I've finally learned that what other folks think of me is none of my damn business (I do have to re-learn that occasionally). and sometimes I have to remember not to CARE what others think of me........ Morning everyone!!!...a sunny day here......and some hot steamy cinnamon tea....with some of SS's honey....it is wonderful.....” 8:26:32 AM 3/11/04 “I love daffodils too!!!...I named my kayak "Buttercup"” 8:32:18 AM 3/11/04 HAPPY FRIDAY! “Don't tell me I'm thefirst one up? The big brown truck should come today, it's payday and I get to work dayshift (that makes an extra long weekend). Have a good one you nutsy TTers.” 4:54:10 AM 3/12/04 Good morning. “Going to 74ºF. today in Melbourne, Florida. I can take it!” 4:57:09 AM 3/12/04 “Hey, did yall notice that its FRIDAY!!!!!” 5:17:42 AM 3/12/04 “tsss...what ya think? of course we did!! Anyway, morning!!” 6:06:03 AM 3/12/04 I'M FREEEEE “Today I drive my poor 17 year old cat, Dr. Bob, over to the east coast of Wisconsin to live with my daughter. I will be unencumbered by neither woman, child nor beast for the first time since 1971. Now, if I go hiking somewhere and really like it, I can just stay for a few more days. The coffee is extra good this morning. Today's class is Yoga.” 6:13:08 AM 3/12/04 Hey, where's Nowslimmer “He's usually the first to post. Divinity, I'd suggest looking under your bed or checking your closet. He may be smoother than anyone expected.” 6:57:42 AM 3/12/04 “Snake Eyes, I think you need another cup of coffee... "Going to 74ºF. today in Melbourne, Florida. I can take it!" nowslimmer 04:57:09 AM 03/12/04” 7:11:23 AM 3/12/04 “Oh....and good morning. It's right around the freezing mark and we are expecting an inch or two of snow and the temps to drop. It was 50 degrees yesterday afternoon. Happy Friday!” 7:18:04 AM 3/12/04 “The coffee tastes good again this morning, so hopefully thats a sign theres no more allergy induced migraine. It's friday, and redeye early tomorrow my sweet babboo is leaving for the Smokies for a week, without me. That sucks, I wanna go too! Dang lack of money!” 7:18:38 AM 3/12/04 “Ok...Ok..I'm up....stop yelling!!!! WoooooHoooo...it's Friday!!!!!!” 7:21:58 AM 3/12/04 “I'm up and have called in sick for he first part of my day shift. Iw oudl seems as though my body can not put up with the 12-14 days like it used too. I don't know if it's because, after a FANTASIC meeting (read that tongue in cheek) on Tuesday, my heart isn't in my job anymore. Little tough to get motivated nowadays. My kids at school are feeling bad about me leaving and I feel bad for them. It pains me to see them effected this way. At any rate, I'll be hangin' out here pretty much all day, until I HAVE to go to work later. My favorite clienet is in my place for the next week and a half or so. There great to work with! Have fun on this brisk morning!” 7:25:16 AM 3/12/04 “I got all of about 3 hrs of sleep last night. My stress level is way too high, and something's gotta give. I'm thinking about not taking the engineering exam again, perhaps after 3 tries the universe is truly trying to tell me something. Lately the only thing I've done outside of work is study. I've not cooked dinner, not cleaned my house, its just been really stressful and the test is still a month away. :(” 7:31:37 AM 3/12/04 “mmmmmmm....some hot steamy cinnamon tea.......to get me started!!!” 7:33:22 AM 3/12/04 “Good morning all. It just started snowing about 5 minutes ago and now visibility is only about 50'.” 7:35:27 AM 3/12/04 “divinity...I bought me almond tea. ever tried it? I think it's my favorite now. It's just too good!!! Smiley...hang in there. Don't give up on your engineering exam. After it's all over you'll feel great. You tried 3 times, that would all be for nothing! You can't do that! weather: extra nice. Sunny and a high of 78 degrees” 7:37:06 AM 3/12/04 “Smiley....hugs.....try some meditation.....long deep breathing........ if you want to get this degree....then keep trying darlin.......I am sorry you feel so down......... :(” 7:38:01 AM 3/12/04 “Hang in there smiley gal, take a hike by yourself (after leaving proper itinerary and all other such responsible precautions) and clear your mind - the answer will come as the sun sets over the ridge line across the valley.” 7:40:04 AM 3/12/04 “Morning Gem.......not tried the almond....I did try the carmel.....mmmm..yummy with milk & sugar........ It was so good seeing ya last weekend!!!...you are still as cute as ever!!! I MISS SNOW!!!!!!!” 7:41:14 AM 3/12/04 “Cool, lumberzac. I think the snow you're seeing now is headed our way a little later. Last night's weather forecast said we'd see a little light snow in the early AM, but that didn't happen.” 7:44:15 AM 3/12/04 “Good morning, Good morning. Hey Smiley Girl, if you stopped cooking dinner and stopped cleaning house, I suspect you are turning into a man. Watch it now.” 7:49:43 AM 3/12/04 Oh, so there you are “So, who was that in the closet? BTW, Smiley Girl, if I have learned anything in life (and there may be compelling evidence to suggest I have not), it's to never give up on myself. Send yourself to time out, take a deep breath, go on a therapeutic drunk (not a recommendation). Just don't you give up on you. You are your own best friend. One of my favorite sayings is "those who endure have the right to know." So, keep on enduring. Enough of that, now back to being obnoxious.” 7:58:10 AM 3/12/04 “Strong coffee, lead in my pencil and I'm ready to go!” 8:04:01 AM 3/12/04 “sheesh..... can't a girl get any rest??? I went back to bed & all I hear is this divorce talk........” 10:06:42 AM 3/12/04 “Stopped snowing and it's all ready melting.” 10:09:01 AM 3/12/04 get up! “Good morning, folks. It's another beautiful weekend here in Florida. In Melbourne the forecast is for 76°F. today and by Monday it will be in the 80's again. Everyone have a great weekend.” 3:47:38 AM 3/13/04 “Morning Nowslimmer.......I got up at 3am :0” 3:59:41 AM 3/13/04 “and now off to work I go!!!! have a GREAT day!!!! going to make some money for NEW HIKING BOOTS!!!! wooo hoooooo” 4:25:04 AM 3/13/04 “WORK CAN SUCK MY.....oh wait this isnt the mean thread... Goodmorning all. It's off to work for me too.” 4:26:36 AM 3/13/04 “Good Morning, Good Morning, Mokena, Illinois temperature high today, 46. Hey Nowslimmer, are you going to post your Florida temperature highs this summer? Oh, I forgot. Your computer won't work when the temperature goes into triple digets. Well, you got us now. But just wait. Ha Ha Ha.” 5:35:55 AM 3/13/04 “Good morning, prosecutor. Ha, ha, yourself! I'll be in GSMNP, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, AND Chicago before summer! But really, I'm a man of all seasons. Last December I shoveled snow in Minnesota. I've even been on top of Mt. le Conte(GSMNP) on a Christmas Day. I've lived north in MN, WI, IL as well as south in the Rep. of Panama and Puerto Rico, and other places. Homes have been in PA and MD to CA with some OK and TX to boot. (It's like I've been on the lam. Your the first prosecutor to catch up with me!) I can be comfortable almost anywhere. Florida is sort of inbetween(Panama and Minnesota).” 6:08:39 AM 3/13/04 “I've been up since 4:30, getting HPM and all his scouts on their way. We had 2 delays this morning. 1 scout forgot his boots and his mother had to drive home for them, and one scout was very late arriving at the meeting point. But away they go. I'm trying to decide if I want to stay awake or catch a little more sleep. I'm very muzzy right now. I think sleep wins.” 6:19:00 AM 3/13/04 “Time for the three basic food groups! (caffeine, cocoa & refined sugar)” 6:25:11 AM 3/13/04 “You are a smart man Nowslimmer. How did you get that way?” 6:27:53 AM 3/13/04 “Probably had something to do with being born and raised in "Chicago!" "Street-wise," maybe.” 6:35:40 AM 3/13/04 “Good morning all. It'll be a chilly start for the Sat morning long run here in IL, but the sun in definintely shining.” 6:48:23 AM 3/13/04 “It's cold here in D-Town. Ground looks like it's starting to freeze again. What day is it!?!” 7:11:43 AM 3/13/04 “Good morning. My wife is working later today and I have to take the kids to the dentist.” 7:15:43 AM 3/13/04 “Good Morning. Didn't sleep for crap last night, up early today to make breakfast for #1 child who is heading back to school today. Stormy here in the desert, clouds, wind, some rain -- awesome! After breakfast I'm off to work for the day, will spend the day in a truck looking at properties for a land deal. Work, work, work. Hiking to Reavis Falls in the Superstitions tomorrow.” 7:44:06 AM 3/13/04 “Reavis Falls looks interesting.” 8:28:31 AM 3/13/04 5:01:06 AM 3/14/04 “Good morning Nowslimmer.” 5:19:42 AM 3/14/04 “Good morning, prosecutor. Hope you don't get wet this morning or lose your hat as Chicago lives up to it's reputation today.” 5:43:58 AM 3/14/04 “mornin, all, although i haven't gone to bed yet..” 6:41:45 AM 3/14/04 “morning...rainy here today.” 6:54:59 AM 3/14/04 “it is a most beautiful spring morning here.... coffee.. a yank of warm 5 grain french bread with butter and some of that stovestomper honey....mmmm, pineapple smoothie and its off to rejoice in this day at temple... it is tilling day... with a sunset paddle...... everyone have a beauty of a day, however and wherever~~~~~~~~” 7:38:52 AM 3/14/04 “You too, om!! What day is this!?!” 7:49:11 AM 3/14/04 “It's "oh my god I haven't packed yet" day! And I slept in!” 8:10:53 AM 3/14/04 “LOL! get busy treebait!” 8:26:51 AM 3/14/04 Jump to Page << prev
