Your first name of Donna has made you happiest when you are expressing in some creative, artistic way, and not conforming to strict routine. In a large group of comparative strangers, you are quiet and rather shy, unable to express yourself, not really wanting to become involved in conversation. On the other hand, among friends with whom you feel at ease, you are expressive, witty, and quite charming. These contrasting natures make it difficult for people to understand you and can lead to friction in your personal life. You are deep, philosophical, and refined, but your extremely sensitive nature causes you to become depressed and self-pitying over any real or imagined slight. If you are not careful, people take advantage of your generous nature. You find the beauties of nature, fine music, art, and literature--all the deeper things of life--inspiring. The reserved, sensitive side of your nature brings aloneness and friction into your life, although you crave affection and understanding. You must guard against emotional excesses, which could result in depletion of energy, creating a desire for quick-energy foods. You could suffer through skin irritations, blood conditions, back trouble, and later, through arthritis. Heart, lung, or bronchial weaknesses could also result.

I can NOT wait for tomorrow. My kids will be back to school, I can prepare for Tommy's family party and our schedule will be back to normal. I've been SO lazy since last Friday.

In the middle of the night my back was feeling really sore, but since I was semi-sleeping, I couldn't figure out why. After I awoke this morning, I remembered all the fun I had tubing yesterday......OW, LOL

I can't believe my baby is gonna be 5!!!! After having 3 kids in 4 years, they were all so small for such a long time, but now that the youngest is 5, they're all getting so big!! That's why I keep thinking about #4, but we just can't. We'd have to have another bedroom or a playroom. John is also not up for it, as Tommy's pregnancy and birth was pretty nasty for him. I was really a hormonal crank and it took me a good two years to "get back to normal" He says he's not ready for that, should it happen again.

I am fine with that, because as the kids get older, we do want to be able to provide for them, and we do want them to be able to play sports, do scouts, etc...and our schedule is so crazy with 3 already.

I'll just have to wait for the twins to be born, and then we still have my other SIL and sister who haven't even started considering children yet.

What else......I think I'll get started on the morning cleanup and drive to one of the sledding favorites, as it's gonna be "warm" today and the kids will tolerate being outside longer.

Have a good one!

Big news: Yes folks, it's true. As you may have read, Blogger's parent company, Pyra Labs, was purchased by Google. This should only mean good things for Blogger users. No immediate changes will take place, except we're working furiously to get more servers in place to handle the extra load this news has caused. Stay tuned.

I just swiped this from blogger's home page......interesting.

I got a pound of HUGE ASS peanut butter cups for Valentine's Day. I'm thinking I should actually be at jazzercise right now and not eating my 2nd one, hehe

Happy Valentine's Day

The Count's Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder


It started with a simple affection for counting and
the terror it induced in others, didn't it?
But now it's turned into a full-blown life-
consuming chaotic nightmare of order,
repetition, zealousness, and perfectionism.
You used to be so grand, but now you find
yourself obsessively worrying over the littlest
things--like, maybe if you don't check the
light switch at least once every two minutes,
the electricity will go out (and damnit, you're
a vampire--that shouldn't be a problem!), or
maybe if you don't wash your hands until your
seams are coming out, you'll get some fatal
disease. Get yourself some treatment.

I'm LMAO at Elmo's results, OMFG....I just typed resluts

I am fed up with the spammers that keep changing their "from" address, so that my blocked senders list is basically useless. I've also tried to put certain words in my "delete off server" list, but those emails keep getting through as well.

I almost want to change my email address, but that won't stop it, I'm sure.

I feel like I am spamming the whole entire internet, but I just have to say how GOOD dinner was tonight.....

My daughter has the same teacher that my son had last year. They will be doing a Valentine's Day program, again, like Johnny did last year.....

Get the tissues ready......just thinking about them singing Valentine, featuring Martina McBride, has me tearing up..... Just picture 20 adorable 7 yr. olds singing this to their mommies.....maybe it's the beauty of the song, or the kids singing harmoniously together something they've been practicing every day for a month...whatever it is, you can guarantee that come next Thursday, about 10:50am, I'll be crying :-)

If there were no words,
No way to speak,
I would still hear you.
If there were no tears,
No way to feel inside,
I'd still feel for you.

And even if the sun refused to shine;
Even if romance ran out of rhyme;
You would still have my heart until the end of time.
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine.

All of my life,
I have been waiting for,
All you give to me.
You've opened my eyes,
And showed me how,
To love unselfishly.

I've dreamed of this a thousand times before,
But in my dreams I couldn't love you more;
I will give you my heart until the end of time.
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine.

And even if the sun refused to shine;
Even if romance ran out of rhyme;
You would still have my heart until the end of time.
'Cos all I need is you, my Valentine.

Oh oh,
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine.

Oh oh.

What to talk about.......how about some more bitter back-stabbing women in the PTA world, LOL
