dixie, i'm sorry that they're taking advantage of your kindness. gas is so expensive now. i just don't see how people can live with themselves acting that way, but so many do, so i agree that you need to put a stop to that. i'm a giver, too, and find it hard to put my foot down, but i'm still learning myself. good luck. i'm very glad that your brother's surgery went well. wishing him a fast recovery.

i don't know what i'm going to do myself today. the storms were pretty bad yesterday, so i had to get my plants off their stands and realized two are cracked so they aren't holding water, so maybe i'll play with them today.

best to all today!

hi hens

Ive been to work today, i did the reductions today for the first time, you know when you see a product marked down in price because it has today's date and needs to be sold. I thought i might have problems with it as i have a bit of an OCD checking thing, but it seemed to go ok, or at least i think it did!

Dix, Put your foot down and say no! Otherwise it will only get worse. The more you give, the more you will get taken for a ride, literally!

seren, Have you got a favorite evanescence song? I love swimming home and lost in paradise, i love them all but those are fave : )

hugs

empathy, i have albums on my ipod, so it's hard to decide, but two faves are bring me back to life and call me when you're sober. i really like the videos to those as well.

i hope that work went well. you're a trooper!
