Today was a much better day. No crying! Tearing up yes but no crying! This may sound odd but I can not for the life of me stand crying. I get flustered and mad wich causes me to cry more...Horribly vicious circle.

They made more changes to her funeral plans. Everything will be down at home except a rosary. The entire mass is cousin ran for the most part. One of my cousins wife will sing, two cosins will play instruments, two will be alter boys. one and myself will be readers, and the great grand baby's will bring the offerings up....There's 9 kids, 22 grandkids, and great grandkids...and than a whole gaggle of nonimidiate family members, and friends. :rolleyes: it will crazy

My dad too my sister and I to warm bodies before they headed home. I've read the book and both the book and the movie were pretty funny. Then my father, the little :somad...I called tonight to check on Ruby. We had worried the new bull would hurt her since they weren't getting along when we left. He said she wasn't ok and that the butcher would be out in the morning. He said she had been gored.

She hadn't been but he likes pulling those sorts of phsyc outs.

When I got back to the dorm tonight some of my suite mates had gotten me a card, some flowers, and a cupcake. :hugs Theyve been so supportive.

Did I mention I "inherited" on of my grandmas potted plants? My mom didn't want to haul it p to their hotel room so I said I would take it. They were happy I would take it. Then they started to worry it would croak in my dorm room. A) I am a botany emphasis bio major and B) it's pothos.....it takes a lot to kill pothos.

Glad you had a better day today. :hugs

I bet I could kill the potted plant. No potted plant survives in my house! I've killed an aloe plant, and the chia pets we have aren't doing anything! Potted plants die at my house! :/

May have to try those plants next time I want to try my hand at potted plants! I think our not having a lot of good light areas messes up the potted plants here. Maybe I should wait till we get a different house to try my hand at potted plants again. I have to worry with the kids too. Knocking over plants, digging in dirt, all the fun kid stuff! :lol:

Botany emphasis Bio major....that's SO awesome! I have a Bio degree...I LOVED botany too. That would've been so cool! (Check for double majors...my degree was ONE class short of a double chemestry major!)

That was MEAN about Ruby! I would've had some kind of meltdown (again). The crying cycle keeps on until you're worn out...then you sleep REALLY well! (Of course your eyes are all puffy and squinty when you wake up...nothing a few cucumber slices can't help with!) :plbb
I'm glad your suitemates are being so supportive...I'm sure that helps a lot.

I have a cutting from my great, great grandmother's hoya plant. It's doing really well and it blooms all the time! I brought that home about 11 or 12 years ago actually - the original is HUGE and woven throughout the 'foyer' of the family farmhouse! I can be harsh on potted plants...unless I can ignore them!

Here's to a BETTER day!

Chemistry :th .....Good for you Coco! I am terrified of chem. I have never been good at it.

I actuall am a double emphasis major with botany and zoology. I have been told that I'll only have to take one or two more class for both.

:lol:


So, funny story. Today I went to a career fair and I was talking to some people from a fish processing plant in alaska. They asked where I was for and I just said blah blah, it's a small town south of here. The gentleman asked if I knew so and so....Well, yeah! He's was my Ag teache.


That's right I ran into the only person from Alaska who knew my teacher. :gig .
