Something about Nothing, come join in........ Part 3

[loribell]

the cat hates the sound of this air cast i am wearing. it does sound like something dragging right outa a bela lugosi flick...

think i will drag to bed.


good night all..


start thinking about your bucket list

here is another- always wanted to ride horseback along the sand and the water at the seashore.

Let's just hope the cat doesn't decide to play with it.

I will do some thinking for my bucket list.

Mine either..."tell me where to go and what time to be there" is about all i get....However, once there, we ask Bubba what he wants to do first, next, etc....kinda go with the flow

I did forget to mention that Ally does help sometimes. She did plan her birthday day last year. Of course that was a VERY busy day. We had breakfast at Donald's @ AK, then spent the morning riding EE and a couple other things, went to the BBB for her makeover, then to Chef Mickey's for dinner and ended the night with a swim. She is a commando tourer! I try not to let her plan days anymore. She does let me know where she wants to eat and that many trips to AK are required.

That doesn't matter...IF you'll be there and it works, we'll do it...if it don't work, it don't work...wasn't meant to be (altho, i hope it does!)

I hope so too. I was so disappointed when we were not able to meet up with Marcie & family last year.

at least you don't haveta worry about it in bed

....speakin' of...heading there myself

Working HH tomorrow....catch you all sometime...

Nite!

Nite Barb! Guess I better head there myself.

Nite everyone!

 

[t-and-a]

Hey Homies!
I've been trying to ketchup on here and been reading for an hour....you guys have been chatty!

The router and Xbox Live are working great now! The kids can't play on weeknights though, so no worries for me...I just need to keep up with my chores.....laundry, cooking, cleaning.....mom and wife stuff...

Tricia, I'm so glad to hear that Carol is doing well! I hope that Joshua is staying seizure free and that he will remain that way! I know that really threw you for a loop.

Barb, I saw your pics you posted of your ice skating trip, I really enjoyed them. Bubba looked like he really liked the cheese sticks!

Mac, I haven't got to meet any Dis'ers yet, but I may get to meet Barb in June this year. I would love to meet more! I want to do HHN with you and Jodie sometime... I think that would be a hoot! It may be a few years before we can do HHN, though....you know having a kids 10 and 13..... Wouldn't that be cool if we could do a TPing 101 class in Orlando...We could do Todd's house and then we could do Bev's house!

Hey all the rest of you homies! I hope you are having a good night!

 

[macraven]

Don't forget what starts tonight! I am Tivoing it so I can watch it later and FF thru the commercials. I can't wait!

oh i love that picture.
i watched it and looking forward to tonights episode now.

time to do a bucket list.
if you are unfamiliar with this, it is a "to do list" before you kick the bucket. sit down for a minute with pen and paper and think about what YOU wanna do before you die.

me?

take a surfing lesson. preferably on two feet that work.
ride a cable car around San Fransisco
work on a presidential campaign
stroll the hills of Ireland

i haven't thought of it but i know once i do, i'll have a list to share. i do want to learn another foreign language.

and i want to teach TPing 101 to the homies.

i'll come up with a serious list soon.
the last few weeks, i just have trouble thinking of what to fix for dinner....

[JawsCPA]

Mac - any reason why you posted not twice, but thrice!! Are you trying to increase your post count, so Bubba's mom can't catch you.

 

[Motherfletcher]

BM, I share your warped sense of humor! Question though- Todd is shocking while Jodie is shocking with approval?

I only lost 2 pounds yesterday? (Must have been the Cheetos) I guess you can only sandbag once in a bet like this?

I had to do my crosswords (at least number 2 down) this morning because I have to go to the doctor and it's the check up where he violates me. Last time I started moaning in pleasure so he would feel as uncomfortable as I do.
I hope he has a miracle drug for weight loss.

I don't think I'll leave Florida this year.

OU Homies I've met:
Flyfly Eclipse and parents
Jiffy
BarryHom
damo and son
Jlima and family
ROBERT and son
Slacking
DaddyDon
Bev
Notatourist
Alexandnessa and Metro Mike
Nightrider
MarkMichaels

Almost went to a DisMeet at MK but my kids talked me out of it.

 

[tlinus]

hmmm bucket list : may have to think of that for a bit.....but will get back to you all

I have not met anyone on these boards, but I also belong to a parents of October 2001 babies boards and have made some very good mommy friends. One came two years in a row and stayed with me for a few days all the way from Iowa.

I would love to have Jodie stalk ****err, ummmm**** meet up with us....don't know how much of the bean family she and MetroMike could take though - my kids may just annoy them too much I have to get cracking on my trip details and slide it in under the daddybean radar. I wish I knew for sure that the simpsons ride would be open - got to price some stuff out.

MFletch - you made me shoot coffee out my snout!!! Good Luck with Dr. Feelgood!!

For all of those who requested it....here is the niece that SIL (Jim's sis) and BIL had yesterday:

she is still unnamed. I think Jim and kbean are going up tonight to see her and, of course, take more pics

 

[damo]

Awwww. What a sweetie.

My bucket list is to see my grandchildren grow up. First I need to seem some born!!! (but not quite yet)

 

[keishashadow]

i see sunshine , too bad it's 20 degrees; think i'll sneak in a tan just to warm up

lori make the geeks pay!

Kfed - i swam in a barrier reef (actually a couple last trip); off cayman islands all i could do not to get sucked out such a strong current & undertow i was so tired & consider myself to be a strong swimmer.

tracie - what a beautiful baby, i'll babysit any day!

DM - live long & prosper don't write off deep space..'ya never know

jennifer - we were going to do the GC along with Vegas end of June until i read in my UG book of Vegas how hot it gets , i'm no fan of temps well in excess of 100 degrees even with dry heat.

when DH works 4-12 my post count raises dramatically, bet penny's does too since she' sorta non-ambulatory...the chase is on

GrandCanyon & most of the "big" western state parks is on that list of places to go that i keep in my mind...not enough paper in the world to write it all down...i want it ALL dream large
moot point with the $ so low, yet ashamed to say DH & I are in agreement that we don't want to slap a target on our backs & travel to Europe anytime soon

 

[RVGal]

Morning everyone.

I dropped Joshua off at school like normal, no walking him in today. He was cranky and didn't want to go. Sigh.

Remember that sore throat/fever thing I had when Carol was in the hospital? I got some sinus gunk along with it. Sore throat and fever are LONG gone, but the sinus gunk is still here and getting worse. I think I've got another sinus infection brewing. I never used to get sinus infections, now it seems that every time I get a runny nose it gets infected. What's up with that? I know. TMI. Moving on.

I got this nice warning in my email this morning

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN PEACHTREE CITY HAS ISSUED A WINTER STORM WATCH...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON. THE WINTER STORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THE NORTHEAST GEORGIA MOUNTAINS FROM BLUE RIDGE...ELLIJAY AND JASPER EASTWARD TO DAWSONVILLE... DAHLONEGA...BLAIRSVILLE...HIAWASSEE AND CLEVELAND.

THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO START BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON OR EARLY THIS EVENING AS A MIXTURE OF SNOW...SLEET AND RAIN. SNOW AND SLEET ACCUMULATIONS BETWEEN AN INCH AND TWO INCHES ARE POSSIBLE. AFTER MIDNIGHT THE PRECIPITATION IS LIKELY TO CHANGE TO A MIXTURE OF RAIN...SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN AND CONTINUE INTO THE MID MORNING HOURS BEFORE CHANGING TO ALL RAIN BY MIDDAY.

A WINTER STORM WATCH MEANS THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SNOW... SLEET...OR ICE ACCUMULATIONS THAT WILL IMPACT TRAVEL. CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS.

So, they were a day off, but it looks like it is coming. French toast, anyone?

I'm going to try to do some ketchup...

So happy to hear our boy has had another seizure free day. I know it had to be hard to leave him. What did you do, besides worry yourself sick, while he was at school?

Remember we are here for you, whatever you need.

I paced. I did laundry. I tried to find the floor in my living room, but Daniel had other ideas. I played on the CB. I'll probably be on the same routine today, but playing here instead.

I know you guys are here for me. It helps to know that. Even when I don't check in, I know you're here. That matters.

glad to hear that our Josh is doing ok

Happy to report another seizure free day! I've heard that the longer between seizures, the better the prognosis. I hope.

i went to my foot and ankle doc today. when i got up, i could not safely do the stairs in either direction.
badly sprained the formerly good ankle(opposite foot of the april broken toe) from yesterdays crash and burn in the roadway.
so , guess who got an air cast to use while NOT driving
AND met their insurance deductable for 08 by the middle of January????


yup, that would be me......

I'm so sorry Penny. Did your snowblower trip you up on purpose? You said it has been mumbling nasty things at you for awhile. I hope you are pain free soon.

Oh, and add Joshua to the list of people who have met their deductible for the year.

i changed the avatar.....
i miss my cheshire cat though.


whatcha think of the new one???????????

I like it. It makes me think of Soapbox Penny.

 

[yankeepenny]

the non ambulatory homie here.

start working on your list. the clock is ticking every moment of your life.


i think seeing the pyramids of Egypt would be cool. getting there, however, would be ugly. i would have to be in a coma.

i have a visitor tonight. bringing pizza. yea!

 

[RVGal]

anyone besides me not able to go to florida this year?

We haven't made vacation plans yet. Don't know if we'll have money to play with until the FOPs come back to the area and start spending some of their fixed income.

elmer...........

we are always here for you and for any one else that needs a shoulder.
i mean that..

sounds like the medicine is working. it's already built up to a level of doing it's job since he has been seizure free.
i think that med is also weight related. any changes of weight could increase the amount of dosage.
ask the doc about that when you see him next.

each day you will have less tension and worry while he is at school.
you might want the teacher to send you emails or notes home daily of her observations of joshua.........quietness, daydreaming, normal, outgoing as usual.....

Today is *somewhat* better. I'm not pacing. That's a step forward, right?

remind me again what is the CB board, is that the community thing? and what do they talk about? and should I stay on our street?

Somebody may have already answered this. I haven't read thru before my ketchup. Yes, that is the Community Board. They talk about EVERYTHING and I do mean EVERYTHING. Some of the threads turn ugly fast. Lots of people with opinions and free reign to express them. I read much more than I post over there. In fact, I can probably count the number of posts I've made. Some threads are hysterical, however, and the really funny ones tend to attract the Tag Fairy.

daffy duck is cool (duck season )

Wabbit Season

tricia - the DISboards are my fav. place to hide from the big, bad world . Sounds like your little man is hanging in there . Know of a few children in my DSs schools that "outgrew" the problem when they hit puberty.

That's what I was doing. Hiding from the real (big, bad) world. Reading about other people's weird stuff always takes your mind off your own troubles, right? That's why Soap Operas survive.

Three doctors now (two in the hospital, plus my regular doc) have told me that I have a 50/50 chance of Joshua outgrowing this by age 16. We'll know more once they can MRI his brain. That'll probably be a couple of months down the road.

http://disboards.com/showthread.php?p=22602101&posted=1#post22602101

tee-hee

who don't u recognize?

I posted and added the Penguins from Madagascar and threw in some where to find (and who she won't find) advice.

I'm thinking one of those people that needs a "Does anal-retentive have a hyphen?" shirt.

Still no word on Dad. Impression I got last night was along the lines of "we'll try to get him fixed up and make it not happen again", rather than "hopefully he'll make it through the night". But obviously I wasn't there so it's pretty second hand. I'm guessing my mom will call tonight, but think no news is good news. And no, Mac, I wasn't planning on heading out there. I wouldn't be much use! Of course if it becomes more serious, we could end up canceling, but for now we're planning on skiing.

Tricia - glad to hear things are on the upswing. I guess just take each day as it comes now. I thought yesterday's appointment was with the specialist - guess that was just wishful thinking, eh? Good luck and keep us in the loop!

Keep us posted on your dad. I hope this is a simple fix for him.

Every day without a phone call from school is a good day! We're probably looking at 2 to 3 months before we see a specialist. Long waiting list, but I'm told that it is much longer in other cities. Atlanta apparently has more Pediatric Neurologists than most areas. Birmingham, my cousin tells me, has a 6+ month waiting list. I guess I should be grateful?

You know, I actually block siggies, and I totally forgot that I have my Mitt button in there! Can't wait for Super Tuesday ... then maybe all this primary nonsense will be over!

Yeah, then the REAL nonsense begins.

I'll be SO sick of political commercials by November, I'll vote for anyone just to shut them up.

yes, i am afraid i have quite the blabbermouth C'mon Jan...gimmie a fight...you can do it! (luvs a 'project')

Hey, I'm catching up on posts here on the thread!

But in the fight for 10,000 posts, I will concede...

You wasn't causing trouble over there on the CB...were you?? Glad to hear the day went well and no problems.... have a glass of wine to relax..... the emotions will calm......

Who me? No, no trouble. No trouble at all.

As for the rest of you, we need to plan somewhere, sometime because I don't know how I'll ever run into you otherwise!

I haven't met anybody.

I pick.... Chattanooga. Everyone make your plans accordingly.

 

[macraven]

morning homies........


i am having difficulty getting on to post.
ever since the new upgrade system was installed on the dis, i have had my issues connecting.

last night i could not get on.
i kept getting an error message.
sometime in the morning hours i did get on and tried to post.

i sat there for over 45 minutes trying to get that baby to post and it wouldn't.
i ended up doing 2 cw puzzles on line waiting.

that is why i joined the 3 way club i guess w/ the triplet posting......

now to go back and ketcup on the daily news here.

 

[roseprincess]

Hi all-
Sorry, been MIA Been very busy yesterday.
Chrissy was sick so I had her stay home yest and take a sick day from school yest. She came home on monday from school very tired and shivering. She said she felt like that the last hour of school. Anyways, she had a fever and had a runny nose. By Monday night she was shivering real bad,. Kept giving her Motrin every 6 hrs. She was real tired on Tues morning, so had her stay home. She seemed to have broken her fever sometime on Tues morning. I gave her a bath and washed her sheets, etc. She was fine after that. I did have to drag Chrissy yest afternoon for Matthew's band practice(since band practice is at another school).
Matthew had his first band concert last night! He did great! I don't remember if I mentioned what he played before, but he plays the clarinet. I asked my mom at the last minute to watch Chrissy at home last night, so we didn't have to drag Chrissy to the concert last night. I did manage to pick up Burger King for dinner on our way home from band practice yest afternoon(need BK smilie here). I was pretty exhausted yest afternoon and last night.

Today, both kids are at school(Matthew has a cold,too, but not that bad).
Now I have a massive headache,woke up with it this morning w/ a slight sore throat.
I hope I don't get a phone call today to go pick up my kids.


I can't seem to catch- up, have over 10 pages to read


Tricia-glad Joshua is doing well
Sorry to hear you aren't doing well
Anytime you want to throw in some medical words, I'll see if I can dicypher them for you, that's fine

Lori- are you feeling any better? I know you were sick,too.


Marciemi- Sorry to hear about your dad. I do hope and pray he gets better

Tlinus- congrats on the new neice

Mac- Hi
Yes, I met Mac twice. The Red Robin one at Woodfield Mall was a one minute meet Mac and I had. The blue restaurant one(Culvers) was a longer meet.
Would love to meet everyone else sometime

Just want to say hi to everyone!


Not sure if I'll be back on here today. I need to still get in the shower and hope to get some rest before the kids get home from school.

 

[RVGal]

We're not sure what we are doing yet. Dear mother-in-law passed away in July and we may take DFIL with us on vacation. He had mentioned taking flying us to Vegas (VEGAS BABY!), and driving to Grand Canyon. So, if he wants to do this, than Florida is out. But, I'm not going to cry too hard, if I get to go to Vegas (even for just a little bit).

As for the Community Board. I often use this for a good laugh. I like to "lurk" (less likely to get in trouble), and seldom post. But boy, other people sure have alot of problems!

Brad & I did Vegas with a side trip to Hoover Dam, Zion Natl Park, and Grand Canyon. Fabulous.

And, that's what the CB is good for. Lurk and laugh at others.

Love your Tax Ticker!

Tricia don't you be getting banned. Don't know what we would do if you weren't here for a while.

Nope. Not me. I don't post anything "ban worthy". It's not worth the aggrivation.

we went to FL two years in a row, so this year salt lake( we need to narrow down an area to live in) and maybe next year Florida.

i wanna go to vegas.....and san fran actually......

I forgot you guys were planning to move to Utah. It's a good idea to spend time there before you move.

I've been to Vegas, but not San Fransico. I'd like to do some stuff in California eventually. I've only been through airports there. Wait, maybe one of the airports I've been through was SF? That wouldn't count tho... not really like a visit...

time to do a bucket list.
if you are unfamiliar with this, it is a "to do list" before you kick the bucket. sit down for a minute with pen and paper and think about what YOU wanna do before you die.

me?

take a surfing lesson. preferably on two feet that work.
ride a cable car around San Fransisco
work on a presidential campaign
stroll the hills of Ireland

I would like to go to Ireland too. One of the few places over the pond that I actively wish to see.

I'd like to make it back to Hawaii and see more of the islands (only been to Maui and Oahu)... and I'd love to go back to French Polynesia and spend more time on Moorea. Tahiti or Bora, Bora... not so much. Maybe Fiji too? Didn't make it to that island on our trip.

swim in the Great Barrier Reef
spend a night in the suite in Cinderella's castle
own a horse
visit Hawaii

Okay, add New Zealand and Australia to my short list of places outside the US I'd like to visit.

oh nooooo.....do we haveta

I don't think of mine as a Bucket List... just stuff I'd like to do. If I don't... meh... no biggie.

 

[marciemi]

Quick flyby before I'm late for work (is anybody noticing a trend here?)! Mom called late last night. Sounds good. The dialysis went well. Unfortunately, shortly afterwards they left him in his room. He decided he would try to use the bedpan himself (okay, I'm sorry, TMI!) and fell off the bed, not near the call button. Guess he had to yell for like a half hour before someone came and helped him. Brother who's a lawyer is not happy. Apparently dad now has a special "Falling Star" sign on his door, which in medical parlance at this hospital means "keep your eye on this guy and come immediately if you hear anything or his button rings!"

His numbers were all down yesterday, which is what they want, but for right now they don't know if it's because they cleaned everything out but when the kidneys have to function on their own they won't or if they solved the problem at least for now. Evidently today will tell. If the numbers stay fine, then he'll probably go home tomorrow. He ate some real food yesterday - first time in nearly a week. But if the numbers start to climb back up again, then they'll have to put in a permanent shunt (? - not sure of the term, maybe port?) so that he can get dialysis regularly. Hopefully we'll know a lot more tonight!

Tracie - she's adorable! Wow - she looks older than a day or two! My kids all looked like pathetic wrinkled prunes at that point! And lots more hair - guess that's what makes her look older! Lucky you - you can snuggle and love a baby but not have to get up with it!

Tricia - our forecast is also a winter storm warning, but for 6 inches of snow beginning tonight. Better not be a snow day because tomorrow (and today) are finals. DS12 takes 2 classes (math and science) at the high school. Apparently everyone in his science class (mostly DS14's classmates and friends) hate him because he's doing so well. Last test class average was a 57, he got a 100. Today after I picked him up after the final to drive him to the middle school he said "well, they still all hate me". Teacher graded the tests and once again he got the only 100. He can't understand how the other kids can find it hard - he was like "Mom, the questions were exactly the same as the study sheet he gave us. They even had the same NUMBERS!" Going to guess others didn't look at the study sheet!

Now really late! Catch you all later!

 

[macraven]

i am behind in the thread and so tired right now.


i'll just spin thru the daily updates then:

marcie, dad on the floor not a good thing, get a lawyer, oh you have one,falling star won't fall anymore now. roseee get well soon, hope the phone doesn't ring from the skool today, sick kids take a lot out of you. bubba's mom went shopping yesterday on her off day of work and didn't tell us what she bought us. i have enough black socks so she can take those back if they were for me. alison is ketchuping every third day, she's in training for the marathon party here when we celebrate our one year anniversary. damo likes babies, she looks forward to her grandchildren that aren't born yet, you can bet damo will be teaching those littles calculus before they enter kindergarten. tricia has betrayed us and gone to the other side playing on the community board. well that is okay, i have a thread over there too and some stuff is nice. penny is not lucky penny these days, her neighbor is a jerk and didn't help her when she sprawled. her doc says she will be miss limpy for a few weeks now. this time it is the foot/ankle and not the toe. woo. kfish has crabs and is a health teacher, what is wrong with this picture? it is because the future inlaws are crabby people. lori was a sickie but now she has her voice back since one of the homies saved the day and told her about honey tea. wendy would not take that tea as she has alli and alli says that is a no no. but if she snuck some of that in her fletcher and her would have a battle of the run to the toilet moment. jodie has a dentist that likes to yak and talk UO. how bad can she be then besides not doing a good bonding job on the toother. darkie will move to denver and want to move back to orlando after the first winter. todd is MIA,come back home todd we need to know how it's going for you. sharon is a kid again but next time we need pics of her snowboarding.


i think i left some out but will get back on track and make it right later.
came back to say how tacky i was to forget all those labor pains we went though the other day. beautiful baby we now have here. lets play pass the baby but don't let it be me that has the diaper duty. l think tracie is a hoot on what she says on the beans. notice i said hoot, not toot. bonnie is hiding in the bushes, come out and play toots, keishajanet wants to take a hammer to the new computer. i'll join her. does anyone ever catch the way janet phrases things and plays off of your words.?? i noticed that and its a hoot.

i'm off to curves if i can sneak in there today.

 

[loribell]

I had to do my crosswords (at least number 2 down) this morning because I have to go to the doctor and it's the check up where he violates me. Last time I started moaning in pleasure so he would feel as uncomfortable as I do.

Oh I bet that doctor is looking forward to seeing you today! Thanks for the laugh.

I remember Barry. What ever happened to him?

For all of those who requested it....here is the niece that SIL (Jim's sis) and BIL had yesterday:[/B]

she is still unnamed. I think Jim and kbean are going up tonight to see her and, of course, take more pics

She is a beautiful baby! Thanks for sharing.

i see sunshine , too bad it's 20 degrees; think i'll sneak in a tan just to warm up

jennifer - we were going to do the GC along with Vegas end of June until i read in my UG book of Vegas how hot it gets , i'm no fan of temps well in excess of 100 degrees even with dry heat.

It is very ugly and grey here today, got another storm coming in. Not sure what it is supposed to do though other than get very cold again.

So you are still going to Vegas aren't you? It is very hot there in the summer but you will be inside most of the time.

Morning everyone.

I dropped Joshua off at school like normal, no walking him in today. He was cranky and didn't want to go. Sigh.

Ally didn't want to go either today.

Remember that sore throat/fever thing I had when Carol was in the hospital? I got some sinus gunk along with it. Sore throat and fever are LONG gone, but the sinus gunk is still here and getting worse. I think I've got another sinus infection brewing. I never used to get sinus infections, now it seems that every time I get a runny nose it gets infected. What's up with that? I know. TMI. Moving on.

Hope you feel better soon.

I got this nice warning in my email this morning

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN PEACHTREE CITY HAS ISSUED A WINTER STORM WATCH...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON. THE WINTER STORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THE NORTHEAST GEORGIA MOUNTAINS FROM BLUE RIDGE...ELLIJAY AND JASPER EASTWARD TO DAWSONVILLE... DAHLONEGA...BLAIRSVILLE...HIAWASSEE AND CLEVELAND.

THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO START BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON OR EARLY THIS EVENING AS A MIXTURE OF SNOW...SLEET AND RAIN. SNOW AND SLEET ACCUMULATIONS BETWEEN AN INCH AND TWO INCHES ARE POSSIBLE. AFTER MIDNIGHT THE PRECIPITATION IS LIKELY TO CHANGE TO A MIXTURE OF RAIN...SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN AND CONTINUE INTO THE MID MORNING HOURS BEFORE CHANGING TO ALL RAIN BY MIDDAY.

A WINTER STORM WATCH MEANS THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SNOW... SLEET...OR ICE ACCUMULATIONS THAT WILL IMPACT TRAVEL. CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS.

That does not sound good. Hope they are wrong.

I paced. I did laundry. I tried to find the floor in my living room, but Daniel had other ideas. I played on the CB. I'll probably be on the same routine today, but playing here instead.

I know you guys are here for me. It helps to know that. Even when I don't check in, I know you're here. That matters.

Playing here is a much better idea. We are much nicer.

We haven't made vacation plans yet. Don't know if we'll have money to play with until the FOPs come back to the area and start spending some of their fixed income.

Hope you have lots of money to play with. You can come join us in July!

Three doctors now (two in the hospital, plus my regular doc) have told me that I have a 50/50 chance of Joshua outgrowing this by age 16. We'll know more once they can MRI his brain. That'll probably be a couple of months down the road. [/COLOR][/SIZE]

That is great news. I hope they are right. Actually I hope he never has another one.

I pick.... Chattanooga. Everyone make your plans accordingly. [/COLOR][/SIZE]

Chattanooga is very pretty and would be a nice place for a meet.

Hi all-
Sorry, been MIA Been very busy yesterday.
Chrissy was sick so I had her stay home yest and take a sick day from school yest. She came home on monday from school very tired and shivering. She said she felt like that the last hour of school. Anyways, she had a fever and had a runny nose. By Monday night she was shivering real bad,. Kept giving her Motrin every 6 hrs. She was real tired on Tues morning, so had her stay home. She seemed to have broken her fever sometime on Tues morning. I gave her a bath and washed her sheets, etc. She was fine after that. I did have to drag Chrissy yest afternoon for Matthew's band practice(since band practice is at another school).

Hope Chrissy is all better.

Matthew had his first band concert last night! He did great! I don't remember if I mentioned what he played before, but he plays the clarinet. I asked my mom at the last minute to watch Chrissy at home last night, so we didn't have to drag Chrissy to the concert last night. I did manage to pick up Burger King for dinner on our way home from band practice yest afternoon(need BK smilie here). I was pretty exhausted yest afternoon and last night.

Way to go Mathew!

Today, both kids are at school(Matthew has a cold,too, but not that bad).
Now I have a massive headache,woke up with it this morning w/ a slight sore throat.
I hope I don't get a phone call today to go pick up my kids.

I hope you feel better soon. Eat some chocolate for the headache.

Lori- are you feeling any better? I know you were sick,too.

I am feeling much better, still have problems with my voice first thing in the morning but other than that I am good.


Have a terrific day everyone!

Mac - You always do such a great job in your cliff notes! Enjoy your tiem at curves and get some rest.
