Lord knows I'm trying to keep a smile plastered on this face. Just wanted to say that I'm horrified by the shootings at Va. Tech and keeping all the families and students in my prayers.
Megan's loan is in the bank. She got her vaccines yesterday although what a fuss. She was telling me they would cost $15 and rattled off a list of ones she needed; the last being rabies. RABIES, I asked. I called the health dept. Where do theses kids get their ideas from? She needed hepatatis A, malaria, diptheria, and tetanus. Cost: $98. The lady said these kids all seem to spread a rumor that they cost $15 or $20. So, we're all set....almost.
Her attorney called her today and said he changed her hearing because he had a court date on Thurs....the new date...May 17th. She was upset, of course, because she will be in Asia. She called him back so he has to petition for another date. Ugh...the letter came today from the courts. It was changed on April 13th. My confidence is lacking because he should have called sooner. She's still coming home tomorrow to work because she had all her working dates set up and had already made up her Thurs and Friday classes. She is working a lot of hours for those four days. I can't stand stuff like this.
I am still taking off on Thurs because we have to move her sleigh bed into my old bedroom somehow. Her double bed will be coming soon into her room that I was using. She has to be out of the rental house in Pittsburgh by April 30th. I'm back to unloading more stuff from my old room once again. LOL...so much for her brave comments last fall that she was NEVER coming back again.
I'm fussing over my hot water tank. It's gas...hate those things. It's banging and clanging. My BF keeps telling me to release the pressure valve and let some water out. Scares the crap out of me because I think it's going to blow sky high. I can't complain because it's a five year tank that is almost ten years old. I'll be calling Handy dandy Randy, my plumber, soon I think.
Anyway, no rain but no warmth either. Yesterday we had high winds. It may be 40 at best but we had no snow. Hard to believe it's April 17th.
I'm off to drag out some more garbage and fill up more bags, once again. My garbage collectors send those teensy cards which I always lose in the midst of my bills. I just noticed mine was due like a month ago. Hope they take my stuff. I've never had anything shut off ever but I did have my garbage left at the curb once because I missed that dang little card...oh well.....think Spring...
Thanks to Shelly for this tag. Love the fairy. It's a tree fairy called Willow by artwork from Cicely Mary Barker and is over 50 years old.

I sure hope Megans trip doesn't get messed up because of the court date. I wouldn't touch the gas water heater either. I'm terrified of gas appliances. Guess who has a gas heater and water heater? ME. I won't touch them. Thank goodness my stove is electric or I wouldn't cook. LOL Have a good Wednesday.

((Hugs)) You smile from the heart where it matters hon!! Isn't Megan still on your health insurance? Skye is still on her Dad's as long as she is in school. I hope they are able to change the date for court. Keep your chin up hon, things are bound to get better. I'm keeping You and Megan in my prayers on the smoke. (Hugs) Indigo
I hope Megan's court dates go ok. Glad she is still going to Asia. What an experience for her! She'll come home a different person.
Water heaters scare me, too! LOL! I've been told if it's making all that noise it's time for a new one. Luckily, like you, mine has lasted a long time.
Hope you have a good day.
Hugs,
Pam
I hope they can reschedule Megan's court day, and that she is able to take her trip. Our water heater burst last summer, and we bought an electric one to replace it. It has made a difference on our gas bills.

I know the VT thing is sooooo sad... Glad that things are moving forward for Megan! She must be very excited!
be well,

Isn't it hard sometimes to get everything done with kids, etc. And about that water heater, I was staying in my sister's house and I noticed some steam was coming out of the toilet! I called it to my sister's attention, but she said oh, it's nothing. Well, that night the water heater which was sitting at the bottom of the stairs blew up and went up 2 stories and about scared me to death! Course that is not going to happen to you. Don't you hate it when people tell terrible stories about something you are worried about? Gerry
Forgive me for being late!
I thought about you all night at work last night. Hope all is ok there.
Wow, lots of money for shots huh? I remember "back in the day" when it was free when our kids were toddlers.
Good luck today with the moving of the furniture...i am a bit confused when her court date is.....when it is past, all of you will feel better. I will never admit how many times i have had a late bill for much more than the garbage bill!
LOVE YOU SO,
lj
I am happy Megan was able to get the court date changed...that's great news. Hope all goes well...for her trip...I know it will. Your day sounds like mine...something is always coming up that needs attention...have a lovely weekend Chris...hugs and love to all,
Joyce
PS...your support at my saddest time, was so much appreciated too...love you!!
