gotcha Jiffy! My first highlight today was getting seeds in the mail from Jiffy - thanks so much!!! Second, was that when the car place called with the quote to fix the brakes on our son's car, it was 1/2 of what he was quoted where he lives up by the college he just graduated from! That was very do-able!

Sounds like you're having a Great day Um, my highlight???? , ..........Let's see , I had to get up for work @ 4am, work with 200 teenagers who think I'm their mother, drive about 12 of them around when my work shift was over, come home and have my visitation with my friends 2yo and the father who she has a restraining order on (I'm the "neutral" person , at least noone said I had to be the "sane" person) and now it's pouring rain and I guess this is the highlight, the gardening forum home alone hanging out with my forum friends, I think I may even crack a bottle of wine!

Wow Mel... what do you do with 200 teenagers (my 1 drives me insane!) and why do they think that you are their mom?
A nice night home with your wine and sewing sounds like a plan to me! Though the dancing sounded fun in the other thread too! Whichever you end of doing, I hope you have a very enjoyable evening!

why do they think that you are their mom?
I work in the kitchen at a boarding school, I'm their mother, teacher, cook, nurse, taxi driver, shrink etc. , and I have a ball doing it! They're a lot of fun. I'm on my second (or third???) glass of wine , so I guess it's staying in for me!

one highlight of the day for me, and one i forgot to post for the kids on thursday...
mine: hubby, who has always liked baseball, and has done quite a bit of umpiring, got a phone call to umpire 2 semi-pro games today. his first in that level!
the kids: mat, my younger daughter's bf, was walking to the park in front of the library, when a man came up to him asking if there was a heavy set blond woman in the library. (there were 2 working at the time, but a total of 3 work there.). mat didn't answer him, but kinda kept an eye out. when kate got there to pick mat up, he told her to go in the library and tell the ladies while he kept an eye on the man.
when the police came, turns out the man was already barred from the library, and when he was frisked before being put in the police car, the found a brand new box cutter on him. mat & kate felt like hero's, but they didn't leave the library until the ladies had locked up and left for the night.

well, the funniest part was "call your mom, tell her about it, and TELL HER TO PUT IT ON HER WEBSITE!" and yeah, i bet they did. they were freaked out, so were the library ladies, and the good thing is the cop who came, we've known for years. he is a bit of a hard@$$ but, he told the ladies, "i see this guy around here again, i won't wait for a call, i'll just haul his butt off!" and since the library is next door to the police station, that isn't an idle threat!

ok, so i am talking to myself... but, my highlight today... when i went to my lion's club meeting, i saw a man that makes me smile every time i see him. he is 80something, a long time (25+years) lion, and a holocaust survivor. and the reason he makes me smile so when i see him, is that besides being a very nice person (he & his wife both are), he is one of the most giving and friendly people i know. and, he only gets to get out for about 5 hours a day (he's on oxygen over night, and sometimes during the day, cause of his age and he only has one lung), but he always saves part of his "out time" for lion's club. what a giver

Hey Cindy, could you, um, too ...and it was so weird....we were in the restaurant for an hour and my cell phone rang...it hasn't rang since I got the new one (after I ran over the other new one with the lawn mower.....again)...just went straight to voice mail...anyway, it was Rachel. She asked me if I was in Shiloh's Road House...and I said yes...and she said she was in the parking lot and saw my truck...she was right there in the restaurant eating supper that close to me for an hour and I didn't even know it!
