1. Heh - ladies, you made Colossus' day; 2. He's sick with a thore froat, stuffly nose and he's been kind of walking sideways since yesterday; 3. I consider that I represented you all when I rubbed Vic's Vaporub on his 48-inch chest (LOL); 4. I leaned into the strike zone and took it for the team; 5. Anyway, I don't think he's feeling his most attractive, and your posts brightened him up considerably; 6. We just flew in from Greenville, SC Saturday night. It's a beautiful and charming town, with an amazingly clean and nicely revitalized historic downtown; 7. Unfortunately, on Saturday we'd driven by the Comfort Inn where that horrendous fire occurred about 18 hours later, killing 6 people including a toddler; 8. Oddly, when we got to Greenville we both noted separately that the room we were in provided an easy escape route in case of fire. Not something either of us ordinarily think about. Maybe we were both channelling Ginger; 9. Granny is correct - she is Colossus' sweetie, and he was very upset that someone on American Idol was singing songs of love to her last week ("I'm Making It With a Granny Tonight!"); 10. Don't worry, Granny - I made sure he felt well loved even though you were cheating on him on national TV. Just another selfless sacrifice on my part for Granny and the Board. The things I do for you. Jeez. 10.5 I sincerely hope that Egbok, Lyn, Twinks and Spy are feeling much better and are advised they are in perfectly good health very, very soon.

{thanks hermie, I keep forgetting that aspect, you are correct in that it is my son who is hoh. He so wants to fit in... I'm glad you reminded me that to show I care, I have to be a mom, and make some choices that are more parent like than friend like!! May God be with him) LOL Texannie, and Ladytex. .. give a shout out to my brother and his family in Misouri City Tx for me!! Ah GAL, the images you give... {I saw your post, and I am joining you in the Feb birthday land!}

1.I am starting the Atkins diet today.Already missing my coffee!!! 2.My dear dad,bless his heart, just bought a new Blazer and decided to GIVE me his old truck! An s10! I am so shocked. He said he owed it to me since he gave my brother a truck when he turned 16 and never gave me one......like I said...I am shocked. AND SO very grateful. 3.My daughter's birthday is in March, but she is already trying to get me to plan it now. Of course she wants a huge blow out too! Yikes. I just don't have the energy....of finances. 4.I start school back up today. If all goes well I will at least have my Associates degree in 18 weeks! 5.I am excited about this semester though.One of my courses is History (my third History class) and this one covers the late 1800's-early 1900's. Can't wait to dive in!

1. I'm wondering why I bothered coming to work today. 2. I just spent 30 minutes chipping away at the ice that covered my car. 3. I get into work, and hardly anyone is here. 4. They are expecting more rain/ice this evening. 5. I hope I get home before it starts up again. 6. I have a headache now.

1. We are completely iced in. My street looks like a skating rink. 2. That means I am stuck in the house with the kids all day. As long as the cable doesn't go out, we might make it. 3. Silly, that's great on the truck! My dad just gave us $900 to make up for what he DIDN'T spend on our city hall wedding....10 years ago. 4. DH and I were just discussing our vehicle situation. I'm not psychic, but I have a vision of car payments in our future. Uggghh. 5. I had planned to give my son his state required standardized testing this week. But he's being such a space case this morning that I'm a bit worried. 9 - 2 = 9?? I am ready to pull my hair out. I hope it's just a Monday thing and he'll be back on track by Wednesday. He's way above grade level, so the test material will be very simple for him. IF he will focus on it. 6. Hugs and good thoughts to everyone who is sick or otherwise stressed.

1. We are in the middle of a major winter storm warning. 2. It's not coming down hard enough for me to go home yet...darn! 3. I am envious of Hermi's snow day 4. I found out that I made my first post exactly one week prior to Hermi... 5. Due to the storm warnings, a LOT of people must have gotten up and left early for work since I didn't have many traffic woes this morning! 6. I slept & slept & slept yesterday, and I could sleep, and sleep and sleep today... apparently I need some recharging 7. I'm on my lunch, which consisted of McDonald's Big Mac meal today... I have to indulge myself once & awhile, no?!

5{m having a VERY interesting day so far (HAHAHAHA) and I haven't even taught anything to anyone yet. 2. Phone rang at 5:50. It was one of my student teachers telling me that her school was cancelled and not to come out for her 8am observation. 3. So, I relaxed, worked and took a REALLY long bath. 4. When it was time to go in for my 10:30 student, I noticed a strange car parked in my driveway blocking me in. I didn't have time to get it towed or to figure out whose car it was so I walked to work. 5. Did I mention that we have LOTS of snow? But it was relatively warm today. I think it is 14 degrees. 6. My 10:30 student cancelled. One of my colleagues gave me a ride home so I could deal with the trespassing car (it was gone by then) and to get my own car so I could do my errends. 7. Got my errends ready, and walked out of the house with the WRONG set of keys. I am now locked out with no car keys. I can get into the garage, my church and my office. Fat lot of good that does. 8. I walk to the coffee shop to see if my student who house sits for me is working. She's not. We call her and tell her to bring in my set of keys. I go to the bank, and dump my purse out hoping for an extra set of keys. No such luck, but at least I get my banking done. I remember that I MIGHT have an extra key INSIDE my garage, and low and behold, I do. I get into the side door, fix lunch, and put the RIGHT keys in my purse. I'm planning on not having any more screw ups today. HAHAHAHA! By the way, lunch was a delicious plate of leftovers from my Thanksgiving feast on Friday for my music fraternity. Have a good one, everyone!

1. Planning a wedding is the pits! LOL 2. I always thought I would love the process, but I'm getting really frustrated by the whole thing. 3. We're aiming for a an October 2005 or March 2006 wedding, which gives us plenty of time to save and plan. 4. My fiance (very weird to call him that!) is getting sick of talking about it already! 5. He thinks we have all the time in the world to plan with the wedding being at least 21 months away...he has NO clue. 6. I've been cruising the net for dresses for me and my bridesmaids. I'll try to post pictures of them in my folder if anyone cares to take a peek. 7. I decided to use a fortune cookie as one of the favors for our guests, since it was so instrumental in our engagement...I think it'll be a cute touch! 8. I'll be going to a bridal expo in Hershey in Feb. and I can't wait! My cousin, who is getting married this October, invited me so it will be fun to browse for ideas for her and for me (not to mention go on a tour of Chocolate World, which is sooo fun!). 9. I'm off this weekend so we'll be going to visit my future in-laws, and hopefully nail down an invitation list for his side of the family. I think we may exceed 200 people, good lord!

1) I am really depressed tonight. I am feeling old at 39 2) I am so thankful for TVCH where I can escape RL and just think about others......... 3) God, I hate when I get depressed. Can't even blame it on PMS after the hysterectomy! Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed!

1. I had a bit of a scare today. I hadn't heard from my mom in a few days- it turned out she was sending emails to my old (now for spam) email address. Well, I finally read her email and it was about how she had an abnormal mammogram result. She went back today and didn't leave until they analyzed it. Turns out everything is fine. Yay for my mom 2. I had fun in Racine visiting my best friend. She's almost 6 months pregnant and is starting to show more and more. I hadn;t seen her in about 2 months maybe so it was a big difference. 3. We played Cranium all night. I absolutely LOVE that game (ecept for the humdingers and the ones where you have to impersonate). I love the clay ones and the acting out stuff ones. 4. I can't wait until tomorrow night- I hope I have a chance to get online! Bye old board.

I thought this site would be down by now. I thought the midnight hour was the EST midnight hour. Glad I am wrong!! Hope I'm not poking my nose where it's not wanted, but . . . Luv, not sure what meds you take. Did you know that depression accompanies menopause--due to hormonal imbalances? Have you ever considered talking to your doc about a mild antidepressant? Texannie, you taking hormones???? I know that some women have decided to do that despite the latest info about them, but . . . it worries me.

1. Right now my elbows and left wrist are feeling better. 2. Went to the hand specialist Monday morning and was diagnosed with tennis elbow in both elbows and carpal tunnel in my left wrist. (Had surgery for carpal tunnel for my right hand in 2002.) 3. The board-certified (whew!) surgeon I saw was wonderful. He shot me up in all 3 places with cortisone. Much better than surgery!! 4. I took Herc out for a late walk about an hour ago (12:30 am) and the sky was orange! And it was hailing (tiny bits) out! Six to ten inches of snow on the way. 5. Froggie, I know you understand the deadlines better than your fiance', but just remember to enjoy the whole process and not invite undue stress. 5.25 Glad Kaili's mom is okay. My maternal grandmother, mom and sister have all had breast cancer. Knock on wood, I have been okay so far!

1. Spent the day running errands and doing miscellaneous odds and ends for work. 2. Went into chat and visited with LOTS of people all waiting for board to come back up. 3. It's getting cold here tonight. Should be a hard freeze. 4. I'm sleepy already. Hopefully I'll stay up at least one more hour. 5. Tomorrow I only have one meeting scheduled. Rest of the day I should be able to catch up on paperwork. 6. Hope everyone has fun on the new board!

1. Had a really long day today with no TVCH! 2. I guess I should have gone to chat, but it scares me. 3. I'm glad you are feeling better, Herckleperckle. 4. I'm glad Kaili's mom is okay too. 5. I didn't think I was going to watch My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance, but I think it is hilarious. 6. The rat is still in my garage. We are now trying cheese in the trap. 7. Still no word from the vet on my dog, Janie, we are going to call them tomorrow.

1. I just bought a new fishtank. 2. I have nowhere to put it. 3. It's soooo nice and my angelfish are going to absolutely love their new home once it's all set up and ready for them. 4. It's a 30 gallon but it's tall rather than wide. My 29 gallon is wider and shorter. 5. My boyfriend is going to have a fit when he gets home and sees what I've done. 6. I don't care. 7. I had a really hard time getting it in my car. 8. I'm slowly adjusting to this new board. I like it. Yay.
