1. Thank you to all of lovely ladies (and men) for showing my husband such a good time. Your comments were all so nice to read. He asked me last night, “Was I okay? How many bad comments did I get?”. Bad comments? Who does he think I hang around with out here? Only the best 2. Yesterday a favorite recipe of mine was featured over at Angie’s. Go take a peek and see how yummy it looks. Mmmmmmm…. 3. For the past 2 Sunday’s we have had dinner at my Mom’s. If you follow the link, you will see her with some of the food she served as well as my other sister (the blogless one). My mom is currently without a computer at the moment because hers crashed and totalled itself. Never fear, a new one is one the way and will change her life forever. Do you know she was still using floppy discs and running Windows 3.1?? Holy hell. 4. The best news I’ve gotten in a long time came from my cousin, Meredith. She’s pregnant again! I am so happy for her and her beautiful & quickly growing family. Oh, and she finally got the care package I sent months ago. Good news all around. Yes, indeedie. 5. My life is very hectic at the moment and I don’t see it slowing down much before January 1st. I apologize for my lack of commenting. I’m trying to squeeze it all in but so far I have not been very successful. When you get stressed, what is the first thing that gives in your life? 6. We had green beans for dinner the other night and my 6 year rushed outside right after finishing her plate. When I went out to check on her I saw her covering up a shallow hole in the yard. I asked her what she buried and she said “I planted the bean seeds so pretty soon you’ll have a green bean tree out here, Mommy!“. 7. Lillian is healing nicely. She had her sutures removed Monday and was not a happy camper. As soon as she saw the vet in the white coat, she began to growl. It really made me nervous because I have never heard her growl at a human before. They asked me to me muzzle her so they could safely remove the stitches. Poor girl. I was not impressed with this vet. She seemed to take offense at the growling and had anything but a good bedside manner. Looks like I won’t be going back there again. I’m not ashamed to admit that I am very much of a vet snob. 8. I’m on episode 11 of LOST and I have only fallen off of the treadmill once out of shock (when Kate is leaning down and the Marshal opens up his eyes) . Yeah, that one almost killed me. 9. By the way, I’ve been drinking lots of water for the last 2 weeks. I mean LOTS. No soda either….so when will I melt? 10. I didn’t post on Survivor last week. I was just too pooped from all the photo contest fun. You didn’t miss it, right? I think I may stop doing them because they take a lot of time and it seems like only 10 or so people really are interested. You tell me. Survivor Recap – Yes or No? 11. Have you heard about the Pumpkin Carving Contest that Leanne is hosting? I’ll be doing my carving this weekend. Go on over and enter. It should be a scream :-) 12. Phoenix is having a Photo Contest too. I’ve entered, have you? 13. My very good non-blogging cyberpal, Sherry, is celebrating a birthday tomorrow.

When I get busy, the first thing that goes is my exercise routine. This is unfortunate.
You’re going to have a green bean tree?! How sweet is that! Maybe she can plant some chocolate seeds too?
Windows 3.1? Floppies? Your mom is gonna love her new toy. I’m with you on the vet snob thing. If they aren’t down on the floor scratching them behind the ears with a bit of smooshy “ohwhattagoodboy” doggie talk…they’re out.
My thirteen are up!

my youngest planted sweet peas this past summer, and when she saw the pea pods that come after the flowers, she picked them for dinner!
you’ve left lots of links for me to follow, i’m going to go have a look and will be playing the 13 later this morning as well. happy birthday to your friend sherry!
I’m a total vet snob too. I figure as much as they charge for seeing my dog they best treat her like ROYALTY. And you know, serve me coffee and scones or something.
I love these thursday 13’s. Maybe when I am not so stressed I will do one. What goes first? Taking care of myself.
Have a great weekend. My weekend starts tomorrow!
I think it is great that you do the Survivor recap – you enjoy it! I have also been really busy and haven’t been able to watch it – that’s why I haven’t commented.

Congrats, Meredith!
I’m glad Lillian is healing. Poop on that vet, I’d find a new one, too! Especially if Lillian doesn’t like her. There’s a reason for that.
No soda, lots of water, and treadmilling you say? You must not have any body fat at all if you haven’t melted. Hm.
I have my 13 up…and I’m having a birthday party for Sherry tomorrow over at my place…so don’t forget to come over.
when i’m stressed, the first thing to go is my sanity. LOL!
i saw Survivor. was spooked with bobby jon.
Hiya MommaK, here’s my thirteen!
http://sleepingmommy.com/?p=39
By the way, the water is good for you, it will not melt you.
Hey, I still use floppies! My OS is Windows XP, though.
Drinking water is my one consistently healthy habit. I probably drink close to two gallons a day, more on the days I go to the gym. When I was a pre-teen I met an elderly woman who had the most beautiful skin I’d ever seen; it was like velvet. She told me she kept it that way by drinking lots of water and that has always stuck with me all these years.
Here’s my 13.
Whoo hoo!! Here’s my thirteen also!!
Windows 3.1??? I’m having horrific flashbacks to High School! Good to hear good news about your pup. I miss my dog terribly – my husband took her with him when he left for KC last Saturday. I don’t know who I miss more
Here’s my 13 http://babymakesthree.blogsome.com/2005/10/27/thursday-thirteen-2/
First thing to go? Whatever I really don’t feel like doing. My sweet girl, Colby, always picks up my slack. What will I do when this 18 year old leaves me one day? I don’t want to think about it.
We had frost last night! We are carving the pumpkin this weekend, too.
Glad to hear Lillian is getting better. I’m with you on being a vet snob… The first thing to go when I am stressed and busy is free time.. hahaha

My 2nd round of Thusday Thirteen is up! Have a great day!
Recap = YES!
FLOPPIES! OMG! I haven’t seen one of those in forever! And 3.1? *falls over with a thud*
Your hubby is just the sweetest thing ever!
My 13.
The first thing to go for me is house cleaning. Sorely fall behind on that when I am stressed. Floppies OMG!!! Carving our three pumpkins this weekend! Can’t wait. Here is my linky…

Last night’s episode of LOST was a rerun of the season premier. This may be your chance to get caught up. The first 3 shows this season were literally crammed with information. Next week’s looks to be a rerun of the second episode, too.
My list-if that’s what u want to call it is up- hey better late then never- take care sweetie-glad all is well-jak
You keep kicking my ass every week with my TT, you’ll be taking it over, Miss Thang! :mrgreen:
I have been thinking. This Thursday 13 takes considerable thought, and YOU DO IT EVERY WEEK!! You the champeen.
I couldn’t make the 13 this week. Actually I didn’t even have 1 of the 13. You rock MommaK.
I need to drink more water. Hurray for you! I drink way too much soda…
Here’s my 13, I’ll link to you! http://jenanddavin.blogspot.com/
The first thing that gives when I’m pressed for time is definitely feeding the kids.
They can rummage and fend for themselves.
Just kiddin’.
My life has also been extremely hectic lately. Maybe it has something to do with the end of the year coming. When things get hectic, the first thing in my life that I give up is sleep. I normally don’t sleep that much, but I’ve been cutting back to about 4 hours a night. Its awful.
Hope things get less hectic for you soon.
No soda here since July (well, a few sips here and there, but no entire cans or bottles!) It was TOUGH at first, and I did get caffeine withdrawl, since I cut down to one cup of coffee per day at the same time. CONGRATS on that, MommaK!
I did visit your mom’s blog yesterday. LOVED the photos of her cooking (she looks so happy!)
I do enjoy your survivor recaps…
