We will see...I miss her too, but apparently she is pretty busy right now.
I wish she'd drop in once in a while to let us know how things are in Assisinippi (sp?) MA!

OK.....
So I've been seeing all these weird names out there... Like what celebrities name their poor helpless children.
Any names you are glad are not yours?
Keeping in mind the era in which you were born.....for instance, I'm a baby-boomer, and so glad my parents didn't name me after my paternal grandmother.

I'm grateful my parents didn't name me Eunice...the name they picked for me. When I was born my father said I didn't look like a Eunice and he changed the name.

I really hate that I paid $3.21 a gallon for gas today.

My sister's in-laws hounded her about when she was going to have a baby- terribly obnoxiously.
She finally told them they had picked a name if she had a girl: Hulga Sludge.
They quit hounding her after that. Named her little girl "Minka"- her husband made it up.

We tried the bike thing. It is amazing how steep the hills seem when you get to our age! (we live at the top of the steepest hill in town) Walking suits us both

I like to walk OK.
No hills here, this is what was once the Great Black Swamp.
Flat for as far as the eye can see!

Is the swamp filled in where your home is built or was it always land there?

During the late 17oo's to mid 1800's, as people moved westward, the Black Swamp got cleared and drained. It used to be an incredible wetlands back then......
We (I) have kept my small part of it, my woods, virtually untouched. I have oak trees here that are estimated to be 3-4 hundred years old. The back part of my property is very wet.
Today when I was mowing the lawn part, I saw lots of little ferns growing around trees. I almost hit a baby rabbit, but I missed it.
I have a hawk family that hunts here.
It's a lot of work, especially on my own, to maintain it, but i won't sell it until I have to.

At first when I read that sentence...I thought you were disappointed that you missed it. heh I'm sure that's not what you meant. Do you go hiking in the woods or is it too wet to do so? Are mosquitos a major problem with the wet and dampness around your property. Still waiting to hear if you met him yet. I have to live fantasies thru you I'm spoken for.

I do not go hiking. Too wet, and yes, mosquitoes are a major issue. Also a lot of poison ivy around the perimeter of the woods where the sun hits.
I was VERY happy I didn't hit the bunny!! Its cute little eyes!!
No, I have not met surgeon yet.
We will see....

I really hate the fact that everyone will come back on here after watching Desperate Housewives & Boston Legal and I will be sleeping by then. I TIVO both of them so I can watch with hubby.

I hate baths. This is kind of copy-cat, Terry loves them.

I'm trying, for the third consecutive night, to watch the end of "Sweet Home Alabama"
on the USA network.
I saw it on an airplane the first time.
Friday and Sat nights' viewings got interrupted by phone calls.
Not unwelcome calls, but still....
It's a chick flick, I was in the middle of a good cry, and ...Boom!
Quick mood shift!
Tonight I will not answer my cell!!!

I saw that on a plane too, years ago...cute movie.

Stepmom was on the tv at the hospital last night...another tear-jerker.

Saw that one....
Didn't make me cry, but close.

I really hate people who park in the middle of the road.
Especially when there is enough space not that far from where they have decided it was easiest to stop their vehicle.

I dislike smoking and what it does to people.

There's some Ovaltine commercials on the radio that I would just like to have banned. I will never buy it because of that.

You mean the ones with those annoying kid voice actors?

"More Ovaltine, please!" <blam!!!!>

I really hate that my butt and legs hurt from horseback riding cause I haven't gone in months.

I hate green peas.

I hate that I can not make the world perfect for my children.

spring???


it might as well be summer here! what's wrong with you?

I hate snow

I hate the feeling I get when I think about if the current job is right for me.

I hate that I care about what others think about me.

I know...everyone else does too..

I hate that I want to improve the world, and have no idea where or how to start.

I hate that it takes money in some form or fashion to accomplish that.

I hate getting shot down...and then the girl wants to hang out with you all the time anyway.

I hate spam email.
