Me and the kids did the dentist thing yesterday, said not to brush last night, to wiat 'til this morning ....... when we finally "get up"! Our nine-day old kittens eyes are about fully opened. Odd how they begin the opening process from the nose and slowly over a couple of days open up toward the outsides. The morning she had her kittens we all gathered around, football huddle style, and watched in amazement! She had 4.” 4:39:41 AM 6/23/10 “Good Morning!!!...a nice cool morning....so refreshing!!!! ...today is go to work with your daughter da...not really...but I am.... ...3:00 accupuncture appt....never been before....I'm interested....maybe she can help my back and leg pain!!! ...speaking of cats....mt daughter had an outdoor female get hit by a car...it had 3 kittens...they were being weaned.....her outdoor male cat named "Scratches" was seen picking up a kitten and setting it in front of the food bowl!!!...a good daddy!!!! ...smiley...sometimes I do that....too much to do on my mind...it helps me to write it down, then I am relieved to know I don't have to remember everything and I can relax! ...ya'll have a GREAT day!!!!!!” 4:41:14 AM 6/23/10 “Good Morning!!!... ...my daughter found out she is having a BOY!!!...wooo hooo!!!!!!!...she even has pics and a video of the ultrasound!!!!....wooo hooo!!!!!!!! ...a nice morning!....sorta cool...yesterday was HOT...I thought I was in the south again!!!!..it was to rain last eve...I guess it passed us by or just dissapated.... ...went to an accupuncturist yesterday....that was cool....very relaxing.....invigorating......she said NO MORE POP.....crap.....but she did suggest a pop that uses stivia if I have to have one.... ...she said I should feed myself like I would feed someone I really loved.... ...anyways...it was great... ...I'm packing today for a camping trip to West VA...I have never been there....I hear it is beautiful.....maybe my back will allow me to do some day hiking......woooohoooo!!!!! ...ya'll have a GREAT day!!!!!” 4:22:24 AM 6/24/10 “Good advice on the nutrition, divinity. We should all follow that advice. We have been following the South Beach Diet, and have really changed how and what we eat. We now often serve 2 veggies at dinner, and find ourselves looking for the veggies when we're out to eat. E's still sleeping (what a girl!). I guess I'm off for a quick run.” 4:49:08 AM 6/24/10 “Oh, and its our anniversary today. 4 years. We both forgot. We've got Jamaica on our minds!” 6:39:50 AM 6/24/10 “Great Morning, first time in my life I can remember someone waking ME up with coffee.” 6:50:39 AM 6/24/10 “...oooo....sounds wonderful Smiley!!! ...oooo...sounds wonderful XL :) last edited: 6/24/10 7:01:36 AM” 7:01:02 AM 6/24/10 “Really Div, first time in my life my alarm goes off.....I hit snooze then a minute later I smelled coffee...” 7:03:45 AM 6/24/10 “lol...the first time EVER???” 7:10:42 AM 6/24/10 “automatic maker...or a girl???...do tell!!!” 7:11:16 AM 6/24/10 “Money and good health are two things that one can not rely on. They are gone in the blink of an eye.” 9:15:53 AM 6/28/10 “XL....you never answered my question!!!...but you can keep it private..I'll undertand...” 1:37:24 PM 6/28/10 “I started working from home this morning. I'm sitting in shorts and a t-shirt in front of the open slider, watching two red-tailed hawks hang perfectly still, suspended by the wind about thirty feet over the hill behind my house. There's a nice cool breeze blowing, and a puppy snoring quietly on my lap. Can it be that, short of backcountry ranger, I've got the best job ever?” 1:45:56 PM 6/28/10 “YOU SUCK!!!.... ok...not really.....sounds awesome!!!” 2:06:20 PM 6/28/10 “I think you do Pepsis. I really miss working from home.” 6:38:14 PM 6/28/10 “Yay, today should be the last of the 90's temperatures for a week or so! I got to sleep in today. That was really nice, rather than the 5 am crawl. 7 am is a luxury. Have a great day everyone!” 5:38:34 AM 6/29/10 “automatic maker...or a girl???...do tell!!!” divinity ...automatic girl?!? :-)” 5:53:18 AM 6/29/10 “Yesterday I thought my car was dead and started looking for a replacement on craigslist. Turned out I had a bad radiator cap (!?) Glad I'm not buying a new car. I can save my money for an automatic girl.” 6:24:28 AM 6/29/10 “wooo hooo Toe!!!!!! a nice 70 something here in Ohio....nice!!! just finished helping the "tween" with fractions...I just don't think the public schools teach enough of the basics....grrrrrr...” 8:40:02 AM 6/29/10 “http://www.boingboing.net/2010/06/29/history-of-the-campi.html Cool article about the history of the camp stove.” 10:14:14 AM 6/29/10 “Good Morning....a very cool night last night...a 2 blanket night!!!but I love sleeping in the cold tho....so it was great..... hope everyone has a GREAT day!!!!” 8:28:16 AM 7/01/10 “Div are y'all still in school?” 10:11:49 AM 7/01/10 “Alabama schools usually get out a little before Memorial Day.” 10:19:19 AM 7/01/10 “University of Mobile got out the first week of May :) ...I have the summer off...I return to work Aug 18th...woooo hooo....altho I am extremely poor...lol....but I love the time off to spend with those I love!” 12:27:43 PM 7/01/10 “Good Morning!!!.....50 degrees here...brrrr.....but will be in the 90's by this weekend!!!!...someone fix me another cup of coffee...please????” 4:29:03 AM 7/02/10 “...am I the only one up??” 4:29:29 AM 7/02/10 “nope.” 4:41:22 AM 7/02/10 “I've been up for a while, just not posting yet. It's 65 outside and I'm enjoying the hell out of it.” 5:28:09 AM 7/02/10 “I love the cool mornings. Usually about 60 here when I first go out around 6. Then around 3 in the afternoon, it's about 90.” 5:53:24 AM 7/02/10 “Good Morning. :) It's cool & rainy here today. I actually love these days but would prefer to be home, curled up in bed and snuggling with my little ones. At least I have hot coffee...and apparently the coffee pot to myself because nobody else is here yet. LOL Happy Friday - Happy 4th!” 7:12:15 AM 7/02/10 “BEAUTIFUL DAY....Great weekend, gonna relax and take it easy. Oh and having fun this weekend with some nieces and nephews of a friend. We cooked up some good vittles last night. Tonight it is fireworks then tomorrow probably take the kiddies on a day hike. last edited: 7/02/10 7:43:35 AM” 7:41:13 AM 7/02/10 “Good Morning!!!...another lovely day!!!.....we are going to Alum State Park today to sit on the beach and go tubing in my nephews boat!...and to spend the day with one of my bestest friends!! ..last night went to the fire works here in Mt.Vernon....they were pretty darn good!!!....and First Friday downtown...all the stores ar open late...they have a car show.....and a band and food...nice....I enjoyed listening to the band and people watching....” 4:14:00 AM 7/03/10 “Mornin' everyone (afternoon now, but we slept in). Today is our little man's 8th birthday, going tubing in Deep Creek in the Smokies for his b-day. We'll do the cake and festivities next week when the wife's off.” 8:50:35 AM 7/03/10 “Evening. We're home from our trip to Jamaica - had a wonderful time. We were supposed to be home yesterday, but weather in Ft. Lauderdale diverted us to Nassau, Bahamas to refuel, then back to Ft. Lauderdale. By that time, we had missed our flight to Detroit. They wouldn't pay for a hotel room, but couldn't get us on a flight until today. So, a late night meal at Denny's and 4 hours of sleep later, we got on the plane this morning and made it home. I highly recommend Sandals resorts - it was our second trip to a Sandals (one in St. Lucia and this one in Jamaica) and we LOVED every minute of it. It'll be an adjustment back to reality after a week of a patisserie, 7 restaurants, 2 pool bars, and plenty of rum. What did I miss??” 5:39:57 PM 7/03/10 “Morning everyone. We actually tied the record low this morning, a whopping 55 degrees. Boy, that felt good after nearly 3 weeks of 90 or higher.” 6:49:10 AM 7/04/10 “Morning. Hot and humid here today - we should be used to it after Jamaica, but I'm sure we'll just hang out in the AC today like the wusses we are. :) Its been a great start to my birthday today - Evie slept in until 9AM and greeted us by saying she peed on the potty and got her own pull up on this morning. She really did it all by herself - I'm such a proud mamma! Nothing too exciting on the agenda today. More laundry, grocery shopping, and just hanging out. :) Have a good day!” 6:15:42 AM 7/05/10 “82° in the house already....and that's w/ the a/c on! Gonna be another smokin hot day today. Kid #1 is tye-dying at summer camp this morning. Kid #2 is on the move! Rolled up the rugs yesterday so I can sweep and mop daily. The kid is dragging herself all over and spends waaaay too much time licking the floor. Somehow in my mind licking the flooring is better than licking the area rugs, lol. 14 years married to Birch today! <3” 4:39:08 AM 7/06/10 “Congratulations SASS & Birch!!!!!! ...good Morning!!!!....Sass is right...another hot one!!!....92 degrees here today.....Hotter here than in Mobile today!!!... ...too hot to do anything outside!!!...except water related ...had a dream last night I went Kayaking at Sipsey....sigh.... Hope everyone has a GREAT day!!!!” 5:08:54 AM 7/06/10 “57 here, working on a high of 62. Good thing - this $400000 house doesn't have air conditioning. I'll prolly never get used to California, and I really hope I don't. Kids are gone for the summer, and maybe forever. Hope they call. Great to see you guys this morning!” 5:13:09 AM 7/06/10 “Happy Anniversary, Birch and Sass! Hot here, and not much on the agenda. I should clean out a closet or something. Everyone is still sleeping in my house. I love it! Enjoy the day.” 5:38:21 AM 7/06/10 “Happy Anniversary, Sass and Birch!” 5:49:08 AM 7/06/10 “thanks all!” 6:01:56 AM 7/06/10 “Good Morning!!!...another HOT day today!...heading to Columbus to visit family and friends!!!... ...ya'll stay cool!!!” 3:47:26 AM 7/07/10 “Supposed to be 98 today, bleah. Last night around 7 there was an ice cream truck up the road, playing Christmas music. It was quite popular.” 5:06:33 AM 7/07/10 “I am dying here...wish I was at work! Actually I would go in, but for the fact that I have the kids. I HATE THE HEAT!!! finally broke down and bought an air conditioner so I could do more that just sit and swelter in front of a fan...” 9:11:54 AM 7/07/10 “Smart move, Twig. It's 93 here right now, the pond temp is 84...guess whose going swimming in a few minutes? Too bad Laurel's still at camp grandma, picking up more bad behavior. She loves swimming with the koi” 9:30:03 AM 7/07/10 “Got two for $40. I'm sure I'll hate my electric bill, with those plus the fans in the chicken coop. Called my dad's brother and sister today. I don't think he'll be coming home. I go back and forth on thinking he'll stay in the boarding home after rehab or not make it that long...it changes every day...” 11:10:20 AM 7/07/10 “swimming with the koi sounds fun - do they nibble off your dead skin? :)” 11:10:51 AM 7/07/10 Jump to Page << prev
