Hmmmm.......reading between the lines here. I think I was doing those same "other" things. Very important things to do.

Does this fall under the header of TMI?!

The Theta experience for Samantha has been wonderful. She did the website for her sorority.

beautiful daughter Noel!

I'm sorry, but if I paid somebody to clean my house, she'd be the one cleaning everything. I thought that was the point of having a cleaning lady!
]

As much as DH and DD's hate it, we always clean before our cleaning lady comes. Mostly because if we leave clutter around, she will put it away somewhere and it will never be seen again! As a child I remember always complaing about cleaning up for the cleaning lady and her I am doing it to my kids!

Got registered for my classes for next semester! Now I just have to come up with thousands of dollars for next term by the end of April. Got screwed by school. Before I took this semester off, I called and asked about the procedure for doing so. I was told to submit something in writing saying I was only taking the semester off and that I'd be registering for classes the following semester. That's it. Well, about 3 weeks ago I got a letter in the mail from school saying, "We regret to inform you....." that basically since I took a semester off, it reflects negatively on my academic progress and I'm therefore ineligible for Federal student loans until I attend at least one semester to prove satisfactory academic progress. Huh? I'm 1/3 of the way done....not in my first term. Seems to me I have satisfactory progress. I'm not academic probation or anything either. Sure...right...I have $8,000 sitting around gathering dust that I can pay for this semester with....yeah....easy as pie....NOT!!! Had they told me about this when I inquired about taking a term off, I never would have. Oh well.....lesson learned.....NO taking a semester off.

OK....done venting. Sorry. But on a happier note, I was able to get most of the classes I wanted. Surprising because so many filled up before my assigned registration time.

Everybody enjoy your day! I'm off to the gym and then out with a few girls for a drink and dinner!

Holly....so sorry to hear about that. I hope it all works out for you. It must be a very frustrating situation to be in!

Have a great day everyone.

We live just a few miles from the original Harry Ramsdens, as in fish and chips in Epcot.

It used to be a lovely place to go with great chips(of the fries variety), but it isn't as good nowadays I'm afraid. We haven't eaten any in Epcot though to see what they are like.

DS9 has his beautiful smile back again. The dentist did a nice job with the bonding. Can't even tell that about 1/2 of his two front teeth are fake. He was a real trouper at the dentist. It's just a killer for him to have to lie still for an hour with his mouth open but not talking. He is an incessant fidgeter and talker.

Thanks for all the well wishes.

 

[granmaz]

I'm glad it all went well and he has his smile back. He did do well to be in the chair for an hour.

 

[granmaz]

Well, I'm yawning here so off to bed. Have a good evening talking and I'll see some of you tomorrow.

Happy Birthday to you Cork! Have a lovely weekend.

Story of my life too as I want to know where things are so I put them away!!

Night, Marilyn. See you on Friday at some point. I will be taking a flight to San Diego in the AM so not sure when I will be back on the computer.

It seems a lot of you will be gone this weekend. Everyone have nice trips and Birthday's. Maybe it will be quiet so you all won't have so much to catch up on.

Rhyming Cockney slang:

trouble and strife is WIFE, so pot and pan must be MAN....right?

PJ couch surfs! Sharing a cabin on the Magic requires earplugs for the snoring and sleep-mask so she doesn't get with the sight of John1 or DrHug in their skivvies. We do not want to scar the poor girl for life!

Thanks for clearing that up!

DIS boards are going down this evening at 11:00 PM ET and word is not sure how long as they need to fix "outstanding issues. No word on how long it will take."

Sigh......

 

[HollyTyler]

I pick up personal stuff that is on my desk and stuff like that. I lay out the sheets so she can change the beds and put the laundry in the laundry room. Our house doesn't really get that dirty with the two of us so it is mostly dusting, floors and bathroom to be mopped, counter to be cleaned and vaccuming. Takes the two girls about 3.5 hours every two weeks and afterward my house looks and smells wonderful!!

Sounds great! I desperately need a cleaning person. I'm slightly challenged in that area.

Sorry....But Karen started it!!

Holly....so sorry to hear about that. I hope it all works out for you. It must be a very frustrating situation to be in!

Have a great day everyone.

Thanks. I'm just hoping everything doesn't fall apart. I've come so far to let this stop me. I'll make it happen somehow.

Great news!

Wow! I've been gone for hours and only 2 pages to read! Slow night here. Alejandro was really busy while my friends and I were at the restaurant, so I didn't want to bother him. Just managed to catch a smile one of the times he was running back and forth. I had planned on sneaking a couple pictures with my phone for inquiring minds, but completely forgot. Will try to remember next time I see him.

Glad to hear it went well and he was such a trooper. I don't think I could sit there for an hour without getting grumpy.

Thanks. I'm just hoping everything doesn't fall apart. I've come so far to let this stop me. I'll make it happen somehow.

Keep us informed.

Let me second that Marilyn, Happy Birthday!! I wish you many, many happy returns of the day!!

Sorry to be absent so much by my job has had me out of the office for 2 weeks and then I picked up costume mom duties, and I am just whopped. But, without further ado...

The roll call has been updated!!!!

However, it also appears that we may have lost some folks who were on with all the work they have been doing on the boards. So if you were on there and you are not anymore (and ya didn't ask me to take you off) PM me and let me know. I have a master list on my work computer and I can try and merge the two to recreate the whole list.

Trying to catch up on all the messages I missed. You all have gotten really chatty on me!!!
