Carly Simon's "That's The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be" is on the turntable.... 

My father sits at night with no lights on
His cigarette glows in the dark.
The living room is still;
I walk by, no remark.
I tiptoe past the master bedroom where
My mother reads her magazines.
I hear her call sweet dreams,
But I forgot how to dream.

But you say it's time we moved in together
And raised a family of our own, you and me -
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be:
You want to marry me, we'll marry.

My friends from college they're all married now;
They have their houses and their lawns.
They have their silent noons,
Tearful nights, angry dawns.
Their children hate them for the things they're not;
They hate themselves for what they are-
And yet they drink, they laugh,
Close the wound, hide the scar.

But you say it's time we moved in together
And raised a family of our own, you and me -
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be:
You want to marry me, we'll marry.

You say we can keep our love alive
Babe - all I know is what I see -
The couples cling and claw
And drown in love's debris.
You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds,
But soon you'll cage me on your shelf -
I'll never learn to be just me first
By myself.

Well O.K., it's time we moved in together
And raised a family of our own, you and me -
Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be,
You want to marry me, we'll marry,
We'll marry.

Ya'll have a great day my friends!

GOOD MORNING! Thanks for getting the ball rolling this morning Karen. I'm so glad its Friday! This week has been SO LONG! Chris has been at technology camp at the school this week and they're having an awards ceremony today so I'm taking off early and heading over there.

Sunday I'm leaving for Denver for a national ADA Symposium for work. I'm so excited to get to go. I'm staying with a friend of mine and taking the train in each day. I'll be back Wednesday night. Then the next Sunday I'm leaving for Corpus for a conference. I rarely get to travel for work and now I'm going to 2 different places in 2 weeks.

We had a great dinner last night at The Keg.

Good morning all. It's been awhile since I've had time to board the train. I don't have computer access during the day right now (and no fancy phone), and do boot camp Mon-Thurs mornings at 0600, so that doesn't leave much time for nuthin'! I try to read at night and keep up with everyone.

All is good in my world. The cruise is getting closer and closer..then OH convention in November...Have started training for 1/2 marathon in Dec-a bunch of us  OH WLSers are doing it together.

Better get humming here-have appt with pt at 07:15 and if I'm not there he'll go on to the dining room and I'll miss my one chance to get fitted in "his busy schedule" today.

Prayers to my special peeps who need them.

I LOVE Y'ALL AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT-I always MEAN that-even when I'm not HERE!!

Morning everyone!

I'm so excited...today taking off at lunch to fly to NW Arkansas to visit my two best friends and go hiking!!!  I haven't REALLY been hiking since college (Dallas doesn't have the kind of terrain that I would call real hiking....at least I haven't found it) so VERY excited.  Even went out and bought some new hiking boots since I have not needed those in a while....

1.  I used to dread __flying because of that crappy seatbelt extender.
2.  I now thoroughly enjoy ___shopping...I'm going to have to work on that, think it's my transfer addiction.
3.  I've lost ____my obsessive thoughts about food.
4.  I've always wanted to ___marry Rick Springfield...isn't he dreamy? 

Have a great day everyone!  I'll check back in when I get back, cross your fingers for good weather and no snakes!!!
