Lohunny, in my neck of the woods, common vision sees that 1) Kerry kills babies while Bush does not; 2) Kerry does not support troops; 3) Muslims kill Christians and the right thing is fight back. I'm not kidding at all.

That isn't uncommon here, either. In my kids school, Bush won overwhelmingly because he is pro-life. No governor in history has signed more orders for the death penalty, but because he has taken a stand against unwed mothers and is firmly for "cute" life, he's our boy. It kills me.
However, I refuse to get worked up about this. Even though I am a person who was mildly inconvenienced by terrorism and feel my vote should have counted twice. |
I have to say one more thing. I know of a big church that maintains several "ministries." One of these is a pregnancy center (anti-abortion). Another is day care centers. They have several day care centers. All the kids in these several centers are fully paid by their parents. See the irony? Babies who need government help to grow up will be be mixing with the children of these people. Maybe irony is not the word.

My ex-laws were Eyetalians from New Jersey... maybe the mafia IS still alive and well. The only Fred that Rove reminds me of is Freddy Kreuger. I'm moving on. May send in dues for the ACLU. Or something. Or go buy a gun. That'll be helpful, doncha think? I just want to smack something. Ahh.... I'll go knit.[[COLOR=Red]SIZE=3]FAST and FURIOUSLY.[/SIZE][/COLOR] I like y'alls ticker scales!! |

fatter than ever
Just being a copy cat and starting out with my own weight ticker to try to get motivated. I seem to have gained 5 lbs somewhere and they have GOT to go. Must exercise more and surf less. Feel like a giant blob.
Ahem, one of my divorced brother's long lost loves is back in town after her marriage broke up and Mummy thinks that something might be up. Watch this space for more news. Inspired by Painty, I am now attempting to knit a scarf. It's just stockinette (is that how you spell that?) stitch and already I've messed up. Oh crafty me. |
Sug Sug... welcome to the world of FROGGING.... (when you tear out your knitting you go rip it, rip it rip it..... AND stockinette isn't the best for scarves because it curls up on itself... just knit ALL the rows (you'll get garter stitch...) and it'll lay flat.....

Failed. Try again.

Here, I'll do it, Peachy

Or not.
I've been away on my "birthday present". I decided since I probably wouldn't get anything else anyway, I wanted to go to a play in Portland for my birthday. This play was written by the guy we went to see in Fiddler in NYC last spring. He is the bf of the brother of my friend who moved to Ore. Anyway, we saw the play yesterday afternoon and it was fantastic -- very funny and sweet and original and interesting. We stayed in a nice Marriott the night before. Ate way too much all weekend, you know the drill. So, after a nice couple of days, what do we do on the way home? Get into a nasty sniping pointless argument about why shrub won the election. With DD driving and trying to inject moderation into the escalating "discussion". Sheesh. Basically, DH attacks my views and then gets all angry when I defend them. So, anyway that pretty much ruined my weekend and now I have a migraine and I'm refusing to help him with his boat tarp. Because I'm a mean vindictive old shrew. So, how was your weekend? Kiwi |
I think you're sweet. His tarp doesn't need any help.

Peachy Cow-- will you still be my friend when you've lost the last 16##?
Kiwi... I hope your argument is not all resolved. I hate when a fun time is ruined (especially if retroactively) by something relatively minor. I'm glad you were born. Glad you had a celebration. And hope you and DH can figure out what pushed you over the edge. Sometimes I go into "debate" mode with my DH when he just wants to vent... then he feels "unsupported" and gets snappish. It works both ways at our house. We are learning (still) to say what we mean, instead of something quick and simple. We got a cat. Name suggestions welcome. I hope I can love on her instead of eating.... Does it count as advertising if I tell you about my website? I have one for my counseling practice and one for my daily journaling and knitting. If you want the url email me at 4dana"at"airmail"dot"net |

2. Louise 3. Heebie-Jeebie How come your ticker shows beginning and ending weights? I don't remember what I put down at the goal. I'll never know if I lost it or not. |
Where do I go to get a ticker?
My puter is still screwy. I will be emailing w/ a new email address soon. Stand by for news. Losing weight is excruciatingly slow. I'm at 152. Down from 158. This has taken almost a month. 3 weeks anyway. I did Leslie's 4 mile super duper fat burner (or something like that) on Sunday. I bought the dvd from Amazon, and wouldn't you know it, it's defective. It gets stuck at the beginning. If you can get it past the first 2 minutes it's fine. So I've sent it back. I'm back to the regular 2 mile walk tape until I get the replacement, then I'm gonna burn all that fat away. Wooo-hoooo!!!! Happy birthday Kiwi!!!!!! :hat: Painty, you should name your cat Peanut. That's the name I wanted DD to name her weinie dog, but she chose Katy. Katy is not housebroken. She visited this weekend and she left me a gift. |
