The shoulder is better today, but still very sore!

Judy, I hope you have a safe trip!!!

Pamela, how do you spell Su(s)(z)anne? It is pronounced

Sue-Zah-Knee right?

Laura, where are you? Those pictures of Carson were so cute! You know the one I like!! I have all month to work out what I will say to help you win a picture on Facebook!

Haydee I hope you had a great time!!!

Michelle when is your trip over????????? I hope you are having/had a great relaxing time!!!!!!

Off for some major errands today!!!

Susanne, is spelled like that, Susanne, but yes pronounced as Sus-Zan-Knee. It is Susanne, but w/ the German accent.

Poor Susanne, how weird you would think it would be YOU with the meat stuck!! Good thing she didn't choke!!

Hah Jane, don't worry about it. It's just whoever has the most amount of comments, not what is said. I end up buying an 8x10 of whatever ones I like, so I'm not worried about winning the free print at the end of the year, I'll have already bought it. But thank you!! I loved how they turned out, I can't wait to see the rest. She didn't preview any of the hawaiian ones, and there were a lot of the record background that were cute when she was taking them. I'm MUCH happier with how these turned out than the 6m pics.

Laura, I love the pictures of Carson. They turned out really nice for the 1 year shots.

Hey girls...

I'm back! Got in this a.m.& when we got to the car it was dead as a doornail, not even a click when I turned the key. So we called the emergency guy & he came & jumped it. I drove home & re-started it a few times & it didn't sound so good, so I brought it to the shop to get it checked out/fixed. Fun. Not. That's where I am now.

The trip was nice, very different than when I've been w/the family, but nice. I just enjoy being there... good vibes.

Loads to do to catch up @ home... missed a couple "mommy" moments & I hate that... my mom said that the kids need to start to learn how to handle little disappointments w/out me, but I still don't like it & it makes me feel bad/sad. So I shopped a lot to make up for it, lol!

Hope all is well w/each of you!

[HeatherO 7]

Michelle, I am sooo happy that you took that trip. I think you not only deserved it but needed it after the emotional upheavals over the last couple of months.

Also, I was just curious, when you shopped to make up for those special "mommy" moments missed . . . were you shopping for you, the kids or both, lol???

[kity 2]

Glad to have you back Michelle! I hope your trip was enjoyable...I'd kill to go somewhere w/ my mom. I hope the kids were ok w/o you.

I go today to check the labs from the hormone test...should be interesting.

Hey Michelle!! Glad you are back!! Cars suck!!

I am getting excited to see everyone!! I seriously thought about it today!! Time sure flies!!!

I am wearing capris two days in a row!!!

Hope Judy and Bob get back safe!

Laura what about the tax thing????

[janiebug 0]

I called ATT and got $20 off my u-verse plan for 6 months!

I don't know why they do it, but I am glad!!!!!!!!!

There is a new show on tv called 'Best food Ever" Yum!!

[Teachlady 3]

Good evening, Violets..

Bob and I are back!! Bob gained 6# since we were there last and he lost 2.5 cc from his band. He got a .5 fill and we'll see how that goes. We met with the nutritionist and hopefully he let the info sink in this time.

I gained 10# in a year and a half and didn't get a fill. I feel I am at my sweet spot, I just need to defeat the head hunger. If I need a fill I can get one next month when we go back.

Off to pack to go to Grand Rapids tomorrow to see Lord of the Dance with Kris. Glad you're back, Michelle!!!

Everyone have a good night.. sleep well!!

[HeatherO 7]

Judy, I hope you have a great time at Lord of the Dance . . . I always thought that would be a great show.

Jane, I wore capris yesterday and loved it. It is so nice when the weather gets warm enough that you can start doing that.

Hi Gang~

Glad we are back up and running...I can't get email here. Well, the hormone test revealed........ wait for it....NOTHING! I am normal and she said I have WONDERFUL levels, that of a 20 year old!!! I am glad the labs were normal. I just looked at her and said, "So, what...I am just a bitch?" and she laughed and said, "Yep, you are just a bitch!" I am glad that the labs were normal, but I still have the patience of a gnat, and think it is just middle school. Sigh!

We are pushing to go to a year round schedule for the following school year (11-12). I LOVE YEAR ROUND. We'd be off the entire months of November, March and July, plus have the 2 weeks at Xmas!!! It is great for kids and really prevents burnout for teachers. Cross your fingers.

OK...bbl

Good morning!!

I am tired.

Today starts my work week, and I hope for the sake of money it is busy!!!

I hope everyone has a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pamela, I couldn't be a teacher for the hours, I couldn't get adjusted to the being off for awhile and then going back for a llllooooonnnnnnnggggggggggggg time! Year round seems to be the answer for me!!

[Daisalana 33]

Sorry I keep forgetting to answer the tax thing cause I get distracted!! His mom never called to say anything to Russ, and apparently his dad was not home. And she told his brother not to say anything to the dad (I guess he doesn't know?!), and they left.. and no one knows what was said or what happened.
