Neak could probably right a travel guide about the interesting people she meets in these travels.

Not to mention the best places in which to break sinks.

Ah, yes..."Guide to the Best Rest Area Sinks" <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

T&L,

Things are just going. DD is taking DGS#3 to counselling as soon as she can get an appointment. We figure that things will go on from there, once DGS#3 talks to the counselor. Ex-DiL is supposed to be coming next week, so hope she can influence things in a positve direction.

Everything else still sucks. Still missing out on the new baby and it's killing me. However, I will not go see him until I am INVITED to see him, with ALL privileges normally extended to grandmas. I will still send him stuff, though.
She might keep him away from me, but she can't keep me from loving him! She's not going to get rid of the stuff, either, cuz she likes "stuff", and the things I make are beautifully done, if I do say so myself.

Now that would be an INTERESTING read <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> .... Neak could do a companion book ... Plumbing hints for the pass'ed (Aussie slang for getting passioned/ kissed .. & etc <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> ... just pronounce pass'ed as in passion lol)

Why am I up at 2.50am ? Cause mums get NO rest with 2 yr olds with imaginations <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> MUMMY!!!!!! 'AN MUM, SAW 'AN <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

of course I knew it was ok because the dog sleeps at the foot of his bed and he goes Dingo when anyone steps on the property, night time, day time, his hair bristles and the snarling starts .. he just looked up at me with a long suffering look as if to say ' its YOUR kid woman!'

I think someone was not alseep when DD was watching Buffy repeats <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> Going to give up trying to put him back in his own bed, he can sleep next to me or I won't get any sleep at all.

At least the dog is getting a good sleep ... I think DD & Jonnie are planning to break restrooms <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

AW - Where did you get the 2 year old?

Baby Mikey is no baby anymore.

Hi B hi Rella!

Mikey will always be my baby !!! of course just like the other kids <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Yes 7 July 2005 ... who would have thought ??? 2 years already!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Oh, I still think of him as almost a newborn. You mean he can walk?

Believer, I imagine Mikey is probably close to outrunning AW by now! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Maybe Mel needs to come over here and give AW some lessons in how to use a lasso. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I am going to pretend I didn't hear ANY of that!!! (Except the part about Job - great idea! And Neak's job, tee hee.)

Finally got AJ and BIL fired off this evening. I thought they weren't leaving till Monday morning, but they are squeezing another load in first. AJ got around to telling me this at oh, 10 pm. So I was a nice wifey and cleaned the truck up for him. *pats self on back*

Tomorrow for our Sunday afternoon matinee, we are watching Sound of Music. I don't think the kids have seen it since before they were of an age to care. I finally had to delete Mr. Limpett to preserve the Dervish's remaining brain cells, and they all have been trying to watch Sergeant York till the video falls to pieces. The old movies have really made a hit.

It's after midnight for me, so I shall bid you all adieu.

Guess I'm not going to get pass'd tonight, lol. It's so much fun learning new words... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

They just like Sergeant York because it has shooting in it that they're allowed to watch.

Though of course the girls like it because it has their favorite song in the whole world in it.

There's a song in Sargent York? What is it? Horst Wessel?

t&l

Ok then Neaksis, as no one else has had the courage to ask I will ...

what is the most fav song the girls like in Sgt York?? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

And is it the original Gary Cooper one or a remake?? Got the B&W one in our collection here! as well as John Wayne, Fred & Ginger in stacks of movies, Errol Flynn, Cary Grant have lots of those, .... & Bogie ...lots of oldies, we have a girls night and watch a few every now & then.

Had Mum & dad over for dinner tonight.

We were watching the news and they dropped in a feed from Afghanistan.
Australian troops were engaging ( sounds so harmless doesn't it?) with Taliban forces in street fighting in a village.
Shouting, guns, men swearing and 'directing fire' they called it , you could hear someone screaming, a complete and utter impression of confusion.
Yet it wasn't. You could hear the officers or NCO's directing the men, go left, go right, and go go go and warn about building this or that. It was the weirdest feeling to see it. Mum said it was like being back in the 60's & 70"s when they had the nightly news showing combat in Vietnam.
I didn't want to watch it, but I couldn't not watch it. I think it must be what he11 is like.

I'm not sure its healthy that we watch it very often either.

You're probably right, but how do you stop?

Sergeant York has a song?

Hello!?

"Esther went before the ki-i-i-n-ng, Esther went before the ki-i-i-n-ng, Esther went before the ki-i-i-n-ng, and she knew that she might die.

Gimme that old time religion, gimme that old time religion, gimme that old time religion, it's good enough for me."

Well, I guess that is better than the Nazi German drinking song. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

t&l

Oh. That song. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> Now that you brought it up, you have to put all the other verses, too.

Who can keep track, the way those two girls make them up?

t&l

My mother used to know Sergeant York's son, George. They were work associates.

I love the Sound Of Music. It's one of my favorite videos.

My daughter loves, and my son likes, Mr. Limpet.

My daughter's favorite Bible story is Esther.

I get a scream out of the fact 'The Baby Elephant Walk' song is from a John Wayne movie, "Hitari". I have never seen it and they don't have it at Blockbuster or my local library.

AW, I am going to redouble my prayer for the soldiers.

"It was(were) good 'nuff fer Aunt Bessie,
It was(were) good 'nuff fer Aunt Bessie,
It was(were) good 'nuff fer Aunt Bessie,
And it's good enough fer me!"

was and were are interchangeable, depending on how much of a hillbilly/country person you are.

There's more, but I'll have to think on 'em a bit.
