I am sitting here this afternoon bored to death and cold! It is hot outside, but if we turn up the ac then the upstairs gets way too hot to go to bed at night so I freeze during the daytime. (I came back in here on Wed morning and decided to just combine posts)
I am listening to the new neighbors moving in. They have nice looking furniture and two of the people moving stuff in were pleasant when I went out and got the mail so maybe we will finally get some decent folks next door. Sure do hope so.
My dr does not waste any time. I got my appt for my ultrasound and my mammogram, both on the same darn day and it is a week from Thursday. At least I am not pregnant so holding my 32 oz of water won't be so hard I hope. I just hope I don't have to wait long.
The car has something wrong with it. It is something with one of the camshafts so they are working on it. At least it is covered by the warranty. Jack took on extra warranty when he bought it also so I think we have 5-6 years instead of three, something like that. They are trying to finish it for us today so I hope that they do. I realize how much I miss a car now that we have two!
UPDate: We picked up the car yesterday afternoon after I posted this and it is all fixed. It was some kind of solenoid, cam, valve thingy that I guess Ford has had trouble with, but the guy said he had never seen it before in a new car. They replaced both of them I guess since it was two of everything, reset the computer stuff and it is ok now. I did ask him if it would happen again and he said no, so I hope not.
Susan: I emailed the website to Thomas and told him he could shock his friends at how spectacular his knowledge is. The kid has a photographic memory so he ought to have fun with it. If I were born one day later I would be among some big people, like the phycisist who invented farenheit temps scale, the author Cervantes, a medical researcher named Gibbons, and the birth of Pompey. My birthday is shared with Ed Sullivan and Brigette Bardot, "a really big show" and really big boobs!
I think that Henry Fonda has the same birthdate as I too though he wasn't on the list.
Maggie: I figure out the points for two servings of each thing except veggies then that is all I make. We can't over eat because there isn't anything to overeat. Like I take 8 oz of ground sirloin and make 2 meat loaves instead of a whole meatloaf. It has made a real difference for us. If I wasn't still having weird female stuff going on, I bet I would be at least 10 lbs lighter. I have kept to my pts religiously except for a couple times and then well within my extra 35 weekly and I never use the activity pts. Who knows? I am just glad I am moving right along again.
Jean: I do feel so much better this afternoon. I was just awful yesterday, enough so that I called Jack to have him come home early and take me to the hospital, but after about 10 minutes, I started burping and letting gas and the pain let up some, though it did continue on and off all night long and I would have to put the heating pad on and take it off and on and off, etc. Kelly said they are sending the Wii in to get it fixed. We have a Mario game that Thomas likes a lot and I am sure he will bring a bunch with him. It can be hard to get the exercise program stuff I have found. Everywhere was sold out a few months ago for it.
Well, I guess I should find something constructive to do and put on a sweater and socks. Have a great afternoon and if you don't hear from me tomorrow, consider this my Wed post!

WED: I am sitting here this morning getting ready to pay bills then later will go out and get some hair color and come back and get my hair colored and the bathrooms cleaned upstairs. I want to get my haircut so I might do that after I color my hair but since I have to put on two colors now, I might not have the time. I want to clean the whole downstairs tomorrow so I may have to do it first thing on Friday before I go over to the school to work the clinic.
I got my shoes and am sending the one non tie pair back. I just don't feel secure in them. I have totally flat feet and these have one heck of an arch support in them so I fell like I am walking sideways, but I imagine I will get used to them. It isn't the first time shoes act funny on my crappy feet.
Well, just wanted to check in and say all is well. Have a good hump day! Faye
We're going to combine orders to save on shipping. It irritates me that they have little kids selling stuff. It's bad enough when the high school kids sell stuff to earn money for their trips. I always buy because people bought from our kids. We don't get many door-to-door because there are no kids on our dead end block. I hope Jack's thumb isn't a major problem and your vehicle is just a minor glitch. 
from Iowa!
