Oh yay!!! Survivor Talk!! The principal guy seemed like a nice fellow,"I think we had 8 guys who 'believed in themselves' a little TOO much." Bwahahahahahaaaahaaa!!!! Sherry Bonnie michele Nancy where are you girl...we're starting the Survivor conga line!

Can't wait for PICS jennifer!

I couldn't help but remember Kimmy this morning... my stylist suggested I add a round brush to my hair arsenal. I haven't done this sort of styling/drying since junior high...round brush in one hand, dryer in the other ...and I'm out of hands!!! How do people do this?! I have no hands left to separate a section and position it on the brush WHILE drying. Well, I have never lost so much hair in a 15 minute time frame. Harrowing.

Happy Valentine's Day! The Valentine's gifts have been hanging around the apartment, wrapped and taunting, the past few days.(They're usually cute little fun things, no biggie but presents are always nice.) Later.

Hi ya ya's!

Just got back a little bit ago from GFS & Sam's Club.
Got home and the phone rings, and it is Labor Relations from DH's job. They told him to come to work today!!
Thank God. I am sooo relieved. We were both totally stressed over all this. DH got his Union president and some other "big wigs" to fight for him, and man, they did it!! So, he only missed 6 hours of work yesterday, and won't be off for 2 weeks. Thank you all for the prayers, as well.

Jeannie, I'll join the Survivor Conga line!

Waah!!! I don't know which is cutest...the one with Paige kissing Minnie or her slapping her forehead (shoot I think I am permanently confused about which one is the elder...Paige is 4 right? Emily...9? Or vice versa?)...awww, but the mother and daughters picture is toooo pretty! You all look so sweet and happy together.

 

[jldriscoll]

Thanks Jeannie! Emily is almost 5 and PAige is 8

I didn't even have the AGES right... I 'm like one of those bad aunties who gets all the ages wrong and thinks the 16 year old is permanently 6 years old and gets her Barbie dolls for her High School graduation.

Emily-5 Paige-8, Emily 5 Paige 8....

 

[dizneenut]

Cute pics, Jennifer! Can't wait to see more.

ROFL, Jeannie! I won't even ask you to name my boys & their ages!

 

[jldriscoll]

Awww...Jeannie...if it makes you feel better...Emily will be 4 for 3 more weeks! You got that right! And I call them by the wrong name ALL the time!!!!

 

[CrazyBoutDisney]

Oh, Jennifer, those pix are ADORABLE!!!!! Emily kissing Minnie's nose is just the greatest! Good to finally see that pretty Mom in a pic, too!

Sherry, I am SOOOOOOO glad to hear the news! Three cheers for the Union, et al!!

Jeannie, you haven't learned to hold the brush with your toes yet??

 

[newmousecateer]

Great pictures Jennifer! Yes! We want to see many, many, many of them. I just notice your siggy pic too. Cute

Auntie Jeannie, you don't have to remember my age...in fact....I'll pay you to forget it.

Very good news Sherry

"thank goodness" is right, Beth. Ain't no way I'm going to let her sit at MY table buck nekked, no matter what brother/uncle says.

Well, I have never lost so much hair in a 15 minute time frame.

 

[lilboo]

Sherry, I'm baaaaad...I must've missed the problems with DH but I'm glad it's worked out! And ummm, Jordan....is your eldest at 13 and then there's the cutie with the beautiful eyes who's 9 and is named....oooh...I've had a bad day with a roller brush...ask me another day!!!

Oh, interesting note about the brush....DUUUUUUH. Some of the SCUNCI brand brushes can be adjusted to either a RIGHT-HANDED grip or a LEFT-HANDED grip...well, they highlight it as a special feature of the CIRCULAR ROLLER BRUSH...circular!!!!

Remind me to ask you to show me how later...I thought those high-kicks at the parade were unusually high!!! Now I know the secret to keeping limber....or could there be ANOTHER REASON...

Huh?? Pam normally dines nekkid? Why else would she pointedly tell us that she would be clothed? Ooh, I'm not willing to risk it...I'll pass on dinner...not that I was invited...

Afternoon YaYa's!

The meeting with the teacher went okay. Ryan is doing incredibly well with his acedemics (sp)....okay so mom cant spell....but is doing rather poorly socially. He is taking a lot of flack from the other students because of a bad habit he has that involves his nose. We are working with the teacher to try and curb this behavior. Right now he is at a desk removed from the main desks and actually he prefers this as he has no distractions and can work in peace and quiet, I was rather upset when I found he was still there after a week but if he likes it there I'm not going to try to change things now. We got a bit of shocking news at the conference also. Seems my little munchkin is reading at a NINTH GRADE FIFTH MONTH level and he is only in third grade! I knew he was up there but didnt realize just how high. I am really proud of him. We are going to try positive reinforcement for the nose thing and also for getting work turned in. He does the work but forgets sometimes to turn it in. He will have to bring home his agenda book every night and the teacher will mark either a check for good or a sad face for problems. He will get extra time on his gameboy or playstation for remembering to bring it home and for all the check marks that he gets. No extra for a sad face. We are hoping positive reinforcement will work where negative has not.

Im sure all our moms are smiling down on us and sending pixie dust.

Jeannie now you know why I love my long curly hair. NO brushes and no blowdryers hehehehehehehehehheehe.

Nancy something went in the mail for you today.

Marilyn I got a package from you today and all I can say is WOW and THANK YOU!!!!! Not only did Marilyn send me the Richard Simmons tape but also the Food Mover that goes along with the tape. It will be so much easier for me to keep track of everything now. Thank you sooooooooooooo much Marilyn you are TOOOOOOOOOO SWEET!!!!

Dh won and now LOST a 50.00 gift certificate. He cant find it anywhere arrrrrrrrrrrgh!!! It was for Circuit City and would have gone for a new TV for the living room.

Jennifer what CUTE pictures thank you for sharing them!!! Its so nice to see one of mom too!!!

Well now that I have written a novel on the laptop I better post this before I hit something and end up deleting it ROFL

Jen,
Those are fantastic photos - your girls are so cute and look so much like their Mom!

The principal guy seemed like a nice fellow,"I think we had 8 guys who 'believed in themselves' a little TOO much."

Jeannie,
I honestly thought the principal was the hottest one out of all of those guys! Those young lazy bucks with their eight-ball did nothing for me!

Ummmm...... didn't I even tell all of you that DH and I live in a nudist colony?

Karen,
Great news about DS - and hey, don't we all enjoy a nice nose picking every once in awhile? Actually - you might want to check and see if he has dry sinuses - that could be a reason why he's doing that!

Jeannie,
So - what are the genders of my kids and how old are they? (P.S. we left the kids to you, Aunt Jeannie, in our will!)

 

[CourtasanSatine]

BF should be here anytime now So I'll be back tonight

 

[Pam]

Hope you have a wonderfully romantic evening, Satine!!
