Jen, hope you're feeling better.
Cindy, ouch! I cut some nerves and tendons in my hand when I was a kid. My arm was in a cast for weeks.
Ezri, glad you enjoyed the practice.

We are making a big thrift store run today. There is a huge thrift store near where we used to live, and everything in the store is half price on Mondays. It will take us about an hour to get there, but once a year it's worth the trip. There are smaller stores here that we shop at, but often we can't find what we're looking for in them. This one is absolutely huge, and if someone can't find clothes there they are simply too picky. Last time I went I got everything my kids needed for winter, including coats, and spent about $70. On Mondays you can get jeans for $2, coats for $4-5, and shirts for $1-2. Everybody needs a bunch of stuff so we decided it's worth going today.

I love thrift stores!!! It's amazing the stuff you can find. You do have to go in with an open mind, though. ie if you are looking for an Old Navy blue hoodie, you might not find it. But, if you want a medium weight long sleeve shirt, you are bound to find something you like!
I had to take my dog to the vet this morning. She had a cyst rupture over the weekend. It got really gross. I was afraid they would have to keep her for surgery. Luckily this vet knows my dog, and knows that she's all growl/whine and no bite. I mean, trimming her nails sounds like you are ripping her limbs off... He was able to shave the area and clean it. He wants to get it healed up a bit, the eventually she will need it surgically removed. Good thing I love the mutt.

Hello everyone,
My day is going well. For Dh it has been tough though. Church is tough and computer problems. Best Buy ripped him off (at least that is how he feels). We have spent more on his computer than a brand new one would of cost. Best Buy backed all of his things up, but he can't find them.
Still no news on my brother. I thought we would of heard what is going on with him by now. I've been waiting for my mom to call me. I guess No news is good news, right??
What a beautiful fall day here! I'm in the mood for a weenie roast and a camp fire. Anyone care to join me?

Today is our anniversary - 18 YEARS!! Wow! Can't believe that we made it this far!
We had a nice weekend. We left the kids with my SIL and went to Cincy by ourselves. We went to see Fireproof on Saturday night and out to dinner. Wow- Fireproof made me cry and it was hard to watch! So many reminders of what we have been thru... Great movie with great salvation message.

Congratulations, Melissa.
We saw Fireproof too. It was a very good movie. Hopefully many people will be helped by it.

I so want to see that movie
Yeah, it was amazing. The acting was a little bit low-budget-ish, especially in the beginning. But by the end, I forgot all about that! I am so glad that they did not hold back on the salvation message. It would be too water it down. I want my parents to see it!!

misaham--Happy Anniversary! We celebrated our 18th last Monday. Gotta agree. I can't believe we've made it this far.
Donna--if there's a movie that you and Brian really want to see, I say MAKE it happen.

I can't even fathom 18 years of marriage. Congrats to you both, and your hubbies of course! LOL
We're coming up on 10 years in January, and it feels like forever. I can't believe we've made it this far either...and we wouldn't have without God, that's for sure.

You enjoy making the rest of us feel old,  don't you?
18 years isn't all that far away know. It feels like it has just flown by. Where did the time go? There just is never enough time.

Ten was a big one for us, too. We didn't celebrate 15, instead waited until 16. It's almost like that year we were apart didn't "count", so 16 was really 15. If that makes any sense?!
I still need to go run. Now I know why I always run first thing--get it out of the way! Somehow I mis-read my schedule and didn't see tht my coach had me down for a swim and run. It wasn't until mid-morning that I was posting my swim data that I saw the run. Ops... At least I have brand spankin' new shoes to run in!

Happy anniversary, Melissa.
That thrift store is in Willowick - very doable for you. I can tell you how to get there if you like. They did a little redesigning since I was there last. Now, instead of just regular rows of racks all over, they put those circular racks up front. Translation - they have less stuff than they used to. We still found quite a bit, but I didn't do as well for myself as I had hoped I would. I did find a good barn coat for $5, a pair of jeans, and a couple of sweaters, so I'm still happy. The girls found a lot as there is a lot more in smaller sizes. All in all we racked up a $300 bill, but since all was half off I paid $150. We have 6 huge bags of clothes.
I am having dog issues as well - as in dogs who won't leave me alone. For some reason they are both extra needy today. They're driving me nuts.
