feeling a little disconnected

[Guest guest]

You always bring a smile. I hope you feel better soon and your hubby

too, so you can have only one child again. All men are like that believe

me. I had a daughter and a big son.

Asunto: feeling a little disconnected

so here's a general update on our lives!

's easter egg hunt went well, he was excited...I wasn't so excited,

as he woke up at 6am to start searching! ICK. I think we went a little

overboard in our egg hiding, though -- my neice called to report she

found 10 eggs on her hunt; found 87! LOL. Like I said to my mom,

though, every little childhood ritual is such a big deal to us that we

tend to take it to extremes.

I'm doing okay. I cut out a ton of christmas ornaments on my dad's

scroll saw while we were at my parents' -- he has a much better saw than

I do. Since we've been back, though, I haven't even sanded the

ornaments...I'm too busy playing freaking Final Fantasy on playstation!

And reading email -- holy volume.

Speaking of playstation, is utterly hooked. He's taken on a

decidedly grey pallor from hours spent in front of the television.

Somehow, strangely, it's boosting his language, although that seems

absolutely impossible. Maybe it's because now he has something he

really WANTS to talk about?

It is pelting down freezing rain here. My joints are screaming and my

finger is soooo swollen...I was supposed to buy groceries this morning

but I felt too awful, so I'm tackling 8 loads of laundry. What fun,

what fun!

Marc is Marc. Sick with a cold. You can imagine what a joy THAT is.

How a 6'7 " , 290lb man can become a squalling infant I have no idea, but

I witness it every single time the guy gets a sniffle. <sigh>

Had a dream last night I was playing Final Fantasy. Woke up with my

hands working an imaginary controller. I NEED to get a life!

:-P

Sounds like fun! Glad he enjoyed it!

Sounds like you'll be kept busy this summer, if you ever get off Play

Station...

Ugh and ouch!

It's the Man Cold of course!

Yes you do!

Now see if you can figure out what the answers are to!

That happened to me a lot when I was hooked on Rubik's Cube. Jeez, that must

have been 20 years ago or more. I finally solved the damn thing, But it

drove me bonkers until I did.
