Danni,
Sounds like you have wonderful support through Tim's squadren. The few times Mark has deployed not once did I hear anything from his squad and if I needed anything I always felt bad about calling them. You are very blessed. Is Tim gone for a whole year? That always seems like a long time but I guess when you are running around with kids and doing school it will go by fast! Hey how far are you from me? We should try and get together. Hope your day is going well. Hugs my friend.

Is it really only Wednesday? Crap, where is the fast forward button?
I HATE parent meetings and I sat through one of the longest of my life last night. Then I get home to teenage drama. I forgot how MEAN teen girls can be. I thought I was going to ride my broom across town last night and do some parenting that obviously wasn't being done in her own home. Argh!! Boys just didn't go through this.
Quick vent: Work is crazy. I haven't been to the grocery store. I need a hair cut. Today I have to go buy $300 worth of books. MIL is back in the hospital. And daughter's first payment for her drillteam trip is due in 2 weeks. Ok, done....breathing deep....letting it go.....
...choosing to be happy.
On a happier note....looking at thr brighter side...financial aid was dispersed yesterday and should reach my bank today or tomorrow. Looks like I am getting a laptop, used, but ALL MINE. Can't wait. Coffee is done now and I can get my caffeine fill. I have a ton of wonderful friends here on OH.

I ended up with a used comercial Dell laptop from a little place in plano - it is awsome - Tim added a bit more memory but it comes with all the software (word pp etc ) that the school requires - and works better than the new ones we have gotten for a bit more - think we payed $300 or 350 for this one and you can pick up a new bottom of hte line one for $450-500
I am buying it a new batteiry - $25 from Ebay for a new one vs $160 from dell
just tossing out ideas of what has worked for us - I had never thought of buying a used computer before Tim found this one for me

lol that is sooo funny, cause that is exactly what I'm doing. Talked to a guy who decided he needed a MAC and didn;t know what to do with the old laptop. Uh, hello? Sell it to me!! He is a techno person so he wiped it for me, updated to windows 7 and loaded all of the microfost office stuff i need for school. becuase this is his niche it is already loaded with memory, hard drive, Nvidia card, cd/dvd burner and the works. He paid over 3k for it (I think he said he originally boght it for gaming), but he's selling it to me for $300. I get to pick it up tonight. Now I'll be able to work in the quite library at school when I need to. I'm sooo excited.

I am so glad I have all boys. Not sure I could handle the drama that comes along with girls. I know what I was like...How much more school do you have left? I was hoping to get back this term but looks like I need to wait till we figure out how much is left after Mark gets done with his school. Keep on smiling and know you are doing great things.! Hugs.
okay 3 days in a row! this could get to be a habit!
Good morning everyone,
It's woo hoo wednesday so I guess my Woo hoo would be that my 'stepping out of the box' might actually pay off after all. No details yet as you know how I am about that. But we are crossing toes, chickens and everything else. This WILL be a good year, Damnit!
I also ask for prayers for a fellow TMBer who has a real trying day today.. Sweetie, I'm holding my breath and everything else for you today.
And another request is for an old friend who's daughter was on a plane about to land in HAITI when the earthquake hit yesterday. There is no word yet from her. She was on a humanitarian mission for her church. Wow, can you imagine?
I am working hard to keep myself and my home 'all together'. I am practicing my word of the year "self confidence'. And i'm also repeating the mantra of 'I can do hard things'.
Emm is my pride and (most times) joy. LOL. She is participating in a 30 hour famine at the end of February. She decided Sunday that she would get a huge paint bucket full of change to turn in for relief. She even painted the bucket! Here it is -
Prayers for all hurting in body, mind and spirit!

forgiveness is giving up the hope that the past could be any different
Amanda did a 30 hour famine at her church back when she was still in HS. She really enjoyed it......they celebrated it at the end by helping to serve at a soup kitchen (so to speak) and then had a pancake breakfast or something like that afterwards...................
Well - guys - it is time for me to get in shower. I took 1/2 day vacation so I could go up to Amandas college for a seminar on Financial Aide (3 hours........
) What can they talk about in 3 hours...........grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr I dont' have to be at wor****il 1 - but from 1-5 it will be non-stop to get in my primary functions completed for the day....................
There's that magic wand.....When we'll pay for some of her books to get her started for classes on 1-19...............$$$ Cha ching - cha ching.........................
Luv you all !!
