Hi Robin! Hope you have a Merry Christmas, too!
Everyone who's so inclined, please pray hard for my family member tonight and tomorrow. The biopsies are tomorrow. Please pray first and foremost that she's okay, but also that the testing will be done correctly with no problems, is as painless as possible, and that it will be accurate. Please pray for me too. I'm very scared.
They brought my son a little-boy sized skateboard. He and my daughter are in the kitchen with it right now. He's sitting on it Indian-style, wearing his Santa hat, and she is launching him across the kitchen.
It's pretty darn cute.Our neighbors slogged 1/4 mile through the snow to bring my kids' Christmas presents over today.They brought my son a little-boy sized skateboard.

My dad brought a ton of gifts home today that everyone at the hospital where he works (he's the administrator) gave him. They make homemade food in the cafeteria (this is a twenty bed country hospital, keep that in mind) that will blow your mind, it's so good.... the lady that cooks it all compiled a cookbook of all the recipes she uses and gave it to my mom, so we'll be eating really good from now on.

Hi Robin!Merry Christmas.
Has anyone seen any previews for Glen Beck's new show? I've only seen him, no hit of new logos or sets. I hope he doesn't change his Art Deco logos, I LOVE that stuff.
No, I haven't. I'd love to see some though. My mom hollered at me earlier to let me know she'd seen a commercial advertising his show in January but darn, I missed it.![]()
[/QUOTE]

me three or four.. whatever number we're on! It reminds me of all the times someone has asked me "What has he done for our safety?" and my usual answer is, "We're not supposed to know, that's exactly why we're more safe!"This was so moving to me. I respect this so much more because it was so private. He could have done this with cameras blaring, but it's 1000 times more meaningful when done privately.
Ok, confession time. I'm sort of familiar with Glenn Beck, but I've never seen his show. I just saw a preview of his new show on FOX, and I have to admit that he sounds like my kind of guy.![]()
That was great!! They certainly picked two words that describe him well....On the videos page, type in "Glenn Beck" in the search videos box. I saw the one labeled "Bold.Brash.Beck."

You're going to love him! He's the kind of guy who talks great, and you end up screaming ME TOO! at the screen!
Soarin> Have a magical trip!


and I mean, ME TOO in a positive, "Yeah that's what I've been trying to say" kind of way! I know the beck watchers understand!
I never saw Glenn as that far out there. Some of his guests? Now, I still laugh about the "buy rice" guy. I was unemployed, we were cutting everthing out, and I still was not going to be convinced that we should buy up large bags of rice. Maybe its because we don't eat a lot of rice? LOL

I should be packing but would rather just not fool with that right now.... plus I'm so shocked at myself, I have actually left Glenn's first book that I bought today (The Real America) stay safely out of my reach buried under all the stuff I'm taking with me. Maybe I actually will read it on the drive down.....

i don't know 'bout that....eventually you're gonna pack and there that book will be! maybe it should live in the car until you leave!
So I do believe I'd rather not risk becoming a human popsicle.
I'll go lock it up in there now.... but wait, I'll freeze to death in the process!! It's like in the 20s out there right now!So I do believe I'd rather not risk becoming a human popsicle.
And yay my countdown finally ran down!! So I think tomorrow I'm going to de-Christmas the signature.... so it'll be non-holiday when I get back.
hmmm...maybe you could QUICKLY pack the book and shove your other stuff into your suitcase so that the book is incredibly difficult to get to.
so envious of the trip...soooo envious.
My suitcase is going on TOP of the car in one of those luggage things (you know, that you can stow all your vacation crap in).
I hope you have a fun trip, Soarin! Merry Christmas, and have a safe trip down there and back.
I'm about to quit for the night, folks. Tomorrow will be a stressful day. Thanks for all of the prayers. We need them.
I just sent up another prayer for you.
I do!!Anyone else miss Sarah? I DO!! I hope she doesn't disappear- that she fills in the gaps some people thought she was missing so she has a real chance in 2012!
as y'all may have heard, california doesn't have enough money to operate past february. arnold is being pretty hard-nosed (thankfully) and has directed representatives to make cuts. 'course that isn't popular here, because it means cutting nonsense programs, and these guys want to be elected again, but whatev.
they are attempting to pass tax increases, obliterating the 2/3 majority vote as provided by proposition 13. part of this attempt is calling the increase a "fee" rather than a tax. gimme a break!

you don't change the constitution to make up for stupidity.
i'm just sayin'...
This state has been so poorly managed.Everyone who's so inclined, please pray hard for my family member tonight and tomorrow. The biopsies are tomorrow. Please pray first and foremost that she's okay, but also that the testing will be done correctly with no problems, is as painless as possible, and that it will be accurate. Please pray for me too.
