OMG Shawn, I'm so sorry to hear of your losses. I will keep you and yours in my thoughts.
Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!

No school this week! Yay!! Have a great holiday everyone!

Hey guys--If you are interested either personally or as a part of a school program to mail packages to the soldiers over in Iraq please email me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. About six years ago hubby and I started a holiday mailing program. We find the unit and you get to support by sending them a package...If you email me then I'll let you know the particulars but truly these men and women are so brave--and they deserve a holiday boost. My Christmas in the desert was a mixed up emotional time. While I was of course saddened to be away from my family--there was a comaraderie and air of spirit that was undeniable. Your support with packages and greetings from home will help make this season a bit more homey--so if you're in the mood let me know....

Glad to see you back Shawn!

Shrinky Dinks! OMG, I used to love those! I remember mom used to cut the playdough out of the carpet! She hated it. HA! Thus, my kids don't get play dough.

Talking about snow for Thursday and Friday. Anyone wanting it? Glad to send it your way! Takers???? Luckily just going across town to MIL for dinner Thanksgiving!

Trip to Alabama was nice. Daughter #4 ate crawfish and loved it. YUCK!! No thanks. Son #2 was a candle lighter (last minute fill in) and refused to eat anything at the rehersal dinner for fear it was gator. By the time of the reception, he did eat ham...ha! Of course he didn't pass up the death by chocolate dessert at the rehersal though.

He had a hard time getting the candles to light during the ceramony. So he turned the lighter thing up full blast. Looked like a torch! Sparks flying off the wicks of the candles...preacher said to groom, "Do I see sparks?" Groom replies, "Pretend you didn't see it!".

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Son #5 MRI and blood work all came back normal. We have alot to be thankful for! Now just to get him interested in walking!

Here you go Shawn...double shot of Baileys!!

Glad everyone is safe and things have got to pick up from here! Is there anything we can do?

My toy obsession...shrinky dinks.

Going to the Bills / Patriots game on Sunday night. Let me see, boots-check, winter coat-check, hat-check, mittens-check, scarf-check.......

Addictions worse than playdoh?.... Lego's :eek:

sold condo bought repo house (to help friend), burnt, warehouse burnt (games GO POOF!!!!), now renting sold condo (nice buyer), wife now really ill -- to make a really Looooooonnnnng story short (and I thought last yr sucked)

ND sucks, Cubs suck (recurring theme??), Colts will be OK (IF they can suit up more than 15 players for a playoff game) -- 1 errr... (6 INT, missed FG, MASH unit of active players and they still almost won!!! -- 2nd loss is an anomoly) 2 losses does not a season make... but could an be an ugly end 2 the season

Billary's an idiot (she sucks, errr I mean cool) , Obama has no class (or patriotism -- he sucks), lemme see Pats are cheaters, and the best one (GIANT 'pun intended' ***FISTPUMP***) Mr Bond's prolly going to JAIL (he's also prolly a cheater) .....

Pass the Baileys and Hot Cocoa please....
