OK Pepster,

I'll discuss amongst myself. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hope is one of the undergirding factors that enables one to carry out the cyclic process :

1) Imagine
2) Plan
3) Execute
4) Evaluate

....and back to "Imagine" to repeat.

This is a very useful process, but it rarely runs without hope.

Pep is made of feathers and is posing philosophical statements for discussion.....MrsW is going to throw up. AD is in a terminal do-loop. And I am going to bed. I've had a cookathon tonight. Wine and sleep sounds like the plan. A couple of ounces is all.

I need a massage.

Tomorrow is casual day at work - and right after work, I have to go to church and coordinate a wedding rehearsal. So, I can go Saturday and do whatever it is the bride and her mom need done.

Life may feel as if you are constantly getting kicked on a daily basis, living is about picking yourself up each day and going on and on and on regardless.

Just imagine a girdle under something and you've got undergirding in your mind.

Pep,

I'll have you know that I no longer have issues remembering the day of the week now that I'm working full time again. In fact, I *****really***** know when Friday's here because:

A. It's payday
B. Tomorrow I get to sleep in

However, it has certainly cut into my posting time, which I'm sure is tragic for everyone <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />, but hey, when I do take the time to post, it's usually to very important threads only. Like this one. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Re: Hope is not a method.

I don't get it.

But then today someone told me I was having a blond moment, and in fact, I don't have blond hair, except the kind that comes from Clairol #whatever. What's up with that?

See now, I think THIS is where ALL my issues originated...<img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />...In the first grade, during our morning restroom break, I discovered that I had sported my Thurs-DEE Drawahs on, say it ain't so, TUES-DEE...*THUD*...I was simply USELESS to anyone for the rest of the entire whole danged day!!! Couldn't get any of the pressing first grade business done...DON'CHA'KNOW? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> And THAT, suffice it to say DOC, was where the whole downward spiral began...Whut's a girl ta do? BIG OLE SIGH... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Mrs. Dubya<----Finally Pantiless and Lovin' It!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

I won't even go there with the panties thing! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

NB - good to see you again. It's been a long time. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Pep - Hope is not a method...it's a city in Arkansas! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

BTW - is your daughter working at Universal in CA? If so, we're practically neighbors. On a clear day I can see across the valley at the park from my driveway. If it's in Florida, well...
