her family about my Staci. They are now close friends. 31. At daughter's wedding, her birth mother and her husband and son were there. When the usher walked me down the aisle, we stopped at the birth mother's row and she walked the rest of the way down the aisle with me. God is so good. 32. GOD IS SO GOOD!!! I LOVE HIM WITH ALL MY HEART!! 33. I now have 3 beautiful grandchildren. 34. Seven years ago, I had a business that went 'bust' and filed bankruptcy. 35. One of the kids who had lived with us, wrote a letter to the editor about my situation...since the bank had foreclosed on my home. 36. People started bringing me money and one man paid off my mortgage. 37. GOD IS SO GOOD!! Sowing and reaping!! 38. I would have still been paying on the mortgage until 2003!! 39. My best friends all belong to TVCH!!! 40. GOD IS SO GOOD!! 41. My furnace for my central heat went out 2 years ago. Can't believe it held up that many years without any problems. I have one small ceramic heater that keeps my upstairs about 45 degrees. And a wonderful electric blanket. BUT I LOVE IT!! Just can't stand hot weather!! The old body really adjusts. 42. GOD IS SO GOOD!! 43. Probably could list 500 things, but will stop for now. 44. I LOVE YOU GUYS...AND GOD IS SOOOOOO GOOD!!! |

Spygirl | Thursday, December 19, 2002 - 02:23 am     1. It is 4:13am and I'm up tornado watching. 2. I've already spent 40 minutes huddled in the closet with my dogs after one tornado cell passed overhead. 3. Another one is about 15 miles south of here again right now. 4. I'm waiting on the issue of the tornado warning again before I crawl back into that tiny space with three confused dogs. 5. I'm wondering if anyone is still up. 6. I really wish I had a sick day to use and I'd use it today because I've not had much sleep. 7. I'm hoping we're on #7 and headed to #8. |
Phatcat | Thursday, December 19, 2002 - 02:30 am     1. I am up and praying for Spygirl. 2. I am telling Spygirl to read John 14:12 3. I am speaking peace to the weather in the name of Jesus...and praying for the storms to be still and to calm. 4. I am sending my love to Spy. |
Spygirl | Thursday, December 19, 2002 - 02:56 am     Thank you for the prayers, Phatcat! Everything is now safely (for me) east of here. Spygirl now really prays that we can get back to some numbering order in this thread so that I don't have to call in Wargod the Terrible...we are on #7 and the next person needs to do 8  |
