Hello, everyone - this is my first 'daily chat!' I am totally procrastinating from packing for the camping trip, just because I always procrastinate when it comes to packing. I think I get my best house cleaning done when I'm supposed to be getting ready for a trip!
Cottage - I think you and I are sort of neighbors. I live between Trenton and Princeton, NJ. My bf lives in Norristown, so I spend a fair amount of time on the PA turnpike! Haven't those been some awesome storms the past two nights?
Ruth - My two sons just went to their dad's house yesterday evening after being with me for two weeks straight, and I experienced a similar sudden awareness of...quiet! (And not being asked to fix someone something to eat/drink every few minutes!)
Loriann - Good luck with the job hunt!
Belle - Way to go checking out the restaurant ahead! Sorry I have nothing to offer about your wheat question - just starting phase 2 today. But I can tell you I had a sudden craving for bread when I walked through that aisle of the store yesterday (I was looking for the tortillas.) It was weird - I'm not even a big bread eater, but that smell - wow. I headed out of there fast!
Cyndi - Good luck tomorrow with the flat!
Pearlrose - Glad to hear DD2 doesn't have stones. I had to have my gallbladder out, and before that the stone attacks were pretty bad.
Femmecreole - Good luck with the teaching job. What do you teach? The oil spill stuff sounds nasty - yuck! Do you live near the river and have to smell it?
Weezle - Poor little guy! I have a son starting kindergarten, so he's probably close in age. Hope your son heals soon!
Well, time's up, I should take a shower and start packing. Thanks for being a welcoming bunch of ladies - I look forward to spending more time here as I continue on this SB journey!
