20019. Magoseph - 8/11/2006 2:13:52 PM Hi, Wonk--Just checked the Weather Channel--it'll be beautiful all weekend. You're just accross from us, same weather usually. 20020. judithathome - 8/11/2006 6:31:44 PM Sorry about slighting you on the wedding update...my computer is crawling.
The wedding was gorgeous...they wore masks at the reception, beautifully decorated ones with feathers and jewels on them. And played the music from Phantom of the Opera.
We loved the area...stunning scenery and weather was delightful. We intend to return frequently! 20021. judithathome - 8/11/2006 8:50:47 PM What the heck is going on at WX? I know my computer is foulded up but nothing over there will load at all, even after 10 minutes...it shows Page Cannot Be Displayed. I was in there earlier...is this the end of WX? Ha! 20022. Magoseph - 8/11/2006 9:13:01 PM I just tried it and it's fine, Judith. 20023. Magoseph - 8/14/2006 1:09:29 AM Hey, Judith, how did your trip to the Dallas Museum of Art go? Were the Tiffany and American Sliversmithing exhibits worthwhile to see? 20024. Magoseph - 8/14/2006 2:56:03 PM Hello, everyone--looks like I'm talking to myself on this thread--nothing new, I do it all the time at home, going around muttering to myself about all the things I have to do these days. 20025. alistairconnor - 8/14/2006 3:21:57 PM Hello Mag -- You can talk to me!
Slow day at the office -- Monday of Ascension, nearly everyone has taken a long weekend. My kids are at a summer camp so I had no particular incentive to take the day off... I've finished my holidays, in fact I'm probably overdrawn. 20026. Magoseph - 8/14/2006 3:57:34 PM Tell me, Ali, what does mean this word bêcheur in French--a relative of mine over the weekend told me that my father was one all his life. Too embarrassed to ask her what it meant, I just want to know now what it means: Arrogant, vain de sa personne, critique des autres ou quoi exactement, s'il the plaît? 20027. judithathome - 8/14/2006 4:09:13 PM The train trip was wonderful...and both museum exhibits were fabulous. It made me so sad to see how beautifully made things were back in the day and compare it to what passes for "quality living" these days, though.
We decided to come back to Fort Worth for dinner...great new Asian/Mongolian Grill place where we ate like kings! They had a wonderful menu...anything you could possibly want. 20028. alistairconnor - 8/14/2006 4:16:13 PM From Patrimoine de France :
Personne qui se livre à des critiques malveillantes ou qui prend des airs supérieurs. Quelle bêcheuse, cette fille !
20029. Magoseph - 8/14/2006 6:35:19 PM Thanks, Ali--I must be going gaga to have forgotten the meaning this word. 20030. arkymalarky - 8/15/2006 1:07:34 AM Back to work today and schools starts a week from today. Both teaching and taking classes start next week. 20031. Magoseph - 8/15/2006 1:17:03 PM We won't see much of you from now on, I'm afraid.
20032. Magoseph - 8/15/2006 1:20:10 PM Flexy will have the two remaining stitches taken out of his left eye this morning. I hope that soon he'll be able to see to read. 20033. RickNelson - 8/15/2006 2:47:19 PM Hey Mago, kewl you got the 20K.
Best regards that Flexy sees as hoped. 20034. Magoseph - 8/15/2006 7:42:04 PM Hi, Rick, thanks for the good wishes. How is everything in your family?
Flexy has to have some tests made because one part of his eye concerning the macular degeneration is not healing well. We’ll know more in a few days.
20035. arkymalarky - 8/15/2006 10:20:12 PM I hope it goes well. I didn't realize he had macular degeneration.
Bob's mother had cataract surgery last week, but there were no complications and it was no-stitch surgery. Hopefully it will allow her to continue to be independent, but her knee is going to need some attention pretty quickly.
I won't be around much starting next week, but I will check in every day I possibly can, because that's part of my personal down-time that I make certain I get daily; and at the end of May I will be back to what I was when I first started in the Fray, except not posting from work. I can't wait. 20036. RickNelson - 8/16/2006 3:00:29 PM Good luck with a new year Arky.
Mago, as for family, my daughter is trying to set up her first room-mate situation. She's discovering the hard reality of debt load and having to work her butt off to pay bills. I've had to cut her off to make it a reality. She's been a tough nut!
Our son is having terrible twos but they're actually quite logical. He doesn't quite know why things are easy, why he can't have treats all day, or play into the night, or yell until he gets something he's not supposed to play with (cell phone, markers, unsafe toddler items, etc...). He's had his first huge fit at daycare, and it was so out of character the teachers were taken aback. I told them he's started that at home and his ways are changing.
Here we go.
He loves the park, the zoo, Carrousel rides, horsing around, reading, Winnie the Pooh, Elmo, Tellie Tubbies, and all the toddler toys...
Good fun! 20037. RickNelson - 8/16/2006 3:01:18 PM are = aren't easy 20038. Magoseph - 8/16/2006 4:53:48 PM Rick, he’s getting more independent, that’s all. He’ll settle soon enough once he accepts the limit about what is permitted. He sounds like an inquisitive, active, and interesting child.
My two sons straightened their finances once they knew nothing anymore was coming their way. It took a while, however, and it was my fault rather than theirs, such a soft touch was I for a long time.
