Too cloudy and chilly to go to see manatees.

[Guest guest]

the grands came over and although we were going to see manatees, the

boy threw up and we aborted the trip.

I did let them play in the water and wear themselves out a little so

they would nap when they got home.

Jim and my son visited on one bank of the river, and the kids and I

kayaked to the other bank and they played in the sand and eventually

were wet from head to toe.

I am tired enough to nap myself.

I am taking adderall, and I didn't get to sleep until after four this

a.m.

I was on Provigil for a while but it made me too grumpy to teach. If

youcan't find your happy face in the classroom, high school kids will

eat you alive.

I promised them I wouldn't take that med on a weekday again.

Courage, how are you doing?

Imogene, missing you..my Florida connection.

Sandie, I think it is marvelous you troll her at night. With work

schedules and time zones, we can keep this site alove most of the time.

I am going to get a nap now, I want to be able to stay up to watch

Desperate Housewives tomorrow night, and it will be a school night.

No potty stories today.

Millie seems somewhat improved.

dehydration a factor, for sure!

Anybody started their Groundhog day shopping? I am having trouble

finding boxed cards to send.

Later,

Carol

All you beloved friends. I miss you too. We went to the allergist,

and she laid the law down in a nice way that I have to get this

carpet out of the house. She is very concerned about my allergies.

I will send you a letter I wrote to my kids.

But first, I will tell you about today. While I was in the bathroom,

I decided it was a good day to put the trim up around the shower. The

job came up real nice. Then after lunch, I was in the middle of

paying bills and guess who needed a bath, after his nap, yesterday,

and not in the tub shower. He would not settle for anything except

the shower I had hung the paper trim in.

I had to put my bill paying aside, and get that shower ready. I knew

the paper was too wet to put the shower curtain rod up, but he was

adament that we had to use that bathroom so I put the rod up, and of

course tore up my new papering job, It will have to be mended now.

I gave him a bath and then went back to bill paying. Oh yes, in all

of this I made him lunch and supper.

The letter I have is very long. Perhaps I should send it seperatly.

Love a bunch, Imogene

HI Carol,

I'm feeling better today - physically and emotionally, thanks. I must ask, what

is " Groundhog day " shopping? Are you pulling my leg here or is this an American

thing?
