It's FRIDAY!!! TGIF MENA

[Nothing1234 2]

Good one Tamara!!! i love it!

So glad that it's Friday. I don't have anything yet planned but that can be a good thing. Kids have their homecoming this weekend so that means an empty house

My boss has been bringing me in hot chocolate and an egg mcmuffin for me all week and gave me my check a day early (not to mention he paid me for overtime and I didn't even work over at all), i wonder what he wants. If he is trying to sweeten me up so i work over the thanksgiving holiday, he's crazy! Just keep them goodies coming, it's nice to be spoiled

Sara and Annie, Count me in!! i'm right with you guys on those weekend naps...well not together but you know what i mean

Have a great Friday MENA!!!

Maureen...if its a big bed for napping..I don't mind sharing...just make sure of a few things:

1) Do NOT steal my covers! I will roll you off the bed and take both blankets!

2) Do NOT snore (see pillow note in #4....i may use pillow as a weapon!)

3) Do NOT touch me with icy cold feet or you will have to scrape me off the ceiling! Then when I recover, I will use my pilllow again!)

4) Do NOT attempt to steal my pillows...I'm very protective and not above smothering offenders!

Other than that...I'm a dream to share a bed with!

They didn't hire me ...bummer. I have 3 more places to go on Monday.

I feel human again after a shower and sleep.

Happy Friday!

Venus...it's not weird that you want your kids to love their stepmom. It makes life easier for them. I would never want my kids to dislike their stepmom. I know some women get jealous of that relationship but I'm secure in my relationship with my boys and know they are crazy about me...teehee! This is how I look at it...the more ppl that love your kids, the better. Makes for happy, secure and content kids.

My mission is complete!

Good evening MENA

Well another rainy day here in Illinois and there saying it will get down to 28 degrees tomarrow. OMG and they even mentioned the "S" word Jeeze what the heck happened to FALL? I think it just went from summer to winter. And I'm not ready for it at all. Medo had his first winter last year and he is done with it also. Hopefully this spring 2010 we can get the house sold and were off to California. If it dont sell I'm renting it out and still were off to Cali.

Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooongggg time no see or read!

Happy Friday. Hubby's in Canada and will be back after a week there. It's kinda lonely here for me..... especially during my "recovery" time from the double-whammy flu & cold bug I got over a week ago. So after seeing the doc Tuesday took Weds off to be all drugged up and slept in until late afternoon. Since I've been back at work Thursday, I'm a speed devil on processing invoices. Haha!

How are ya'll!?! Annie, miss you and the family (and Angus!)!!!

Oh, who said "naps?" I haven't had one of those since.... gee whiz, I can't remember!

Jax, glad to know you're safely in the Northwest! Hope one of the other 3 spots you've staked out hires you, I'm sure they will!

Ok, I'm off wondering what to do with my free Friday evening... hmmm....

Babes!!! I miss you guys!!! You should have just packed up and come here! We all miss you (Angus too...he adores you!!) although Nour might be sad without her bf Odai... So funny how much she liked him!

I'm happy you are feeling better!

I'm home free too...hubster works Friday nights...so I'm chilling w/ babies and watching/listening to youtube videos....

Good evening MENA! I haven't really been around the past few days. Studying...

Also, yesterday my younger sister (a freshman in high school) found out that a girl she's known from junior high and was good friends with in 7th grade, passed away suddenly. The autopsy confirmed that she had a case of H1N1 but that the main cause of death may be a genetic artery defect (but they're not sure). I was super saddened by this---one because this happened at the same high school I went to not too long ago, so it's so weird when things happen so close to home, and two--this is a young, lively, happy, loved, 14 year old girl--I couldn't imagine something like this happening to my own sister. Her name was Michelle Fahle, if anyone has the chance, look up the group made in honor of her on facebook and pay your respects to a girl that died far too young.

On a completely different topic... I was totally craving tiramisu and finally god my hands on some... yum.

But the real GOOD NEWS is that I got this job I realllllllly wanted! So super excited about that (thank you god!). It took so many applications, resume/cover letters to finally land a position in my own field. Seriously I think I applied for like 30 jobs, got 2 interviews, and was finally given one offer. It's so hard these days. I wish you the best of luck J+I... I really pray that you get offers during your upcoming interviews, I know how hard the process can be.

About the weather... man Chicago sucks.

Sounds like a lovely night in with the babies! I ended up heading out to Bed Bath & Beyond to get a tub stopper, I wanna take a nice hot bubbly bath!! Ended up also getting a new shower rod, which turned out to be too long.... DARNIT! (I can't measure for #######!). Then headed over to Ross and picked out a pretty RETRO looking shower curtain ... ya know brownish/orange/beigey hues... thought it would match with our bathroom which is pretty gnarly. Haha. I just put in the hooks so tomorrow I shall exchange the rod for a shorter one. *sighs* (Still using the guest bathroom shower).

And yes, I should have just come outta there.... I don't think I'll be up for the drive tho with all the Meds in moi. Wish flights are cheapo, I would have taken one out! Is the weather cooler out there now?

Hehe about Nour and her bf.... my hubby.... that totally rocked, I was like "How did you get the girl so quick? Geez, I gotta watch out for all those girls!" hehehe.

I'm a little restless this evening, it's my first "alone" time in a long awhile.... just myself... no hubby and most especially no Punk

M -- that's totally terrible about Michelle. They say usually the ones with underlying conditions are vastly affected. I'm so sorry for everyone who is close to her and knows her....

CONGRATULATIONS on the new job!

Happy Friday.. glad I can sleep in tomorrow. Long week.

Dreary and cold all day. The colors are starting to come out..I am trying to take it all in as much as I can. One strong wind storm and they will be all on the ground!

Enjoy your weekend.
