Tissues?
Who knows? I cry a lot over many things! I cried over afictionalbook I was reading the other night!
Vitamins?
I take D and C with some regularity. It seems that now the jury is still out on whether a multi-vitamin is
good for you or can contribute to some kinds of cancer. Google it if you don't believe me. (Apparently, too much folic acid which they contain can contribute to certain kinds of cancer.) On the other hand, vitamins are good at preventing macular degeneration in the eye. So I generally split the difference and take one about once a week. My dr asked me if I took vitamins, and he said that he thought this was a reasonable approach. We'll see what they say next. Basically, I think we should try to get our vitamins from food.
Under my desk?
footstool and small wastebasket are there right now. Sometimes a lap blanket resides there
as well.
Doghouse? I often let the chair at our computer desk slide under the pull down part of it and it could scratch the wood or so says
hubby. (Hard to explain, just trust me on this one! When he sees that chair under the woodpiece, I'm in the doghouse! )
Hello everyone!
Thanks to all for the prayers and well wishes for our little neighbor girl. She actually was able to come home last night after they ran a lot of tests to be sure: No broken bones and No internal bleeding. She is a very banged up little one and is going to be very sore for a while but it could have been SO MUCH worse.
Today's Question:
I ate ________for dinner, you may not consider it "proper" dinner food but I did ? Noodles with butter, salt and pepper.
Bonus Question:
When was your last "I know I am going to need tissues for this" ? at the hospital waiting outside the ER the other night
Extra Credit Question:
If I was to take a look under your desk right now, what would I see ? At home: wires, a box of discs, and dust. At work: wires, garbage can, portable heater and not as much dust.
Just for Fun:
Do you take Vitamins ? no
Have you ever used the phrase "hunky dory" ? yes, I have also used "just peachy"
Last time you were in the "Dog house" ? been a little while What did you do to end up there ? probably something I said or bought
July is:

Ok folks, the vacation plans have changed and now we are trying to decide which way to go on the bikes. Do we ride from Iowa out to Wyoming to Yellowstone OR go from Iowa down to Eureka Springs and Hot Springs, Arkansas OR do we go over to the eastern part of the state and ride along the river?
We are having trouble deciding. Thanks for your help!
Thanks to all for the congrats on the new star as well. I am such a party pooper that I have missed a lot of parties lately. If you have gotten any new stars lately know that I think you all are a great bunch of peeps and many here deserve stars named after you!
ditto! Happy birthday, Ilene, and wishing you a blessed year ahead
