I know the feeling, Sugar. I slept all morning and into the afternoon today. Just exhausted after whirlwind trip to parts south. On Saturday, DD spent the morning packing and then we got the truck packed (yeah, we had to take her to college in a pickup truck ), left early afternoon. DD's bf drove down too, and we all went to the fabulous play at this very cool theatre, Deertrees. The play was sooo good. It's just a lovely thing. They said it was going to be performed overseas soon, too, so our friend John is really getting on the map! We went out for a few beers after with John and his friends. He was shocked and amazed to see friends from high school and all over Maine at the performance.
We stayed overnight at a cheapo motel, which was absolutely fine, but it was funny because 5 minutes after we checked in, we looked out in the parking lot and it was full of bikers. Apparently some motorcycle event nearby. We had to get up early early early and head to Boston, where we spent the whole afternoon lugging stuff up stairs and hiking up hills (all the hills at Tufts are uphill). We got lost driving to the storage unit that DD and her friends had rented, and wasted almost an hour in heavy traffic, then loaded another truckful from the unit (which I must say was very slick -- this place had 4 floors of storage units; you had a security code to get in and then there were freight elevators, great big carts to load onto, garage doors to back your truck into; it was very easy, considering), and spent another hour or two unloading and lugging stuff up more stairs. Then we drove 6-7 hours home. We's pooped.
Gotta go pick up my doggy. She's waiting for me at the boarding kennel, no doubt drooling a giant puddle.
I was reading through a mailing list I'm on and came across this nauseating post. Not the prayer part, the last sentence...

Hi kids! I'm writing to the National Enquirer as we speak! heehee
Where is everrrrbuddy? It's September, time to turn over a new leaf. Next Monday I'm going to the Monday weigh-in. By Christmas I'll be a twig!
Fall always energizes me. How's the job front, Peachie? How's the darling d from overseas, Bagz? Where's Schatzi and Sugar and Wabby and Painty and Cherry?
hello miss bright eyed and bushy tailed kiwonk!!---dd is great--she misses her danish delight though---he is planning a trip here next month so that will be great----i am feeling dizzy/lightheaded today--i looked it up on the mental pause sights and it seems common??anyone???
i am here----i am at work----i am still lightheaded and kind of off balance---on the mental pause sights it is mentioned many times---are you serious kiwonkers about being dizzy---it makes me mad---i don't like the sensation-----i feel like donald trump.
I'm at home. With my computer. I will continue to monitor the herd from this location. I'm supposed to sign on the business Monday.... but then again, I was supposed to sign on Aug. 30th too. Lawyers love to send emails back and forth. Then I'm going to hang out w/ my sil for a week before I face the boxes of files and flotsam and jetsam that followed me home from the office........ and I'm starting a class on the 25th called "Life Transitions". Bleeeh. My life is still really sucky. OK. I'm watching you guys.
I don't think Kiwi has been through minnowpause so she don't know nuthin'. I have been there and don't remember anything about dizziness. Course, I do remember memory problems so who knows. No, I don't think I had issues with dizziness.
Wabby, you are the alpha cow and must come and lead us. I know there are bossier cows here who will moo you out of the way, but still you are Queen Cow. Post more. Tell us about the class and and the lawyers and the weather. Bad there isn't it?
ohhhhhhh wabster!!! glad you have the puter at homebase!!!! now you can post orders on the weekend----excellent!!!!----cowpern----i want to hear about people who are having my problem---i also had your problem--i can't remember anything or where i put anything of even what i did a minute ago-----it is very disconcerting-----i read on the menopause site about 'disturbing memory lapses'====haaaaaaaaaaaaaa i am totally disturbed-----
Shy, I once married a man who lost his short term memory in an automobile accident. I know how frustrating it is. Bagzie is just going through mineralpause. I don't know what to say about that. Just keep forgiving yourself and forgive others, too. I remember how angry I felt when old creepy Herbie invited all these people to lunch at Christmastime. They came because he paid for the lunches and he gave them gifts. He couldn't remember one woman's name and she sat there, all tight lipped, and glared. She wouldn't help him a bit. Everybody has these problems and there's no need to take it personally. Your problem will pass, Bagzie. I now remember everything .. well, not everything but I think I do remember things other people forget. I try to remember not to take it personally, too, even when it's about me.
), left early afternoon. DD's bf drove down too, and we all went to the fabulous play at this very cool theatre, 
Then we drove 6-7 hours home. We's pooped.
