:lol:

what about John, on Days of Our Lives, and his dyed, almost black hair and permanently arched brow and eye squint

"oh Doc we shared the best of times.........."

Oh he has mastered that facial expression! He does the arched brow and eye squint like no other!!!

I like to look out for the flared nostril also, now that is talent if they can throw that in there too.

HI SARAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ridgewalker]

Oh, I forgot to tell you guys-- I started Ezra on a children's DHA Omega 3 supplement, and a B complex. This combo is starting to gain popularity for children who have all kinds of issues: bipolar, ADHD, Autism spectrum, etc.

I just want to add my ringing "endorsement." I have noticed a BIG difference in Ezra's ability to focus, and control his temper. I mean, big. His teacher noticed it, too.

Just wanted to throw that out there for anyone interested. The Omega 3 that I got for him is formulated for kids, and I believe it is primarily cod liver oil. I give them to Luke sometimes too, although he can't swallow pills easily yet (yup, he's older, but he gags on them.) So he prefers to CHEW them. :shudder:

Hi Sarah!!!!!!! glad to hear from you. :)

off to feed the little onesd bye sillies!

Hi Sarah--

I'm sorry that things are still quite dicey, but wow--are you doing great under the circumstances!!

Thanks for the update--I think of you so often. Great plan to work as a volunteer at the school--you'll get to know everyone and when an opening comes up you'll get phirst dibs.

[Green12]

Sarah, so happy to hear from you! Thanks for the update!

Even though things are up and down you are slodiering on, that's the important thing.

I think of you often also, and will keep my fingers crossed on the job hunt. The school volunteering postitions sounds great to keep you busy, thumbs up on that!

Great news too about the Omega supplement, glad you are seeing imporvements with the boys on it

Hi everyone-

a quick breeze by, dad did not surgery today. He was unstable last night and so now the surgery is scheduled for 7am Friday morning. He took a shower today and passed out from the weakness and due to his heart being in such bad condition. So I am at my mom's and watching the little ones...talk to you all later...

so glad you dropped in Amanda.

prayers are coming and know you'll be so happy to have the surgery behind you all.

take care of yourself too.

Susie hope your feeling better.

Thanks Juliem.........i'm still around.

Okay, speaking of avatars..... . . .I'm doing this on a dare. I must change my av for a short while to show everyone how we looked as Zulus on Hallowe'en. Will thinks that this pic is the funniest thing he's ever seen, and has insisted that I put it up. I'm a bit askeert..... .

I remember when this shot was taken, but I do not remember his rank boldness.

Perhaps he does this all the time...... . . .. .. . .and I just don't notice. .. .....

[jerseyangel]

And he would be correct!!

I sure hope that's yer husband in that costume!!!

[curlyfries]

So good to hear from you, Sarah. Just a thought, but have you considered being a substitute teacher? My daughter's boyfriend was desperate for a job and applied in our school district and got accepted immediately........they are always needing subs. He hasn't gotten his degree yet, so the pay is not as much as someone with one. At least he's working.

[elye]

I sure hope that's yer husband in that costume!!!

Mygawd.. . ......I didn't consider this.

Now that you mention it. . .. .he is not that tall........ .......

Crap. . ......perhaps this guy was one of the band members .. ......

SAIRRRRRRRRR-UHHHHHHHHHHHHH||||||

Great to hear from you

I've been wondering & thinking about you as well.

Sucks to be dealing w/ that Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde kurrrrrrrrrrrRap.

But the good stuff is great to read.

I think I do good eyebrow & squint but, besides the absence of Hollywood good looks, it's that *&^%$#!@ nostril flare that would've made my acting career's zenith in the arena of a Dubuque Commmunity Playhouse.

Curse those master nostrilators!!!!!!!

********

Sooooooooooo .. . I'm in Phx & hit Mayo tomorrow at 1pm.

Brought the old Palm handheld for plane (not at all plain, natch) music (sidekick also does mp3s, but not near as loud as the Palm). Haven't used the Palm in so long, I'm getting some nice musical surprises.

Like Ned's Atomic Dustbin

:early90srockerface: (& if you know what that looks like, plz tell ME)

Anyone remember them?????

Despite the driving (pounding even sometimes?) beat, there's also a smoove lilting [ya I say lilting AND pounding, like some contradictionating juxtopositionificated wine snob] circular rhythm of much longer wavelength, enVELL-lupping it all in the rockin'est tidy way.

And if 'tweren't already a band name, we'd HAVE to add it to that ever-expanding scroll called "that'd be a good name fer a band!!!".

Spacebook question:

Does my old 'status' stay somewhere when I put up a new one?

I flip betw using the sidekick & a work pc & the difference is so tremendous I don't know wth's going on sometimes.

Jules spoke Swedish!! Learn that around soph yr of HS?

Suzey phluishishness gone? <psssst . ...they're callin ya floozy!>

Dammit Gian-knit I must've been offline or just braindead when this Smack & Skeeter biz hath begun.

WHY are they called that????

Tell MEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Undeniably nice ring to it, <ed grimley voice> I must say. Like Quisp & Quake. Smack & Skeeter. Bogey & Bacall ... .. ..nahh more like Quisp & Quake.

So much to comment on but too tired for that much typing/thinking!!!!!!!!!

I got input from the usual suspects and this is what they came up wif.

Mornin' gang!

Well, Ptaoughmghmnuss may get some answers at Mayo - - here's hopin', Ptaum!!

If one does not have medical insurance down there, does all testing, of all kinds, have to be paid for? I could see it becoming a nightmare for so many ill individuals (read: undiagnosed celiacs, for starters) who need the big, expensive tests for a diagnosis.

Well, there's a new president about to step in . .. . ..... .again, here's hoping. . . . ...

Gah. Giving a big test today on adverbs of frequency - - horrid, boring stuff, and there are always SO many questions and problems.

Always

Usually

Frequently

Often

Occasionally

Sometimes

Rarely

Hardly

Never

Gaaaaahhhhh .. . . ..STOP!

And it gets SO MUCH more exciting when we cover frequency expressions. . . . ... . ..

I can barely contain myself.

To mark this big day for the students and the amount of work they have put into this section, I would ask everyone to please use as many frequency adverbs/expressions as possible in today's upcoming posts.

I frequently look at my current avatar and shake my head.

Yes, hence the reason health car often arises as a topic of political discussions.

Finally got my data!! I'll be checking in infrequently for a sanity break, but mostly absent.
