    Hi Tater!

    If you're going to use my recipe, PM me. I made a mistake when I posted it. :eek:

    Our TaterTot casserole and Monkey Bread were both delicious!

    Well the election isn't going to end until tomorrow night or Thursday with 191,000 absentee votes still out, so I am going to bed. I've been up since 3:30 this morning with NO NAP. Not used to the time change yet!

    Electoral Votes @ 11:10 Eastern time:

    Bush - 207
    Kerry - 199

    270 needed to win...

    Pleasant dreams all!
    §ue (I hope!)

    Boy Howdy and good night all. Spent the entire day (before 6 am) at the polls as I am an election judge and we were swamped. Had 1150 vote (normal is 650) with lots of energy around a local tax and of course Bush/Kerry. Very tired.

    Wyoming is 68% Republican and went for Bush by, duh, 68%! And the added sales tax failed! Who is dumb enough to vote to increase their own tax?

    Guess I'll awake in the a.m. to find out all the details. I am truly exhausted, without reserve because of my lengthy illness.

    God bless all. No matter what happens or what vote happens, GOD IS IN CONTROL.

    Good morning all:

    Well, unless Kerry concedes, we won't know the results until noon Thursday! Is this becoming the norm? :confused:

    Electoral Votes:

    Bush - 269
    Kerry - 238

    When Brent finishes his school goals for today, we will be baking. It is another cold, rainy, day and having the oven on will feel good!

    It is 36º right now with a projected high of 54º and rain. Winds are 20-30 mph.

    Cruising,

    Morning Shawna:

    If you don't help - you don't eat!

    From what I hear on the news, Kerry is expected to concede around 1:00 today.

    Brent has eaten breakfast and is doing his school work. It's time for "The Grandma" to eat something!

    HAGD all!

    Hey yall. Sue, I did make the monkey bread. It was yummy just the way it was. (well, I personally didn't taste it, but it DID get eaten!)

    We have a funeral today then we are feeding the family at the church afterwards. I dont have a babysitter so I'll just go help out in the kitchen.

    Also, I think I have gout. My Daddy used to get it alot, and I have had one episode before now, and it is miserable. I have all the classic symptoms, except from what I've read, its rare in premenopausal women. And in my other foot I have plantar fascitis, so I am hobbling around here today. Guess I wont make it aerobics this week. :(

    WEll, yall have a good day. Its not supposed to get above 80 degrees here today. Finally!! Hopefully we'll be having "fall" weather soon.

    Well, Mama, since I am going to the store to get those other 4 things....isn't that considered helping???? I will be going to the store this afternoon or shortly before noon. If ya need it before then call me! Don't forget I need the recipe for homemade stuffing.

    It is cold here today and would settle for 50-60 degree weather but since I moved 370 miles south the winter won't be as bad! Whoohoo!

    Just wanna say this is NOT a double post! Went to run errands all day. Have been to 3 stores and 2 more to go. I dislike shopping of any kind extremely. All it means is I hafta spend money! Well, laundry is DONE! Thank goodness. I have 1 room left to deep clean and that's it.

    Tater is plantar fascitis the same as plantar's wart? I have a small one and saw that stuff you buy to freeze warts will remove them after a couple of uses. I'm going to try as soon as I can afford to buy some.

    STILL nervous! I talked to the Nurse Practioner I see at the low cost clinic and she kept reassuring me that this could and probably is just my fibrocystic condition and the description I gave her didn't sound anything like cancer. I'm STILL nervous tho. Insurance starts Dec. 1st.

    Hubby came home from work early to be with me. Wish I didn't have AWANA tonight but the night will go faster, I guess.

    Popping in to say good night!

    Brent and I baked "Molasses Sugar Cookies" for Christmas and they are safely tucked away in a 'tin' and hidden from Grandpa (who has a terrible sweet tooth and never gains a pound)!

    I'm not sure what we're baking tomorrow, but I know we have to try and find some more tins. I think we need to make a run to the Salvation Army store...

    Pleasant dreams all!

    §ue (cold and rainy here)

    Night Sue! Congrats Shawna! They will come fast!

    No, Plantar Fascitis is a muscular/tendon issue. It is often confused with a heel spur because they feel similar, but mine doesnt involve bone.
    I am alittle better. I was able to get a shoe on.

    Please do wear both to church---and up to vote for Blackbird---Member of the Year---now that Diane has been disqualified Blackbird believes he still stands a little more than a "Half Halelujah" chance of winnin'!! Pass the word--Blackbird!!!
     
  17. dianetavegia Guest

    Correction! Diane has NOT been disqualified... as Member of the Year 2003-2004, I am ineligible to run. Dr. Bob and Helen were the first two winners and also are not eligible to win. I can, however, make recommendations based on the 'contributions and incentives' .....
     
  18. TaterTot Guest

    Blackbird, you are shameless!!!!
     
  19. dianetavegia Guest

    We've been wondering about that old crow for quite a while. Am glad that so many are interested in the coveted Title and the unbelievable financial benefit that comes from it.
