31 for 21: Four things

Some of you know how I feel about participating in forwards or email chains or whatever...I'm a party pooper and I never participate. But since some of my oh so dear friends sent me one today, and they put me in the "friends who will respond" category, I did oblige this once, so as not to disappoint... So since I had to go to the trouble of filling it out, I thought it might be a good post, in case I don't come up with anything better. If you're looking for blogging fodder, feel free to take your own shot at it...

Four things about me that you may or may not have known, in no particular order.

Four jobs I have had in my life:
1. Wendy’s, Madisonville, KY
2. Special ed teacher, Salem, MO
3. Patient accounts supervisor, Urbana, IL
4. Practice Manager, St. Joseph, IL

Four movies I have watched more than once:
1. What About Bob
2. The Matrix
3. Runaway Bride
4. Sneakers

Four places I have lived:
1. Irving, TX
2. Hot Springs, AR
3. St. Louis, MO
4. Wayne City, IL

Four TV Shows That I Watch: ( I watch all of Dulcy’s plus these….)
(Since you didn't see Dulcy's... it was The Office, Scrubs, Everybody Loves Raymond, and King of Queens.)
1. CSI (Vegas and Miami)
2. House Hunters
3. Iron Chef America
4. Pushing Daisies

Four places I have been (for fun - not work - ha!):
1. Singapore (well, kind of for work and fun)
2. Montana (does visiting family count?)
3. Austin, TX (also family, but fun too)
4. I don’t have a 4th…no honeymoon, never had family vacations, husband hates to travel…sad, I know.

Four of my favorite foods:
1. Chinese
2. Mexican
3. Homemade chicken pot pie
4. Anything sweet

Four people who email me regularly: (This was supposed to be individual names, but I couldn't get that specific.)
1. My clients
2. Parents
3. Employees
4. Sister

Four places I would rather be right now:
1. Anywhere in the parallel universe that’s 2 years behind this one.
2. Singapore
3. (Can’t think of two more…that pretty much covers that.)
4.

Four friends who I think will respond:
(I didn't really fill this in since I only sent it back to those who sent to me.)

Four things I am looking forward to this year:
1. Braska turning 1
2. New landscaping next week
3. (Can't think of anything else...again, sad.)
4.

  4. I'll have to sit down and make a list sometime of all the places you've visited that you don't remember :o)

    Would you like turkey pot pie for Thanksgiving this year? I think I can arrange that with the cook...

  5. Hey, these are great to read! I really enjoy your blog! And turkey pot pie sounds WONDERFUL!

    Oil Belt Camp or Christian Camp of the Living Word or Big Spring, TX, etc. might be "places you've been for fun."

    Love and "early" Happy Birthday!

Oh happy day, Less question mark!

As a follow up to yesterday's post, I got word today that we will NOT be assigned to the new guy, but we will have an experienced coordinator after all. I feel SO much better. I also learned some other info today that made me think I still have some kinks to work out, so I'll be taking care of that this next week. I'll be SO glad when this transition/IEP stuff is behind us. I want to do the very best I can, but there's part of me who wants to just hide and let it all happen without me.

31 for 21: What to say

I have encountered plenty of people who ask "How old is she?" when Braska and I are out together here and there. They always guess her age about 5 months younger than she is, but that's ok, since that's what size she is. I have said several times that I can imagine it will bother me a bit more, although still not a huge deal, when she turns one next month and I see their reaction to that, as she still is in her car seat/carrier when we're in a restaurant or in a store since she doesn't sit up. Today, I met some friends for brunch. The waitress was a nice enough, very young girl, and she started cooing at Braska right away. That's nice. I don't mind, Braska likes the attention, and I'm proud of my cutie. The waitress asked her age, and I told her 11 months. She then said, "But she's not walking yet?" as she noticed that she was up to the table in her car seat/carrier. I just agreed and said, "Not yet." She said she h

Was there a line??

I assume that you went to vote, either today or earlier if possible. I expect that of you, know that straight up. How long did you wait in line?? And throw in the state you voted in, just for fun. I'm really curious if all areas have a big wait or if it's just the more congested ones. I voted Friday absentee/in person, and we waited about 15 mins or so. It moved VERY fast for a big line. There's just one place in our very populated county to do the absentee/in person voting, and it wasn't bad at all for what I thought it might be. If you haven't, GO VOTE people... again, please just know what you're voting for, either way. You may just have to live with your choice. God Bless America!!
