<p>Last night I was working on pottery in the dining room, and someone kept jiggling the table. <a href="http://tinypic.com/r/s4xftz/7" target="_blank">This is the tail end (ha) of it.</a></p>

<p>Morning peeps!  <span><img alt="hello.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/hello.gif" style="width:25px;height:29px;"></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>It is <strong>KJ's</strong> first week back at work, right?  I hope that is going really, really well.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also, <strong>Missy</strong>, how are your family/friends in Japan?  I know you said everyone was okay - hopefully they still are after all the general fallout over there.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Off to vote, then to work for me.  Then I have GOTR, which you all know is a treat for me.  </p>

<p>Meh, nothing terribly fun here.  At least there's nothing really unfun either.  Just moving along...</p>

 

[Maples]

<p>Love the doggie vid <strong>Katholeenie</strong>. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hey all.  I hope you all have a great day.  The bad storms have passed through and the temps are supposed to warm up for the rest of the week.  I'm glad spring is here.  The grass is growing and the leaves are returning to the trees.</p>

 

[wipaddler]

<p>hey all</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Had a fantastic time hanging with my friend this weekend.  I also managed to get a ton of stuff done around the house and finally FINALLY found a comforter set that looks good with my bedroom set. </p>

<p><strong>Kath</strong>:  When a dog's gotta scratch, a dog's gotta scratch!  Cute vid.  We need more of those! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Meh indeed.  My day started at 12:45am, because of the horrid storms moving through. </p>
<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=344123&id=686068085&l=1001c74efa" target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=344123&id=686068085&l=1001c74efa</a>  (not sure how to post a link with actual words instead of the addy)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think that should be a public access collection.  I don't speak much of my religious beliefs, as I had religion crammed down my throat as a kid and vowed never to do the same to others.  However, I do still hold true to a lot of how I was raised, and I fully believe that I was under divine protection last night.  When you look at the pics and see how close falling /snapped trees and various debris were coming to where I was hiding in the house (in a closet, not 10 feet past the last window on the side of the house with hail, howling winds and lightning to the extent that I didn't need a flashlight or candle to see what was going on...), things could have been so much worse.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And very well might have been, if I and my neighbors hadn't taken down a lot of the trees in the front of the yard in the past 2 weeks.  Eek.</p>

 

[Runninlaw]

<p>Wow <strong>Ailarie.</strong>  Wow.  Glad you are okay.-</p>

 

[runningINnyc]

<p><strong>Wippy</strong> - LOVE the new bedding and your bed, looks great together!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Ailarie</strong> - you sure have had your share of "activity" lately, I hope you're doing OK and can relax a bit.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Kath</strong> - your boys never fail to put a smile on my face, Gus is awesome!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not a ton of fun or non-fun to report here, my little furry guy is going back to the vet for a follow-up today but he's started eating (and really liking) his special kidney-function food.  Which takes some of the worry off my shoulders.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Hi peeps.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ailarie, I'm glad you're ok!  Eeks!  remind me to tell you the story about my mother's cousin some time...also divine intervention!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>(((Dylan's kidneys)))  Trixie says feel better!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Wip, LOVE the linens!  I need to find a spring/summer coverlet for my bed...my down comforter is much too hot already.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Missy, I'm so happy your vacation was great!</p>
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>I love the new comforter too.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hiya <strong>RIL, boB and Maples</strong>!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So I packed 4 dresses, 1 suit and 7 pairs of shoes for my <em><strong>meeting</strong></em> tomorrow. <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"> <span>  I almost needed a bigger suitcase.</span></p>

[Runninlaw]

<p>Love the videos and the bedding.  That's all....</p>

 

[Auntie Moe]

<p>RiL, I haven't said it, but the work you do with GOTR is fantastic!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck, NCRG!</p>

<p><strong>Wippy -</strong> I love the bedspread.. and the bed, itself!  Very cool!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Maureen</strong>:  Did you smear peanut butter on Penny-girl's mouth (roof) before shooting that video, or is that licking a response to singing?  Either way - it's pretty funny.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yes - it is only April and I have had enough excitement in the past 2.5 weeks to last me the rest of the year.  I'd be perfectly content if stuff was status-quo for the rest of 2011.  Well, I'd like to get a PR on the HM in Grand Rapids, but that's a type of excitement that I welcome. </p>

 

[Runninlaw]

<p><strong>Thanks Maureen!!</strong></p>

<p>I resorted to PB on her nose...after giving her some on a spoon (which she wolfed down), then a marshmallow, which she ate too fast, then some honey on a spoon (same results as PB on a spoon), then a marshmallow covered in PB (which might have worked, but I wasn't fast enough with the camera phone.)  Hehe...it was a very involved process!</p>

<p>I love the linens too!!  The bed, night stand and dresser are my pride and joy.  It's the only good thing I brought back with me from CO.  I'm hoping to go back to CO and have the guy build me another night stand, lamp and stand up dresser</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We used to give our dog a bit of minty toothpaste and watch her flap her gums it was super funny!<br><br>

<p>this windowless office is killing me.  Just saying.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My coworker and I are conspiring to get a space near a window.  We've come up with taking over someone's window sill and claiming squatter's rights one some of the new cubicles they just installed in the office, as options.</p>
