Nancy, I really like seeing your light on.

I have to tell you what happened yesterday.


My Mom & Dad (who, as most of you know is in a nursing home) have been hoarding baby dolls. The nursing home keeps them around because some of the residents treat them as if they are real. (rocking them, talking to them, etc.)

My Mom used to make clothes for baby dolls all the time. So when Mike and I went there Fri., I asked her how they have been and she said "We've been going to yard sales all day and I bought some baby dolls" I looked in her bed and sure enough, she was hiding 2 baby dolls under her blankets.

She went on to tell me, she wanted a big baby doll. So Mike & I went to wal-mart and I bought her one for x-mas. It's life size and life like.

As we were walking through the store, I was carrying it like you would your school books (at my side). This elderly lady came down the isle looking horrified, then said... "Oh my gosh, I thought that baby was real."

Great story Robin.

Kristin had a baby doll who looked very real. She was 4 years old and took it to church one time. She was carrying it up the aisle and dropped it to run ahead of Tony to get into the pew. Just then a real baby made a real loud squak and another parishioner yelled...Oh my God and ran towards the doll.

Now you know Chuck and I laughed so hard our sides hurt! We giggled through the entire mass. The horrified parishioner didn't think it was too funny and gave us a piece of her mind after the mass. Sorry to say, I laughed through the entire time she chewed me out.

I hear you had a great time at the mini dis meet Sunday.

And the Packers won too.

I wish we had more people from Ohio on the boards. It would be cool to have a mini dis meet. I guess everyone in Ohio is content at home except us. We have to keep taking cruises.

We did have a lot of fun. A Packer win was the icing on the cake.

Nancy, I really like seeing your light on.

As long as I'm at home I can leave the light on. I turn it off at work so my nosey composey co-workers don't know that I'm DISing. I noticed one of the girls tuned into the DIS one time. She likes to get all the ammo she can get on me.

Great story.

Now that would be me. When I get the giggles... it's all over.

I did that in The American Adventure one time. I say a guy that looked and had the same mannerisms as "Bean". I couldn't stop laughing.

I'm afraid I made it rather hard to enjoy the show.

Can't take life so seriously.

And... As everyone well know... We don't.

Since I only had a couple of the B.O.B. and KK1/KK2 addresses, I wanted to share our 2007 Christmas photocard and letter with everyone.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

we had those same christmas cards made

That's too funny, Nancy!

Robin, Rob's grandmother had a baby doll when she was in a nursing home, too. She held it like it was her baby. It used to make me sad to see her that way, then I thought of it this way. Because of the doll, she was able to show love and feel loved because she sometimes thought it was real. The doll helped to fill her time in between visits from Rob's family. So I realized (with my grandmother's help) that it didn't matter if the doll was a real baby or not as long as she felt loved. Your mom will love that doll you bought for her.

Gotta go Robin. I have to go and check on the neighbors Putty Tat. They just called and said they are staying one more night in Chicago because of the ice storms heading our way tonight. Darn! I thought I was done cat-sitting.

Later Pal

We aren't allowed to get on at work. They worry too much about someone getting in to our system. We are a very big company, (all over the world) so we have to be careful. So it's understandable.

Besides they monitor every site we're on and are blocked from many sites. I can't even get on the Disney site.
We could get fired. I know a lot of people who still check they're personal email. I don't take the chance.

When they're teenagers, you worry about what they are doing while you're gone.

Or you realize that you will always have to call grandma to come down and babysit even when they are 30

Like I can now be referred to as Brenda AKA QUAKK FKA OLBFFFNPWB

I should stop having coffee for lunch, shouldn't I?

Thanks for explaining, I got on and thought what the heck are they doing now!

Andy- great christmas card thanks for sharing. My son's senior year was this past school year and I was the biggest emotional mess. Now he is college and guess what, still an emotional mess.


Cass- Thanks for the pics of the baby, she is growing up as cute as ever. But beans! Boy are you a brave soul.

Ok I have a BOB story. One of my teachers at school is Bob. Now Bob is one of those sweet guys that will give you the shirt off his back if you need it, but the man will not shut up. In fact we are on a year round schedule (3 month on 1 month off) and the teachers look forward to their Bob Breaks. OMG, if you have a story he has a better one. Oh and he has this issue with not being able to look us girls in the eyes, he likes to talk to our personalities. Needless to say I will not be telling him about this cruise, god love him.

I appreciate that. And I'm sure the other ladies will too.

Mine have been getting enough attention... Thank You!

Hey Becky,

Did you do your first weigh in?

How's it been going? I haven't done too bad. Occaisional sweet (which I shouldn't be doing) but I've been hitting the elliptical pretty hard.
