NC Beast has a new hobby. He is going to have an indoor cooking herb garden. We may change our front bushes and add some flower beds in the front and maybe get some trees.

Today I am going for the MRI on my knees.
I'm going to be at the hospital for about 3 hours this morning into early afternoon. I wish I could read something while doing this, but I just have to lay there. Oh well, I'll just close my eyes and relax.


Later gaters!!!

I'm going today to get my MRI results - I'm a little nervous (biting my nails)
I already know there's a problem, because the technician called me yesterday and said, "The Radiologist sees areas of concern and he wants to know if you've had trauma to your knees or surgery to your knees." I told her no - so we'll see what the area of concern is in about 6 hours.

Morning..

Thanks for the congrats for Eric. this weekend he has lots of parties.. and no schoolwork.. Geoff on the other hand has tons to do for his AP euro class..including a take home test and a paper..It really concerns me that he has signed up for 4 AP classes for next year.. I don't know where he will get all this time to do a good job in each..

Fighting Illini Move Past Penn State Into Big Ten Quarters



Illinois prevails 66-60 in opening-round matchup.



I am working on the kitchen remodel and I have been looking at solid surface countertops. Lowe's has a big sale on them wher you get a free integrated sink. Does anyone have these and what do you think about them? DH is concerned about the spills of coffee or pasta sauce being permanent stains.

Congrats to Eric!


4 AP classes is a pretty big load---but, Geoff seems like he is organized enough and dedicated. My sister and I went to a school that at that time had limited number of AP courses. She had 3 (Biology, English, Cal., maybe she did 4---history?) and I took 1 AP (biology, but could had also done history, English, but the class times would not work with my Spanish 5 and other courses plus the counselor wanted me to have a couple of classes with an easier load). My sister graduated 2 years ahead of me, and may had less required tests and requirements.

Geffric--- We dream often about redoing our kitchen (it was cheaply dione by the builder). I want better user friendly cabinents and the counter tops a nicer color---material is not important plus a tile or other material.



Congrats on Illini's win! I think MD lost in its 1st round and I have not yet check on the various NC teams.

.

I can't afford to redo the whole kitchen much too much $$$$.. so i an having the cabinets refaced and a new countertop and sink. The appliance will stay the same as the floor plan et al.. I don't have the $$ for a new floor or wall paper yet .. so... but it should be an improvement.. I'll take before pictures once it is clean

We did not have a good saturday afternoon. I had witnessed a bad 1 car car wreck that occured on the main road that stopped at our road. The car had 2 guys and one was able to get out on his own---the other one needed the jaws of life. I had to call 911---3 times--- to get them plus update info & told them that the guys need a translator. The one guy that got out said that they were from Honduras and did his best to speak mostly English. Well, I did not see them being side swiped for their long distance wreck---took out 2 mailboxes on opposites of the road before it hit the ditch hard enough to flip over 4-6 times between 2 telephones (did not hit the poles). Apparently , these guys were drinking (the one talking guy said 1 beer, but there were a lot bottles that poured out once the car was back on all 4 tires...2 hours later) and about a mile or so up the road before---they nearly sideswiped a neighbor's mom. Well, 2 of our neighboring houses don't know yet about the damage to their property---the state trooper said that he will try to tell them.

I'm still a bit rattled since I saw the majority of the wreck. NC Beast tried to help the various fire depts. and police units. We got to see a lot of the neighbors on our little street---a lot of them are hoping to do something to slow down the speeders.

I'm sorry you had to witness that Belle Seeing things like that are never easy. I hope your neighbors damage isn't to extensive and can be fixed inexpensively

 

[geffric]

NC Belle..I am sorry that you had to witness that.

I am really loving this time change this early
Normally, I get so used to it being light out when I get up, that it's a real bummer when it's dark again. This year, I didn't get used to it, and now it's no big deal. Plus, it was so nice having it light out longer yesterday - that makes me feel like spring is almost here!!!
