Thanks for all the birthday wishes, everyone!
Bob and I just got back from dinner at an Irish pub called "The Blarney Stone" here in town.It was delicious and reminded us of R&C and Raglan Road. Now, I am home and DISing.
How about you, Jen?
It looks like I'm sleeping on the couch tonight. I tried to take a nap this afternoon and wound up in coughing fits every 15 - 30 minutes. I don't want to keep Chris up all night as I need him to work here tomorrow without complainingI managed to do a lot of spackling today. I also took down the wallpaper border. I knew that I was really putting this off and now I know why. Fixing wallboard SUCKS!! Tomorrow I'll let the boys rip up the tile in the entry, I figure who better to destroy something then 3 boys
With any luck I'll at least get a primer coat on the walls tomorrow, but more likely it will be Sunday. Dad is coming down tomorrow to help, but he can't deal with drywall dust so I'm not really sure where he will fit in

Good to know, thank you!Bob has one for work. I have a Compaq I love (same company).
Thanks!I have an HP pavilion dv6000 and love it. I had that one problem, but they fixed it with no cost to me. Since I'm using it all the time I think it is holding up pretty darn well![]()
I wish you felt better to tackle all this stuff, Deb!![]()
Glad you've arrive safely! Hope it isn't too cold! The windchill was in the teens here today.I don't have time now to catch up, but I just wanted to pop in and say hi and let you know that I'm up here in PA. The drive was ok and the kids were good. I hope everyone is doing well.![]()

Well, I didn't make it to my sisters tonight. The first 8 hours were great. Becky drove the first 5. She drove across the Mackinac Bridge and drove on the expressway (something she had never done before). Weather was clear. Got 10-15 miles North of Lansing and it started snowing. There were at least 3 cars in the ditch in the 10-15 miles before we got to Lansing. Becky's boyfriend called and he was sitting still on I-96 in Grand Rapids. They had closed it while he was on it because there were 40+ fender benders because the roads were so bad. He ended up 2 hours late to Lansing. It took me 4 hours to get from Lansing to Maumee Ohio. The weather was getting worse and I realized if it continued, I'd be driving 30-35 miles per hour which would mean the last two hour drive would turn into at least a 4 hour drive. So I'm installed in a Courtyard by Marriott instead. There is a storm warning until 9am. I'm hoping it clears sooner but if it doesn't, they will be out until 11 because of an early morning appointment so I should be able to get there before they return.
I got home at midnight last night and we were on the road by 8am this morning. That is Lansing time (EST). Of course I live in Central Standard Time so that would be 11pm & 7 am.
So...here I am checking in on my DDA friends.

Hi Ya'll, Just got home from having a bite to eat with Hal and his brother. We really had a good time. I put half the meal in a to-go box and ate the rest. Now I am home in my pj's and ready to enjoy the evening.
I was going to go into work today but my back was saying---stay home. So that is what I did. Will get my hair cut tomorrow.
The kids found a great place to stay down at the shore for a week in June. It is at the Outer Banks and it looks great. I am going to be able to go down for just Wednesday afternoon to Saturday, but I am excited. It really looks like a nice place to stay. Six bedrooms, 4 and half baths, pool table, outdoor pool, big, big kitchen. Just have to make sure there is some shopping nearby.![]()

Dell used to have fantastic customer service. It was really a great company. I have had Dells for almost 10 years - Chuck has 3 or 4 for his office and we have at least 2 for home, plus that is what we have at work. The company has changed and doesn't have the same reputation they used to. I'm sorry about the issues you are having with them.
Denise, I just found out a "little girl"eek
I coached several years ago is going to 'Bama this fall for college!
