Highs and Lows

My boyfriend is coming to visit me in 5 days and I am so excited as I have not seen him in almost 2 months and it is killing me.
Anyway my main point in coming on here was to say that AXPrincess, Mairin, just underwent major surgery and that you should all keep her in your prayers as I know I am.

I remember those days of waiting! It made the reunion that much better! Let us know how AXPrincess is doing if you can!

OK, this is a high and low all mixed into one. My daughter is PROBABLY going to spend a year in England. She has met a couple of women at work and they all hit it off. Ever sincew she was little, sh has claimed her dream was to live in England. LSU has an exchange program and as I stand and breathe...she's going. I will NOT persuade her to do otherwise. It looks like we will have to start pinching the pennies because Christmas 2004 will be in Liverpool. If anyone has followed, she wants to be in music promotions. The girl she is staying with has an uncle in the business. He manged the BEATLES before they added Ringo. Though he missed out on the act of the CENTURY, he is still quit successful and this could be her foot in the door. ANYway, please send a prayer of strength my way, because as she gets older, the odds of meeting the "right" guy increase. I would die (cry) if she met a Londoner, and stayed in Europe...
MY GRANDBABIES NEED ME!!!!

Oh man, it's been almost a year since I've posted on this thread last.

Highs: Got to see two of my closest friends tonight, got to see my nephew yesterday, my biological sister is pregnant again, my brother is engaged, and my cousin's wedding is a little over a month from today.

Lows: I don't have a (male) date to the wedding (he canceled two days ago) so I've asked my alpha chi sister and ex-roommate to go and she said yes (there's another high).

I miss my sisters, but I see them around campus sometimes. (I'm working at Marquette for the summer). It's always a little crazy to see them and it's like "ahhh... HEY!!!" and then you RUN across Wisconsin avenue to give them a hug or something...... pure craziness. And I'm getting overtired and very talkative.... so GOODNIGHT!

Lows: Mr. AXO MOM 3 moved his office/business back into our home, so it looks pretty chaotic in right now! There is junk everywhere!

Highs: We are off to the beach for a week - yippee! I won't have to look at the mess for a whole week! I am loving summertime!

Lows:
Well, my boyfriend and I are 'on a break' now. Which is a good thing since he's in Missouri [as Im sure you guys are sick of hearing of him anyway]. But it's good, we talked about it and thought it would be the best thing anyway. It's better for [at least] because instead of sitting and waiting and when I finally get a call/letter being like, ' OMG He finally called...it's been so long...' I can be like, 'hey... dave called/wrote today.. sweet'. That's kind of a low and a high. This happened July3rd, and he called on the 4th [he had a 24 hour break period and could use the phone] anyway, he called to make sure I was ok [which of course i was... i was at the beach] and he was saying how he couldn't get to sleep the night before because he was worrying about me.. etc etc. He's a doll. I just don't think we're right for each other right now... ya know? Oh well. We'll see when classes start again.

Highs:
I had a nice time back at home with my friends that I see once or twice a year. Had a few beer-BQs ... managed to get into a fist-fight with my friend Rob. [my hand hurts now]. I don't really know why, I think it started with me asking how to punch withOUT breaking my hand.. lol. Then we just started going punch for punch. I do have a few bruises though.. BUT I did clock him a few times in the face... GO ME!! It was fun.

Highs - My Cardinals won two out of three games this weekend. I got to see one of my fave cover bands - Mike and Joe twice. I met a cute boy who made me put his phone number into my phone after one of the aforementioned baseball games. I interview for grad school Friday.

Lows - I am getting burned out at work. My air conditioner is not cooling the air; my landlord just thinks that cleaning it out makes it better but it is still hot as heck. I did not call cute boy to go see band Sunday night, and am debating whether to call him. I am also broke.

[axotiger]

hey alphachiohmy ...
Good luck with cute boy!!!

Highs:
4th of July weekend was great. My boyfriend and I went to the mountains to visit his parents and had a really nice weekend. Got to do a little shopping, a little lounging by the pool, watched some fireworks, and ate a LOT of good food!
My parents are coming this weekend and we're going to the lake. I haven't seen them since Memorial Day weekend and I'm excited to get to hang out for a whole day!
My boyfriend and I had our one-year anniversary yesterday. Boy, that year has flown by! He sent me a HUGE vase of roses and daisies to work and I got all embarrassed having to walk back to my desk w/ all the guys in the hangar (I work at an aircraft maintenance facility) asking what I did to get flowers like that. Of course, I had a big, goofy grin on my face the whole time, so I'm sure that added to their laughs.

Lows:
Work sucks right now. I have one project to work on and it's SO boring. I'm taking a break from it right now so I don't fall asleep at my desk!
Two more months until another holiday.

Get back to work DaisyCrazy!!!

Okay...for now...

Highs - I am currently "previewing" a yummy ice cream sundae -- I'm having a PartyLite Ice Cream Sundae Party tomorrow night, and you know, better make sure that the Edy's ice cream, the chocolate syrup, and all the other fun stuff is just perfect for my company

Lows - I will be sporting this sundae on my REAR END for another six months! I don't know why I tempt myself with such goodies in the house!

HIGHS-SURE IS GREAT TO SEE SO MUCH ACTIVITY! Enjoying all the posts!
Work went pretty fast this week. I only go in M-W 6:30-10:00 or so. I am an early riser.
Son is actually doing his OWN LAUNDRY now...without TOO much griping.

LOWS-Time is evaporating and I feel like I'm going to get punched in the stomach. I DO NOT LIKE STRESS! Son does not realize how much there is to do.

axotiger ... Thanks much. So, I did call and talked to him for a few seconds. He asked what I was doing tonight. I said I had to pack to go out of town this weekend ... He said he wanted to get together sometime and asked that I call him when I get back ... so its to be continued.

JAM ... I am taking laundry home this weekend. I know how to do my own but its fun not to when I go to my parents home b/c my mom asks if I need it done. I almost think my mom likes it too, cause she knows she can be helpful if I am running around. But she is in Florida this weekend, and I don't trust my dad - so I will be doing it myself sans quarters that I normally dish out for laundry here in Chicago.

Highs ... see above!! World's Oldest St. Pat's Block Party is in 1.5 weeks. Choice is between Better than Ezra or The Bodeans. (Friday or Saturday). One of my friends from home is getting Sunday married and pregnant, so I am happy for her.

Lows ... am still broke, have to charge wedding gift. Have a five hour drive tomorrow after a long day of work. A long day of work.
I wont get to see my Mom, who is off in Clearwater with my Grandma and aunts.

alphachiohmy-and I don't trust my dad

LOL!!! GOOD CALL!!!!

Hey girls-
I really haven't posted much in "our" forum and it's something i'm trying to do more, soo......


High: My bf came to town for the 4th of July weekend!! He looked awesome and I was so happy to see him (it's been a month). We went to rooftop party at the Cubs game (free food, free alcohol, free tix to see the game, niiiiiiiice ) went to the Taste, just an all around amazing time. I love him so much. (and to think we almost broke up a month ago............)

Low: AXOtiger I totally feel you about the bf in Missouri---I go to school there but I live in Chicago and it is KILLING me having him so far away He just left 2 days ago and this time it just seems like I can't deal with it....

And, I need a couch for my apt in the fall and there just isn't one in the entire North Shore thats up to my standards, lol.
