haha yeah i'd just be getting up if i didn't have to take the boys to school.

I'm sorry, llonka!
I don't think that I'm ignoring you...am I?

I'm just not online as much as I used to be.

It's gotta be tough being married, having kids, and going to school.
Back when I went to school, I was able to focus on that, cuz that's ALL I did.
(Well, that and work to make some $$).

Diamond, I love your avie! It reminds me of something, but I can't put my finger on it.

You aren't Jean!
Eh its not too hard, at least I don'tthink so.

I just remember that when I was taking classes, I pretty much was focused on them totally.

Later in life, years after college when I was going for my PMI (Project Management Institute's certification), there was going to be an exam, and that was the first time in YEARS that I had to study. It was hard to get back into the habit again!

It is hard to get back into it. I put off my homework today that is due tomorrow. XP It's just reading but still, I should have gotten it all done today.

Hey, Tony is going to drive in Atlanta!

I saw that! I hope everything goes okay for him.

i thought he might come back

Yup. I didn't see it, but hubby says that when he walked into the garage area, he got a lot of claps and support from all the other drivers.

that's good to hear. it's a rough situation. it's a terrible thing to have to live with

That is a hard thing to deal with.

I saw some of it on the news here, and was glad to hear he'll return.

It will be really interesting to see how well he does tomorrow.

I forget what time the race is on though...

Poor thread. *hugs it*

So I'm dealing with the loss of a friend from high school. It makes you realize how fragile life really is.

It is extrememely hard thing to deal with. i know. i've lost a friend every year since I graduated. Except this one.... so far... and I hope it stays that way... But I may be losing my favorite Aunt.

Sorry to hear that Shadami.

so we got a new kitty. It's a long story, but it pretty much rode under my van for a whole day and came out when it heard of our other cats. I brought it in so it wouldn't climb up in the engine.

There it is! *glomps llonka*
/the thread
/there the thread is

the kitty was RIDING on the van? underneath it? o.o how is that even possible.

*imagines making over 1k today*

i hope you do :] i would love some actual cash over 1k. so i can pay bills. that'd be nice.

Yep. I didn't know it was under there till I was at the dollar store... let me find the story and i'lll quote it.

So I had some strange stuff go on yesterday. Yesterday morning we were feeding Taddy her breakfast outside and a baby kitty showed up and wanted some too. When it was time to take the boys to school, the kitten ran underneath the van. I just assumed it ran off when I backed up to take them to school, it was really foggy yesterday morning. So I took them to school and came back home. About three hours later I went to the dollar store to get some tuna for lunch. When I came out of the store I saw a cat RUN from the front of the store towards my van. I thought to myself, that looks like the baby kitty from home... so I got over to the van and heard it meowing frantically. It was sitting on the tire and I tried to get it, but it kept running off to another tire. Finally 20 minutes later, I couldn't find it anymore. I called hubby to see what he thought I should do because I had to be at class in 30 minutes, and he said to just get in and go home, hopefully it will be okay. I was afraid the dang cat had climbed up inside the engine. Luckly I got home okay and checked under the van again, but didn't find the kitten. I just wondered (but my gut feeling said no) that it had run off in the parking lot. So I took Jacob his cupcakes (for his birthday) and went to class, came home and ate supper then went back to class worrying about the kitten the whole time. When I got back from my night class, Taddy was home again (kitty that lives outside) and she was meowing at me. As soon as she meowed I heard a baby kitty meow and here came the little grey kitten out from underneath the van. I was shocked. Floored. That crazy thing had gone to the store, the boys' school and college (twice) with me. Where it hid under there and hung on all day I have no idea. But something or someone was looking after that cat. I called for Jeremy and we finally got ahold of the kitten and brought it in the house. I didn't want to bring in another cat, but I'm afraid since it hid inside the van like that all day, that once it started getting real cold (supposed to next week) it will get up in the engine then I will really be upset.

that.. is insane o.o

I know right? I was thinking last night, I wonder how many of her nine lives she used up that day. lol.

god.... i hope not to many :O

That's what hubby said when I told him that.

So I'm gonna stay home today. I don't feel good, tummy is upset and have a little fever. Head is starting to hurt. Hopefully it's okay that I just emailed a paper that is due today...
