Gobble-gobble! Hmmm. I was thinking you could just swing the keyboard like a tennis racquet, but as long as it isn't wireless I suppose you could throw it and then reel in back in, so to speak.” 4:05:23 AM 11/27/08 “...and reel in an infuriated manager tangled up in the keyboard? I keep that for another day when I may need an adrenalin rush.” 4:24:18 AM 11/27/08 “Lazy bums. I've been up a couple of hours.” 4:37:23 AM 11/27/08 “Sure ---- just tie them up with the cord if you don't have any ducttape.” 4:51:20 AM 11/27/08 “I can be lucky if they don't tie me up with the cord or ducttape. :-)” 5:13:31 AM 11/27/08 “I did a little research a while back and straitjackets are kindof expensive ---- unless you really expect to get some regular use out of them.” 5:38:15 AM 11/27/08 “Dear me! I hope not.” 5:48:36 AM 11/27/08 “duct tape” 5:54:31 AM 11/27/08 “Lazy bums. I've been up a couple of hours.” Stovie 6:37:23 AM 11/27/08 I thought you liked to sleep in???

Or maybe out shopping.....” 5:22:07 AM 11/28/08 “I got up at 7, tip-toed around picking up from yesterday, took a quiet shower, tip toed around some more, letting the kid sleep in. Eventually I make my coffee real quiet like and tip toe past the kid's room to the office. Kid is sleeping in a big ball of down comforter and fleece blankets on the floor. I go closer to check, no kid at all! The kid creeps up to her room and giggles like mad. She has been hiding behind the rocking chair in our kitchen for the last 1/2 hour spying on me. I think I am going to have to start being careful about what I say or do with this one around.” 5:33:04 AM 11/28/08 “lol.....when ya have kids....you NEVER know when they are listening!!!...& they seem to hear soooo well!!! ..I am still full.... ..we had... turkey ( oven roasted) turkey (fried) ham dressing green bean cassarole sweet potatoes peas gravy 2 kinds of rolls macaroni salad fruit salad broccoli salad cherry pie coconut cream pie pumpkin pie pecan pie carrot cake uncommonly good dessert mountain momma's dessert ...I think that is about it... ...I will not eat the rest of the weekend...lol....I really want some more cherry pie.... ...we had a GREAT time...I REALLY missed MY kids.....I will see them @ Christmas..... ...hugs!!!” 5:55:12 AM 11/28/08 “Holy Thanksgiving!

G was out of the house before 5AM - Evie and I were still comfy in our beds. He didn't get the computer he wanted - they were sold out before 5:30. He came home, and we went out together at 9AM. Shopped at Toy R Us - waited in line TWO HOURS!!! Got some good deals, though. Got the tree up today, complete with baby gate around it. A few wrapped presents under it already, too. More Turkey Day festivities at the in-laws on Sunday. If I'm not fat already, I will be then.” 7:12:12 PM 11/28/08 “I am so happy that my daughter's sleep patterns have shifted to a 5 a.m. wake up now.

I77 northbound wasn't so bad, but I feel sorry for all the people stuck in the miles-long line of vehicles on SB 77 and on to EB I26. Yikes! I love my family but Geez Louise! It's a vacation of sorts dangit! I'm not redecorating your house for you!” 2:43:15 PM 11/30/08 “2 hour car ride home tonight when it should have been an hour....but we're home safe.

I just got love-attacked by a catten! This guy was so incredibly happy we came home yesterday. You'd never know he started out as a feral.” 4:39:59 AM 12/01/08 “mornin'! we just got a little snow, then rain, so it's all slushy today...last weeks crazy wind did more damage to my roof than I thought, so the money my mom gave me for x-mas will come in handy. weekends are never long enough, even when they are 4 days...” 8:39:24 AM 12/01/08 “...so quiet here!!!....no 4 yr old standing by my bed looking at me as I sleep @4am...and I don't have to cook supper....no one here to eat it..lol...and no waiting around while she plays for an hour as the water turns freezing cold ( how in the world do they do that???)...no toys in the living room...no stuffed animals tucked under a blanket on the couch sleeping.... ...day ONE of work....FOUR to go...woooo hoooo!!!...I may fly to Ohio to see my daughter & her family...will decide in a few days... ...we decided to have a "Make it or Bake it" Christmas...no spending money on things you don't need.... ...I'm watching "Chocolat"...yummmm..... hugs” 6:02:16 PM 12/01/08 “I miss snow!!!!!... ...coffees brewing...I slept in...I have a headache...was almost a migrane about 3am...better now....I think I'll live.... hugs” 3:03:09 AM 12/02/08 “Morning. I'm crabby. Didn't get any last night. ;) Birch broke his hand this weekend. Poor baby has a cast. And he won't let anyone sign it. And he can't remember to take his ibuprofin.” 4:52:49 AM 12/02/08 “Poor Birch! How did that happen?! Laurel woke us up at 2 am wanting the quarter I took away from during dinner, because she was making a racket with the darn thing. I didn't get back to sleep after that. I'm ready to kill this morning, plus a fatigue headache. Div, sounds like you have empty nest syndrome all over again. ;)” 4:57:20 AM 12/02/08 “mornin'!” 5:44:20 AM 12/02/08 “Good morning. Sounds like to a good excuse to me. Better luck tonight.” 7:45:50 AM 12/02/08 “ha, I missed that! LOL...” 7:50:07 AM 12/02/08 “He slipped in the slush on our deck and went @ss over teakettle down three steps to the flagstone patio.

Happy Humpday, ya weirdos. I'm getting a bit crabby m'self. Is there a "screw this, I'm going back to sleep" thread? (uh-oh. comma splice. not good.)” 4:39:40 AM 12/03/08 “Morning! What is wrong with a coma splice? I love the coma splice!” 4:51:24 AM 12/03/08 “I hate to start the day with a comma splice ---- It's just not a good omen, LOL” 5:04:54 AM 12/03/08 “Good morning, looks like a nice day and the sun is coming out. Deer season started on Monday so no hiking until that's over in about 10 days. I woke up with a headache and I hope it goes away soon.” 5:14:10 AM 12/03/08 Hugs. “Good morning. http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/run-on.htm: A RUN-ON SENTENCE (sometimes called a "fused sentence") has at least two parts, either one of which can stand by itself (in other words, two independent clauses), but the two parts have been smooshed together instead of being properly connected.

I made fried egg sandwiches for Laurel and I, and burned the heck out of my right index finger. I have a little pan just for frying eggs, and I mean little. My hand slid off the silicone handle cover and up against the side of the pan while trying to flip the egg. I now have the start of a blister coming up on the side of my knuckle. Hopefully it'll fade quickly. I hope everyone has a much better morning than me!” 3:54:54 AM 12/04/08 “OUCH! Sorry about the burn but I'm sure Laurel enjoyed her sandwich. 'Got Aloe'? Divinity ...sounds I can hear the excitment in your voice...I can't wait to see my oldest! It is hard adjusting to them not living near by! I have my 90 day review today....aaarrgh guess they will keep me in the admin positin maybe they will send me out on a site and let me be a flagger!!! Although I would much rather be an equipment operator! HUGS to all....!” 4:20:07 AM 12/04/08 “Morning! Another beautiful grey day in MI! Snow for the next five days. No guesses at accumulation on weather news yet. I'm hoping for a good 3 inches at least. Gotta cover up all the dead stuff and make pretty for Christmas. Happy Thursday everyone.” 5:07:06 AM 12/04/08 Jump to Page << prev
