Sounds like he's been reading the same book as my neighbor Doughboy: "DIY for Idiots... by Idiots"
Goood morning! I'm leavin' on a jet plane. Might get a chance to freep while I'm gone, might not. I'll be back Thursday evening. Have to bug out of here in about 30 to go pick up She-who-needs-ritalin.
Good morning and safe traveling!
I looked and unfortunately I don't have a picture of that part of the property. It's a steep bank, probably a 70 degree grade up 20 feet. These trees are small firs 8 inches in diameter that are all in a row halfway up it.
It's been around for quite a while...BUT this COULD be a new variant...so maybe! I haven't heard of any new infected systems today. Keepin' my fingers crossed...
Sounds like you guys caught what I had...
Wait, how does that work?
Ya know...I LIKE that movie, I really do (though I like the Broadway soundtrack better...), but I didn't need that song stuck in my head today.
Especially since I'm worrying about heating bills and such. *sigh*
Lil, did you post a picture of your outfit?? What does it look like??
Oh, I hope I caught her before she left, I'm dying to hear about this new outfit!
Goodness Hair, you are up early early this a.m.!
Yep, I am bonafide sick, Rosie. I think I got it off your music CD! LOL Just kidding, but wouldn't that be a hoot? I actually got it from Matthew, who had it over the weekend and he never came in contact with your music CD.
Good morning!
~sip~
I am up early. Had to let the horses out. They were inside last night 'cuz it's rainin. And now I am awake :~D
Sorry you're sick.... I was just thinking it's been a really long time since I've been sick.
So far I'm not horrible sick...
Speaking of animal husbandry, I gotta put the night light out with the chickens today. It's starting to get dark so early now and egg production has indeed slacked off. Plus, the young ladies should start laying any time now, Rosabelle has begun that squatting business.
I don't think I've seen pics of the new chickens all grown up.... Portraits please!
I wasn't sick when I mailed the CD! I claim innocence! ;-)
Zinc, lemon tea, rest.
That is all we can ever hope for!
Indeed!
Well, right now I'm enjoying a vanilla coffee. I didn't hear Steve bring it in the room this morning, but woke to the smell of it. Was actually dreaming I had a cup! LOL
It is ~official~ there will be no football in the Stormhands' household this fall. Jr. is prolly still asleep but the wife talked to the guidance counselor this morning.
He said that the school just copied that page from the rule book and he admitted it was poorly worded. But he said the official rule is that for fall sports it's five credits for the preceeding year.
So, now we start the damage control. It's a hard lesson, but maybe this is his wake up call.
Poor kid. I really feel for him.
I was much the same way as him, knowing what I loved but didn't see the consequences of my actions affecting it...didn't make me bad or lazy or stupid...it was just my personality, in hind sight...at the time I believed I was bad, stupid and lazy.
I really feel for him.
Did I ever tell you that my senior year, I had a term paper due? If I didn't finish it, I would FAIL my senior year?
I went faithfully to the library, did the research (the paper was over Elizabeth I and how her childhood influenced her reign.) I never wrote the paper.
The day before it was due, my teacher saw my mom on campus and told her. My mom met me at the auditorium (I had drama practice) with a STACK of books and we went home and I wrote the paper. Took me all night. Made a B on it.
I just had a disconnect between doing the paper and the consequences of not doing it.
