You hear it speak,

for it has a hard tongue.

But it cannot breathe,

for it has not a lung.

Good Morning Riddle Friends!

I am looking forward to a busy day today. We are closing the deal on a new (used) car for my 18-YO DS. He's going to school full-time and working part-time and has been borrowing our cars to get around. That has meant lots of confusion and driving gymnastics to make sure that everyone has gotten to where they need to be, when they need to be there!

This will make all of our lives a little simpler!

It's a '96 Honda Accord with 78K miles and it is in WONDERFUL shape. It has a 4-cylinder engine so it's not all that peppy.....a parents' dream!

Hi riddle friends...been kinda out of it..been sick as a dog with sinus infection, strep and what I think has also affected my ears. I am a mess....Anyway, brain not functioning at all the last couple of days.....

Just wanted to say hi!!!

 

[oldkicker]

Get thee to some chicken soup, Glo.....I do hope you're feeling better soon.

Thanks, Mickey. I imagine the vast majority of those posts have been right here, shooting the breeze and doling out pants.

I noticed yesterday athat our riddle bud spb has reached a posting milestone - 1,000 posts. Just want to say CONGRATULATIONS to her too.

Morning OK and riddlers.

Congrats to Kick, Glo and SPB! I saw your 14999 yesterday and thought for sure you would wait until this morning to do the big 15,000, Bernie!

I know what you mean about the brain not working when the head is "stuffed", Glo. My allergies have been working overtime this week since I have been out at the new place where all the goldenrod abounds!

We now have a HUGE hole in the ground and lots of rocks to pick up.

Congrats on the "easy" wheels for the DS, Bernie. Our DS finally decided to go to college. He is coming over today so I can help him do the financial aid stuff. He is quite excited about it. Maybe it is best that he waited 9 years to do this!

 

[oldkicker]

When are you planning to move into the new place, Diane?

It sure does seem that kids are going to do things when they are ready, doesn't it? We had hoped that my DS would be away at school this year, but he's just not ready to leave yet. While having two teenagers in the house is sometimes cause for great uproar, we're happy to have him here.

UPROAR! UPROAR!!!

Sounds like a car going too fast......teehee tee hee....


I like a bit of upheaval in the house. Makes me feel alive....just not at 3am, thank you very much!

Good Morning, Riddlers!

Yes, our DS had a difficult time right at the end of High school. He went to a private school to avoid some of the "problems", but in his senior year, his best friend hung himself in one of the classrooms over the lunch hour. A teach found him and took him down and started recussitation. He called out the door for help. As it turned out, Ryan was the one who answered the call. They did CPR until the ambulance arrived, but there was too much brain damage, and a few days later they turned off the machines. It was a very traumatic time for our son. It has taken a HUGE toll on his life. I am so glad he is trying to get back into the stream of things. He is planning to take architectural drafting as a 4 year program from Herzing College here in Minneapolis.
