1. The four-year old dachshund that I adopted had to be returned to the SPCA today.

2. He HATED my boyfriend (who I live with).

3. He barked and growled at him non-stop and snapped at him quite a few times, even ripping the leather on his sneakers.

4. I had a dachshund while growing up who was the most lovable dog you'd ever want to meet, so this dogs behavior was really scaring me.

5. This dog had been living with an elderly woman, so we're thinking he's a one person kind of dog.

6. I feel sooooooo guilty for having to return him...even though I only had him a short while, he was my buddy and I will miss him terribly.

7. The people at the shelter were very understanding, and now know the dogs personality a bit better which will help them in placing him in the right home.

1. I'm sorry for Froggie, the dachshund, and the boyfriend. I'm sure that was difficult all around.

2. I completely understand War going in for a twelve pack of pop and spending $34.56. That's why I send dh to the store whenever possible, he only gets whats on the list (and usually he doesn't even get everything on the list!).

3. I envy Silly for being able to sleep in . . . I feel like I'm never going to catch up on my sleep.

4. I hate cold weather, and I'm dreading going home, since I've been sitting at my desk all day with a space heater 3 feet away from me!

5. I also hate conjunctivitis, which I have once again. It's lovely, let me tell you.

6. I'm almost back to feeling like myself.

7. I've been wondering if anyone misses the five question quiz. Anyone?

8. I hope I can convince dd to go to bed early tonight. I'm sleepy!

1. I really admire Twinkie for her heart and am positive things will turn around soon for her dh.

2. Happy Birthday, Miss Eggie!

3. I adopted Janfts today! Shh. Don't tell Eggie that on her birthday she became a Great-Great Grandmother.

4. I just broke a tooth veneer. Again. Different tooth. First one was covered. Doubt if this one will be. (Think bad words here.)

5. I walked Herc at 9:30 a.m. for an hour in 16 degree weather. Two pair of gloves. Wore my pajama bottoms on underneath my jogging pants. Turtleneck with hooded sweathshirt and scarf that fits over the head. Afterwards, we went thru the Drive-Thru Dunkin Donuts not for doughnuts but for a LARGE SKINNY LATTE. Yes!!!

6. I signed up for the Discovery Body Challenge and will be weighing in at the local Channel store at our nearby mall on Saturday. I went back on my LA Weight Loss diet, including drinking all the water I should. Tastes good to me again!

7. Resortgirl, I've been asking about exercise videos. Going to add type to my list!!!

8. My thoughts go out to Froggiegirl about her sister---and her doxie and boyfriend. Hope Jbean is feeling better by now and that Spygirl's finger and Cindori's eyeballs show improvement soon! Wishing luck to Legal because I know she had an interview today.

9. The bad thing about sticking to a diet rich in fruits and veggies is--you know. Does Beano really work????

10. I had carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand a year and a half ago. Now I can't seem to lift anything even a little bit heavy with that arm without experiencing pain. Though I had a touch of carpal in my other hand, surgery wasn't recommended for it. I am also having constant pain in my left elbow. No, I don't play tennis. Is it really essential that I fall apart simply because I am over 55???? (I have made an appt with my doc for a physical.)

1. thank you so much to everyone for the nice thoughts ang hugs to me in regards to my day from hell!

2. i am much better today. i bought some ibuprofen and a red velvet cake mix last night. good combination for my current ailments. lol. i feel GOOD!

3. herckle, i know what you are saying about the healthy foods....when i was doing the weight watcher thing, it seems like i had constant ummm...stomach problems. never tried beano, it is kind of expensive.

4. we had a heat wave of 36F degrees today. downright hot almost!

5. ((((kalli, jewels, all the people suffering through blizzards etc))))) i can't imagine! 2F degrees is bad enough. can't imagine what the -20 winchills are like.

6. kalli, i have an obsession with stocking caps these days. i think it is due to the fact that since my hair was really short for a long time, and now it is longer, i can finally wear hats without looking like a boy. i love hats!

7. i hope eggie-grandma is having a fabulous birthday!

8. i forgot how funny american pie 2 is. that kid just kills me with all of the situation he gets himself into (think superglue). rofl.

9. for some reason my dk (kitty) decided she needed up on top of the refridgerator. wth? testing to see if she really has nine lives, i think. grrrrrrr.

10. i wish it were friday......ready not to be at work anymore.

1. I'm glad Jbean is having a better day and I think she should go run out and get another cap. I like them too even though my hair just pops out a bit around my face and maybe and inch or so in the back depending on how far down it's pulled :)

1. The sound effects during the superglue scenes are hysterical, Jbean.

2. I'm sorry about the puppy, Froggie.

1. I liked the American Pie movies, but I never saw American Wedding, any good?
2. My road and yard are an ice skating rink, nothing has melted, it is freezing rain about an inch thick over snow. Wonderful. More to come tonight.
3. My son is watching Clifford's Puppy Days, my husband and daughter are sleeping, for once my house is so peaceful. Yeah!

1. Jewels, I thought it was great. There's more Stiffler and several of the characters from earlier movies (Oz, his girlfriend, Kevin's girlfriend, and her friend) are not in it.

2. My vacuum is acting up again. It runs for a few minutes then shuts itself off. I think it overheats.

3. It's actually warmed up enough here that I have the backdoor open. Sorry everyone who's up to their ears in snow and ice.

4. I think I've done more laundry today than I have in the past two weeks. Seems like the kids go through less clothes when the're off school.

1. To try to cheer me up over the whole puppy thing, the BF took me out to dinner (well, I ordered french toast) at Cracker Barrel.

2. This morning I felt ok about the possibility of the dog going back to the SPCA, but once I got home from work and realized he was gone I started to feel really depressed.

3. The BF feels really guilty over this whole situation, but it's not his fault...he thinks I'm mad at him. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.

4. We may try to go the puppy route instead of the rescue dog route, but I need some time to get over this first.

5. My posts the past few days have been really whiney! I'm usually not like this. On a good note, I'm off tomorrow and Friday!!!

jewels, i thought american wedding was funny, too. but i still like 2 the best. the whole band camp thing, the superglue. i could go on and on. but wedding is definitely worth renting.

1. My co-workers decorated my cubicle with cute "50" birthday signs, colorful streamers, and lots of "5-0" confetti...everywhere!

2. Here's a picture of me with my delicious chocolate cake, please ignore the dumb hat which they made me wear for the picture:

GloCake

3. They gave me a charm bracelet with lots of little silver hearts...do they know me well or what?!!

4. I'll be going out to dinner in a few minutes to eat my big, fat juicy steak dinner!!

5. When I get home, I have a few gifts from my sisters, mom and the kidlets to open.

6. All in all, it was a fun day today!

5. I can barely breathe, my head hurts in every sense right down to my throat, but my stomach is fine
6. Now sneezing is a good feeling for my head, but give me an urgency I don't have time to do anything about

1. Accccchhhoooo! I'm joining Gracie with the sneezing thing. This is week two of my head cold/sinus crud. At least my throat is ok now. I broke down and took Tylonal/Allergy/Sinus last night and this morning. I'm not supposed to have decongestants yet because of my dry eyes from the LASIK, but I'm hardly using any eyedrops, and, frankly, I'm tired of being miserable. May I suggest "Fisherman's Friend" cough drops to open up the nasal passages? One of my choir members gave me some and they are like a miracle drug!

2. I'm Soooooo glad that I wasn't on I-80 going to or from NYC. That BIG wreck is on day two of the clean up. Eastbound lanes will be open today. Westbound only open with one lane. They found two more bodies last night. There was hydrochloric acid and other toxins burning for a whole day. The haz mat teams and firefighters have been working round the clock in this crappy weather. Makes me complaining about my head cold seem quite insignificant.

3. I had a great rehearsal with my choir last night. I have music in their folders for all of January and most of February. They are ready to go for the next two weeks and the following two weeks won't be that bad to brush up. They are great people!

4. I haven't had time to run off my resume/vitas so I can apply for other jobs. Dratted head cold! I MUST do this today!

5. Classes start on Monday. I still need to do two more class syllabi, but I have some done. I HATE the spring semester because I have lots of conferences and it is very hard to get everything done. Or maybe it is because I've taught an overload for the last several springs. I DON"T have an overload this spring. Maybe it will be better.

6. I'm going to have to stop, since I'm in a complaining mood. Or maybe I can get the 10 done and finish up for Rosie!

7. I got the antenae on my car fixed. It was only $30 and didn't take very long. There is a wonderful mechanic there who takes very good care of me and my car. I now have a bottle of touch-up paint for any more scratches on the car. It's SO nice to have the radio back on.

8. I had good intentions of cleaning up my piles of stuff. Maybe I'll still get to it before school starts back up. Maybe not!

9. I'm not going to NYC this weekend. I just don't have enough energy. I also have to practice with two young musicians who will be adding drums and flute to contemporary worship for the first time.

10. I really want to see "The Producers" with Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane. I haven't seen "The Producers" at all yet. Looks like I will be standing in the standing room or cancelation lines. I can't seem to snag a ticket on Telecharge, but the broadway boards say that some of the premium tickets are released a couple of days before for the normal $100. Maybe I'll just do the $30 standing room.

1.DH let me sleep in again and and got the kiddo up, ready for school and to the bus stop. Hmmm....do you think he is tired of us not talking????
2.Despite that, I am still up at 7am because I had a nightmare last night (no Jesse James-boo hoo)
3.I won't go into all the details here, let's just say it involved a certain person from the Starting Over house and my ears could possibly be bleeding.....

2. Sorry to hear about Froggiegirl's doggie mismatch. :( Keep your chin up, and keep looking, Froggie...you will find the right pup for you two!

(Eggie, I just love your birthday picture!)

1. I stubbed my little toe lastnight while heading to bed and I think I broke it.

2. It is swollen and very sore.

3. I was going to go buy some boots tomorrow, but I guess I'll have to wait since I can't put a shoe on my right foot right now.

4. I'm going to have to cancel my massage appointment for tomorrow too.

5. Dennis is going to come pick me up tomorrow sometime and take me to his house for the weekend. :)

1. Hope your toe mends o.k. Sage. It would be hard (and slippery!) to walk around our snow filled (and soon to be ice covered) sidewalks with a hurt foot.

2. Kids are home from school again today, because of the weather. That makes Monday, Wednesday and Thursday thus far. Enough to make a Mom crazy!

3. I was sooooo ready to have them back in school after the holidays!

4. All you Oregonians: we are now waiting for all that freezing rain and sleet that will put a nice "crust" over all our snow. Yikes! I'm ready for it to end.

5. Enough complaining. Hope others are having a great new year. We are fortunate to have our health, a roof over our heads, heat and food aplenty! Could be worse.

6. Eggie: being 50 is not so bad. You have a built-in "excuse" now. It's amazing how much I blame on it being an over 50 moment. LOL. Happy Birthday!
