What made you smile today?

heehee, yep. I'm such a bad auntie.

Yeah, but she'll SCRUB those veggies now!!

Lesse, miscellaneous things...

Sozlet wanted to play outside, I just wanted to go in and take care of some things that needed to be done. She was insistent. I needed to be a seesaw, which involved laying down on the ground. I complied, she ended up laying down on top of me, baby-otter style, and we both laid there looking up at our big elm as it swayed in the wind, pointing out squirrels' nests and crows. After about 10 minutes of this, after my blood pressure had gone down several notches, I realized that I was pretty silly for thinking that something was more important than laying in the grass and looking at a swaying elm.

Playdate today. Sozlet and Jack are always worth many smiles. She showed him her bedroom today (first time), and they took turns being sick (climbing in bed, blankets up to chin) and ministering to the sickie (bringing "medicine", looking concerned, feeling forehead for fever.)

Smiling from that story, soz. Thanks.

Soz - yep! Hopefully she'll keep eating them. Actually I had to tell her it wasn't true. Sigh.

Oooooohhh, Sozlet's playing doctor at quite a young age.....

At least she knows to wash them real good now! Cuz they can grow underneath poopie ya know.....

It happens!

(Yes, what with doctor and beds, I felt compelled to add the blankets up to the chin part... )

haha!

I got my first ever Nigerian scam email today. I was starting to feel left out

And such a sad story! Apparently someone with the same surname as mine, (not specified) from my country (which was also not specified), died in a tragic plane crash, with his wife and 2 children, on New Years Day this year. Try as he may, this person, who is a barrister, cannot find any relatives of this sad family to send them the $14 million, so I may as well have it!

Wheeeee! I'm gunna be rich! I'm gunna be rich! Should I tell the boss off just yet! I'm just off to send this kind, considerate man all my personal and bank details.....

I got one of those the other day, too, Margo! Sadly, I won't be rich because my nickname 'Rae' is short for my full name, so they got the wrong person.....Darn!

Rae

This'n didn't specify any name - so I can pass it on and you'll be rich too, if you just follow the nice man's kind instructions (but - then there'll be less for me )

Must have been different benefactors then.....my email stated that my beloved family memeber 'Tim Rae' was gone.....so sad.

But, hey! I'll share in the wealth! Where's my checkbook and password?! :wink:

I'll take a tenth.....how's that?

Hey, can I get in on that?

Since your a friend ~ OF COURSE!

Love ya - miss ya - how the heck are you, ma'am? (I don't have messenger anymore, by the way )

Gee Thanks Rae :-D

Love ya and miss ya right back ;-) I'm doing great and how might you be doing? What happened to your messenger?

PM'ing you with all the boring details. Should have done that to begin with. I'm an awful friend when it comes to keeping in touch. Just ask Roger.

LOL! I'm the same way! Just ask Roger, haha ;-)

Need to add ehBeth and littlek to that list.....I really should work on this trait. Really.

Me too ;-)

Your signature line is what makes me worry about this trait.....

I might be a putz with keeping in touch, so I guess I expect the same in others. But I don't forget people and worry (somewhere down deep) that people will forget me. Selfish, but true.

Unless of course, I truly piss off said person and they have a good reason for not wanting to see me again.....

Hey! It could happen!
