[Rella Bella]

Oh, YAY! R.B. is staying!! I don't know why I'm still awake. My bedtime is normally around 10:00.

This is late for you Bebe!!
Are you back to 100%??
Maybe your body's not used to feeling good??

Hey, what else is new with you???

No way!! You were just starting to feel better!

Other stuff....DD9 is devastated because her class is being reduced in size and she is one of the kids who have to leave and go to the new class. Of all my kids, she is the one who has adjusted to the move the best. She had 2 new best friends who like dogs as much as her. Now she's sad cause neither of them will be in her class.

 

[Bbgrizzle]

I know!!! Can't a girl just feel good for a while? Sheesh!!

What about you? Any illness going around your house?

Oh that's so hard on kids! Poor little sweetling! Well hopefully she'll still see them at recess. Moving is hard for everyone, but it's extra hard for some kids who dont' make friends as easily.

 

[Bbgrizzle]

What's going on with your clan?

 

[Rella Bella]

No... I'm crossing everything, praying and knocking on wood all at the same time!!

 

[Rella Bella]

What's going on with your clan?

Clan?? Family??

Just the usual financial frustration and keeping up with the boy!

*Warning* my computer is acting dumb, so if I suddenly stop posting, it's not cause I'm rude, it's cause I got kicked off!

So remind me whether you work or not. I never can recall.

 

[Rella Bella]

I guess I didn't realize this was your first school year in Virginia. You're really still in the adjustment phase aren't you...

Dont' you HATE when you're in a new place and you need to go get something and in your old town you could just run out and be back in half and hour but because you dont' know where to find stuff or even what all the stores really are it turns into an all day excursion??? I hated that part of moving to a new part of the country.

 

[Rella Bella]

Right now I work from home... internet stuff, some writing & I sell Shaklee... all part-time. I don't work as hard at any of them as I should... I just find myself DISing....

Oh I'll just get on for a minute... and before I know it an hour is gone.

My word, yes!! I don't know where to find a lot of stuff. Also, in Vegas, the grocery stores and gas stations were all 24-hours. Here that is not the case, and it's not always convenient!

So you moved from where to MO?

Montana... my little home town where I drug my DH and tried to transplant him. By the time we left I was as ready to go as he was! The economy just stinks up there! You have to come with your own money to enjoy living there... plus the winter is way to long and cold!!

 

[Cool-Beans]

Last week, had the car in to have tires checked as I kept hearing a noise. The guys put it up on the up-thing and checked the tires, tie rods, bunch of crap, and said there was nothing wrong. Told them I was not imagining the noise, but they insisted it was fine. So, I left, but kept wondering when whatever it was would break.

Today, I went for an oil change, like I've done every 3,000 miles for the last however many years. But, today the guys say, "Ma'am, could you come over and see this please?"

Me: I don't need to see it, I don't know anything about cars and won't know the difference. Please just tell me how much it will cost.

Guys: Please get out and come see this. You'll know what this is.

Me (getting out of car): OK, but I'm not going to know anything.

So, I walk over and look into where the guy is pointing (turns out is was the inside of the thingy that holds the "Air Filter.") and I look in to see...ACORNS! About 30 of them.

Some critter has been crawling into the car when I leave it outisde and storing acorns in it. It has also been chewing or clawing up and ripping to shreads my Air Filter. DH said they like warm cars, but will stop now that their supply has been disturbed.

I'm pleased that the source of my mystery noise has been discovered, but feel a little guilty...some poor little squirrel or chipmunk is going to think it has its winter food stored up and will now starve in the bitter cold of winter because I've callously depleted its supply.

Yikes, I'll bet. But it's really pretty there, isn't it? We would always go up to a ranch up near Jackson Hole, WY, that was owned by the company my dad works for. It was sooo pretty up there and I was always told that if I thought htat was pretty,I should see Montana!

 

[Cool-Beans]

Do you guys know Cool-Beans? I'm begging her to chat with us too. She's a cool chick. Maybe too cool for us.....

Very happy to have nice things said about me.

But also very peeved. I am NOT a Cool "Chick." This smacks of being called a Chick Pea, yet again, which I am not. Not a garbanzo, but a Cool BEAN!!!

 

[Rella Bella]

So Bonnie dear...

All my friends are there??? **sniff** But not me??
