I think I may steal this too... your lists are very fun (and full of creative activities!)
I was glad Michael made it also. Unfortunatly so did that jack--- Jeffery. I like Laura best. It isn't fun to be in your forties and trying to keep up with the youngins. In my job, even though I am on the downhill side of 50 (how on Earth did that happen?), I can work as hard or harder than the young college students. I pay a high price hough. I am totally exhausted after work, and can not manage to do anything else. I have been on vacation this week. but I only have $1.10 to my name so I didn't do a dang thing. I get paid tomarrow so maybe Icanget groceries. I get a raise on the first, but unfortunatly the price of food, utilities, gas, and Rx got even higher raises than I did. I think I am probably worst off.
If I had to list 10 things I did this week it would be so pathetic. When did it happen that the only things I do are at work where I have to. I should occasionally do something I want to. I must say, at least, not much was as icky as a story about E. coli. Although I stayed home today with much bathroom activity coping with something akin to E. coli and that was most assuredly icky. I cried when Tim said he had worried all day about telling one of the designers to pack up their things. Of course if he had said pack up to tat boy I wouldn't have cried. I'm way too emotionally involved with these people.
I love your lists and I love your door! I want to hear more about the thrift shop decorating. I watch HGTV and think "I could never find anything that cool!" I think that I need a vinyl door sign too. My walls are too textured. Dang, I just ordeed three more signs this week. Now, I'll have to call Amy again. Thanks for the suggestions! Have a great conference weekend!

You may not like Jeffery but he's a good designer. If I was skinnier I'd weat his stuff! That being said I like MIchael a lot but he should have stuck to sportswear, that's where he shines!
