I'm so very sorry for your loss. She was beautiful and I hope your wonderful memories will begin to replace the loss you feel right now. You've done the most difficult but also the most loving thing for Akyra. Run free beautiful girl!

I hope Kenya continues to feel better. Sassy is one that'll chew up anything she can get her teeth on. Just last night I dropped a cloth eyeglass holder on the floor and before I could blink, she was chewing it up. She's approx. 9 or 10, so you'd think this behavior would've stopped by now, but it hasn't :(

Liesje - I hope things start to turn around for you. Having the puppy for a few days should bring some smiles. Barbara - I'm sorry your daughter is going thru such a rough time. It must be hard to watch her going through this and especially the lack of a job. Cita - I am so totally agreement with you. Unless there's some other compelling reason to move in with the inlaws, it sounds like you'd be better off staying where you're at. Yay - TGIF!! I really enjoyed my day off yesterday

I suppose telling you this shows how sad my life is LOL[/quote] Hey, I for one appreciate the info. I like greek yogurt too but usually buy what's on sale and it's never the good stuff. maggiesmommy - you have definitely had a bad morning. I suggest

Happy belated 49th Birthday !! Chicken wings and Ceasar salad sound perfect to me. I miss my dad on my birthday too and just about every other day of the year.

Oh yes, she definitely goes well with the fall colors. Her pretty little ears look so soft, I just want to reach thru the screen and touch them.

Raining here too. Of course it had to start right as I was heading in to the gym. It's brrr cold too (for here) and makes me wish I was at home curled up with a blankie. My former coworker/friend emailed me back to say she's off today because of the furloughs and we'll talk Monday. She did say it was regarding a job, so that should be interesting. I'd love to work with her again but the idea of being in the thick of things around the capitol doesn't sound enticing. I spent almost

Thanks for the great update and it's wonderful to hear how you're all enjoying this time together.

Jackie - that clip is great and I'd love to put something similar on my VM. Our students are older, so it's not the parents that drive me crazy but the students sure do. I decided to play hooky today and called in sick. I think I've probably done that only once or twice in the 5+ years I've had this job. I'm really excited about having a day with nothing to do.

That's wonderful news!!
