Well apparently the word is out that "I better not show up over there (but not quite in that language if you know what I mean)".Uh, okay, sure, whatever you say.
Ain't censorship, threats, and cowardice grand, since people can't say things directly to you, but feel all big and powerful on a messageboard.
Just checking in to say hi.Things are just no fun here on the CB anymore. On the plus side I won't be on the computer as much which will make my teenagers happy. They like to just their my space pages all the time.
Anyhoo, I miss comiserating with you guys.
I don't know that I ever got to post on the old thread but I am quite the lasagna lover (as are most other Army wives that I know).
Just wanted to say hello!
Hi all. Wow, take a couple days break from the computer, and I guess things change a lot. That'll teach me!
As a Garfield fan since childhood, methinks he should be our thread mascot. He's all about the lasagna!
Those of you who were keeping my grandmother in your thoughts and prayers, it's much appreciated. She got her test results back (fluid tests and 6more x-rays of her lungs), and the "small spot" the original doctor's office saw on her lungs turned out to be scar tissue from pneumonia. She had it back in the 1930s, I believe. This specialist's office had better x-ray machines and saw what it was right away. The original doctor then saw them and said the same thing. The original office then told my grandmother: "Our machine isn't any good, so whenever we see something on an x-ray, we have no clue what it is." Oh, how nice.
Anyway, as of now they think the fluid problem is due to an iron and potassium deficiency. How that translates into fluid, I don't know, but they're testing one last vial of blood before putting her on potassium and iron pills. I'm just thankful her lungs are okay!
They said her heart is slightly enlarged in one area, but it's so insignificant that it's nothing to be concerned about. Whew. Good news was a welcome change, that's for sure!
**cruisin' the cb** I feel like I'm living in a sequel of the Stepford Wives.
This is exciting.
You know what? That's the most happening thing on the CB.
Good grief.
to all the new "faces". It seems like we are growing in number even with the new rules.
I just hope and pray (oops thats religious) that we aren't eventually banned from enjoying our lasagna and forced to eat arugula.
I'm just a bill.
Yes, I'm only a bill.
And I'm sitting here on Capitol Hill.
Well, it's a long, long journey
To the capital city.
It's a long, long wait
While I'm sitting in committee,
But I know I'll be a law someday
At least I hope and pray that I will,
But today I am still just a bill.
Figured this would have some relevance in today's age....except the highlighted parts.
OOOOHH-ME!!
I got 20 extra credit points in 5th grade social studies because I could recite the preamble to the Constitution-thanks to Schoolhouse Rock! The teacher was also giving out points to those who could recite the Gettysburg address, but that wasn't a Schoolhouse Rock song, so I didn't!
I have the DVD with all the ones on it-I wish they made the CD's still with all the ones on them-esp. the math one. I could put it in my car and my kids could learn their times tables that way. I've seen the CD's on eBay, but they're around $50.00 each.
Yes, I'm a 70's/80's child-I had wings AND big hair (not at the same time, though!)
If you know it through SHR it is impossible not to sing at least a little. I have the DVD too -- I need to get the CD for the car. My little one has learned her 3 tables from 3 is a magic number.... We've also acquired The Electric Company. Unbelievable the number of big name stars on EC. Gene Wilder was Letterman.
