Earth, Wind and Fire Baby!!

Do you remember the 21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away

Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing.
As we danced in the night,
Remember how the stars stole the night away

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love,
Remember how we knew love was here to stay

Now December found the love
that we shared in September.
Only blue talk and love,
Remember the true love we share today

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - golden dreams were shiny days

Well, it's all my family ever does.  My whole life, we never did anything but camp.  We never took any trips or anything else, because we always went camping.  And I am just so damn sick of it.  Now that I'm an adult, I want to get out and see things.  Don't get me wrong, the mountains are beautiful.  But there is a whole big world out there!

I love free food- the type that grows wild & you pick it- and early September in the UK is the best time for most of it. Last year I picked 12 types of edible mushrooms (some hallucinogenic), blackberries, sloes, apples etc. Also the best time for catching some types of fish & game. I'll be missing it this year 'cos of circumstances, it's really bugging me, but at least our chef's making use of as many fresh things as she can gather, currently sitting here with a belly full of delicious Bramley apple tart. Mmmm! :)

Today is Open House for James.  I already sort of know his teacher from seeing her around the school over the past two years.

School starts for them both tomorrow.  Elizabeth has moved to a new school and her bus comes a lot earlier.  She has to leave the house around 7 to walk to her stop.  :o

We are also going to the dentist today.  :-\\

So, the wildfire season has already arrived for southern California... and I'm sure it's been on the news across the US as well. I've been watching updates on the TV news.

The blaze known as the "Station Fire" had started over the weekend and has been threatening homes in the communities of La Canada Flintridge, La Cresenta, Tujunga, and Sunland. This also includes the neighborhood which contains the house where the movie E.T. was filmed, back in 1981. I was watching news, anxiously hoping that that place would be safe.

I found some internet articles not too long ago about this.

I hope Mr. Piowowar is right about his home being safe. :o He says he feels confident that the firefighters can get the fire put out before it comes too close.

Carlos is planning to offer about 12 something-hey what the hell. Apparently, it is the bank that is holding it and we are pretty sure that the bank wants to get rid of it.

From what we can see that needs serious work is the roof, some plumbing (the master bath is without a bath) and the entrance to the master bedroom has to be relocated. The house is only 10 years old. Then we have to really put in a kitchen (right now, it only has a sink). We are both pretty excited about this.


Yup-that's right folks, Carlos & I are going to buy a fixer-upper on the island of Puerto Rico. We are flying down there in two weeks to check things out and hopefully, we will come home as second home-owners.

Update on the wildfires: the "Station Fire" in L.A. County is up to 22% containment, which is a big jump from 5% in the early part of yesterday. So that's a good sign.

Inspections generally consist of:

Overall cleanliness of the store.
They will want to see clean floors, restrooms, checkstands and storerooms

They will also want to see a clean parking lot

They will check how orderly the shelves look

they will check how courteous the staff is.

they will check to see that there are plenty of wagons available at the front of the store...

And- they will check for infestations but since all grocery stores have rodents they just want to make sure yours are not out in the open... or that the soda cans are clean and the breads have not been chewed.

Thanks everyone. We KNEW that it acquired a lot of work and we think we knew what exactly that work involved. It was just TOO good to be true-the location for us (only 10 minutes from my SIL's ) and the price was so definitely right. The good news is now I don't have to figure out how to convince Carlos that I don't want to stay down there 5 months out of the year.  :-\\  He still wants to do this-so I guess we will continue to look. My SIL told us that the realtor told her that this is 3rd one he has had like that in the area. If another one comes up, he will call her.

It's what we did here in Pittsburgh.  Although ours was slightly more then 20,000.  Sometimes a good deal is just too hard to pass up (even if it means having to "fix-er-up".

As for me:  $400 in car repair later, we have a rebuilt alternator (I'm car stupid) but I think it has something to do with keeping a charge in the car battery.  Since that is pretty important for the car, it had to be done.  It puts us pretty short on bill money, but we'll get by (sorta).  :-\\  I did win $40 in the casino before the car decided to spaz out, so at least that helps.

I think we would have had a better time if it was just the three of us because the college kids were so clueless. On the way home, one kid said that he was a bit disappointed because he only met one witch. I informed him that there were two on the bus. He didn't know how to respond.

Oh yeah, today we are going to the annual barbecue at the college. That is AFTER the first ever football game. We opted out of going to the game-even though it is an historical event. Neither one of us gets into football-and from what they are saying, the crowd is going to be unbelievable. I do love the tee shirts-"Undefeated since 1787" (when the college was founded). Of course that may change after today.  :-\\

Oh, I forgot to tell you that I talked to a former colleague of Carlos (and a former teacher of mine) about Carlos' emeritus status. The thing is, the head of the department is "evil" (according to the secretary-who we also saw) doesn't want to do it and this one teacher is basically the only left TO do it. I suggested to her to go to the dean & to the president if need be. She said that may be a good idea since she knows the department WON'T.

Beautiful day yesterday.  Sig did all "the fluids" in the car, then youngone and I went to Salisbury Beach, and what a perfect beach day it was.  Not too hot(yes, it can be too hot for the beach), waves, plenty of parking, relaxing.  Then from there we went down the road to Newburyport to the Labor Day street fair.  Today is the Labor Day Bread and Roses fair in Lawrence, celebrating the "Bread and Roses" strike of 1912 in that city.  It's success was chalked up in a large way to the ladies  ;)

Bread & Roses: The Strike Led and Won by Women


Jan. 12 was the anniversary of the start of the 1912 Bread and Roses strike--one of the most significant struggles in the history of the U.S. working class--in Lawrence, Mass.

A new state law had reduced the work week from 56 to 54 hours. A small gain for workers? Sounds like it. But of course the bosses found a way to gain the advantage.

They speeded up the looms and cut the average measly wage of $6 a week--a last straw for workers living on the edge of starvation.

When the wage cut was announced, workers shouted: "Short pay! Short pay!" Thousands of women and men started a spontaneous strike that rippled through two dozen textile factories in Lawrence.

Some 23,000 people left the mills and poured into the streets.

Immediately the National Guard was called out, along with 22 militia companies and 50 thugs disguised as strikers. They overturned trolley cars, smashed windows, assaulted people and planted dynamite near the strike headquarters.

But even quicker on the scene was Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, a 21-year-old organizer for the Industrial Workers of the World--the Wobblies. Flynn, Big Bill Haywood and other IWW leaders moved in to help organize the strike.
AN EARLY DEATH

Lawrence was founded in 1845 as a textile city. By the turn of the century, advanced technology had enabled the owners to bring in lower-paid workers and force the skilled workers out.

In 1905 the American Woolen Company built the world's biggest textile plant in Lawrence, hiring Arab, Russian and East European immigrants. By 1912, people of 25 different nationalities lived within a one-mile radius of the mill.

They lived in crowded company-owned tenements. Eight to 10 people from different families shared one living space. Whole families--including children under 14 years old--worked in the mills.

The mills were hot and humid. The work was fast paced, with high accident rates.

Bosses made ethnic slurs. They sexually harassed the women.

Workers froze in the winter because they couldn't afford the clothes they produced. Rickets were common among children for lack of milk. Nearly half died before they were 6 years old.

Over one-third of the mill workers died before age 25, mostly from tuberculosis and other respiratory illnesses.


PROTESTING IN 25 LANGUAGES

In 1912, the American Federation of Labor was a grouping of weak craft unions, made up of white men organized by trade. The AFL refused to organize Black workers. Until 1918, the federation barred women from membership--even in an industry like textiles with twice as many female workers as male.

The AFL opposed the Lawrence strike, calling it revolutionary and anarchistic.

The IWW, in contrast, was formed by socialists like Eugene Debs. They called for industry-wide unions and even one big union for the whole country. The IWW emphasized unity and solidarity.

The Lawrence strike broke new ground in two ways. Women led it. And there was a conscious effort to unite workers of all nationalities.

Every union meeting was translated into 25 different languages.

There were four demands: a 15-percent wage increase, a 54- hour work week, double pay for overtime, and rehiring of all strikers without discrimination.

But the workers saw the strike as really a broader struggle.

Elizabeth Gurley Flynn had grown up poor in New England mill towns. She watched starving mill workers leave before daylight and return after dark. She was familiar with the rats, cockroaches, lice and disease that plagued their families.

The strikers had a strong spirit of class struggle. They sang, put on shows, dances, debates and parades.

The Lawrence strikers are remembered for inventing the moving picket line. Police had been arresting them for loitering--so they linked arms and formed a moving human chain that wove around the mills 24 hours a day, preventing scabs from getting in.

Flynn led meetings about the special oppression facing women and immigrants. Women led the picket lines and were better at intimidating scabs.

Cops threw the women in jail but they refused to pay the fines. As soon as they were released they returned to the picket lines.

One freezing morning, cops drenched the strikers with fire hoses. The women caught a cop on a bridge, stripped off his uniform and nearly succeeded in throwing him into the icy river. One lawyer commented, "One policeman can handle 10 men, while it takes 10 police to handle one woman."

The children grew weak as the strike continued into February and March. Flynn gathered food and set up soup kitchens.


Arrangements were made for hundreds of children to be sent to the homes in other cities for the duration of the strike. This drew national and international publicity, and donations began to pour in.
The cops responded by attacking women and children at the train station so the children couldn't leave. Cops clubbed them, threw them into a heap and dragged them into military trucks, clubbing them again if they cried out.

They beat one pregnant women so hard she had a miscarriage. That was the turning point. The national and international outcry forced Congress to open an investigation.
The pressure on the bosses built.

THE BETTER THINGS IN LIFE

On March 14, the strikers won a 25-percent raise for the lowest-paid workers and smaller increases for higher-paid workers, time-and-a-quarter pay for overtime, and no discrimination against strikers.

Too many people forget that their ancestors weren't Vanderbilts, Rockefellers, or Roosevelts.  They lived in tenements on top of each other and had uncles and aunts they never knew about because they died too young to make the first census.

Being from Mass, you probably remember Railroad Salvage. My mother used to work for them in Connecticut and was fired because she was trying to organize a union. I remember her holding union meetings at our house.

Well, not very well in the state of California. I suppose we can thank the Governator for that. Thankfully next year he won't be able to run again. (However, on his good side I do praise him for his remarks about the firefighters being able to effectively battle the current wildfires. On last check, the Station Fire was 60% contained, and full containment is expected a week from now.)

Oh Lord, I wish I could give you Karma. ;D

Today was Jason's first day of pre-school.  It was only for a half-hour to get the kids used to everything, but he had a blast!  He got really sad when we had to leave, so I took him to the park for a bit and explained that we would be coming back five times a week for the next 9 months or so. :D

I had a great time in LA... I got pics with Daryl Chill Mitchell (he was in Galaxy Quest and ED and is in the new series Brothers on Fox) & Michael Strahan (he's some sort of football player or something.)  He's also in Brothers.  Then I got a pic with Carl Weathers! Yep- Apollo Creed. My friend snapped while I was in mid sentence so I look like I'm about to kiss him or something  ;D  (he's in the same show.)

I got a pic with Kevin Michael Richardson- voice of Cleavland Jr on Family Guy and the new Cleavland show... then I got a pic with him again this time with Kevin and with Mike Henry.... so Cleavland Jr and SR


and I got a pic with the Teacher from glee and one with the jock/choir boy as well..... whatever their names are. those are on my friends camera tho so who knows when I'll get them... hopefully not as long as it took to get the Shemar Moore pics  ;D

that's the point I was thisclose to him but didn't get to meet him he got rushed away... I was close enough to shake hands with him...

if it helps he was nice to the people before me who got a chance to interact with him... it wouldn't have been so bad if there were others waiting but I was the last one so Im thinking one more minute wouldn't have hurt their precious schedule....whatever...

he's very tall...

Community is kind of fun but a bit uneven... I'm going to give it a chance tho and I'm hoping it finds a following because if it becomes popular or well rec'd then there will be another event for it and I will get another chance at meeting Joel.

I'll probably check out Community at least once...so you didn't even get to talk to him? I thought maybe you just didn't get a pic.  I hate it when their "handlers" tell them it's time to go and they just follow like a zombie and do what they're told.  He seems cool though, so if you get to meet him again you can tell him you're mad at him for standing you up last time you saw him...that'll strike up an interesting conversation!  ;)

As for me:  I've been fighting a cold this past week.  Some days I feel better then others.  Today is one of my bad days, I feel so drained.  I was planning on doing laundry, and I'm not sure that I could make it up to the second floor then down to the basement dragging the laundry bag behind me.  Not that energetic.  I've also lost my SIMS 3 disk, it's probably amongst my hubby's computer desk stuff.  I just am waiting for some kind of energy bolt to strike so that I can get started on stuff I need to do.  Blah.

Went to the State Fair and "worked" the booth for Vermont Freedom to Marry-which this year was mainly to say "Thanks". Just like last year, there really wasn't much in the way of "work" to do. There was only one person who came up while we were there. But, we had a nice chat with the guy who "worked" the booth with us. After, we walked around the fair. We stopped and talked to the "teabag" party booth. The guy impressed both of us with his knowledge about Labor History-and of course Carlos was in his glory having a wonderful conversation. (Actually, we think he was more of a Ron Paul supporter than a "Teabagger".) When we were ready to leave, we shook hands and exchanged names. Come to find out, he met Carlos a long time ago and he said, "You changed my life." He was trying to get credit for some course he took and Carlos had to validate whether he was knowledgeable in the subject (which he was). The guy told us that he then went on to law school and became a lawyer. I thought it was so cool how my husband had touched someone like that. The guy said, "I thought you looked familiar."

We looked at some of the photos. Mine are just as good as some of them-and some of them even better. And I have no idea who did the judging because the ones with ribbons weren't all that-and some that were really good, didn't have ribbons.  ???  I'm thinking, maybe next year, I should submit a few of my photos.

After a quick look around the fair, we went downtown. There was a new/old Chinese restaurant that we wanted to try. (It was an old one under new ownership. Don't know how the old one survived for more than 40 years or so because I went to it ONCE a long time ago and it was basically  8-P so I never went back. Carlos also told me that he want to it ONCE. ) A few doors down from it, Carlos went into a frame shop which surprised me. The owned said, "Hi, Charlie." I was wondering who he was. Then he looked up and realized that it was Carlos' ex-son-in-law. We talked for a bit. He asked us about Andy.  :\'( :\'(  (For those of you who don't know, this was the guy who dropped Andy off at our house.) He said that he thinks about him from time to time. He also said that he sells other people's photos. That is an idea. Maybe I will put a few of my photos in there. What harm could it do? Of course, if I sell one-will that make me a professional?

Then it was on to dinner. The new ownership was so much better. The food (which was Chinese & Vietnamese-we tried the Vietnamese stuff) was VERY yummy. We were the only ones in there since it was only something like 4:00. Had excellent service-except for the fact that he forgot to give us utensils. lol. It was kind of hard to eat soup without a spoon. lol

After, we went to Sears to pick up our new range hood. YAY!! Then it was time to come home.  :)

Sometimes that does happen....
Met Chris Sarandon......He acted like He was VERY disinterested in being at the convention...
He was at another one about a year & a half later...a Friend wanted to get an autograph...I told Him "Don't bother He was a real D@#k the last time I met Him"
Sarandon heard Me & said "When was I a D@#k to You?"...I told Him....Then He apologized ...He gave My Friend to autographed pics free.......








I'll probably check out Community at least once...so you didn't even get to talk to him? I thought maybe you just didn't get a pic.  I hate it when their "handlers" tell them it's time to go and they just follow like a zombie and do what they're told.  He seems cool though, so if you get to meet him again you can tell him you're mad at him for standing you up last time you saw him...that'll strike up an interesting conversation!  ;)

Lucky you!

I love Medium. 

As for me:  I've been fighting a cold this past week.  Some days I feel better then others.  Today is one of my bad days, I feel so drained.  I was planning on doing laundry, and I'm not sure that I could make it up to the second floor then down to the basement dragging the laundry bag behind me.  Not that energetic.  I've also lost my SIMS 3 disk, it's probably amongst my hubby's computer desk stuff.  I just am waiting for some kind of energy bolt to strike so that I can get started on stuff I need to do.  Blah.



Feel better Patty,you'll have a better day.  :)

All day yesterday, Carlos has been feeling down in the dumps because of one of his daughters (which is a LONG story-he is trying to work things out with her but doesn't know if it will happened). Then, last night he got a phone call from granddaughter #2. She just basically talked his ear off. At one point, he gave the phone to me. I couldn't understand half of what she was saying but she was just jabbering on and on and on. It was a good thing she was doing all the talking because I don't think I could have talked because I was laughing so hard that my stomach hurt. Carlos did talk to his daughter (not the one he is having problems with) & son-in-law which just boosted his spirits. We now have a sure cure for depression-talk to granddaughter #2.  ;D ;D ;D

If it makes you feel any better, I have zero comments on my soundclick page.  I can see that a couple of my songs made the top how ever many and I have 8.000 some views. You'd think someone could have said something about something.  One of the reasons I stopped writing parodies was lack of and a couple of times, no comments.  No one says anything to me at youtube either.

I am sorry to hear that. If I had accounts with either of those sites, I would make some comments for you. The thing is with Flickr, I have been promoting my photos-putting them into groups so many people can see them. Some groups have a "Post 1, Comment on 5" rule. You would think that I would get a couple. I know there are people who are looking at some of my photos. There is one that has over 800 hits to it (but only 26 comments and 7 favored).

Anyway, karma to you.

I'm very happy to hear that it went well, but sorry to hear that they had to remove some lung.  Sounds like he is going to be ok though, which is the most important part.



Work has been crazy and I STILL don't have my laptop back (don't even think Sam's had a chance to look at it), but other than that, things are good.  Today was the Vendor Show.  Companies that do business with the university come and show off their products.  They usually give away pens, bags or some other small item (not all do, but most).  It's like Halloween for adults.  ;)  There are usually raffles where you put in tickets, but they did it differently this year using bingo.  Don't think I have much chance, but I did it anyway.  There also weren't as many individual raffles from the vendors as there were last year.  Think it is a sign of the times (Michigan's unemployment rate is the highest in the country at 15.2% and is expected to hit 15.8)

He was.  Although I don't think it was an excessive amount of smoking.  He lived a couple hours away from me so I'd only get to see him and his family every couple months or so.  Now we just have to get my mom fixed up (she is desperately needing her gall bladder taken out.  It's been bothering her since before her heart surgery last Christmas, but the heart surgery was more urgent so they put off the gallbladder surgery.)  The time has come for her to get it done though since she's been getting sick every day now lately.  I told her she'll feel better afterwards (I know I did when I had mine taken out about 4 years ago).

Today is Apple Fest in the park. We will probably take a walk over after my hair dries (since it isn't even a block from here-I hear the music from it as I am typing this).

James had a soccer match this morning.  He played a good game, but his team lost the match.  The goalkeeper appeared afraid of the ball at times.

Elizabeth is playing soccer at the moment, then Dai is taking her and some friends to ice-skating.

I am taking James to get his hair cut.  Last week I wanted to take him to get it done on Saturday but he insisted it was fine.  Dai offered to take him on Sunday when he got his hair cut but James didn't want to.  This morning he demanded we took him because his hair is "much too long" !  ::)

I had it- had to have surgery... before that I was taking lots of anti inflammatories

But I don't want surgery and taking aspirin won't help for me.I put some cold ice and it helped a little,maybe I'll try a hot compress and see if that'll work.

Howard carpal tunnel is not just from computers.  A Beautician, Barber, Painter, Surgeon or anyone else who works with there hands all the time can obtain carpal tunnel.  One can get carpal tunnel from any repetitive use of the hands....  AND FROM THAT STATEMENT I just realized I should not go any farther! :-X

Monteray Jack
Muenster - which is an all time fave of most
Colby
Brick- which is a fave of mine
Sharp Cheddar - which is  :P to mee
Med. Cheddar - again not a fave of mine
Mild Cheddar - still :P
Brie - LOVE IT (at room temp)
Gouda - LOVE IT
Provolone - yummy
Mozzerella - usually yummy
Cream Cheese - neh
Blue Cheese - some are definitely better than others
Swiss - only good on a ham and swiss - or rueben
Romano -neh
Parmesan - meh
Fresh Mozzerella - good
Roquefert - some good
Feta - like it in salads
American - BLAH
Chevre - not bad with fruit

Also, my mom isn't totally better, since she has been coughing for the past couple of days, but both my parents are starting to get better. I, for one, am just glad that I haven't been sick at all lately. In fact, I've been quite healthy this year. :)

I had a kidney stone operation once, they zapped it. So painful. I got an injection of morphine before hand, and it did NOTHING to take away the pain.
My nurse at emerg said that kidney stone pain is worse than labor pain (She's had 2 stones and 3 kids...stones were much more painful)

Well, I just made more work for myself, but since it couldn't be helped, I'll just bask in my success.  I was recently told that I have to take on the scanning and report producing part of their faculty assessment.  I had to create 2 forms for Kendall College (who are sometimes a part of Ferris and sometimes not depending on whether it suits their needs) and I just got blank ones from them (their campus is an hour south of ours) to test the forms I created.  They worked and the reports generated look good (and accurate!).  My supervisor and boss are very pleased.  Kendall better be happy with it!  ;)

http://images.smh.com.au/2009/09/23/748004/neutral-bay-before-after-600x400.jpg


Sydneysiders woke to a red dawn this morning as a thick dust storm caused havoc with transport and raised health fears.

The size of the dust cloud covered half of NSW.

initial estimates showed the dust plume stretched 600 kilometres along the NSW coast from Sydney to the Queensland border this morning, dumping up to 75,000 tonnes of dust per hour into the Tasman Sea.

The reason for the dust is we had some really strong winds in the inland areas of NSW and in South Australia for a sustained period yesterday. That's lifted a whole lot of dust off the ground because it's quite dry out there as many of those areas are still drought affected.

The dust had been carried by the winds into Sydney at a distance of about 1500 kilometres  :o

initial estimates showed the dust plume stretched 600 kilometres along the NSW coast from Sydney to the Queensland border this morning, dumping up to 75,000 tonnes of dust per hour into the Tasman Sea.

The reason for the dust is we had some really strong winds in the inland areas of NSW and in South Australia for a sustained period yesterday. That's lifted a whole lot of dust off the ground because it's quite dry out there as many of those areas are still drought affected.

The dust had been carried by the winds into Sydney at a distance of about 1500 kilometres  :o

Wow that's pretty scary and quite unusual Moo!   :o
I should say so! In fact I heard about it on the news this morning. :o :P

Also, while the Station Fire in north Los Angeles is pretty much close to full containment, another one has sparked up closer to where I'm at. But I'm pretty far away from it, so it doesn't affect me a great deal. I'm talking about a wildfire that sparked up between Moorpark and Fillmore, two localities in north/central Ventura County. Some authorities say that the Moorpark-Fillmore fire (altho I'm drawing a blank on its official name right now) had erupted by means of spontaneous combustion of manure, since that area does contain farmland.

Me? No. I do not like to endure the intense heat; I dealt with a great deal of it growing up in Los Angeles. I'm currently in Ventura County (to the immediate west of L.A.) and I live a few miles from the ocean and we do get some heat, but thankfully we never see triple-digits (on the Farenheit scale, that is). And when we do get a heatwave, it doesn't last more than a week. But I HIW the Santa Ana winds come in.

The joys of being a grandparent have turned into both Tim & I thinking we were having heart attacks last night...Dan (Missy's boyfriend) works from 2:30-11:00 then gets home and gets up with Daniel in the night (Missy claims she doesn't hear him) apparently this routine is starting to get on his nerves and the last few weeks he has said some really bad things to and about the baby(calling him retarded because he dropped his bottle,saying he might not be the dad) So we thought it was for the best that Missy come home for a while and they could see each other on the weekends like they did last year. Missy said that she wanted to give Dan time to think about how he really feels.He wasn't home more than 2 minutes and he was calling crying that he wanted to talk to Missy that he loved her & Daniel and didn't mean anything,,Where was Missy hanging out with her friend April (who also has a baby) writing crap on her MySpace saying she is single.I think April had a lot to do with this (the father of April's baby does not want him) I tried to explain to her that she was still dating Dan
Then last night she still is at April's she calls about 8:30 and says they are coming to get Daniel and go shopping, neither Tim nor I thought it was a good idea, but there was no reasoning with her,she just yelled "it's my baby I'll do what I want with my baby" She picks him up at 9:15 and says she'll be gone from a couple of hours, Somewhere around 11:00 I feel asleep, next thing I know the phone is ringing it's Dan(who has made several attempts to talk to Missy) I tell him she is at Wal-Mart and notice it is now 11:50 call Missy she says they are eating..12:30 call again, they are back at Wal-Mart..1:30 call again by this time my nerves are gone and I'm screaming at her bring the baby home.."OK I'll bring him home,Dan is coming to get him tomorrow but I don't want to talk to him"3:00 still no baby and now 8:00 still no baby, her phone conveniently turned off...Bad chest pains all night,Tim first thing this morning says he thought he was having a heart attack last night.

thanks Cat. day after day, I'm getting better
thanks anabel, I am feeling better after staying in bed for 3 days
thanks Q, I think I'm getting better. I ate 2 turkey burgers so I have a good appetite
thanks Amanda, feeling better even as I post



good appetite is a good thing although its hard to tell if that means you're getting better... I'm the only person I know who gets sick for an extended period of time and gains weight....everyone else seems to lose their appetite I gain one and a few other people's as well  ;D

Tomorrow night is my 20 year high school reunion.  At furst I didn't want to go, but the closer it gets the more excited I get.  I don't know why....guess I am just weird.


I felt the same way I barely remember people I went to high school with and the reunion was on a weekend I couldn't get off from work. I thought I didn't care about missing it until I saw all the pics (damn some of those girls looked old!)


forgot to add that we're doing a makeshift all years reunion on Oct 17th I plan to attend that tho I don't know how many people I will actually know.

I know they are only thinking of themselves, Missy claims she was afraid that Dan may get upset at Daniel and hurt him, but 2 days later she is letting him take him for a few days :-\\ Tim & I are worried that his side of the family may want to keep him and not bring him back.
Missy says we are idiots that they all have jobs so know one could watch him, so know I have to wait for Dan (21) to get the playpen and clothes and find out what is going on. I know I've heard little comments from Dan putting Missy down, telling her she is lazy and that she needs to earn her own money. (how did he plan on this when no one is available where he lives to babysit) to make things worse Missy & Dan have borrowed over $1,000 from my sister to help get a trailer and a used car(they didn't get either) and Missy says she doesn't know what Dan did with the money. >:(
I should let them work things out and not interfere but my mind is swirling, because I know that deep down they both care about each other. I know it may sound bad but there are times I wish that we could have custody of Daniel, but I've got to let them try to be parents, I just don't want DanDan getting hurt.

We told Missy that she and the baby can live with us till she straightens everything out.
We don't know what Missy is up too, Dan just picked up Daniel, but told Tim that Missy was not there, but left the baby >:( and went to another friends house. I just called that friend and she hasn't seen Missy in 4 months, but Missy asked if she wanted to come over tonight, Missy is not answering her phone and either is her friend April.
Tim talked to Dan on the phone and he said he did not agree to breakup that Missy wont even talk to him >:( >:( >:( >:(
Tim says he has has enough and if Missy doesn't straighten out I'm to tell her she can't live with us or he will leave..I'm having numbness in my feet,chest & neck pains, I hope it's just an anxiety attack.

I would like Missy to stay here, but she is pushing everyone away (except for the idiot April) Maybe she is tired of being a mommy and wants to hang with friends :-\\. We told her she should try to get back in school and see Dan on the weekends, she agreed till she went to April's now she wont come home.

Take care ninny

Right now I'm so upset, Missy called and said she text Dan ans asked when he was bringing Daniel back, he told her maybe Monday maybe never, that he was thinking of getting a babysitter and keeping him during the week and only letting Missy see him on the weekend. Bullsheesh Tim & I have raised him for the 4months, then during the summer we had him every other week, we are the ones who take him to the doctor and to his W.I.C. appts..he is our whole life.

I've ended up not feeling good at all today.  The good news is that a request to MJC to mial my transcript,  mial? (see snozberries I'm not making it up, I'm my letters mixed up)  anyway, I'm hoping The Department Of Rehabilitation can help me find a job or something.  It's also good I came back to the Smite Club and like I mentioned, will watch my spelling.

From Wensday-  Donnie, my adviser. wanted me to do a jigsaw puzzle.  So mom gets a puzzle and the asks me if I remember how to do a puzzle" yes" how many corners are there?  * God, did she just ask me that?*  I went ahead and answered four at the time, I was in way to much shock to be smart with her.

The puzzle has been hard for me and I've already spent at least five hours on it without even being able to connect one of the sides. I don't know if somethings wrong with my head or somethings really bothering me, or both.

Ooh how did I almost forget this?  I told God that this is the last time I want to go in the depression loop.  I think I'll take a bus ride away from the house in the morning and do some thinking.

I do as soon as I have a talk with God and go to sleep.  Thanks  for the good hope.  It hasn't been easy all my life and it's not going to be easy putting an end to it.  Or maybe there is no exact it to put an end to, but I'm tired of feeling misrible in the house, having no confidence in myself and not sure what to do with miself, and no desire to do anything.  So although feeling better I say aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Maybe you overdid it at the weekend and had a minor relapse?





The schools are closed for the Yom Kippur holiday today. So we are going to the Big E - state fair type thing with some friends.



Haven't been to the Big E in decades. Used to live in W. Springfield & Chicopee and I remember they used to let us take one day off of school to go to it. That was a legitimate excuse for not being in school during that time. I don't know if they still do that or not.

Had a wonderful weekend (minus leaving my keys at work so I couldn't get in over the weekend to do class stuff).  Saturday went to a jazz clinic (no, I don't play) and this FSU student got a private lesson w/ 2 premiere jazz musicians (we were the only ones who showed up and he was the only one who brought an instrument).  I got to see Marcus (took him a minute to recognize me then told me I was getting younger), meet Charlie Gabriel and meet Marcus' wife Joan (she is beyond awesome).  Before the hour was over, Joan had given me their email and both their cell phone numbers.  Saturday night was the concert with those 3 and a few of their band members.  It was fantastic (too short, but amazing).  Micah even got to go up by the stage (not on) and shake a moracca during one of the songs (they had already talked to her while they were on stage, so at that point everyone there knew who she was by the time Joan waved her up).  I took pics of that (they are kind of dark b/c I didn't want my flash to go off) and we got a bunch of pics after the show.  We also got a free CD and Charlie invited me to join them for dinner after the gig.  It was so amazing.  I can tell you after all the stories I heard that I hope Ray Charles is on the next flight I'm on!!!!  I also got permission from Joan to use her song "Excitable" as the song my husband and I have our first dance to if I ever get married.  :)

Micah came over yesterday to go over the stuff that Jess sent us--thanks, Jess!  Somehow, based on the little information Micah gave me, Jessica was able to pinpoint the exact restaurant that Micah wants to eat lunch at on Saturday when we get to Chicago.  The best part is that Jess and the Boy (and hopefully Rice) are going to meet us there at 1:00 and have a mini-meet.  I am SO excited.  Micah specifically told me to beg Jess to bring him because she loves kids.  I'm putting new batteries in my camera.

Once I get my laptop back I will see where my photobucket/posting directions are and get the pics in the Say Cheese thread.

Take out all the emotion and sit down together and do a quick risk analysis....write down the pros and cons and then make an informed decision.. Hopefully, this method (if done together) will provoke futher 'discussion' and the correct decision for you BOTH will fall out of that process somewhere.

Thanks Tim & I were hoping things would turn out better, but both are now in the childish backstabbing, name calling stage.

ninny......this is probably going to go over not so well with the children but is there anyway you and tim could petition for temporary custody on the grounds the kids are too immature to raise a child.

I looked  up some info on the internet, and it said if the parents don't sign over the child, you have to prove abuse, negligence.

A grandparent with whom the child lives or who has the notarized consent of the child’s parents may petition the circuit court for temporary relative custody of a grandchild. This proceeding may be considered when the parent is unable to care for the child due to drug or alcohol abuse, incarceration, financial instability, mental health issues, responsibilities related to work or the military. At the hearing the judge will decide whether the grandparent should care for the child. The court will also consider the objections of the child’s parents. If it is in the child’s best interest and if the parents do not object, the court will award custody to the grandparent

The problem with us is that they can say that I'm disabled and not well enough to take care of him, also Tim has got garnishments in his paycheck.

Banquet makes some great stuff that is specifically designed for the crock pot....some of them are especially wonderful in the winter--like my fave, Chicken and Dumplings (the dumplings are actually just flat pasta, but still delicious).  There is also stew as well as other varieties.  Those are the extent of my crock pot adventures, though I do want to make beef barley soup and other things in it.

bangers and mash?  or my personal favorite-named dish (even though it's more-or-less leftovers done up in a hash (is my understanding)  Bubble and squeak!  I just love that name.  lol


I never heard of Bubble & Squeak until just a few months ago. Carlos made it and man, was it YUMMY!!!!

I first heard it years ago in an episode of a British sit-com called "Mullberry", and it sounded so exotic that I wanted to try it ever since.  It wasn't until months later that I found out what it actually was and conveniently discovered that that was what mom has been making for years, although we just called it leftovers.  Somehow it sounds better with a cute name.  :-\\

Ah yes, I've only had them in really nice sit-down pub/restaurants.  Can't say that it's something very easy to find at the supermarkets (even the giant ones)  :(

Just had an e-mail from someone on the PTO.  I am one of only four people who volunteered to help run the school store this year and they are looking for a chair for the committee.  I am chairing one group and co-chairing another.  Can I take on another one?  :-\\

I can teach you to make that with either the flat dumplings or the big and fluffy ones.  It's actually really simple.

If I provide my mom's recipe (I think you'll like it, I know I love it), will you try it in the crock pot and invite me out? (she uses a regular HUGE pot and cooks it on the stove)

;D 8) ::)
