Hi everyone!

McFly, I am SO SO glad Oliver is alive and well!!

maple, your ex is a douche, but we all knew that. It's great to hear that you had help over the weekend and got so much done.

to you and your girls.

Algae, dear, a hospital joke for you:

A man is in the hospital recovering from a recent surgery. The anesthetic and painkillers have left him constipated, so the doctor prescribes laxatives. Having had several false alarms, the man figures he is having another one when suddenly he severely messes his bed. In complete embarrassment and a bit of a panic, he wads up the bed linens and throws them out his window. Meanwhile, below his window a man is walking home from the bar after having several drinks. The crappy bedsheets fall directly on him and the man, confused, begins struggling with them.

Seeing what has happened, a hospital security guard walks over and, trying to keep a straight face, asks the man what is going on. Having wrestled the stinking sheets to the ground, the man stares down at them, then looks at the guard and says, "I'm not sure, but I think I just beat the crap out of ghost."

Ducky, sorry your knees are still bothering you.

Debi, it's good to hear your son is okay. Those allergic reactions are very scary!

Nells, congrats on baby bunnies!

Boyd,

.

Dacs, sorry I missed you!

Laree, hope you enjoyed your walk to school. That sounds like fun.

Bows and boo, hello!

Michelle, ouch on the shipping.

Sparkles, how long before they are ham and bacon? Yummmmm.....

If I missed anyone, I am sorry. I have to get to work now. But before I do, let me just say that we had two pullet eggs this morning and they were beautiful!

You are probably right about that sparkles!

Oh, maple, just for you: DS#1 and I spent all of Saturday afternoon and part of the evening cleaning and rearranging his bedroom. He has always been a "saver"; every little thing he wants to keep. He cleaned his bookshelf himself and then asked me for help with the rest of his room....good Lord was it a mess. He had stuff stashed everywhere. Little by little we sorted, cleaned, threw away and organized. At one point he said "Mom, I've decided I don't want to be a hoarder. It's awful when my imagination takes over my body and says 'You can keep that and use it someday!' "

I have to hand it to him, though, he did a really good job of getting rid of things and finding logical ways to organize the stuff he kept.

If we lived anywhere close me and my no-longer-a-hoarder kid would come and help you!

Wasn't Algae scheduled for a c-section this morning? Hope everything went well.

for everyone who had a rough weekend. Sounds like I missed a lot this weekend.

Today is the first day of school for my kids. Ella got on the bus with the big kids for her first day of kindergarten. Ella was an infant when the older kids started school, so it's always been me and her at home all day long together for the last 5 years. I had such a hard time watching her get on the bus! She's been my at-home buddy for so long!

Now Jacob will be my at-home buddy for the next 5 years. Of course I wanted to smother him this morning for only letting me get 3 hours of sleep last night. I don't know what his problem was, but he was so difficult last night. I took advantage of the quiet house and took a 3 hour nap with him this morning.

Aw, Belle. That first day of school is always hard, isn't it?

Nice that you could get a nap, though!

I didn't have any problem waving good-bye to Jackie and Matthew when their turn came, but watching Ella climb on the bus was sooooo hard! You'd think the 3rd would be easy.
