Thanks for all the good wishes, guys. Mom continues to do well, but there's a lot she still can't do. She has an aide that helps her bathe, etc., and a visiting physical therapist. That takes a load off me. Amirab, Lacey is really adorable. Bet she's lots of fun. Sounds like your schedule is really busy. Good luck on your tests. And thanks for the update on Johnny's daughter. Next week SHOULD be better, I have still a lot to do. Brother's party was recent so I have to celebrate it tonite. I'm going bowling, so no complait. (i can't spell). The school play is this weekend. I'll post better pictures of Lacey and Gizmo later. |

Amirab, you'll appreciate this bowling story.
I took my grandkids to a birthday party at the bowling alley. The way they set it up, the hostess puts the kids names into the computer scoreboard as they arrive. Well, nobody seemed to pay attention to any kind of order and just kept rolling balls down the alley. My 2-1/2 year old granddaughter ended up with high score even though she had only bowled a couple of balls.
Everyone had lots of fun, including me, because I played about 30 games of skeeball (Shades of Dogma).
And the pizza was actually good.

I went bowling yesterday and threw the ball down the lane , but I did not get up of the approach,(the part were you walk up to the foul line and throw). I got a strike. Suprised me silly. |

I'm back. . . sorta. I've recently moved into a home I purchased and just now got the internet hooked up. The bad news is DSL or high speed won't work where I am at now. So its back to a dial up account. Still, it's better than nothing. The only problem is the computer is to slow to run the chat rooms. I miss speaking with all of you and don't worry. I'm still working on my stories and will post them as soon as I can. Have a great holiday weekend everyone.

We're having a great big family breakfast tomorrow after Church. What's everyone else doing?
We missed the Easter Egg Hunt at our local parks (with the Easter Bunny arriving by helicopter). The paper didn't specify the time so we got there just as everything was over. That's okay cuz' we have our own hunt at home.

[glow=red,2,300]Hey! Hello Everybody!!! Have a nice and happy Easter![/glow] We're having a great big family breakfast tomorrow after Church. What's everyone else doing?Yumy! Big family breakfast? , it sounds fabulous!  , have a nice family day desraelda!  In Spain: Easter = Semana Santa or Pascua ( Saint Week) In Semana Santa processions are done and statues and images of the saints are walked by the village people ( I don't know if in U.k or U.S.A you do the same) . The "Nazarenos" are the men dressed in long caps and hats entrusted to take these images, they go all covert because they have a debt with god. It's funny, because sometimes this kind of celebrations are considered by the turists like a sects, by the way of they dresses LoL. This funny thing remember me that when I saw the Globet of fire and I saw Lucius and co. I said to myself : "oh! :oLOL look at this!! we are in Easter again! XD OMG! Death Eaters have visited Spain! LOL " (  `! Perhaps Semana Santa was what inspired Rowling ... `) Well... If you look this images you will understand me    Teheh! ^^`...Sorry for the long speech, here my favourite part is when in our homes we make the traditional Easter Cake, called "Mona de Pascua", it consist in a traditional mother cake but with chocolate Egg or one little chocolate sculpture in the top of the cake.  |

I'm going to talk Spanlish. Yo soy en clase de espanol cuatro. (i have been in spanish for four years.) En mi clase de espanol, hablábamos (el profesor y los estudiantes) sobre (about) Semana Santa. When I was talking about my aunt/uncle/cousin house, I met that the house belongs to them. (casa de mi tío/tía/primas) And when I said I don't know then, I met I don't know what I was going to do afterwards goning to their house, when I get home. (yo no tengo idea que hacer después de volver de la casa de mi tío/tía/primas). Mi tío vivi cerca mi. (my cuncle lives near me). I hope I clear some of what I said. Please just time me if you still do not understand what I have said, or did say. |

Orion, thanks for the pictures and the explanation of your tradition.
My Grandmother used to make an Easter cake, but it was with ham and hard-boiled eggs. Sounds funny now that I write it out, but we used to love it.
Amirab, I'm very impressed with you responding to Orion in Spanish. It's a very useful language to learn.
