THE COMMON GROUND COFFEE HOUSE #26

[I Am Blessed 24]

Dr.B.

Chocolate covered pretzels are NOT on our respective diets! Neither one of us gets to taste them.

I am STRONG. I have made 'haystacks' and 'turtles' and have not eaten ONE! My resolve may weaken when I bake my 'famous' sugar cookies though.

(Hubby has a sweet tooth and has to sample at least six before he gives his verdict)

 

[dianetavegia]

Oh wow... Chocolate covered pretzels sound good! YUM

Not one flake in our town but a few flurries above Atlanta. Oh well.

Diane

 

[I Am Blessed 24]

This is the best I can do Diane.

It's still snowing here...come on up and we'll have a snowball fight!

 

[dianetavegia]

Thanks Sue!

Oh poor Jim is getting discouraged. I can tell. He's working 8 - 9 hours at his part time job and we're sending out so many resumes. He had a second interview but the guy told him that the head hunter was wanting an enourmous amount of money if he hired Jim as a finders fee. Jim hadn't signed with anyone and had just replied to a generic ad but I guess this other guy would have to pay....... so he begged off.

[Dr. Bob]

My two week term in purgatory (or South Beach diet) is up on Saturday. BUT I may quit a day early if the grandbaby comes Friday and we have to scoot up to Buffalo.

Hard to follow ANY type of diet when the best place in town is Jared's hangout and no time to do any real cooking (with the hectic day).

HEY, maybe I'll eat hospital food. That'll make me hurl and I won't get fat if I can't get food.

 

[I Am Blessed 24]

HEY, maybe I'll eat hospital food.

You haven't been THAT bad this year have you?

 

[dianetavegia]

Dr. Bob, are they going to induce her?

Diane

 

[Dr. Bob]

Think they've already met.

Since she is so overdue, they are talking about putting her in the hospital late tonight and do some "pill" that simply starts labor - she's had to have this with both previous.

NOT the Pitocin stuff which is really really really bad for you. But if the baby has not started labor by tomorrow a.m., that will probably be the next step.

Hey, I don't want to KNOW these things! I'm going along to drive the wife and to play with the grandkids while everyone ELSE is in the hospital.

 

[dianetavegia]

I sure hope that works. Our daughter has been induced with all three babies but Erin is VERY tiny and married a man from a very large family. Her babies haven't been large for the average person but large for HER.

Will add this to tonights prayer needs. Would you pray for hubby and his job search? We're close to desparate now and he's getting very down about it.

Diane

 

[Abiyah]

I finally get on, after not being on for forever, and you are talking about food! Well, food, diets, and babies! All I have eaten today is about 8 green olives! I suppose I should go cook dinner, but I Got Internet Service! Yeay! I am online on a real computer!!!

 

[Dr. Bob]

Will do, Diane. He is a part of our cyber-family that is hurting.

Men get much of their self-image from their work. Women get more from their family, house, activities, etc. Psychology 101.

Know what it's like to be unable to provide like you would want and heaven seems to be brass.

My prayers go up as I type!

 

[Dr. Bob]

And Abiyah, WELCOME BACK! Glad you popped up!

 

[Abiyah]

Thank you, Dr. Bob! That is cute!

 

[I Am Blessed 24]

Hi Abiyah! I'm glad you're back. You have been missed! Happy you have Internet service again. Did you get a new computer?

[dianetavegia]

Thank you Dr. Bob.... I know exactly what you mean by heaven seeming as brass. I feel as tho the prayers for others get through and I see wonderful answers but when it comes to this need... going on two years now.... it seems to bounce right back to my lap.

Welcome home Abiyah! You have been missed. I was hoping you didn't have this flu!

Diane

 

[I Am Blessed 24]

Good night folks. It's been a long day. I will be up bright and early in the morning!

I hope everyone gets a restful, pleasant night's sleep!

No! Same old computer, but our Internet service to the TV was cut off when the company folded. I had to finally hook my own computer up today. Actually, I did not do it -- one of my pastors came over and hooked it up for me, because the modem was not working.

Thank you for missing me! :-D It is good to be back!

Hey! Good to be back! Get any packages lately? I am getting worried! I just ate my last candy bar. They were delicious! I really pigged out on them.
