what s up fellas......

I was very surprised this morning....I was cuddling with my cat.....she doesnt go outside.....when I felt a small bump on the back on her head.....I checked it and found a tick on the back on her head........I was able to get it out fully....then squeezed it and flushed it down the toilet....now I am wondering where the heck my cat got that thing from....lol

anyone in the house could have brought it in on their clothing. Make sure you check her all over for anymore and give her a bath.

My furry babe stood outside the bathroom door meowing the whole time I was in the shower this morning. Not sure if she wanted one too or just felt left out!

Good morning, friends! Hope this finds all doing great! Busy week here, getting ready for No Child Left Behind tests (Benchmark Exams) next week. Gotta get to work early, but wanted to tell everyone have a good day before I left!

Good evening,

I know 5:30 will get here quickly, just winding down now. I don't even want to check to see if the Sox won, they were losing last I knew. I have had a rough couple days, my anxiety issues has raised its ugly head again, I doubled my prescription like my Dr suggested if I am having a tough go. I just feel like I am being crushed with no way to escape, I hate that feeling, because along with that I just want to not go anywhere and hide. I don't mean to sound selfish but please say a prayer for me to get through this quickly. Thank you.

Have a good night!

Ron

I will be praying. I hope all gets better for you!

And gorgeous attire it is, too! Is there a movie producer in town? Is there a remake of Lawrence of Arabia?

Wouldn't likely work. No doubt Carl would insist on renaming the movie "Carl of the 'Pines".

Hey! Beautiful morning here in central NC where the sun is shining, the birds are singing outside and the thermometer reads a pleasant for early April 53 degrees headed for the mid 70's by this afteroon.
(Now, if we could only get rid of that ubiquitous yellow pollen.....!)

To the count, post haste!
Days to the Season: 220
Days to Christmas Day: 262
Under 3 weeks now to the 200-Day Season window.
A day less than that to the 1/3 Christmas Day marker!
We just keep on marching along.

Have a Thrilling Thursday, my Friends.
Keep the comforting thought with you that tomorrow will be Weekend Eve once again!

I hope this finds you feeling better - will continue to pray for you!

Good morning! I hope this finds everyone well rested and ready to take on a new day.

Today is the Great Lakes Loons home opener and official start of the 2011 season. I have to decide by 3:30 if I am going or not. It will probably be yes, but my heart really isn't into it right now. My baseball buddy is going to be moving and this will no doubt be the last time we will do a game together. I have this horrible feeling that during the 7th inning stretch, I will start crying and won't be able to stop.

On a good note, I did catch up with my paperwork yesterday! Yay!! All in all, it wasn't a bad work day. Today will be spent going through boxes as I plan a pink and white display for one area of the booth and a Derby display for another. I have finally decided to sell the majority of my horse related items. The only one I will keep is the antique copper looking horse my dad won me at the local fair when I was 5. He won one for all of the girls, and mine is the only one that survived. I still love it!

Have an absolutely perfect Thursday, everyone!!!!!!!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wake up crown!!!!!!

We're all behind you, Ron. I hope you can draw strength from the many positive thoughts coming your way.

Maybe Binger will write the screenplay! He's had so much experience with operas ...

Good morning, Christmas friends. It is chilly and overcast here in northern California. Rain was forecast for last night, but not a drop. Around 5 a.m. this morning, someone's car horn started blaring for about three minutes; then someone sent us a fax for "LOW California Life Insurance Rates!!!" I have another physical therapy session late this afternoon. It is supposed to be my last, but we will see. Have a great day everyone!

As Binger says, "Wakey, wakey, Crown!"

Careful there, Merry.
Bing and I are still the gender mystery twins!

Oh! And thanks for the wake-ups, guys.
I'm awake as I've ever been!
(Hmmm...... Don't know if that's good or bad.)

Bradmac · Apr 7, 2011

Good Thursday afternoon, my Christmas friends!

It's another beautiful day here in GA, 75° and sunny. I love it!

Not much to report today. We are planning to have a family portrait done tomorrow afternoon. Always love having my picture taken. :-?

I hope you all have a great day! cheesy

I am there with you too, Ron. I more than understand what you mean. Anxiety has always been there waiting for me too. Will keep you in my prayers my dear Christmas friend.

Good afternoon Christmas family !! I finally manged to get a few hours of sleep. Last night was awful because I was so tired. I even started dozing off while I was typing !!! But I made it. Feeling a lot more refreshed and tonight is my Friday. Plus my company paid us EARLY !!!!! Not used to that.

I hope all are well.......and since Crown has said he/she is already awake, I won't try to give another wake up call !!!!!!!! I am looking forward to RELAXING tomorrow. I love Friday mornings because even though I am tired, I can sit back and say aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh !!!

Take care Christmas family xo

Afternoon all! I got off work early last night so I could put William to bed. That was nice! Today its pretty dead at work as well. Not much is new. Same old same old (as I'm sure it is for others!). Carl's new blend yesterday was rather exciting. He wouldn't tell me what was in it! Anyone know?? Have a great day all!! Remember...I'll be watching! haha
