20274. Magoseph - 9/25/2006 2:33:05 PM Hello, everyone,
Flexy succeeded to have two signs put near our house this summer—he saw a group of workers taking down trees and bushes along the road that blocked drivers’ view and he just explained why he wanted the signs. To his happy surprise, they were there a few days later. The area has a lot of new people paying high taxes the last few years and Flexy presumes the township likes the new revenues and want no complaints. 20275. RickNelson - 9/25/2006 2:39:32 PM I'm also getting worried on my once quiet street. It's only two blocks long and has long been quiet. The past few years has seen an upsurge of traffic due to a small office building built at the start of our street and other businesses the next street over. We knew this street abutts the smallest business district of our city, but didn't expect this much traffic, as it never had been like this. All of a sudden we have homes with three renters inside, each with a car, and others who have no interest in keeping our neighborhood safe and clean.
Now more time needs to be spent, that I don't have, in order to start getting a stop sign at our one NO SIGNAGE intersection. Yuh wonder why it never got a yield at a minimum, but it has cars being outrageously dangerous on a non-stop basis.
Secretly I want one of them to have a huge crash. Then the city might pay attention and I wouldn't have to waste all my time. 20276. Magoseph - 9/25/2006 6:32:21 PM Tired of hair to my shoulders, I'm now going for a short haircut. See you... 20277. Ms. No - 9/25/2006 8:40:14 PM Oh my god they're going to have a girl! What in the world are they going to do with a girl??? What in the world am I going to do with a niece???
Oh, this is so cool! I can't wait for March! She's not due until then.
My brother just called to tell me the news and then he was soliciting help with names and I wanted to suggest our grandmother's name as a middle name but decided maybe I shouldn't for whatever reason and then he says "We don't have a first name yet, but her middle name will be Mamaw's."
Yeah, there are reasons upon reasons I consider my brother one of my very best friends in the world.

What in the world am I going to do with a niece???
Smooch her up, buy her frilly things, teach her to drive & fish & stamp leather.
All the normal auntie activities. 20280. Ulgine Barrows - 9/27/2006 6:59:00 AM 20275. RickNelson
Secretly, I wish I had enough ambition and bent towards malfeasance to be on the city council for rezoning.
Eh. I'd rather sleep late. 20281. Ulgine Barrows - 9/27/2006 7:20:23 AM 20127. Ms. No - 9/8/2006 7:06:14 PM
Wow, Ulgine, that is truly strange. Who'd've thought you could fall into a coma just from the common cold? Maybe he'll get progressively more like his old self as he recovers
Actually, he got some kind of nasty staph infection when he was in hospital the year before, due to a motorbike accident.
Eh, watch those hospital workers when they work on your loved ones. There are so many germs in hospitals. The workers are always at risk. And they work in a hospital environment. Eeeww.
Just politely ask them to wash their hands with regular soap before they touch your beloved. 20282. Magoseph - 9/27/2006 1:03:05 PM Ms. No,
I had more fun buying clothes for my nieces than for my boys. I have two nieces who’re sisters and this summer when their mother underwent a difficult operation, I was their consoler, just as I was when they were teens and had their hearts broken a few times. When they were little kids, I sent them T-shirts, jeans, and posters, even lots of candies, which they shared with their friends, now I remember.
There were times, though, when they scared me terribly. Knowing things about them put me in difficult situations--luckily their mother was always so much on top of things that I never had to betray the girls’ confidences.
20283. judithathome - 9/28/2006 12:34:41 AM Eh, watch those hospital workers when they work on your loved ones. There are so many germs in hospitals. The workers are always at risk.
This is so true...and you need to have someone there to check what the doctors are doing, too...luckily, my friend was there for his mother when the lab sent the wrong test results to the doctor and decided she needed an arm removed when all she had was a broken collar bone! 20284. Ms. No - 9/28/2006 8:22:16 PM Ai-yi-yi!!
Speaking of hospitals, any word on the little boy who got hit? I've been thinking about him all week and wondering how he is. 20285. Jenerator - 9/28/2006 10:44:52 PM Ms. No,
Nordstrom has the best hair bows for little girls! 20286. judithathome - 9/29/2006 12:31:32 AM MsNo, that story has a unhappy ending...turns out the gossip who called me with the story got it all wrong. He wasn't hit by a car in the street and it wasn't a minor injury at all. He was knocked backward onto the pavement by his own mother...she was leaving the driveway and he didn't want her to go and tried to open the back passenger door. She didn't know he was there and the door knocked him down...severe head trauma and he is still in ICU. 20287. wabbit - 9/29/2006 12:32:59 AM Oh geez. I hope he'll be ok. 20288. arkymalarky - 9/29/2006 2:55:04 AM Oh my, that's awful. 20289. Ulgine Barrows - 9/29/2006 6:23:21 AM 20285. Jenerator - 9/28/2006 10:44:52 PM
Ms. No,
Nordstrom has the best hair bows for little girls!
Not only that, they have cute charms and delightful teensy earrings, for the fashion-minded!
I love shopping at Nordstrom! 20290. Ulgine Barrows - 9/29/2006 6:25:50 AM 20283. judithathome - 9/28/2006 12:34:41 AM
... wrong test results to the doctor and decided she needed an arm removed when all she had was a broken collar bone!
Oh, that is not the first story I've heard similar to that!
Wrong kidney, wrong arm, wrong leg, gaaah.... Anyone going to hospital needs a watcher/talker to get through it. 20291. judithathome - 9/29/2006 6:46:47 PM They might have been more careful with his mom if they'd know he is a lawyer! Ha! 20292. OhioSTOPAS - 9/30/2006 1:13:00 PM Here is a picture of my son, the biochemistry grad student!
He's the young man at the back left, pursuing his, uh, studies in Boston. 20293. Magoseph - 9/30/2006 2:31:23 PM Good looking kid, Ohio, and such a nice smile.
