Morning...I mean afternoon, all...busy people!!

Kelly, wrap yourself in an afghan and watch a funny movie...take care of yourself...

Cookies, cookies, cookies!!! Pass some here!!!

I had the visit from the Copaxone nurse a little while ago...she went over everything with me, and I got the first injection in...still stings a little...but not difficult at all...thank God for autoinject!! Still feels a bit unreal...but I'm grateful that there's meds to slow down the progression...

Darn, it's cold!! Puts you in the holidy spirit, that's for sure!!

I'm pretty sure that my breathing problems are from a cold/sinus thingie...I took decongestant and Hall's cough drops, and I feel a lot better...plus, being off the pred makes me feel a lot better. And I slept all right last night...woke up every two hours, but went right back to sleep...ahhhh, feels great!!

Sandy, i like that lift, but what was that guy thinking?

Well, I guess I should get something done today...or not

Students are so funny. I walked into class, and I heard rumblings of she got her hair dyed. Then one of the guys said, "did you dye your hair "and I answered "yes, I wanted a change." Then another one of the guys, said "cool." Meanwhile the female students were smiling as if to say, I can't believe they are making comments about her hair. As I was leaving the building, another student that I do not know said to me that she really liked my bag (purse) and that it was cute. When I was a student I would have never made personal comments to the prof's. I was scared of them. It is a sign of the changing times, I guess. I guess I am not scary enough! I think they actually see most of us as people. That is a good thing!

it was frickin cold this morning said 5 above outside

ok I found a better way to get the kid to help clean house I put on the Nashville country channel on puter and crank it yes they hate it and can normally tolerate country but this station doesn't play that Hollywood country music like us 99 they play bluegrass gospel and older country way cool house got clean real quick told them want the music off then get done,, see more than one way to skin a cat

Frank, LOL! that's one way to get it done.

Sox, those shortbread bites sound soooo dangerous. Since I love shortbread, I don't think any would've made it to the freezer - LOL!

Debbie, Glad you're feeling better today. Yep, the meds make everything a little surreal when you first get them. Then you forget their even there. A great example was Frank's pic of the cake in the fridge and it took Sandy to say something for me even to notice his Copax box.

Barb, Yep, times are a changin'. I know that being the daughter of a college prof, I was never scared of my teachers or profs.

Barb this is a real good thing, you are reaching them, they feel safe enough to talk to you as a human not as a authoritative figure, i thing its a good thing, not like they are 6-9 where they need a lot of structure, its cool

when do we get a pic of the new hair, soon i hope. would hate to start a poll and a new thread asking who all wants to see your new hair lol now get us some pics just funnin with you, i will let sandy start the new poll

Now that is a reason to dance. I loathe winter. Once I'm on my own I plan to move south. How far south kinda depends on where the kids are.

Still no word on the job. Since I was there yesterday getting some videos (it's a library) I thought it best to stay away today. If I don't hear anything by Monday I'll go in then with a return and ask for an update while I'm there. I know my references were contacted Monday and Tuesday. Bios were written after that and sent to the board. Then it was prayer time followed by board meeting time. I wish I would have asked when the board was meeting. Toss in Feast Day and that may have delayed some things. Monday will be a week and a half after my interview and a full work week after too.

Caught DD red handed skirting her home school responsibilities. Welcome to classes on Saturday. Got my fingers crossed this will prevent her from getting a job before she graduates in May.

Guild meeting tonight. Can hardly wait. Sit around talking about yarn and fiber stuff and no one looks at you like you got two heads.

Have a great evening everyone.

I think I have the flu......body aches, throat sore, ears hurt....waaaaa! I took some Aleve a little bit ago but this will require antibiotics, I think. I'll call my PCP first thing tomorrow morning. Think he'll just call in something for me? I foresee a trip to the doctors office.....

It hurts to even type but it also hurts to lay down....I just cannot get comfortable.

OK...whine over. I'll live. I've survived worse........

Weave...I hope you hear about the job soon. It's hard to wait.

Sandy...that chair lift looks awesome! I really do hope it works out and you get it.

Barb....now you're the cool teacher babe with red hair!!

Sox....I will PM you my address so you can mail me some cookies!

DebbieD...good luck with the C. That was my first DMD.

Fin, Vonn, Tara (where the heck are you?), Renee and anyone else I didn't mention here's a . I held my breath so I wouldn't breathe germs on you!!

Kelly here's the stats.......... he's 45, 6'4ish, umm he's black so he has black hair and brown eyes. He is a former football player and still has the killer body. He has an amazing smile. And he's super sweet and treats me like a princess! What more could a girl ask for?

could you give me the recipe for the shortbread bites?????

things I have learned today...

1.) there is no such thing as a "slow time" at a toy store this close to the holiday. Slower than other times, but still busy.

2.) found out which painting hubby finally chose for our cards. Decided to make the "loser" my avatar until the holiday is over.

3.) found out that the gray cat looks good in light purple as she sniffed the paints as I was working on a painting. Learned that I am so glad I use acrylic and it's easy to get out of carpet before it dries.

4.) doc offices can be real slow getting ahold of people. Hoping it's like an insurance hiccup. Will call PCP back if haven't heard anything by lunch tomorrow.

5.) Trying to turn on a muscle fatigued leg after an hour 'n half walking through afore-mentioned toy store is an adventure in acrobatics.

6.) Write down list of errands needing run. Otherwise you get home and realize you forgot a few things.


Hope everyone has a great night.
