Okay, Roll Call...Where is Everyone? Time to check in!!
Thought I'd start this thread due to how slow it's been lately.
Roll Call!! Everyone needs to check in and let us all know what's up. We just had the kids here for the weekend and it was great!!!!

I'm here! Just busy at my internship. It ends in two weeks, I graduate in three weeks, and I start grad school in a little less than two months. I am in the process of interviewing for graduate field placement and I'm super nervous about it. The placement I really want is the most competitive. There are a lot of people applying and only six slots. Four of those slots are paid which would really be helpful. I don't want to get my hopes up, but I'll let you guys know what happens.
Anyway, that's a few reasons why I've not been around very much. I read more than I post though.

I'm here, too!
We are leaving tomorrow to go to Branson for a commissioning service for my son to become a missionary in Scotland. I'm sure it will be an emotional time for us all. They will leave in November. The roll call is a great idea! I just want to say that I have enjoyed this site and getting to know you all so very much. You ladies are the best

Here - just filling in with the VP today and busy for a change! Wet weekend, 7.5 inches of rain, but beautiful yesterday and today. Love sitting on the 18th floor instead of the 12th. I can almost see Marilyn, Betsi, and Gayle from up here!

Janet, I love your new picture!!!
I went to Red Deer on the weekend to visit my best friend and her fiance. I took Scott with me (her fiance is named Scott too and we all have way too much in common ) We went to help her out with wedding favors, and ended up getting 189 done before we ran out of her homemade candy. We played some board games throughout the evening, and then she and I stayed home to talk all night while the boys went out on the town! We had a 6 hour drive home yesterday, and we stopped at a bunch of places to take pictures. My parents were here in the city for the weekend and were sticking around until I got home before they left. We ate some pizza at my grandma's house and after my parents left, my grandma, uncle, and Scott taught me how to play Canasta and we played a couple of rounds before I went home to go straight to bed! So I've been hectic for a couple of days

Oh yeah and I want to add, on Saturday tickets went on sale for an AC/DC concert here in August. My brother managed to get us 8 tickets, really close to the stage! So many people couldn't get through, I don't know anybody else who is going. The concert sold out in about half an hour. So there will be Scott and I, my brother and his girlfriend, my parents, and two of my parents' friends When my brother called me to say he got through, it made my whole weekend

It has been slow here.
I am babysitting my great grandson furbie, he is a Pom and about 3 llbs. Tricksie with her ocd is driving him nuts and me too. Glad the groomer is here for her so that we can have some quiet time.

Here!!! I haven't been on as much because I'm trying to get some things done around here, but like always, not much seems to get done. We're suppose to have some nice weather this week so hopefully later I can get the flower beds cleaned out and get some flowers planted. Today I'm doing laundry.
I've had Karlie quite a bit the last couple of weeks. Damon has been in jail for the last couple of weeks and has a couple more. His problems from December finally caught up with him and he was given 30 days but he's been able to get out on work release and help Glen on the farm so it hasn't been too bad. Karlie was really upset the first week and you could tell that she didn't understand why Daddy wasn't coming home but she's doing better now. I'll be glad when this is all done. It's been hard on everyone.

I had a very quiet weekend. Jessie and Steve had his brother and his fiance up, so I didn't get the kids. I was glad - I need a little space. I did get bored though. I kind of set up the deck to be able to sit out. Saturday and Sunday I laid out on my lounge and read a book in the sun! Max and Annie are out there a lot.
I went to NYC yesterday to the dentist. Next time I go I'm going for some gum transplantation surgery I need. That will slow things down for about a month, but he promised I'll be done by summer. I left in the rain. It rained in the city, and I heard I missed the snow and hail up here! I was just sunbathing two days ago, and then it snowed. It will be nice over the weekend though. I should go to Yoga today, but it's cold and raining and I'm tired from driving all day yesterday. I'm listening to Anna Karenina in my car on my GPS. It is wonderful, and makes driving so pleasant.

I started in on the kitchen today just like I wanted to. Only did the top cabinets. Tomorrow I will do the bottom cabinets. Finally, I accomplished something. I'm just going to take my time. I threw out so much stuff just in the top cabinets, can't wait until the bottom ones are done. If I can get rid of more I'll have so much room...yay!!

I'm trying to be better at being on here. But now I have a prom dress to make so I won't be on here again. Between that and helping Jen get around in the mornings. Plus with hubby being home all the time now. To Much Stress..........
