  1. Jenn sorry for your loss. It is hard to find the right words sometimes, but know I care.
  2. Good morning, just checking in, have a great Halloween!!
  3. I am up, I think it will be another really tough day, and then tomorrow we are supposed to be let out early for Halloween, it has gone past six most nights and the judge told the jury that they would for sure get early for that. Then Saturday I work. I am sooo tired, I just want to go back to bed. Instead I will be a good girl and get in the shower. Jane
  4. Is there a little smily face that is screaming?????? I am so stressed out. My mom is super stressed out. There is sooo much drama at the courthouse. It is from the other family, but it puts us on pins and needles. My mom is making me nuts, and my dad just goes along with it to make her feel better. Well who is making me feel better? I will tell you who, food!!! I won't tell you what I am eating, but it is terrible and involves a two step process!! The trial is going to last longer than anticipated, so that means more time off work. I am going to work Saturday, then Sunday we have tickets to see "The Color Purple". So that is nice diversions!! But then someone said that Saturday might have trial. I need that screaming smiley face again!!! I am going to sort of veg out and relax and try not to think about how terrible today was. Jane
  5. I am up and grumpy! I am sitting here trying to motivate myself to take a shower. Have a great day everyone!!!
  6. Too cute amanda!!!! Congrats!! Call your states insurance board. All states have them, do you have insurance now? If you get turned down, but are still under coverage you can qualify for your states health insurance pool. All states are different, but here in Missouri it is expensive. I pay $586 a month (I am 45) with a $2500 deductible and another out of pocket of $5000 (20% of $25,000). It is weird but I discussed this with someone about a year ago, and they said the same thing, that alot of insurance are holding out on coverage for weight reduction surgery patients. It seems odd, but it is the government. We can only hope that it changes with the new president. Good luck, if you want to call me you can at night this week, and anytime next week. If you need my number call. I have been through many circles with insurance, but like I said all states have different plans. You can maybe hope yours is a good one. I got up this morning. Yea!!! Now I need to do the same tomorrow. I am so grumpy in the morning. Jane
  7. Court was horrible, but I expected it. It moves sooo slow!!! I bet it won't be done til next week, hence my problem of what do I do then? I am off on Monday, but next week I am SUPER busy. So, hopefully it will be over by Tuesday. I wish I would have absentee voted, we didn't have early voting here, did try one time to absentee vote, but the wait was over one hour and I had to go to dentist. Laura, the bump is toooooo cute!!! Denise loved the pictures of the boys!!! Oh well, I need to go run some errands. Bye!!!
  8. Hello, today ended up being jury selection taking all day! So tomorrow the real thing is supposed to start. My parents are picking me up at 7:30. I am so not an early bird. So I will be up by six, do you hear that I will be up by six!!!!! If I say it enough times will that make it a reality and the six I will jump up?!? Isn't it dark at six? I did one of those paid research studies on banking tonight, it was supposed to be from 7:30 - 9:30 and I got paid $85!!! It was pretty fun. I learned about the different ways we are using our home equity loans. One guy (there were 7 of us) got a line of credit and is buying stock! He is a cpa so I am assuming he knows what he is doing? Odd. Can't beat the money and it was only about an hour. I think they were hoping for a bunch of whiners with bad experiences, but really only one girl there had a bad experience. I guess at our age I shouldn't refer to her as a girl huh? Anyways, off to do a few piddly things so I can be up at six!!! Why can't I just be one of those people like Suzie that just wakes up early? by the way Suzie, my sister wrote you a thank you note for your donation, so when you get something in the mail that is signed by the Weidmans you know who it is. Thanks again!!! Jane
  9. Okay this board was weird last night and this morning. I couldn't post or anything. Got a phone call a little while ago that the court has been pushed back just a few hours so now I won't be leaving til 11. Had wife swap on, just because last night I watch Army Wives so it was on lifetime. OH MY GOSH!!!! I think Terry you are right, everyone needs a violet!!! I don't know what I would do without all the positive energy that we get from each other!!! Have a good start of the week!!
  10. Babysitting was fun. I was a little worried (I know this is going to surpise all of you since you think of me as sooo techologically savvy!!) but I figured out how to use the tivo and dvd! Okay there was a explanation from my sister. Just when I had their video system down pat, they get tivo!! Everythings different. Was supposed to go out today with some friends, but backed out because I feel horrible. My mom came and relieved me, and was shocked at how I looked. She is the one who told me to cancel my plans and get in bed. The trial with my cousin starts tomorrow, and this is going to be a very very emotional week. So she doesn't want me sick or making anyone sick. Did I tell you that I haven't started my period yet? Can we say raging hormones???? Tracy you are ALWAYS so kind to list everyone in your replies!!! I appreciate it soo much. You are a sweetie, thanks!!! Okay I am going to take a hot shower and then get in bed. Jane
  11. Tracy, you can call me whenever! I really don't have a huge social life. Last night I went shopping, and I really needed someone to STOP me!!! On a different note, I PB'D yesterday for the first time in almost a year!! I got a little fill yesterday, and forgot and wham!!!! But I was happy!! I did gain a few pounds when I went back to Dr. He didn't say anything. He tried for 1/2 an hour to find my port, any finally found it!! I swear I had internal injuries from him doing it!!!! OWWW is all I can say. Now I am bruised and have needle marks by my port. It is find today, just a little sore. Well I better go and hop in shower, have to be at work at 9:00, I probably won't post anymore today, babysit overnight at my sisters, and can browse the internet, but I don't want to post there. Have a great weekend!! Terry if I didn't have to work I would love a bead show!!!!!
  12. Yeah Kat!!!!! Hang in there Suzanne and Tracyks!!!!!!! Good Picture of necklace and hair Judy!! Terry and Laura I am 75% republican, still am not sure though who I am voting for. My issue is my insurance. So that makes me vote for Obama, but everything else is screaming McCain. Since I am self employed, I already get to write off all my premiums, I need a choice and lower premiums. For me the most important issue is my insurance, but do I want to vote just for that? Everytime I decide for Obama I get swayed very easy on everything else. Enjoy your weekend Haydee!! Are you staying away from bad food Tracyk? Have a great time Pamela at Tina Turner!!! Hi Gina, Denise, HH, Jennifer and baby violet!!!
  13. Hello anyone home????? Oh where oh where did the violets go oh where oh where can they be if i was more awake i could think of a way to write this song Have a good day!!!
  14. No doubt Judy!! By the way Laura, you made me feel old!! Who is Rick Springfield?
  15. wow just got home from work and have you guys been slow!!!!!!!!
  16. Judy, great pics, beautiful pics of sunrises/sunsets!! Did they compensate you at all for changing for Omar? What were those berry looking things on the banana tree in the first few pics. Pamela, I agree with Tracyk about Rick Springfield, although I must say he looks very very good in that picture compared to how he looks on General Hospital. I saw him in concert many many years ago, funny story to that, and makes me laugh, but too long to tell here, and it is one of those stories you have to know the people involved. But it made me laugh and think back.......... GREAT PICS OF MACY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will be in the trial next week. Hopefully it will be over by Friday but you never know. I am sure no Halloween will happen, although my neice is going to be a banana. I think it is more for my sister than my neice. I feel so sorry for my sister. She is burdened with the care of my niece, but she really isn't a burden, that is a bad 'word' choice, but really don't know what else to use. I am babysitting Saturday night after work and will spend the night. She is special and a handful, but we love her to pieces!!!! Off to the salt mines, I see that Jennifer is also green!! Can't they make us violet? Bye!!!!!!! By the way Kat, any word on your tests?
  17. Is my avatar a different color when I am offline? I am going right now to get ready for work, let me know if it is still green in a bit! I am intrigued!! Is it a sign or something, or a miracle?????? Maybe it means my fill appointment Friday won't be so bad!!!
  18. Hey, I didn't change or add anything, why is there a little green person on my left?
  19. Good morning!! Cold day here, but no rain, I thought by sure the way Tracyks talked we would have it, I guess it is that Taganotchi thing! Busy day today, hate it when I have to be at work at 10:00, I know you are all jealous!!! But at 8:00 p.m. when I am still at work..... Hugs to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. Good evening, kind of had a stressful day today, nothing major at all. Just my coping mechanism is a bit off. I wonder why I am still heavy? Gosh could it be when the going got tough the tough went to the grocery store hungry and stressed? Golly Gee!!! My therapist has been on maternity leave for three months, and now she is back tomorrow. I think I am glad, but now I can't afford her!! Economy got to love it!!! What random thoughts tonight!!! I hope you guys don't think I am crazy!! Hope you all have a great night sleep!!!
  21. Hello everyone!! That sucks Tracyks. But, nobody takes care of things as well as mom. My nose has hit a new high or low depending on how you look at it of stuffiness!!! I really don't feel bad, but sound bad and can only breathe with my mouth open!! Okay new week, make it a good one!!!
  22. JUDY IS BACK!!!!!!!!! Tracyks has he officially been diagnosed with something? If so then that should be all you need for some respite care. Don't let your head explode cause it is messy to clean up!!!
  23. YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUDY'S BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :tongue2::smile::biggrin:
  24. Laura I would be scared for your Grandmother also. I think there are some people that prey on older people, especially women. I see it all the time at the shop when somebody tells me about their experiance or their mothers or whatever. It makes me mad. My lunch date fell through, so just have dentist, and by the way did I tell you guys I got a ticket? At work? On private property? Well I am going up to City Hall today and raise cain. I mean I have worked there over 23 years, and all of a sudden they can give a ticket on private property??? I don't think so!!! Plus I am pmsing so this should be FUN!!!!! I can be so onery at times!! Okay have a good day. Oh and Tracy, I think I would wait too.
  25. by the way Hi Tracy and Laura
