Morning all! Sitting here relaxing after rushing the old enough boys to their dental appointments. Sheesh, you'd think they'd know to set and alarm and take a shower at their age? LOL

I am going to work on bills today and maybe a clean up of decs if those stupid bins ever get here! I need to also call the Ramp Up people and see if they got my email about signing up at Ebay charities so I can donate some of the money from the stair lift to them. Anyone need a stair lift in my area?

Have a good day everyone and stay warm, healthy and safe.

Sandy, why not post in the Classified section here on NT? Ya never know...

Kelly I see you raised a comedian!

Ok you've convinced me to make the laundry soap. I've had the ingredients sitting in my laundry cabinet for 2 years! Now I'm motivated... I'll let ya know how it works in my water.

Everyone: read through the posts... ya'll are busy beavers this morning. I'm still fighting some bug and laying low again today.

I did get up at 6am to prod my 13 yr old to get up and get ready for school. He was ready for the bus by 7am and at 15 after he says mom, the bus is late. I thought oh boy... I did not want to try to drive in the morning traffic at the school. Soooo.. the little stink goes and checks the school calendar on line and guess what... NO SCHOOL today. It's a teacher work day only. How'd I miss that one .

Oh well good practice for tomorrow!

I may do that. I haven't listed it yet until it gets taken down and ready for pick up. I cannot ship it so it has to be picked up. Too heavy and I don't have the proper packaging for it.

I meant to post a few pics from the wedding. It was Nik's good friend that got married.

Jim and I. I told Nik take another because Jim had his head tilted too much. haha


Jim and I waiting for Nik to finally take the second pic. lol


Chris and Nik a little blurry.


The bride and groom, Phil and Michelle.


BFF's.

Wow...you guys clean up pretty good...just kidding...but you both look pretty hot!!

Hi everyone! I spent the morning in my office at school working on my syllabi (course outlines). I finished them so I am all ready for classes to start next week. (Not really!)

Sandy, When I first looked at your pictures I thought the bride and groom were your sons. Oops!

Debbie D, When I first read the beginning of your post, I thought you were saying that you are in South Beach, Florida and then you are going to Hawaii.

Obviously, I need a nap.

I was on the South Beach diet for a few weeks and lost weight, but could not maintain it. I guess I like carb's too much. WW seems to work the best for me although I have not been really trying for several months.

Kelly, I need to go to an attorney too. It has been one of those things that I keep putting off. I also want to sign a living will.

Hope everyone is having a good day!

Barb, you'll feel much better about your future if you go ahead and get it taken care of. My main objective for it was to spare my children the hassle of trying to do things without a will and without a POA. My circumstances are a little different because of Tim's early death.....and I know what I went through due to no will and nothing put in writing (legally). Trust me.....it's a nightmare unless you've got your ducks in a row.

Everyone should think about this. It's not really morbid. It's just planning ahead and thinking about those who will still be here. I look at it as still having the last word even though I won't be physically able to!!

You're right about the will/POA, and sounds like you definitely know what you're talking about...must have made losing your DH so much more difficult...

We had a will made in the mid '90s when our kids were dependents, so we need to get back and redo it, as well as set up POA and a trust...especially since we go to Hawaii every year...you never know...best to make it easier on the survivors...

I've been putting off the healthcare POA, so I need to get off my duff about that one. I still got the form around here somewhere waiting to be witnessed/notorized.
