from homespntruth :
Hey--I found your diary seaching for home schoolers. As you'll see from my profile, I am interested in the insights of home schooled children (any age, though I'm really looking for some perspective on the experience so some might be too young). If you know any fellow d-landers interested in participating in the project, please let them know about homespntruth. If you want to know more information, please stop by, leave me a note, email me, etc. Thanks!
from prissy-pants :
Just a note to say hello and that I hope things are well for you.
from allegedwife :
Where have you disappeared to? I miss your musings.
from jehsika :
ooookay...since proper D-land procedure is being thwarted...I've sent an e-mail to the addy I have for you...and SBC addy...drop me a note at [email protected] if you don't get it in a few days...and if this still doesn't work...I may seriously consider packing up and moving to Blogthing...I think that's the name...or SOMETHING...once my gold membership has run out.
from jehsika :
I'm resetting the password on my diary, hoping this will help the problem you're having signing on to my diary...you should get an e-mail with the new password through whatever addy you have signed up with D-land. Let me know if it doesn't .

Maybe it's not today's youth -- maybe that chick is just an incredible skank. Because that's a pretty skankish thing to do.
from bluemeany :
Congrats on the weight loss! A tip for the continuation of the skinny-fying: I don't know if you eat fast food, but I used to, and when I stopped, I lost 10 pounds in two weeks. Also, smoking helps!
from forty-plus :
Thank you.
from allegedwife :
A 'doona' is just what we weird Aussies call a duvet or eiderdown or comforter or quilt......nothing special, just a different name for the same old bedding :)
from jehsika :
nertz, it just bounced on me...if you can e-mail me at [email protected] I can resend.
from jehsika :
sent the password today, let me know if it doesn't arrive in a day or so...I'm not sure if I used the right addy...
from bluemeany :
Mmmm ... snickerdoodles ...
from bluemeany :
Hooray for nap time! I think there should be a National Naptime, like they unofficially do in May-hee-co.
from captainron :
I'm not sure why, but I'm infested with the damn things. They all seem to have survived the winter as fat as pigs too. Today though, not bird food for them. See little things make me happy...
from bluemeany :
You know, if I ever had to do as may things in one day as you just listed, my body would force me to rebel and take a nap. Anyway, I'm gathering that you're from MO since you mentioned St. Louis. My dear Husband is from there, too, and I lived there for a couple years when my folks worked at a children's home near Osage Beach.
from forty-plus :
Thanks for understanding!
from forty-plus :
Happy Mother's Day!
from bluemeany :
I haven't heard the term "as a mug" in like 10 years! Are you in the Midwest? Because that's the last place I heard it. Also, your kid is too cute!
from bluemeany :
Hey, welcome back! Glad you had a good time; holy crap I am SO ready for my vacation. What's the name of that Proclaimers CD anyway? I've never found out.
from wherwhenwhy :
How long do your holidays take? I want one of those, none of this two weeks malarcky. lots of love
from bluemeany :
I've been meaning to check out your diary (seriously) for quite a while because I noticed you "favoritized" me, and I was pleasantly surprised to find you a homeschooling mom, since I was homeschooled most of my life (and look how I turned out, ha!). Anyway, just wanted you to know the connection has been made, and I will make sure to visit you more often! - Meany
from wherwhenwhy :
sorry, that's 18/10/03.
from wherwhenwhy :
go to http://wherwhenwhy.diaryland.com/031018_10.html (or 12/10/03, was id that long agao, I've been here some time now, anyway, close the brackets woman, sorry) for "the golden rules of faffing time", it's a highly skilled art. Spread the word. lots of love and enjoy
from forty-plus :
Where are you? Missing ya, Y.
from jehsika :
hey there...I JUST now today (meaning march 11) checked my guestbook...I sometimes forget it's there...No I've never gotten Julia Roberts actually (but THANK YOU!!)...probably because I'm short and curvy in person and the lovely Miz Roberts is tall and lanky...though I used to get Gloria Estefan alot when I (and she) was younger.
from wherwhenwhy :
Things are going, not sure where they are going but it is better than the full ground crunching halt that happened back there, and you aren't procrastonating, you are faffing and there are rules to it, which I will dig out for you at some point. Faffing is fine by the way, it is a serious hobby over here and very well accepted as something that has to be done. Faffing time is essential. lost of love
from nynaeve16 :
How I found your diary..let me see..I clicked on a banner for logophobic, read a few entries, read his profile. Then clicked to see who linked him as a favorite, clicked randomly on profiles with comments, and found you. See? Most unusual circumstances. Thank you for adding me
from ghostiness :
Teehee! YAY Project Runway! And yeah, Kara did end up being a jerk. In truth, I kind of preferred Wendy's line to Kara's. Kara basically told us exactly who she stole her whole idea from. 30's pilots? The huh? *happy sigh* Yay for Jay!
from nynaeve16 :
hello..just thought I'd drop you a note. I stumbled upon your diary through most unusual circumstances, and now I'm hooked. If you don't mind, I'm adding you to my favorites :) Have a GREAT day -nynaeve16
from hissandtell :
Iron naked! Well, did the subliminal messaging work, or not? Oh, thank you so much for adding me, darling. I've read all your entries now, and am so delighted by how wonderfully effortlessly and amusingly you write. I'm sitting here giggling over your "Mr Magoo" entry, since I'm facing similar issues myself these days and refusing to acknowledge that my previously absolutely-perfect eyesight might be - gulp - retreating into some dark gloomy place to sulk forever. My husband keeps stroking (heh - I just accidentally typed "storking" - no doubt due to reading how you've been pregnant and/or lactating for 16 of the last 18 years!) my hand and saying, "Oh darl, I'm so sorry" every time I squint or can't read a sign at 500 metres like I used to be able to. Anyway, my pathetic failing eyesight aside, I'm looking forward to reading more of your musings. Love, R xxx
from jehsika :
Hm...surely you can have a password, though I must tell you...I can be terribly raunchy. I may not be to your taste. Don't feel you have to read mine just because I read yours. I'm only locked because I have to read and update from work and don't want my boss reading my rantings. That would be...uncomfortable, as some are about him. Anyhow...slip me a e-mail ([email protected]) and I'll send you a password. Otherwise I'd be wide open, for I'm a terrible attention whore and love for people to think I'm a clever monkey.
from ghostiness :
Hee! Maybe they do, GOSH! *hugs*
from ghostiness :
Hee. Here's a link: Just click the little button at the top and be amazed at the spooky accuracy! http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes1.htm
from prissy-pants :
Thank you for your note. The layout is by Raging Pistachio Designs. Nicola has great designs and I change back and forth between several of hers. Click the Design link on my page to find her. Thanks for the well wishes too.
from ghostiness :
Aww thanks for the addition to your faves list *blush* I greatly appreciate the note, too :)
from irisheyes70 :
Are you going to get a guestbook, or what?! :) I don't mind leaving notes though. Notes are fun. I really like your layout! I enjoy the soothing colors and the Charlotte Mason quote very much.
from forty-plus :
Eevon or Yuh-vonne ... I've been called MUCH worse!
from forty-plus :
What is HH?
from seducible :
My mother is 9 years older than you (shameful of me to say) and I played The Killers CD while we were fixing up our new house and she was singing along. She's not one for mainstream music of any kind but I think she liked The Killers. Who wouldn't? They've got one of the best CDs I have ever heard. I found your diary while looking for people who had Napoleon Dynamite listed as a favorite, and was intrigued by your diary. I've read each entry and you're very entertaining. Keep writing!
from forty-plus :
I just bought The Killers CD!
from lunablossom :
no, thank goodness, the clock is on his side of the bed! He definitely would have me iron, cook, and clean naked if he thought for one second I would!
from lunablossom :
I think your husband and mine must be long lost twins!
from sunnflower :
Hi from Suburban Island and thanks so much for adding my diary to your Diaryland favorites!
from forty-plus :
Thanks for the reassuring words. I don't know if he will get better, I have been asking him to properly care for his shoes since we got married nearly 20 years ago. You'd think I would learn to look down!
from forty-plus :
I smell what you're cooking!
from irisheyes70 :
Not sure what your entry was all about... But it sounds like you could use a hug. *HUGS*!!!
from inarticulate :
Hey, wow, another 40-year-old homeschooling mom! Cool! (My grandnephews tell me they would prefer if I stopped saying "cool" and started saying "tight," but I just ... don't want to. Then again, I remember being a teenager and hearing someone older say "groovy" and feeling deeply embarrassed for them. Sigh.)
from supercalifra :
Oh, please do not feel bad :) That thing does not calculate the stuff that really matters, anyway, because let's face it, my coolness pales in significance to yours. Who was the one with THE hair in 1982? Certainly not me!
from prissy-pants :
Thanks for the note. I am glad you like the quote. I saw that as a signature on an email that I got and I decided to adopt it as my new motto. I guess I get to throw out all of my Mary Kay and Oil of Olay and just grow old gracefully....whoo hoo!!!
from heart-drawn :
You never know what can happen in Dollar Generals' toiletries aisle. *shrugs* If it were me, I would have told the man his son stood a better chance at getting a woman than him, but I'm just mean like that. Anyways, I just thought it was humourous. Bye!
from supercalifra :
Dude, you have a diary? SWEET.
from irisheyes70 :
Thank you SO much for your comments. You give me hope and make me feel a little less like a nutbar. :) I didn't know you homeschool too! I'm not doing to well on that front lately. My kids are about a year behind. *sigh* We'll catch up... right? RIGHT?! :)
