Who was the last person you hugged?


I just hugged Lizzie earlier this afternoon..she doesn't feel well today.

Soup

Share a beauty or grooming trick or tip with us.

apparently to lose weight use topamax...LOL :D

Salad

What does the color yellow make you think of?


would it be bad to say pee???


Main Course

If you were to make your living as a photographer, what subject would your pictures revolve around?


kids because they are so fun.

Dessert

What was the longest book you ever read?

I don't remember...but it was around 8-900 pages

From: One tired exhausted mom

I think I may have bitten of more than I can proverbially chew this semester. I am so damn tired and my classes are so intensive!!!! I am doing a paper or 2 a week. Add that to the fact that I have to post to some 2 conference in each class (there are 3), I am overrun. Right now I'm trying to get the kids to help out by just being quite.

(Y'all can quit laughing now!!!)

Also, they've put me back on my topamax prescription as I'm allergic to my house. Here's the dealio there. On topamax I lose weight, so I have to take a supplement (ensure, boost, whatever??) yay me...

I need a nap..anyone want to come give me one???

I swear.....

A lot apparently. No, not really my friend Jen swears alot more than me so I figure I'm good.

Anywho...exactly how did we get on the subject?? Oh well here goes...I was 'informed' that a lady doesn't swear...

by who?? oh the six year old diva that lives in my house.

The offending word: CRAP!!! So, damn it lets remember I'm a lady??? oh wait that wasn't a question..one more try..

I'm a lady
I don't swear..

Now after you quit choking...back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Friday's Feast One Hundred and Eighty.

Appetizer

Have you ever played a practical joke on anyone? If so, what did you do and who was your victim?

A couple of years ago my child asked for a DS for Christmas, so I got one that was filled with gummies--wrapped it and put it under the tree. (Her real DS was hidden in another box)

Soup

What do your salt and pepper shakers look like?


regular ole salt and pepper shakers.

Salad

Where is the next place you plan to visit (on vacation or business)?


I think in a few weeks we are going to do a weekend in Paris.

Main Course

What kind of lotion or cream do you use to keep your hands from getting too dry?

I have so many lotions...I love to buy Bath and Body Works so I have a variety. Whatever I feel like that day.

Dessert

Make up a dessert, tell us its ingredients, and give it a name.

Nummy nummy for my tummy

grind up a snickers in the grinder
throw it on some vanilla ice cream
drizzle caramel sauce on top.

One of "those" people??

I was on another message board and we were 'discussing' the fact that sometimes we had 'those' neighbors. You know the one's who you can't stand.

~~ The one who calls all the time
~~ who expects you to watch their kids at a moments notice.
~~ who always offers to do things for you..that you don't necessarily want them to.
~~ the one's who are just too nice.

I started wondering...Am I one of 'those' people? Do I not respect personal space?
Do I tell too much personal stuff about myself?

Ok I know I'm probably the last one. I do not have a filter and sometimes I will tell too much, but hey. That' me. As for the rest, I don't think so, but who knows.

So, this led to a discussion about 'friends' we wish we hadn't made and I've got a couple of those too...but I'm much too nice to 'break-up' with them. I always worry about hurting other's feelings and well just don't want the drama that goes with it...

**note to you 'lurkers' who know me...IT's NOT YOU>>...I LIKE YOU!!!

So, what about you? do you have those friends? Are you one of those people? Am I? Is that why no-one reads my blog??

I think I'll go pop open a bottle (or two) of wine and think about this...

So out of it..

I'm in a human sexuality class this semester and one of our first assignments was to talk about how the media influences sexuality.

I'm old and apparently don't listen to music or watch TV as people were bring up all kinds of shows and songs that I didn't even know about or hadn't seen. Shoot.

I thought I was a 'hip' mom...you know I listen to that 'superman' song..well at least I did until I found out what it was about...

Hip?? or need a replace hip is what I now think...

sighhh...

Going to change my depends now...

Valentine's Day

I was all set to bitch and whine about my Valentines Day when I had to sit back and reflect...It's not about the presents but about the LOVE...


So, here my friends..I got this in an email and dedicate it to all of you.

You want WHO to fix the computer??

So my friends (all two of you) we are having some EVIL computer problems this week...

1) Steven's whole flippin hard drive crashed!!! We kept getting an 'can't find operating system' message on his computer...bahhhhhhh -- What'll be funny is he has a class in Ramstein the week after next and will have to take my PRETTY pink computer with him to the class...

2) My vonage router crashed which led to my wireless router crashing...again bahhhhh

3) I had to reset up the wireless router...me?? that sucks the big one..I hate dealing with computers..thank goodness a friend has offered to come help me.
