Re: What's happening in your life?
Congrats Kath and Lisa.
Michaela, I got dragged up on stage with an improv comedy troupe once. It all happened so fast I didn't even have time to become scared. I'll take singing some ooohhh's over what I had to do!
This has been a trying week. A couple of people that I care deeply about are going through terrible times. I spent a lot of time this week just trying to be supportive.
Hubby is in Germany this week and (Z and Kay don't tell him this coz I'll just deny it), I really miss him. Probably because it's seems like it's been such a looong week. When I talked to him this morning he told me he was really homesick, too.
Top it all off with the snowstorm today. Our part of the state got between 9 and 17 inches!! I think we got something like 10 or 11. I couldn't get the snowthrower working so I've been shoveling on and off all day. My son, Tom, just showed up to save the day! I can hear as I'm typing this that he got the stupid machine going and he'll probably have the entire driveway done in half an hour.
Took the opportunity since I was housebound to put up two of my Christmas trees!

Re: What's happening in your life?
For the first time since June, I have an entire weekend free!! No conversions, no family events, no hospital visits, no concerts, nothing scheduled!!! I don't know how to act. I'm even sending Hubby on an all day errand tomorrow to check on the beach house.
I've made a very long list of things I'd like to accomplish during this free time. I'll be thrilled if I get even half of them done.

Trust me, I am extremely thankful for the beach house, but you have to remember that it comes with a huge mortgage and takes alot of work. The true motivation in owning it is that we could give the money to the mortgage company or to Uncle Sam -- and Uncle Sam doesn't give us weekend getaways in return. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)">

I have great news--my oldest, Rachel, has been accepted to the college of her choice--University of Montevallo-- and she has been awarded a full academic scholarship for all four years! We are so proud and thankful!

Re: What's happening in your life?
Awww...thanks, guys.
I wish I could say she takes after me, but truth is, when I was her age, I couldn't have come close to doing as well in school as she has already done. I scored high enough to be admitted to the Univ of Alabama, but it was by no means scholarship-worthy.
She is much smarter than her old mom & dad!
What I know I have passed on to her is my real love of music (she loves the Eagles), and I am proud of that, too!
