Good morning everyone! It's Friday today! Yay! I hope everyone is settled in at your place Marilyn and that your heart is happy with your Mom, Dad, and sister visiting! :)

I was looking for updates trailmix on Casselberry, but didn't find any. Look at as many houses as you can so that when you make your decision it'll be the right one. :thumbs:

MrsCat, hope your mouth is feeling better today! My peridonist said to me that my gums should have been looked at earlier, but that's why socialized medicine doesn't work. huh?? :blink: I was on that immediately! He apologized after I had my say...*sigh*

Still rather cool here this week, but we're hoping it's warmer this weekend for some geocaching.

Enjoy your day!

Thanks for the coffee Carla! Yes isn't it silly - people hear about 'socialized medicine' and think it's some kind of coddling thing where absolutely everything is covered, there are no individual 'rights' and we are all just a bunch of babies having everything paid for. I wish people wouldn't just listen to mass media - silly silly. On the flip side former President Clinton was on Larry King Live the other night talking about universal health care - he is a smart man.

Oh as for Casselberry. Well Mike is going to see 3 houses on his way home tonight (Casselberry is between where he works and here) - he is doing preliminary viewings :lol:

I didn't find out much about it really - you know I think it is just a place similar to Lake Mary - basically a big suburb or Orlando!

We have to drive up to Binghamton on Sunday to meet my mom, why? I don't know, she is afraid of driving on the Schuylkill and frankly I don't blame her but to meet her all the way up there. I told her when going back we'd toe her out past the Schuylkill but that's it.

I am kind of looking forward to her coming here and kind of not. Only because entertaining is tiring and I have a routine and when my routine gets messy I get flustered.

She wanted me to take time off of work but I can't... this time of month we need to deal with members who have overdue accounts and I need to be here to help my boss deal with that.

Oh speaking of work we have a bunch of Canadians moving down to the area and are joining the club. One of the guys is from Toronto and went to ESA at the same time I did, granted I only went for a year but its still very cool! He's a big wig at TD bank now and has transferred down. He asks me questions I do not know the answers to like: "Where's a good place to buy a boat.."

How the hell should I know. :lol: Umm at the shore perhaps?? I dunno.

Isn't Binghamton 3-4 hours away? Hopefully she won't have your uncle hiding in the trunk to surprise you :lol:

:( Awww. If you wanna get together this weekend let me know. I'm not doing ANYTHING and maybe we can have some fun in your boy's absense.

Binghampton is far to drive, Nev. She's worth it though ;)

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

AWWWW thanks!! :D That's so sweet, actually his family is keeping my pretty busy because they were worried about me. I had to remind them, I lived alone for 4 years in Canada so I'm a big girl!! :lol: But anyway Glen's sister asked me to go see a movie tonight, tomorrow going shopping with his Mom and Granny for furniture then out for dinner to the cheesecake factory, and Sunday a birthday party so it's good to be kept busy :)
