does your chewing gum lose it's flavor on the bedpost over night?

I am getting used to using backgrounds and feel funny not using one.

Today is a beautiful autumn day.  The weather is really nice.  The trees are getting decked out in color (or running around naked).

For the first time (since I have gotten Maggie and Sophie that is) I opened my back door to let the kitties out.  Don't panic, it is a screened in porch.  It is a really small porch (big enough to set a kitchen chair on but you would have to move the chair in and out every time you shut/opened the storm door).  My other cats used to love it out there.  It used to have some of that green icky outdoor carpeting junk on it (there when I bought the house), I ripped it up last year sometime but wanted to get the porch scrapped down and repainted before I let the kids out.  I didn't know how old the old paint was and I was afraid it could have lead in it and didn't want to take any chances.

Maggie slowly made it to the door then turned and ran back into the kitchen.  She finally made it out and onto the porch.  Took Sophie even longer, she wasn't so sure that this could be a good thing!  LOL

After they were out there for a little while I came back in the house.  A few minutes later I went back to check on them.  Sophie came slinking back into the house.  She acted like I had caught her doing something bad.  LOL

I know they will enjoy the fresh air and all the outdoor smells.

I guess you probably already know that John (of John & Krissy) had to be taken back to the hospital.  He is pretty sick.  You can read more about it here: John And Krissy.

Oh, and there is a teacher out there that wants our help with a school project.  This is something I know everyone in J-land can do!!!!!  Cost you less than a dollar!  Go read about it, go to your journal and let all your readers about it.  Lets flood this class with postcards!  And if any of you guys "across the pond" can send one that would be great too!

 I need a favor from some of the wonderful J-Land Community......

 Teachers are hero's in their own ways so lets all work together to make her students think she's the greatest thing since sliced bread.  LOL

I love candy corn and when I saw this graphic I had to grab it.  Makes my little life sound kind of pathetic doesn't it?  That a little weird graphic of a piece of candy corn can make me happy.  So what if I'm a toddler in an old woman's body?

Thanks for all your concerns about me feeling lousy yesterday.  I still feel bad but not as bad as when I wrote that.  I'll live I am sure.  I told Tammy that I hate being sick because when I get sick I think I'm dying.  I can handle pain much better.  With pain I may want to die, but don't feel like I am actually dying.  I'm a big baby, I know it you don't have to tell me.

Hope you can read this font ok.  Since I didn't use a background I thought I would play around with fonts!
