Got into a bit of an argument earlier this week with someone on a discussion forum in regards to the discovery of Laci Peterson’s body – and that of her unborn son. The people in the forum were going on and on about how it was ‘by god’s hand’ that Laci’s body ended up on that shore…and on Good Friday, even! It was ‘god’s work’ I posed a simple question to the forum members: Where was your god the day she was murdered? The answers I received were varied. Some called me a heathen…and infidel and I even was accused […]
don’t know, for the life of me, how people can have more than one cat! I have enough to do to keep up with my ONE. He likes toilet paper – we’ve established this. Rips the stuff into shreds and trails it all over my house, if given the opportunity. If he gets ahold of a roll of it, it’s all over the kitchen, living room, my office, bathroom…trails down the stairs….I find piles of it in my rec. room down stairs..my bathroom, my bedroom and sometimes he even makes it up onto the third floor. I can’t even hang […]
Yesterday I did a brainless thing. Really, I know you’re shocked. I had my feet up on my desk, relaxing. I was on-call yesterday, so I really couldn’t commit to doing anything but sitting around waiting for the pager to go off – – which it did, incessantly. So I was at work, at home – working on graphic/web design for a client and I was burning a whole buncha CD’s (wouldn’t you like to know?). I must have burned 50 CD’s worth of stuff – – so the CD-ROM’s door was open and closed and open and closed all […]
There we are – – on the mountain in Tahoe! That gorgeous scenery behind us is the mountains and Lake Tahoe itself – breathtaking, isn’t it?? 🙂
My coffee shop was officially sold last week and Gary now has full ownership. He has all the baristas announcing it to every customer who walks up to the counter – as if it’s ground breaking news. Usually (pre-Gary), I would walk in to get my coffee, the radio would be playing some REM or Nickleback…or sometimes Shakira or Norah Jones, the music always gave it a nice atmosphere. The other day I walked in and the music was blaring form the speakers (so much so that I almost had to scream my order at the barista) and they were […]
Today wasn’t such a bad day to be thrown back into a work day after a long vacation. I thought it would be worse – but it was actually pretty easy. Woke up at 7 a.m. – got the kids off to school…made some coffee – – relaxed for a bit then got ready and left home about 8:30 and headed into the office until about 10 AM where I did absolutely nothing except talk about my vacation. Then headed up north to see my 5 patients – – of course each of them would be in some sort of […]
So much to catch up on now that I’m home from vacation-land. I had a blast – – it was TOO short and I wanna go back! lol Thank you so much, S. for the travel updates in my blog while I was away *HUGS* You did a truly awesome job of it! I loved the travel hints lol No worries, I didn’t eat any yellow snow – just beer. 🙂 C. and I had so much fun. Skiing has now become my new sport. I’m totally hooked on it. As much as I fell – – as sore as […]
*posted by Shae while I’m on vacation* This will be my last travel update. Lisa just phoned from Denver where she was sitting in a smoking lounge getting her nic fix. It isn’t bad enough that smokers are herded together in a small area, but this particular area has a one drink minimum. She was puffing on her smoke and thought she could get out of there before the waiter spotted her, but here he came. She ordered a diet Pepsi and didn’t even have time to drink it because she had to get to her gate. Is this an […]
*posted by Shae while I’m on vacation* Some people! Lisa called a bit ago and I gotta say some people are asses! She and C. were skiing today when she had to stop and was even off to the side when BAM! some maniac crashed into her. The maniac didn’t apologize or even ask if she was OK. Nope, not a maniac thing to do. Instead he cursed at her. Unbelievable. Poor girl couldn’t catch her breath for a full fifteen minutes because the maniac had hit her so hard. She was crying and wasn’t sure if she could make […]
*posted by Shae while I’m on vacation* Lisa called to let me know she and C. are having a great time on their ski vacation. She is really catching the skiing bug and has had a few spills. There is one spill she took that is worthy of mentioning. She was swooshing down the slopes, looking very cool I’m sure, when her skis began to part and before she knew it she was face down! Her legs spread wide with huge skis attached… her arms were out to her side with her ski poles straight up in the air. To […]
