Hi

How is everyone?

Corinne is singing on saturday the 3rd.

The thing is ...I do not know what time she will be on.

She is singing Matchmaker from Fiddler on the Roof..not Hello Dolly

Work is busy. I feel like i am getting the hang of it. I am not nearly as fast as the rest of the nurses.

My mom has had her 2nd cataract surgery. all went well.

her mother is ill and I could just scream.... the drs talked her into letting them do a SPINAL TAP ...(made my mom feel guilty actually)...on an 89 yr old!!!

JERKS they are. she is winding down ...slipping away and they stop at nothing.

I will feel awful if they find something....I just feel they will not.

They did not clarify with my mom just WHEN they would do it so someone would be there.

Medicine is nuts, rediculous!!

Hi,

Corinne and Abby need to work all 3 weeks or they do not get paid!!

So, with that said, I am looking for the dates to horse camp.

If they conflict, I am sure she will opt for horse camp.

Me too on the weather.

Will try to find out about the performance: time, etc .

send me info on carter too.

Anyone want to enjoy the Kevin view on life for a week??
I'll pay the postage.

sheesh that child thinks he is entitled to a lot.

I'm Soooooooo Cold!!!

I want our very very mild winter back! Thank goodness none of that snow this morning stuck. I don't know if I'm going to make it through too many more winters!

Yes, Carole, we would love to come to Corinne's Hello Dolly musical. Give me the details! I will put it on my calendar tonight! I have gone back to the old fashioned day planner strategy. I would do pretty good if I just looked at it! I picked Emerson up from school the other day and started to head home knowing Carter was staying after for play practice then realized I was supposed to be bringing Lizzy home too! Poor girl. She seemed ok though. I hadn't gone that far but the gates were closed by the time I got back. I'm getting old!

Carole, I looked into the mud camp thing. My co-worker is sending her sons the last session since that is when their friends are going. Which sessions are Corinne and Abby working? I'll have to talk to Jim about Emerson and the summer soon. I've been putting it off although the other day he did mention that he knew I was working this summer. I thought he would try to re-negotiate that point.

I miss ya'll!!

work is nice. different kind of busy. one hour is your limit..wake up, drink, get dressed and be gone!!!

Well, not really.. just seems so.

Basketball is over. Angie and I spent last friday night at lindenwood with 10 or so team members.

Basketball and roller skating in the gym, pizza then movies til 3:30A.

Nice to Hear from Ya'll

Julie,

Don't worry about the Christmas cards. I was just kidding. I do think it's becoming a lost tradition though. I generally use a photo we have happened to have taken during the year, but if it gets to November and we don't have one, I do get kind of panicky. The one we took had to wait for Thanksgiving since the playground was by my Mom's house. We had taken a photo there years ago before Emerson was born. It was me, Jim and Carter and the fourth seat was empty. I have always wanted to go back and take one with Emerson filling in the last spot. Finally got the chance. It is the last photo in his "Emerson's Story" book that I made for him showing how he completed our family. He LOVED it.

Glad to hear Parrish is reading. I didn't realize he didn't dive into it beforehand like you do. Carter has actually stopped since he seems to be so busy with everything else. I think I'll make him go to the library again though. He would prefer computer games, I'm sure but once he gets back into it, he'll like it. Thanks for the inspiration!

Carole, Congrats on the new job. Guess our lunches will be a thing of the past. Hope things are going smoothly for you. Do you already know people there?

Work is going well and I'm getting in the swing of running the kids around after school. Carter got a part in the spring musical, Aladdin. He is Jafar, the villian. He was surprised he got it since he's not much of a singer. I've set up 4 voice lessons for him starting next Monday to help boost his confidence. He used to sing well so I'm sure he'll pick it up again. The teacher sounds like a piece of work so I'm interested in meeting her. Definitely a confident woman who doesn't mind telling you how great she is! She has made it quite clear she doesn't put up with tardiness so let's hope for no big traffic jams after school on Mondays! The play is the last weekend of March if anyone wants to come.

So, Carole, are you leaning towards White Station? Those AP stats sound great! Didn't realize you went to the St. Mary's open house. I know you had talked about it though. I think Maria's daughter, Lizzy will be going to St. Agnes. She said SBA was her second choice. Guess we find out all of that stuff come March. Got the letter about registration today for next year for Emerson. He's had a great few last days. Returning after Christmas was not good. I think his teacher was very frustrated with him. She is all smiles lately, thank goodness. I think we'll be doing the parent/teacher conference next month for him :)

He intends to tryout for the baseball team in 2 weeks.

I tried to tell him to find out what they do for conditioning and get started!!

we mourned to loss of LSU to Alabama... actually we mourned the no show of the coach and quarterback.. b/c that is what it seemed happened. and really want to know what happened to the person that consistently called bad plays.

well so long to the football season for the saints... they had a good run.

nuff for now
