My goodness!! where is everybody!!! normally there are like two pages by the time I pop in!

Linda I will swap the weather with you!!!! It was 43*C here yesterday.....that's approx. 109*F for you guys!!! I am sooooooo pleased I was at work yesterday in air con! It was 38*C when I got home last night around 7.00pm!! we did get a brief (and lovely) storm around 11.00pm which cooled things down a bit thank goodness. Another hot out there but not as bad yesterday I don't think. LOL! I will poke my nose out at lunchtime to see!! hahha!

Hope you had a great time with your little ones Linda and hope Cameran wasn't too sick poor baby!!

Hello to everyone else that may pop in, hope you all have a great evening. I am off to grab a coffee before I start my RL work!! :)
 
Hello everybody! Cold here too.
I finally went to the doctor today!! He was like, "you've had this since when?" But now I'm taking antibiotics, and have some codeine cough syrup for night time as well, so that's good!
Hey, not sure if they still have it, but earlier today Amazon was selling a one TB EHD for less than $100. I bought one, and now I have to be soooo careful with the budget till the first of the year, but.. Man. I was going to buy one when I got my grant money, but who says it'll still be that cheap whenever my grant money comes in? A TERRA BITE! If I feel like I need more space than that, I should really just stop it.

Poor Chris, she's having her second tough day in a row by the looks of things on FB, and the fact that she hasn't been here today. ((((DISTANCE HUGS))))

Hope everybody is feeling chipper!
 
Hi girlies! Sorry I've not been around much these last 2 days. Yesterday it was just a bad Monday and today it is because I've been working on getting my own store ready for a Thursday opening ;) hehehehehehehe

Anyway! Work today was pretty simple. I just designed a few collages and christmas cards to send in with other orders. Then I did some cleaning in the studio. I have 5 kids coming in on Sat. 3 are under 2yrs ;)

Tonight I plan to spend time in the gallery and maybe working on the DS challenge.


Linda I hope your little man feels better tomorrow and that you'll get to see him!

Ona we had snow here yesterday, but today it is just cold and rainy, (I don't think you want this weather, and I don't know if I would want to fry in over 100degree weather...though if it meant I was in Australia I might suffer the heat!!!)

Andrea I hope you feel better with the antibiotics! And woot for a deal! (I need to get me a couple TB drives.)
 
Hey ladies! I would have been here earlier but I was grounded. I had to finish my studid work classes. Hazardous materials in the work place, Violence at Work and Privacy something or other. All done. No more classes until next year. Although now I have to get started on my continuing education classes for my certification. So starting in the beginning of the year I have to get on that. Linda...you have to help me with that. I have to do a class a week until I am caught up. I have 7 magazines with 2 classes each in them, so 14 classes, plus a few more magazines will come in before my time is up. Blah!! So, I just have to pick a day and do it. Probably Thursday since that is the day that miss annoying provider that orders too many x-rays in general isn't here. Not that they take that long. I mean how hard is it to copy a test out of a magazine then sit with it and go through a magazine article looking for the answers that are in order through the article. I am very lame and such a procrastinator. BAD CLARA!! But I got it done and still have my job.

I still cannot believe how sick Ethan was yesterday. It was so bad and so fast. AS fast as it came it was gone too. He got really sick then slept until noon and then was fine. Then he kicked me out of the house to get him some chicken noodle soup. He has been asking me to leave him home alone for a few weeks now and this was his big opportunity. It was pretty cute. Of course, he's only 7 and in my mind still way to little to really be left home alone, but that doesn't mean I can't give him the illusion of being home alone. So I got an extra phone from my neighbor so that Ethan could call if he needed anything and had my neighbor available to check on him if he needed anything and knew that she was going to be home the whole time and he could go over there at anytime if he needed anything, got sick, scared or lonely. So, I ran off to get his soup that he wanted and came back and the house was empty. I went next door to fetch him. This cracks me up. We received a package and he had to tell someone so he went next door to let them know that we received a package. So he was just sitting there waiting for me to get home. I thought it was funny.

My kids are as comfortable there as they are at my house. On Thanksgiving Addie took off. Don't get me wrong, my kids don't just go running off from my house and go wandering the neighborhood but they do both leave and go to the neighbors house. If we can't find them that's it just where they are. We are usually pretty good about locking the front door so that Addie can't get out without letting us know but when we have a lot of people over that is not always the case. So, on Thanksgiving we all hanging out and I noticed Addie wasn't in the near vicinity so I told Derek he needed to go next door to get Addie. I didn't even think about it. I had already asked Ethan to see if she was upstairs and she wasn't so that was the only other place she would be. So Derek went over and got. They said she had gone over, sat down at the table as they were about to eat so they made her a plate of food and so she started eating. My mom was so upset. She wanted us to talk to her and tell her how scary it was that she ran off, which we used to do, but now it is so far beyond that. So I told her grandma didn't like it when she ran off when she was there. Our neighbor's house is a part of our house in her mind. I can't change that. My silly mom. She'd had a lot of wine at that point too so I wasn't really about to try and explain anything to her. But I found it kind of amusing.

OKay...I'm feeling better today. I'm back to random rambling. whew. I felt like I was rambling very strangely over the past few days. Just off a little bit. I hate it when my meds are off. I feel off. Yucky feeling. Okay, gonna do my personals in a seperate posting.
 
LindaW - Yay for Savanna being back with her Nana! Poor little C. give him some sugars from me. I hope he's feeling better than my little guy did yesterday.

Ona - I'll let you keep your hot weather and I'll keep my freezing cold, yet snowless weather here. I hate the heat. I start getting cranky at about 85F (30C). I do not envy you even a little bit. I think if I lived in Australia I would definately have to live by the water or I wouldn't be able to make it. Is all of Australia hot like that or only parts of it. Enjoy your AC!!

Andrea - I don't blame you for not seeing the doctor. Before I got released from madigan I would do everything I could to not see the doctor. A trip to the doctor was an all day even instead of just an errand. On the other hand you've been sick forever lady!! How long did you have to spend there between the pharmacy, labwork and possibly x-rays?? The pharmacy is always the worst. I assume Bragg is just as crazy as Lewis when it comes to the hospital. I am so thankful I was able to get released for my care, but with everything going on with Gen I'm sure it is easier for you to stay on post for that isn't it? Those clinics you deal with are probably much smaller than say Family practice and their 5 teams for 25K+ people. That is an awesome deal on the EHD!! Give us the link for that will ya??

Elisa - so you wanna do our photos out here? We went to walmart last night just to get a quick set of pics of Addie done. They are outrageously priced, the people are kinda rude and the little things they do to the pics are kinda strange. They put a pink vignette around one of the pics and thought it looked cute and when I said it didn't...she left it. Then she was trying to sell me a collage for $30. Like that was going to happen. I just didn't want to spend all that money on school pics, ya know?? So, when you come out here next labor day for DMB you can do my kids school pics, right? :)

Oh, and everyone needs to come check out Elisa's new store opening on Thursday because it is definately The Best of What's Around!!
 
Clara that is so funny about your kids and the neighbors. They even gave her a plate of food! hehe Too cute!

I hope today Ethan is a lot better. (When I get packages in the mail I HAVE to tell someone too ;) )

As for pictures! Yes I'll take them! Wish I could really go out there. I've never been to Washington or a DMB concert!!! (My brother would probably want to come too. He really wants to see him live.)

Woot woot! Need to make The Best of What's Around a kit :P hehehe


OKay...for real. GALLERY TIME!!! Oooh and Scrubs tonight! YAY!!
 
We have a big snowstorm going on in Iowa. Kids got out of school at 1 and it was bad enough that our company let us go home at 2:30. Did some work from home and then took a short nap with Sydney. Just finished shoveling the driveway. It was a family affair...although Brian started earlier so it was half done before I got out there with the kids. It is coming down so fast that we are trying to keep ahead of it a bit!
I'm not planning on going to work tomorrow...supposed to move from Winter Storm to Blizzard overnight. So, next time I'm out shoveling, I'll think of you Ona!

I'll be back later for personals!

While it does get hot all over Australia we do have 'different' types of heat. Where I live, its about 35kms from the coast so we get a lot of humidity in Grafton. The further you move inland the drier the climate gets. I would much prefer a drier climate, hate the humidity!! The southern states don't as a rule get too hot but Victoria has been slugged with some really hot days to date. Tasmania is cooler than the mainland but they also are getting the heat this year. I would move to Tassie in a moment but DH didn't like it much when we were down there last year on holidays. :)
