ay-yup!

it were one of those nights for me too, Finny...

I kicked the blankets on the floor,
Turned my pillow upside down...
I never, never did before..
Because I was tossin' and turning
Turning and tossin'
Toss and turn all night...

:D

got all my animals fed, and the bed stripped...

now gobbling down a plate of scrambled eggies (collected from the hens at dawn), with tomatoes and bell peppers from my garden...

and a steaming cuppa fair-trade fresh-roasted organic local coffee, YUM !!!

today's going to be busy, I'm moving my little Belize message board to a PAID server (from a hokey ad-cluttered "free" site)

it can be such a PITA arranging financial transactions (even online) from a foreign country.

lol, like I'm a credit-card-number-stealing terrorist, or something!

:cool::eek::cool:

Oh, the truth comes out. LOL.

Kay & Fin - I'm sorry you both had a rough night. I hate those nights. Fin, you are right - you can always tell what kind of night you had by the way the bed looks in the morning. LOL.

well, it's pretty silly...

I have a bank account back in the US, which gets the auto-deposit of my SSDI.

and I use my DD's address in California, for a mail drop.

then, I use PayPal for online stuff, (and wire transfers to bring $$ here...)

but *some* people get positively *itchy* because my physical address abroad doesn't match my mailing address stateside.

then, I have to explain, and explain, and prove who I am.

I'm grateful that they're all so vigilant about protecting my account from would-be thieves, but... ya think after THREE years, they'd not need me to explain every time.

:D:p:D

PS: Carolyn, I'm sorry about your loss... that's a hard thing... hang in there, honey. we're all with you.

:grouphug:

Sorry Kayo about your $$ issues...we had that too when overseas especially after our identity got stolen in Turkey and then here in WA state...we had a service on our cards that had to call us and question every transaction and the big 3 credit agencies had to contact us before any credit checks were run to make sure it was actually us doing it! AHHH foreign banking!

Olivia was hacking up a lung between 3 am and 5 am this morning, I am exhausted, I did however let her go to preschool this morning after missing since last Wed and she cried so hard I almost took her right back out...I'm wondering if I started her too soon :(

Speaking of which I need to go so I can get ready to go pick her up...then I am am taking the kids to the library and then for ice cream!

ohh, ice cream. YUM!!!!


Just sitting here relaxing before work. While I was getting ready, looked at my side of the bed. Can't believe how much I must've moved in my sleep last night! On the plus side, it was time to change the sheets anyways and they are half undone for me, lol :D

hey everybody ...

trying to go slow today without upsetting my stomache ... tums don't help and don't want to eat anything ... but have lots to do ... stress? ME? LOL

Carolyn :hug: ... and keep up your strength!! don't wear yourself out!

**UPDATE**
we got more snow last night - but it's melting FAST! whew!

I watch JEOPARDY almost everyday - and BELIZE comes up as the question alot!! and sometimes I even guess ... and feel so smart! (thanks, Kay!!)

well, need to stay busy with school ... and I read the job description for the Vocational Rehabilitation Counseler (in-training) .. I'd still have to get licensing - but qualify for the majority of it ... even working with others and LEARNING about the programs out there (will find out for myself on friday when I meet with a counselor) ...

be good everybody!!

I haven't been here in a couple days, so I just looked.
Cayo, those geese pictures are cute. I saw my first Robins today (big thing in areas that get 'cabin fever'). I bet one was a boy & one was a girl :D ;)

Well did what I said,picked up Olivia then took the kids to the library then we went for ice cream, one of our pilots of the F-22 Raptor here has started a demo team and he was practicing stunts so we sat outside in an area of the base we could see really well and watched him, then amazingly he came and flew right over our heads so low the earth shook! Olivia was clinging to me a shaking and screaming coooool airplane at the same time! Dayton of course will be worthless for the rest of the day LOL! He said it was like having our own personal air show. Now trying to get everyone calm so we can nap!

Hey everyone!

I just thought I would check in. I'm doing pretty well. I went into my office at school this morning and did some research. I am still using my cane less and less. Dealing with a bit of burning in my arm and a sandy foot for the past few days, but both seem better today. I am looking forward to summer and using the community pool for some exercise. I'll have to see how I do in the heat. Last summer was horrible, but the heat did not bother me when I was in Texas a few weeks ago.

Renne, "Air show" sounds like fun. My two old niece loves flying and is always talking about going up in an airplane. She still occasionally cries when she goes to daycare (has been in it for over a year) , but has a good time when she is there. On some weekends, she sometimes says she wants to go to "work."

Vonn, Hope your tummy feels better soon. I take nexium and it has helped alot. You might need something stronger than tums.

Kay and Finn, I hate those nights too. I will sometimes play computer games in the middle of the night. I was shopping alot online during the fall in the middle of the night. But thankfully, I have stopped that. Bought 6 tins of cheese pretzels one night. Don't ask. It seemed like a good idea at the time.:rolleyes: They were good. LOL

Renee, Your own personal air show sounds cool. Glad the kids enjoyed it. :)

Barb, LOL. Thanks for sharing the dangers of shopping online in the middle of the night. :D Glad to hear you are using your cane less and less.

Vonn, :hug: Hope your tummy is feeling better soon.

Have some time off from work coming up in the middle of April. Yipee! Hubby was complaining that I was getting burnt out and needed time off that didn't revolve around doc appointments.

Hope everyone has a good day today!
