ugh

We just emailed-she said she would give it the same consideration, btu I am nervous.....she doesn't seem as chatty as the other one (I am not posting names). It jsut worries me...I didn't get that friendly vibe I was hoping for......so, I am just going to still try to take a class to prove myself, even though I feel like i jsut did that for three years straight! Although, State does have a cool dvd PE selection...I can do aerobics and actually get credit for it!:) Now, finding another class to take is another story.....Latin American history or philosophy or business just don't seem to terribly interesting! Yikes!

ummmmmmmmm

Okay, I finally called the other lady back, since the original person I spoke with is out of the office until febuary.......and let's just say I did most of the talking.........NO not because I am a motor mouth, but because this lady jsut really (and i amean really) did not have anything to say to me.....which can't be good........I mean, she didn't even tell me about the form, where to send it, nothing! So..........is this another roadblock? Or another challenge on my great quest? I swear, if I end up with a degree in anything, it will be nothing short of a miracle!

Aubrey Kate Johnson


Congrats to Kevin and Ashley who welcomed a healthy baby girl into the world today at 2:58pm! Aubrey weighed in at 6 pounds, 7 ounces and was 20 inches long! Ten fingers, ten toes (although I have yet to see if they are "webbed" like Sydney's:>)


Ash was a complete trooper and had TWO epidurals (yes, ladies, I know it makes you cringe!) The first one only took to one side, so she had to have a second, but once it set in, all was right with the world. She smiled and just sat around as she had contraction after contraction. Then, it began to progress quickly...and only 21 minutes of pushing and here she was!


Mommy AND daddy are both doing fine and are VERY excited and proud parents. I stood at the nursery window and watched Kevin watching Aubrey, as the nurse bathed her and monitored her. Aside from getting our cameras for close-ups, Kevin did not take his eyes off of her for two hours, and Aubrey was staring right back! It was love at first sight. Very sweet.

Uh oh

I may have waited too late....now Nicole is out of the office until Febuary! opps!

That is what I get for procrastinating!

SO, now I am in contact with some other person and have to start all over......

ewwwwwwww







"Water on the knee"?
Arthritis?
Whatever it is, I don't want a needle in it-I would rather live with the swollen knee! It doesn't hurt, thankfully.
But, I am scheduling an ortho visit (sheesh, how old am I again?). Guess all the years of being on my feet have caught up with me-I may have chicken legs, but now they are beginning to fail. Years of waiting on people-retail and tables-this is what happens.
I have been on my feet at jobs since my first retail job at Hallmark, when I was 15. I have had office jobs, but those were back in my "younger" days, when after a week of work, I would spend the weekend dancing til 2am.
So, there you have it-coming back to haunt me!
Wait, can I claim disability for this? I want a handout!
Sorry, couldn't help it......hee hee
BTW, experienced a first last night. Went to Target and a man in a car had stopped Chad-thought he was asking for directions.........oh no, you won't believe it......he was asking for spare change! IN A CAR!!!!!! What the **************???????????? Revolutionary! Begging from a CAR! My God, that is what we have come to!

I am at a loss for words...

Yes, me........the mouth of the south......does not know what to say! How can I explain why I made straight F's in classes I barely attended fifteen years ago, when I truly don't remember why! I couldn't tell you what i did two days ago, let alone fifteen years ago!
I just remember signing up for the classes, but I don't remember going, but I don't remember why I didn't. All I can say is I am an idiot, but you can't write that in a formal request and sound halfway intelligent. My admission is on the line and I don't know what to say except, jeez, I made a mistake! Well, maybe I could leave the jeez part out!
