Good morning girls~ I am sitting here under a REAL SNUGGIE!! MIL got one for each of us...and they are great! LOL...too funny! Michelle, I hope things go well for DH. Keep us posted! I am sure he will get good drugs! Judy, thanks so much for thinking of me with the devotional. It was a great way to start my day. Laura...where are you? Haven't seen you around much and I don't like it! Everyone else...have a great day!

Hey girls~ Susanne is coming home today. I am happy...I woke up early to run to wallyworld. getting pedi at 9! Have a great day...and for pete's sake...stay warm! xoxo

YouTube - Dear Mr. President - Pink Here is the link to the Pink song that I was talking about...if you've never heard it...give it a try and listen to the words. Beautiful message! (some of you might not like it...:w00t:)

Gutten Morgen Violetas~ Well...the last day of training. I did grab a puter to do some plannin yesterday, but none of the violets were talking.:w00t: Hopefully I can pop in today to! Judy, hope you enjoyed the peace of the morning. I didn't read last night and can't wait to get back to it! Michelle, I must be pms'ing or something because I started to cry reading about your ds. We are all proud of him! I also started crying at this pink song I posted on fb too...must be that time...because I don't have a period, I have no idea when it is supposed to arrive! Sus will probably be home on Sunday. She talked about coming back sat, but I think Sunday is the day. I hope it is Sunday so I can relax and shop and get some stuff done w/o her. I miss her, but would love a Sat to myself. I have a buttload of papers to grade this weekend...boohiss...but the $ is good! Have a great weekend! xoxo

tumbleweeds...slowly blowin' by!

Hey Girls, Quick post...I borrowed a laptop and have been planning all day...that squeay biotch is not here today, thank goodness! bbl

Morning girls~ Judy, sorry about the outcome. I can her the "whatever" in your posts. I am glad you like the book..it is funny huh? I wish I had more time to read. I am DREADING the next two days. It is mindnumbingly (is that a word...well it is now) painful. Word can not describe. I've been to tons of trainings...but usually I find some value (albeit, I complain alot), but this takes the cake. I should take my puter, but then I will REALLY check out...and probably get in trouble. You know how (well Judy does) when a student is not on task, the teacher goes and stands by them...this bitch was stalking me. She stayed over my shoulder the whole time and I just kept off task on purpose. She would ACTUALLY COME AND FIND THE RIGHT PAGE IN THE TRAINING BOOK FOR ME(and us, the ppl at my table who are also NOT teaching the new curriculum)...and she probably weighs about 80 pounds w/ a squeaky voice. I NEVER TRUST A WOMAN WHO WEIGHS UNDER 100 POUNDS. UUUUGGGG.... In the words of Judy, I've got to "put on my big girl panties" and get over it. 2 fuckin' days...sorry!:eek::eek::eek::mad2::mad2::sad::thumbdown::wub::cursing::ohmy::huh2::sneaky::eek::frown::mad: I wish everyone a fantastic day! Michelle, purple power for ds tonight...hope he rocks out! Love you...don't have fun w/o me! xoxoxoxo

Hey Girls~ OK...Judy, you are a doll! Love the do, and can't wait to hear how the meeting unfolds. Did you get the Wishin' and Hopin' book...omg, I love it! Laura...the man child has you figured out, haha...the first of many ways to manipulate the parents. Kiss him for me and sing him our song! Haydee, get the Kindle for xmas...it is fun, and Judy is right, the books are sooo much cheaper than "real ones". Heather, I almost got the I Know This Much is True book...check out this other one when Your done...it is too funny! Right now he is explaining why he caused the nuns nervous breakdown. I love it! Got .2 in my fill, bringing me up to a grand total of 2.0 (still had the 1.8 from July in there). Thanks Tracy, and I am hoping this helps me get my head back in the game...just a little bit! OK...gotta do this and that, then going to a friends house for a scentsy/housewarming party. ON A SCHOOL NIGHT!!! xooxoxox Check in after to see about the mtg.

Haydee, ignorance is bliss...don't fight it, tell her to get educated before she makes such comments if you really care :tongue2: Off to another day...blah! Don't have fun w/o me...Jane, that sucks about the ins...any options? Maybe talk to Tracy. hugs sister! xoxoxo everyone have a great hump day! omg, this book is SOOOO good...i love the story and don't want it to end...ever! I like how Wally Lamb writes, She's Come Undone was an awesome read too!

Hey Girls~ LONNNG DAY...but not too bad. The training was ok...good in the am w/ the newcomer curriculum (kids brand new to the USA), and then afternoon was freakin' painful w/ the intermediate level. The book is WWAYAAYY too hard...and it is mind numbing trying to figure how how to bring it down to thier level. uuuggg...I've got 3 more days, but tomorrow we are not in our English Language Developement group but in with the "regular ed" teachers on their new adoption...which doesn't have ANYTHING to do w/ us...who thinks up this scheduling shit? I need more of what I got today...I HAVE TO START THE PROGRAM MONDAY! :tongue: Enough about me. Haydee, whatever you do, do not cancel the Bubble Buster! We will take up a collection to keep that! Remember sweetie, it is NOT about the stuff...it is about you and Juan joining together to be a family of your own! Easy for me to say, I know!:smile: Michelle, your kids are lucky...and you are blessed! I am getting my fill tomorrow, what I really need is a vice grip on my mouth...but that is a different conversation. OK...I bought the new Wally Lamb book called Wishin' and Hopin' OMG it is so good already. It is about a 5th grade boy in 1964 who attends Catholic school. And he is the cause of Sister Mary somethingorother's nervous breakdown. I am on page 4 and already laughing out loud a bunch. Check it out! xooxxoxo

Hey where is everyone~ I have another day of training today...boohiss! But the upside is that I get to wear sweats and a tshirt and that is great. I am meeting my brother and my cutie patootie nephew at 3:25 to see Fantastic Mr. Fox. Great book! Then a little dinner. A date w/ my two guys...what a great way to end the day. Susanne drives to Phoenix today to see her mom for a week. That is it for me today...love you!

oh well...can't figure it out now...but I'll try to attach one pic...not the xmas one, want you all to be surprised

Testing out my new pic...we took a bunch for our xmas cards...

Did you buy the Kindle for the PC? or is this an additional feature. lovin mine!

Well, during my nice leisurely breakfast, I got called to work because my sub didn't show...damn budget cuts. We used to have 2 extra subs, but ain't no mo' money. sigh...bbl

Good Morning Girls~ Blew off working out AGAIN to go have breaky w/ Melissa. We are in this training ALL WEEK and don't have to be there until 8:30. Tomorrow I WILL GO TO THE GYM. LOL...not sure who I am telling that to, but I am going! Get my fill Wed. afternoon...that will be good. I have now mastered the "no drinking during food" finally...and that is helping w/ intake. Never really was a good bandster...but the challenge is for life. I am LOVIN' the kindle...it is already in my purse. I bought two more books already since I am "this close" to finishing The Help. I loved this book, just don't have the time to read...it was sooo great yesterday; it was cloudy but mild, had the doors and windows open, laid on the couch under a blanket, listening to xmas music, and reading...then I stretched out and took a little nappy poo! Sheer heaven! Susanne was gone painting Jenny's new house until 3pm. I LOVED yesterday. OK, have a great day everyone! Check in after the meeting...uggg! OH yeah...our mountains (Michelle and Haydee know my beautiful mountain) is snow capped!! I LOVE IT!

haha Michelle! Judy, do you turn off your Kindle every time you don't use it or only put it to sleep? I love this thing...put it down for Californication but back to it now!

Hey Girls~ I am just enjoying our cloudy day...got the decorations up yesterday and I love it! I have to make 2 shadow boxes for the brides of the last two weekends! Then it is time to Kindle. I am sooo glad that I didn't have papers to grade this weekend! ooxoooxoxo

Morning V's~ Judy...sending you all the purple power today. Enjoy the memories w/ your friends. Michelle...you are funny, and I feel you sista! Enjoy the pj's. Took a shower today and put on fresh pj's but it looks llike sus wants to be pj bound today. We are going (she promised) to help Jenny today paint her house. She said after she wants to come home and chillax. I am going to decorate the house!!! We have a beautiful table top tree (from Costco) and it comes decorated. I put up our fancy stockings, a little garland, a basket of ornaments...and wa la...xmas!!! I put up our new red wreath on the door and it looks GREAT! My Kindle comes today!!! Can't wait! Oh yeah...and Susanne and I EACH bought purple Dell puters (from QVC) that are Windows 7 and have tons of stuff on them!! Damn lesbians! Puters should be here by the 21st of Dec. Did I mention they are purple!!! I was going to buy a new one after xmas (while I was between terms). They are tax deductable, and my old one has survived many terms and even though it was a Vista...it was time. So I get out of the shower and she says, "look at the new toy I just bought!" And I quickly jumped on it too. It is priced well, and it is purple!!! WooHoo! OK...that it is on this end. HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY and Judy...thinking about you extra today! xoxoxoxo

Hey... i am so pissed. The link below takes you to the article we wrote up on the structural racism meeting we had in Oct. The article just came out today on it, and these idiots online are proving that bigotry is alive and well. Just cause we have a black president doesn't mean racism is gone. Check it out if you want...freakin idiots! http://www.mydesert.com/article/20091127/COLUMNS26/911270305/1088/%E2%80%98Structural-racism-must-not-be-allowed-anymore

Laura, I don't get it...am I supposed to??? Michelle, mmmm hot turkey sands! Just had a plate of leftovers and for some reason it was nicer since it took me all of 5 min. to plate it up! We stayed home and watched "earth" (omg, what a beautiful movie) and wizard of oz on blue ray. Then about 3pm, we threw on sweats and went to the recycling center, then over to jenny's house to see the painting job (just moved in last weekend) and then to nikki's house (she also just moved it). It was nice to get out and get some air. Now, home...leftovers...and tv! Getting the Kindle tomorrow. I need to finish the Help so I can start a new book...can't wait! Anyone reading anything great for me to consider. I am pretty picky reader...but love suggestions! I hope everyone is enjoying this nice weekend! Judy, I hope it warms up...or maybe you can just stay under the covers.:thumbup: And I won't give that stupid bitch Palin one red cent to her to run in 2012...but your post made me giggle! xoxooxxo

I get mine tomorrow and can't wait! did some research last night and could not resist! pricey but should be a fun gadget!

Judy, I want to buy a Kindle...do you have a 1 or 2...any advice???

Judy, what 4 day getaway. I don't skim posts...but I missed something. Where ever it is...have funfunfun!

By 3pm we had dinner (turkey, mashed pots, steamed zuccini, gravy and rolls) and already cleaned up! Now...relaxing while we digest a bit so we can get in some cheesecake and peach frozen yougart! Life is great! Feel much better after 2 naps this morning. The swelling has gone down and the bruising has started. Plus, by face is purple from his marker, lol. Hope everyone is enjoying family and laughter today! love love love you! xoox
