what meal? geez, what'd I miss?! I'll have to go back through.....

Gen that is so cool that you're doing that! You'll do great I'm sure

I was supposed to go close the house in Eastport today, but that's on hold at least until this afternoon.... We wore Katy out and she's still sleeping Between letting her go out walking on Friday, and the football game, a birthday party/sleepover, and the shopping I think she may have backslid. Gauging this mono stuff is hard! We thought she was ready for all of that.... I hope we didn't undo *all* the good!

I'm NaNo-ing too. 6,649 words so far. I'll write tonight. Fiction kills me, even when the writing can be crappy. Give me a topic I know, facts, let me research - good to go for non-fiction. Fiction? Scary stuff! I wish I had your discipline. I can write here and avoid NaNo! I mean really, we have 30 days. I can write 43,000 words in 24 hours. Deadlines are good! I told Molly I was writing for the entire month of November. She said, "You can't sit still that long."

Good luck!!

lol MW!

ok, I got the meal thing I got a cranberry a while ago, and I just got a pinecone--but I ain't eatin it!, but I don't see other foods. I AM getting a lot of reps with no names lately, and I wish that I knew who was sending them along.... not that I'm unappreciative by any means! The other thing I discovered is that when I rep you guys in the "off topic" thread, you don't get all 5 of the points I can give. It's because it's "off topic" I'm sure, but geez, I still think a giggle is worth all the points I can give!

MW congratulations on your star!! I had noticed when 7th got close, and pushed him over, but I wasn't on here enough to notice for you It's very well deserved for both of you!

7th thanks for the link!! lol.... I missed that on SNL and I laughed so hard watching it through the link

Just make sure it's open again come February!! Do you realize how quickly that's going to hit us? I'm starting to freak out a little!! We counted weeks with the girls last night, because they kept asking how many more days until they get to start their new school in Maine. OMG!! 14 or so weeks? Are you kidding me?? Time is already getting away from me!!

I think we need to start cleaning out closets and packing the excess NOW. I also have to plan a big moving sale within a few weeks of leaving. February is not the best time for yard sales. I'm not sure about that one, but I'm definitely dumping the living room set and as much junk as possible. Oh, and the big screen TV. We're going to greatly consolidate. I need a list! I keep thinking of more and more things we need to check on/take care of/reserve, etc. Holy cow!

I have a date and a pinecone. Hmmmmmm
