Hey you

You having a good day

Not the best day at work. I walked into a real mess at work. The computer system had gone down at 3 p.m. Saturday and they weren't able to do any of the close down stuff so it had to be done this morning and since the system had been down so long lots of stuff was lost. What a mess! But once we got that done, around noon, the day got better. We were very busy with ski traffic, though!

I KNOW!!! He has to decide if he really wants to go, and then I'll put the down payment on the trip

WooHoo! I hope he decides he wants to go!

WOW! I remember one day when I worked in a grocery store the lights went out and we had to write down all the barcode numbers & add everything up with a calculator for HOURS!! not the best day at work either

Me too!! I don't mind going alone, but I would LOVE for him to go with me. He's my favorite cousin

Not yet, I'm to busy sitting on my rear with this computer .

Did you have a good Christmas??

We had a wonderful Christmas. Kids got lots and lots of presents and were thrilled. They were very lucky in that so many of our friends were so generous with them this year and, I'm proud to say, they realize how lucky they are and are very appreciative!

My DH surprised me with a laptop! I was totally shocked!!!!

I'm sorry! I know you were hoping for the razor phone. What else had you asked for??

not much, I think that was the only thing I asked for.

I think I won the prize for the worst gift given though

Yep, I've been through that before. Not 'cause the lights went out but because the entire computer system went down. We ran the store like that for four hours but then finally had to shut the doors. They stayed closed for almost 24 hours before they could get it fixed!

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

That's great!!!
My girls got a lot of stuff too and it's going to take me forever to find places for everything. As the girls get new things we give some of the old toys to needy families in the area for their children. Stephanie knows we do this, but I don't think she totally realizes how blessed she really is - she will as she gets older (I hope).

That's great about the laptop - that's what I have too. Mine stays on my kitchen table at all times, unless it's a day like today when it's on my lap while I'm in front of the TV.

Have a good night everyone - my laptop is saying "low battery" which is my cue to put that frozen pizza in the oven.

Bye!!!

Ok so I know x-mas is about giving not about recieving, and everything, but I really wish they would have just said "Sorry but we didn't have much money this year and couldn't get you anything" or just not give me anything. I'm not gonna cry or anything I would rather that than what I got!
My moms friend who I really went out of my way to buy her dd a dvd set that she really wanted, and I got a blue ceramic tote that you put pencils in. if that's not bad enough, b/c it's something I would never use, it said "Thanks for being a top seller" or something like that on it. it was from AVON!!
Then we went to my aunts house for christmas night and my godmother gave me scrunchies!! HELLO!!! I have short hair and can't use them

Our boys have always been blessed with hand-me-downs and they know they are. I don't know what I'd do if I had to buy clothes for three growing boys all the time. We have several friends that have boys just a little older - and bigger - than our boys. We usually have stuff in the attic in sizes just a little bigger than what they wear and then we go "shopping" in the attic each season. The boys love to do this. I'm lucky that they like hand-me-downs!

My laptop will probably always be on the kitchen table, too! I'm on our desktop right now but I'm going to get the laptop out in a little while and start learning all about it. I really haven't had too much time to even play with it yet!
