    Glad Jackie posted the Clif notes version :)

    Congrats Courtney!!!  How exciting!  Details? 

    Glenda, hope your eye continues to get better.

    Cathy, glad Buffy wasn't the source of the gooey stuff, good thoughts to you nonetheless.

    We went to visit family over the weekend and came back on tuesday.... wouldn't you know we get right around the corner from home and have a fender bender at exactly the same place DH had one last year?  It's a terrible intersection, and both times was declared 100% liabilty on the other party (they had  stop signs and we didn't) but what a hassle.  Can't get into any shop around here until Sept 19 to get it fixed.  The guy who was crossing from little alley to little alley pulls out, DH sees him, lays on the horn and what does the guy do?  STOPS directly in front of us.  We have an imprint of his tire in our bumper.  Even the 3 police cars that responded said they absolutely won't cut across that intersection.  There's a light 100 ft away but heaven help anyone who goes to that corner.

    Yay for one more day of vacation still left :)

    Nicole that stinks about the accident :(

    So not that there is anyone here who doesn't know this, but Jackie & Deb are 2 of the most wonderful ladies ever!

    I have come home 2x to be surprised with packages waiting. Seriously you two are so fantastic. Just more proof of how amazing this board is and I feel so happy to be a part of it.

    Tonight was Hannah's open house for school. She was a little bummed at first bc she's going to a different school this year. But the teacher and one of the other Dads went out of their way to try and help her feel more comfortable, which I thought was nice. I'm thinking (hoping) that once she gets into the routine of it and people become familiar she'll be fine.

    CONGRATS Courtney!! Wow!

    I get to go out tonight and listen to DH and his buddies play at open mic night. Hopefully Willa will stop acting like a butt and go to sleep so my mom can get some sleep!

    So freaking pissed off.  Deposited money tonight via the ATM and went home to double check the balance and completed freaked out when realized that someone w/d $700 via an ATM.  Immediately called the bank and they said due to the strange amounts (there were two transactions with .44 and .98 on the end) most likely it was fraud done overseas.

    So they cancelled my debit cards and proceed to tell me that it is going to take 45 days to replace the $$.  WTF!!!  I said, if you can tell where the transaction came from and I can prove that I wasn't there why will it take 45 days.  This is an ATM transaction where you have to be there.  I am getting the run around.  So now I have to take off tomorrow morning and go the bank.  So annoyed and frankly cooking mad.

    He kept reassuring me that I have zero liability and the $$ will be replaced.  But I also assured him that due to them letting this freakish transaction go through I also have $700 less in my account.  Seriously!  I am so interested to find out where the transaction happened - they will know in the am. 

    I am also PO'd at DH since I KNOW this is his fault.  He took my card for gas and I specifically told him not to go to the 7-11 because they make you put in your pin number and that is the primary way pin numbers get snagged.  What did do, yep went to 7-11. 

    Now I am sooo worked up and its getting really late and I have to get up in a few hours since I have a big presentation tomorrow that I won't have enough time to work on in the am since I will be at the bank.    AAAHHHHHH!

    Thanks, everyone!!!!!! We are super excited. I kind of figured this was coming eventually, but I didn't think it would be on this trip, and I was totally surprised! I will post some pics once I get a hold of a camera cable and get photos off my camera! For now, we are run run running around!!
