Wow ladies! I go away for a long weekend and so much stuff happens!  I've had a good read through of the last three pages or so, so here goes...
Kim, I'm so glad the roadtrip is going well! Sounds like the girls are taking to travelling like ducks to water!
NicoleCan, that "friend" of yours sounds a bit pooey, I must admit. What a cheeky thing to ask! You deserve to be treated much more politely than that, you are a sweetheart! And of course I will pray for Christi, poor love. Sounds like a really tough time.
NicoleAus, sweetheart, I am praying for you. This sounds like such a trying and stressful time with you, and I really think you are doing magnificently, and dealing with it with such grace. You go, girl!
Yolanda, I luuuuuurve blueberries! I'm so jealous! 
Chelle, your book club sounds super fun. Thank you for reminding me, I've been meaning to find one for a while!
Sandy, poor Sissy! I am thinking of and praying for you guys!
Sarah, that T-mobile stand guy sounds horrid. I detest bad customer service!
Chelsea, what wonderful news about the photography. I did a big old happy dance for you!
Rachel, you are so wise, missy. Your advice to NicAus was spot on! Bless you.
Crystal, you poor thing with the peeler - I don't own one because I'm convinced they are out to get me!  Hurray for orders though, and I hope the scrapbook comes together well.
Zippy, I think you're lovely, and your posts always read well.
And Jessica, that is SO exciting! I hope it works out for your sister 
Phew...
I am having one of those days where I just can't seem to get on. I think this is being exacerbated by the fact I have to catch a train at 5 to go to Birmingham for a dinner party, which is lovely, but means I feel I can't properly get into anything this afternoon, because I'll have to leave a little while. Sigh. I hate underproductive days!

Tommorrow Greg gets to the be the SAH parent. I have another all-day seminar for continuing education on my Engineer's license. Tomorrow's will be on plumbing, which I'm glad about. Spent so much time designing HVAC stuff that I often felt I didn't understand the plumbing side as well as I should. In November there's another seminar on steam.
So does Micah, but only because I have a class in the morning and MIL is busy.
Crystal, I love that page!
Sandy, I'm sorry Sissy is sick. I had asthma pretty bad at her age and remember all those illnesses.The only thing that saves me from Pneumonia is the vaccine... Praying she feels better today. Did they send you home with a nebulizer?
Good to see you, Jess!

Ruth and Yolanda -- you MUST track down Dana (ncgrlnhisgrip). She would probably LOVE to talk shop with you two! She tests homes for Energy Star ratings (among other things -- too mechanical/techy for my simple brain).
I spent 3.5 years in a company that did a lot of energy audits for mostly commercial sites. That's where I got almost all of my business trips in. Good fun for back when I didn't have kids. I liked it a lot better then pure design, dealing with nasty contractors and everyone trying to blame someone else and save a few dollars.
If I was still at that job, I wouldn't have been nearly so happy to become a SAHM, but downsizing made the decision for me, and a few years in design work helped to curb my enthusiasm for the office place.
I still have fond memories of those energy audit trips, though.

Nicole, soooo glad the blood tests are done! I hope you get those results soon! Lorne is just the kind of guy that likes to help out and make people happy. Maybe we could convince one of the rich dudes that owns a plane at his work to come pick you guys up. 
Chelsea that is SO AWESOME!!!! 
Yolanda, your husband has a dog? Or is it his families dog? Mmmm blueberries! I LOVE frozen blueberries! I would love to get that much for free! Yay for your house stuff starting!!!
Crystal, wooohooo for a huge order! Your front page looks perfect in my opinion!
Lexie, LOL yes it would be a bad time to tell me that! Haha you stinker! How is your wii fit going?
((((((((((Sissy)))))))))))) I hope she is okay now. Poor baby girl!
Jessica, that would be super cool if they did get married and she moved right near you. Tht would be soooo cool!

Thanks Claire! You are too sweet! Yeah, I wouldn't even consider her to be my friend anymore. We haven't been friends in 10 years and just because we emailed back and forth a couple of times 5 months ago does not mean we are all buddy buddy. I don't know why she even though I would be fine with that. How long is your train ride tonight?

Hey, that's neat about Monkey Joe's, Chelle. (That Hunter had a good time, not the disrespectful little boy.) I'm going to Jeronimo next week, but another SAHM here recommended Monkey Joe's to me. I may have to try it out!

Search and rescue called Lorne's boss letting them know that they picked Paul, Grant and the other guys up off a mountain. They don't know what really happened, but we all think it is due to weather. Probably snow or ice or both. I guess we will find out more when Paul or Grant calls them.

Oh, wow! I'm glad they are safe, Nicole. What a relief for Lorne and the others.

Nope, not productive...this always happens to me after being on vacation. It takes me forever to fall back into the daily grind of keeping up with household chores. I will get there because my parents, sister, BIL, and nephew arrive on Friday and will be here until Monday.

I hope you have fun with your parents even though Lorne will be gone. Hubby will be here with us so that will be nice to have the whole gang together. Hopefully we have beautiful weather so the boys can play together outside. I hate feeling couped up in the house all day, but THANK YOU JESUS FOR THE RAIN!!!

So Chelle, how did you enjoy the bouncy castle I've always thought they should have those for adults.
Loved them! I went on 2 different ones with him and then one of them he could do by himself. It was a lot of fun!!!

But it will be nice to spend time with my parents alone. I don't think we have done that since I got married.
