HELLO GRANDPA
Well, my husband is an official grandpa! My daughters are Aunts and now I can go from being the wicked step-bitch…oops mom…to being step-grandmom. How fast nine months go when it’s not you carrying the baby. She had a boy as expected. Everything went well and mom and baby are healthy and fine. He weighed in at 6lbs. 10 oz. and is 18 and3/4″ long. So he’s itty bitty. Congratulations Grandpa
And congratulations to mom, dad and son!
The dragon is me! If you don’t know what I’m talking about then you haven’t commented lately. I’m still smoke free, yay me! Still haven’t eaten the wallpaper, and I haven’t traumatized my kid in days. Sorry Al. I still love my ol’ man, who is also still smoke free! Are we crazy or brave? Quitting at the same time? We could have perfect reasons for committing homicide. Just kidding, I swear!!! I have noticed some very odd things. I thought everything would taste SSOOO much better…instead everything leaves the most vile taste in my mouth. I can’t stand coffee, gum, pepsi, certain foods. AND THE SMELLS!!! oh my god!!! I sure did not expect everything to smell so bad, and so strong! What is up with that? I would love some former smoker to tell me that this will all pass. That I will eat normally and smell things normally again, soon! (my quit date Jan. 2nd 2003)
You know what is really nice? The Aimee Mann cd that I am listening to as I type away. Timah, thank you again! It is the most enjoyed present I’ve gotten in a long time. Maybe it’s music to soothe the savage beast.
I need a really good code person to come to the house and walk me step by step through some of these computer things. Are there any volunteers? I don’t want you to do it for me…I want to be taught how to do it myself. It would more than likely be a walk in the park for most of you.
Will post more later! Indie

What the hell…where’s my dragon?
i soooo want some kids! now!
When jon and Brandy and Jeremey come home with me on the 24th i’m sure they wouldn’t mind helping.
ooooh, I got that CD too! It was recommended by Monsur, as I recall.
Glad you guys quit smoking the death-sticks.
First, I guess the olfactory senses’ sensitivity return then the taste buds… whatever’s going on– you’ll be glad… so glad a year from now that you decided to quit.
Congrats to the old man for becoming GRAMPS!
Firstly, congratulations on the new arrival!! My best friend is due to have her first baby any day now ~ must be the time of year, or something
Secondly ~ more congratulations on the smoke free bit!!! That’s wonderful news, I hope you can keep it up
I read somewhere (I have no first hand knowledge, since I’ve never smoked) that it helps to look at it not as “giving something up” because that implies a loss of something, but as “getting back” all the things that Myki listed!! Best of luck with it
