1. I'm glad everyone got a good laugh over my stripper story, an event I won't forget anytime soon!

2. We got at least 4 inches of fresh white snow outside. Funny how all the cruddy old snow just finished melting this past weekend...

3. I hate shoveling snow, but DF doesn't shovel good enough around my car so I just suck it up and do it myself.

4. Hard to believe it was 55 yesterday...today it's 25!!! Where are ya Spring???

1. Daughter had oral surgery yesterday, all 4 impacted wisdom teeth removed.

2. I can't believe how hard it is to watch your child in pain, even when they are almost grown.

3. I bought so many "soft" foods for the week that I forgot to buy dinners that can be chewed for the rest of us.

4. I guess we are all having mac and cheese for supper since I can't go get more groceries due to the snow storm.

5. I'm so ready for spring and tired of snow storms keeping me in the house.

1. I'm doing lunch in my cubicle (half a veggie sandwich and hot coffee), so I thought I'd check in with this thread. It's my favorite!

2. Thank you Hermi & Juju for your supportive and kinds words. And Hermi, just how precious to hear that your nephew wanted to come and live with you...too cute!!

3. Essence, I hope it's going better for you by this time! Kaykay, I'm glad you posted in here and I hope to see some more of you!

4. Froggiegirl, I hear Spring is just right around the corner. And Secret, you sound like such a great mom and taking good care of your dd.

5. I did get a great start on the "project" this morning, although I have been feeling the pressure and some stress. After the umpteenth phone call that I received, I finally decided to put my calls on "forward"....awwww, what a difference in moving forward with my thought processes. (now if I could make the blinking red light go away on my phone)

6. BTW, I checked the notepad I placed by my bedside last night and I didn't write anything down, so I must have slept soundly through the night...yay!

1. Okay...I just looked out the window and it's snowing again!

2. I want to know who shook up the snow globe!

3. I am so stressed this week, it feels like Thursday.

4. Considering I had a snow day yesterday...today is supposed to feel like Monday!

5. The daughters are taking a road trip together later this week to Chicago.

6. I sure hope the younger one finds a new job soon as she lost her job last week and is stressed out big time.

7. Can't wait to get home and snuggle under a warm blanket. Is it almost spring yet?

1. It is 70 degrees here right now.
2. I do remember 2 years ago on this day, my husbands cousin got married and it snowed. Unusual for us.
3. We are on our way out to play outside soon.
4. It is supposed to start raining again on Thursday.
5. This being Oregon, it could rain from now until June, so we have to take advantage of our sunshine.
6. I went to Trader Joe's today, I love that store!
7. I also got my car washed today. There is contruction going on at a house down the road and trucks are going by constantly. I went out to my car this morning to take my son to school and couldn't believe how dirty it was. Now it is nice and clean, for a little while anyway.
8. My son hates the car wash, he screams the whole way through, I don't take him there anymore, but even if we drive by it he says he doesn't want to go there. He loved it when he was a baby and then one day all of the sudden he decided it was scary. So I go while he is at school.

1. I still have jet lag and am trying really hard to stay awake! I got up at 4am this morning....

2. I have a phone interview for a full time church job in Chicago tomorrow at 10am. Should be interesting.

3. I also got invited for an on-campus interview at a state university in Illinois about 4 hours from my parents. I hope I can go on a Friday, since I don't teach on Friday.

4. I thought that all the jobs had dried up this season, but low an behold the job mentioned in #3 "closed" in December...I applied in January and they are just now selecting the finalists.

5. We are having a horrible snow storm today. I don't even know how much snow is out there, as I've been at work since 8:30 or so this morning. Many schools cancelled.

6. I am going to German table tonight and I brought a German newspaper with me. This will be fun, if the roads are ok enough for the people to get there.

7. One of my students got engaged during break. This was a bit of a surprise. They will wait a year to get married.

8. Our faculty are not happy campers. The budget is HORRIBLE. People are crabby. Leadership is bad. BLECH.

9. Thank you for letting me vent about that!

1. I am home again, and this time I don't plan to leave until DH and I and the kids are all together!

2. My grandpa's memorial service was nice, but of course sad.

3. My sensitive 8 yr. old DS got very upset, I think more from seeing his big tough uncle (my brother) weeping. I had reservations about taking him to the service, and though he was pretty distraught, I think overall he needed to go.

4. There were 18 relatives that came from IL, LA, FL, AZ, and GA to NC. Some of them I hadn't seen in 12 years, some I'd never met!

5. I think the hardest part for me was when the family was hanging around the house and Grandpa wasn't there on the sofa, waiting for someone to sit and visit with him, or asking us about our lives.

6. I had to rush back today, because we had a meeting for DH's redeployment. They didn't tell us anything too new that I didn't know.

7. I did find out that he is probably going to be in Kuwait in the next day or so, and then it will be 7-14 days till he's home.

8. No one can say exactly when they'll be home, but it seems they are guessing about another 10 days.

9. I am exhausted from sleeping on a twin air mattress at the foot of the kid's bed in my mom's workroom, then trying not to cry and smiling at so many people.

10. I am glad to be home.

1. I am so glad that your dh will home with you soon.

2. I know how hard it is to lose someone you love and just feel like they should be there when you are all together.

1. My DH is off doing community service today.

2. He got another ticket, and thought he could fight it (which he has done a pretty good job of in the past) but the Judge said no-way Jose.. LOL

3. Because he is still without a job, he asked to do community service instead of the fine. So off he went, wheelchair in tow..(his foot is still not healed from his surgery....grrr) Can't wait to hear what they had him do.

1. Happy St. Patty's Day!

2. I got a letter from DS#1 today. He says things are going so much better. What a relief!

3. I love Spring Break, I just wish it were longer than one week.

4. My DD has had either track or softball practice or game everyday so far. I don't think she will have one day without until Saturday, sheesh.

5. DD and DS#2 want to go spend money in San Marcos, sigh ...

1. Happy St. Patty's Day! Such a fun day, I love wearing all my green garb.

2. I recently started a different position at work and have been "training" for the past three weeks...still not getting it.

3. It's sooooo frustrating that somedays I feel like saying "Screw it!" and taking my old job back.

4. I think I need to just relax and be okay with the fact that no, I don't know everything, and it'll be a while until I do.

5. If only I would win the lottery...

6. Crappy day again today, and it's looking worse through the weekend. All I have to say is it better NOT snow on Saturday because we have reservations at a Japanese Hibachi Steakhouse, and I really, really, want to go!!!

1. Happy St. Patrick's Day to All!!

2. We visited another preschool this morning for my son to go to next year. I really liked this one and think it is the one we will go with. Everyone was really friendly and the kids looked they were having a good time.

3. Then we went to the park and had a really good time. Jenna was trying to walk up the slides though and it was freaking me out.

4. I found some ants in my den today. Last year they about gave me a nervous breakdown because they were everywhere. I can not go through that again.

5. I really want to go on vacation.

6. I think we are going to go camping this year. We haven't been since we've had kids, but want to get back into it. We are probably going to rent a yurt the fist time and see how that goes before we pull out the tent again. Has anyone ever stayed in a yurt?

7. I want to go play golf.

1. I should be in bed right now but I can't sleep.

2. The project at work is very stressful for me but I see light at the end of the tunnel...whew!

3. I bought my dd some very pretty lingerie from Victoria's Secret today and I'll give it to her on her 23rd birthday coming up in a few weeks.

4. Egbob just informed me that he, dd & ds#2 are going to NY for their Spring Break to meet up with ds#1.

5. I can't go because I'll be taking some time off from work toward the end of April and I don't want to use up all my vacation time before summer even arrives.

6. I'll start writing up a list titled, "Things for Eggie To Do While Home Alone".

7. #1 on my list is "Shop til you drop".

8. I really don't like being by myself, so I'll have to get on the phone and start making some plans with the girlfriends.

1. Happy day after St. Patrick's Day everyone!

2. I had a fun birthday- we went to the brewery/resturaunt that's downstairs from the comedy club at 5:00- everyone else got there at about 6:30.

3. I had some enchilada thing- not sure what exactly it was cause it was just called the "Vegetarian Grande" but it was really good.

4. no green beer for me, but they did have it. Tim had corned beef and cabbage with the biggest carrots I have ever seen in my life on the side. They were cut in half, and no kidding- the full width of the carrot would have been about the size my lower arm.

5. The host guy and the first opener guy were funny, the third guy on stage was awful. I think most people were laughing only because they didn't know what else to do.

6. The main guy was really good. I think his name is Rob Little and he said he'd be hosting some upcoming FOX reality show but didn't give any details.

7. My mom sent me a basket of flowers. The flower guy came pretty early and I had to go answer the door in my pajamas. I don't know how I sleep but when I wake up my hair looks like i stuck my finger in a socket and I had to go to the door like that. Heehee. Here's me hiding behind them....after I was up and dressed!

8. It's snowing...again. Nothing is really accumulating but it's wet and sloshy out. Enough already!

9. Yesterday I tossed out all my old white socks that were getting thin (which really is all of them) and bought all new socks. I hate buying plain old white socks, but I'm going to love them once i wear them!

1. I'm leaving town today - will be gone until Sunday. Gonna go to OKC tonight and then into Texas Friday.

2. I went out for St. Patrick's Day last night - it was pretty fun. I was home by midnight.

3. I PASSED MY NATIONAL LICENSING EXAM!!! YAY!!! I got the results yesterday. I am now a clinically licensed therapist in this state (I was in Louisiana, but didn't have to take the exam there).

4. That means I can get listed on insurance panels and become a provider. That also means I can now afford this house I'm buying - I'll have clients in my private practice!

5. I got allllllllllllllllllll the options I wanted in the structural part of the house - including the fencing. I met with the builder on Tuesday morning.

6. The upgrades will cost me about $60 more a month! Ack! I need the private practice!

7. I'm now working with Resortgirl to figure out what flooring and cabinets are within my budget. It is possible that I can't really afford any of them at this point, but I'm gonna find out before ruling it out.

8. I'll post the details of the options when I get back this weekend.

9. I saw the dietician for the hypoglycemia on Monday. THat was sorta a waste of time, but I did get some information that was useful. I've put on about 9.5 pounds in the last 3 months and the biggest reason is that I've been eating too much peanut butter as a means of controlling the low blood sugar. It is too high in fat and I'm gaining weight because of it. We have to put the Kabash (sp?) on that immediately.

10. Have a great weekend everyone! See you on Sunday!

ACK! I should have refreshed! I just did 10 for nutin' - lol
