Forget doing the windows, today (you're out of luck, David)! :lol:

I ended up helping my brother and nephew unclog my mom's stopped-up
drain pipe where her washer drains out. We had to go to Lawrenceburg and
rent a 100' "snake" and run it up into the drainpipe. It took several hours, but,
the problem's solved - it would have costs her quite a lot more to call anyone else
in to do it!

Ahhh, well, tomorrow's another day - AFTER I go early vote!

We're expecting a low of 36 tonight! :eek: My husband is ultra-sensitive to heat and still needs air conditioning, and I want to fire up the furnace! :ggreen:

I think it'll be a couple of mugs of Earl Grey and a pile of quilts for me tonight! :wink:

Thats so awesome Shannon.

OMG, 100 foot snake Annette. Thats a long un'. And it had to a fun job too. :lol: I hate snaking anything, seems like about once a year we are doing it though. A nasty job for sure, escpecially if you are messing with the bathroom pipes.

All of you guys are in the 20-30's but it finally got to upper 40's lower 50's here this morning and I am freezing to death. I sure hope there is at least one pair of pants that fit the little one from last year to wear to school today.

Brrrrr, I am going to throw a few logs on the fire and warm it up in here.

Have a great day.

*sigh*

Life is so cruel. Just when I thought my days of depression were over, they came back, and worse than before.

You see, I met this girl named Tamara a couple months ago. She was a caring, loving person, and maybe, still is somewhere inside. But there was a difference in religious beliefs and she decided to break it off. Not only that, but I believe she was using me like you'd play with a yo-yo...up and down and up and down. :( Why am I so unhappy? :cry:

Jeremy - it would do a world of good if you'd write off girls right now. I'm serious. Concentrate on you and you alone. Forget dating, for now. I think you want a girlfriend so badly, girls can sense it. And that terrifies them! You're just too young right now for girls to really appreciate you. Wait 10 years and boy, you'd have them all just dying to be a steady girlfriend. Patience my friend.......it will happen. Just take a breather from dating - is my most kindest, sincerest advice that I could ever give you.

Mary - I just about have. I wasn't meant to have that sort of relationship with her and I am seeing it now. It's becoming clearer she would have been a stumbling block in my Christian walk anyways.

Ed.... :lol:

I'm glad that you are coming to that conclusion Jeremy. One of these days you'll find the right person. Trust me.

I GOT A NEW JOB!!! :D I was going to be laid off by the end of November - my company is being bought out. I'll be down at the other end of the Boardwalk now at Showboat. It's all a part of the Harrah's corporation which is an EXCELLENT company. That's a major worry off my back.

That's so Great Stephanie. You figure that the number of gamblers hasn't gone down, so they have to go somewhere. I am happy for you!
