ok, i have been mia due to a personal problem the last 24 hours,

ahem.....your note?

this one threw me for a loop.
did not expect her in the top 3 for sign ins.....

me either.... (but she was pui...maybe that had something to do with it?)

this was a given, knew she would be either #`1 or 2 in the new thread.

(i try not to disappoint my fans)

was surprised, thought tracie would be in position 1 or 2 not 4th......

again....that'd be TRICIA!

well, the moving van pulled out of the driveway a lot sooner than i thought it would be....

that took me by surprise also
and i paid the rent up to the 25th of the month........

i need a refund!!!

Didja see Janet runnin' after the movin' van cuz it packed up all her nanners?? What a sight!!

ask brab what to do.
she will know what to say............

When all else fails, break out the little white book.... has lotsa good lies in it

due to all the smilies, i'll never get all posted with the quotes if i don't break it up and post this part now.

only reply to a page at a time

i went to church, i can't be all that evil.
but my twin sissy sure is.
she sat in the back pew and smoked in drank in church on sunday.
i was totally embarrassed.
at a sbc church to boot......

does the stripes make my butt look fat?

and, to answer your question..."NO"

before i start surfing and until forensic files comes back on, i need to answer a question.

i leave on the 18th and will be gone 8 days

Janet, your font is not huge on my 'puter! I needed a magnifying glass to read it.

OK, here's my gag of the day. I hate young, blissfully happy pregnant people. They get on my nerves. I do not need to be mailed your sonograms on a regular basis. And I don't need to see pictures of you being tiny, tiny everywhere except for your little belly that is growing, but you just think is SOOOO HUGE!!!! And, haven't I welcomed your baby enough when you first announced your pregnancy when you were about 2 days late and when I bought you a baby gift a month later and then when I just purchased something off your shower registry even though the baby isn't due till the end of July? Yes, the title of my latest email this morning was "WELCOME LANDON JEREMY!!" with about 4 sonogram pictures attached. Yes, "welcome" but the baby won't be here for 4.5 months. Second of all ... Landon? You want a quarterback and you're giving your poor child the first name of Landon? Landon? Really? Was that their "cute" way of announcing the baby name? Frankly, I find Landon obnoxiously preppy, but then again, I don't have kids for a reason. Am I really posting this on a message board?

Idol tonight. Yay! Apparently it is Beatles night. Go Jason! I might even vote (since I won't be able to do that once I get home).

 

[coastermom]

Hello all again ..

I did not come on last night as I was too tired and not feeling too well either . All this and my DD12 is going to be suspended from school to boot. She borrowed a pen in school which had a laser pointer on it and that is considered a weapon. So off I go to see the dean today at 10 AM. Not only am I annoyed at her for being so dumb but I am just as annoyed at the school. Never mind the phone thing a few weeks ago but it really is just a pen that she borrowed and she didn't even know it was a weapon. AHHHH I need a . I thought this was suppose to be getting better as they got older not WORSE !

So I also vote to STOP THE WORLD because I want off now too .

I have got to get my stuff together now and I will post later to let everyone know how I did at . I hope that it goes smoothly .


Sharon I noticed in your pictures of the hotel room you had a slepnumber bed . Did you like it ? I have to say my number is anywhere between 45 and 50 and I am sleeping like a rock.

My DD ,the older one ,did lego robotics and loved it but it is not offered in our Catholic High Schools and she didn't like the public HS here . I know the legos are different but they are also run by the FIRST people.

Off for now .... I'LL BE BACK ...

 

[tlinus]

mac - Glad to see you back!! Sorry about the problems - hope things are better now. Also loved the pui

barb - Its spring sport season and soon I will be

right along with you....3 kids on different baseball/softball teams. Frank actually has practice tomorrow night (first one), still waiting to hear from the girls coaches KBean is going on her 8th year of softball but this year its for our local team, not the old team. Should be interesting.

patty - WELCOME!!!! Hope you enjoy it here as much as we do

katie - you need to watch what you say now, huh?? or else - spring break next week??

janet - We don't use citibank. You should open an ING account and transfer the money to that somehow. We don't have one, but my cousin does and she said they are so easy to use/get to your money. Their interest rates are pretty good too

todd - for renewing your pass - hopefully you will be invited to a certain preview soon and of course let us know all about the ride

lawrence - Great job yesterday!!! Keep up the good work - we are here for support as well

penny - How you doing? Thanks for keeping track. Hard to see myself in 4th place.....Tony better step it up a bit.

mike - You know how much we yak

but we sure are glad that you are lurking. What a hectic schedule you have had - yeesh!!!! Be sure to keep us posted on how you are doing!

sharon - Hey there

- and I like P-fin!!!

tricia - Good Luck Easter Bunny!!!

jodie - Now I can see why Dumber is named Dumber. Losing out on the shift diff?? How sick was he really?? Pffft - I don't work outside the house, but I function everyday - no matter what. As far as your disdain for the newly prego - hey, you are entitled to your opinion, we live in a country where you can express yourself freely, go for it!!! For the record - I always got miffed by those strangers who felt it ok to touch my stomach

tammy - thanks for asking about the basement - it was not as bad as last winter, so that was a bonus, but still a PITA to clean up could you send me the cheat sheet too?? (I am pretty sure Barb sent it to you)

lori - glad to see you back jump on in and let us know how the weekend was, ok?

allison - hope you are feeling better today

mary - hope you are feeling better soon as well Sorry to hear about dd. Seems to me its not right and I would be as mad as all get out.....didn't she tell them she only BORROWED a PEN and the owner of said pen should be in trouble as he/she is the one who brought it to school to begin with?!?!?!?grrrrrrrrrr - let us know how you make out with the principal.

damo - Morning to you too!!! I may actually watch Idol tonight if its Beatles night!

I think that makes me all ketched up - need to go do some Be back later, gaters!!!!

 

[coastermom]

Tracie ... I have the Cheat sheet were you looking for it or was Tammy ??

Ok went to the School to see the Dean of the grade and the AP. The school rules are that it is considered a weapon and that well as long as there was possion they have to suspend her . The AP was actually sympathatic with the situation as there were 6 kids involved and most of them said that my DD only had it for 5 min to write with . There were other kids that were suspended longer and for more of a serious infraction . I am glad it wasn't her . She will have to spend the day with him for her suspension on Friday. It will come off her record at the end of the year and she will be OK with the high schools then . I was glad to hear that and happy to see that he had no idea who my DD was and told me that she has always done the right thing there and he was supprised to see that it was her . Made me feel better about the whole ordeal.
She was so nervous she almost cried when he called her to come to the office to see us . It mad me feel a little sad that she was really that nervous being in his office. Everything is all better now but she is still going to be punished . Just on the principal of being suspended .


Ok off to clean up a little and maybe get in a nap.

Be back later .

I agree...her font was small???

This pregnant lady you rant of....friend? coworker? family? Pregnant women tend to have horomones all over the place...they are just so excited (esp. if 1st child) and really have no idea how annoying they are....honest. Best to keep your distance I guess? Sorry you seem to get all "these" kind of people? (Brother too....)

Idol tonight. Yay! Apparently it is Beatles night. Go Jason! I might even vote (since I won't be able to do that once I get home).

How are you going to vote? Do you have landline in SC?? I know you can vote via cell in Canada....but can you use your Canadian cell to vote in US?

janet - We don't use citibank. You should open an ING account and transfer the money to that somehow. We don't have one, but my cousin does and she said they are so easy to use/get to your money. Their interest rates are pretty good too

yep...I've heard that about ING accounts....they are very good....(but then again, it's overseas and of course their economy is doing better than ours right now....)

todd - for renewing your pass - hopefully you will be invited to a certain preview soon and of course let us know all about the ride

TODD....forgot to ask you...while you were on the phone renewing, didja make sure they have your current info for the newsletter and such?

sharon - Hey there

- and I like P-fin!!!

And there would be your 'second'.....

tammy - could you send me the cheat sheet too?? (I am pretty sure Barb sent it to you)

WHAT?!? You've lived here a long time...YOU shouldn't need a cheat sheet....

mary - .....didn't she tell them she only BORROWED a PEN and the owner of said pen should be in trouble as he/she is the one who brought it to school to begin with?!?!?!?grrrrrrrrrr - let us know how you make out with the principal.

I agree

Ok went to the School to see the Dean of the grade and the AP. The school rules are that it is considered a weapon and that well as long as there was possion they have to suspend her .

That was quick! Glad they 'took it easier' on her...especially if she didn't know it was a 'weapon'....how again is a laser pen a weapon? Anyhow....lesson learned: bring yer own pen! In my eyes, a minor (needless) offense and it sounds like she got the beegeezus scared outta her...so, the end of the year, it comes off her record....all will be right!

I guess they just have to follow the rules. I remember when my son got suspended for a day because he had wrote in a note something stupid about "getting rid of the girls". Well, he was only ten and it was just a figure of speech and he is the most placid kid you could ever meet. However, rules are rules and he served his sentence. It was funny because he, too, had to spend the day in the principal's office and the teachers would come in and tease him because he was such a goody goody. It is funny now that we look back at it but it wasn't funny then.

Oh-my-good-Lord. You are my hero!

Good luck on your job interview, Penny!

P.S. Really, really, I know I'm going to burn. I'm evil to be annoyed at my cousin's wife. Perhaps my exhaustion and annoyance would be better explained if I told you this makes time #4 that I've had to tell her that she cannot send her umpteen sonogram pictures to my work email. She doesn't zip them, and they come across as huge files. Huge files are always flagged by the server. Her friggin excitement is going to get me fired.

 

[bubba's mom]

Huge files are always flagged by the server. Her friggin excitement is going to get me fired.

Did you tell HER this??? Tell her if she gets you fired, and you can't afford to keep your home, tell her you are moving in with them

Maybe that'll make her stop

 

[dolPhinlovEr83]

Coastermom: I am a , and yes, rules must be followed. Of course the stories that the students say are listened to, and that usually results in a lesser sentence, as it did in your DD's case. Great to hear it will also be taken off of her record at the end of the year! No worries, but it's good to hear that some students are still nervous and intimidated about going to the principal's office. That's nto so true for all students nowadays.

Barb: I guess P-Fin is a winner

Tlinus: Thank you for the warm welcome

 

[AlexandNessa]

Yes, but she is too excited to care.

 

[marciemi]

Okay, I know you thought I'd never find you again!

Not sure what the deal was there. I did notice that Phantom had given the link to the new thread, but didn't realize that the old one was closed. So I just kept getting that there were no new posts and continued merrily along my way!

After a bit, I realized this didn't make sense, so went to the Universal Board directly (I never do this - just link from my User CP) and found the 3 thread. I read the 4 pages or so that I'd missed, and since I didn't have a chance to reply then, I just subscribed.

Only to find out that it evidently didn't work, because I STILL kept getting that there were no new replies, but when I went in, I'd missed several pages!

So anyways, you all can relax now. I've stumbled over here and hopefully now that I'm replying, I'll get the notifications!

WELCOME pfin!!!!!! Yeah, just what we need - more young'uns to make us feel old! (Just kidding, in case that's not obvious!)

Thumb is doing better today. Seems like as long as I take Motrin and keep it taped, it's okay. It doesn't hurt to move the thumb as a whole, just to try to bend it at all. So now I'm down to an ace bandage, which keeps it from bending. It's still swollen, purple and painful, but definitely improving!

In case you were wondering which things are virtually impossible to do without a thumb, they include opening anything that requires pulling with both hands (seemed like everything for dinner last night, Ziploc bags, etc.) and stupid bra straps. Sorry, but there's no way to do it other than to hook the bra and then wiggle into it! Yeah, great visual, right?! All I can say is Thank Goodness it's my left hand!
