Wait a minute! I've only read up to page 119 in this thread. Do I get a prize for post 7900? Did I steal it from MCWill??? LOL!

Oooooo, fresh meat! Oops, I mean, fresh faces!

Hellooooooo everybuggy! Ok, sooo sorry I've been Missing In Action (MIA) but too much stuff going on lately! I graduated Thursday (masters program) and Friday (the military program), so I'm official now. Ok, well, mostly official. Like I said before, I was accepted into another school (still here in *sigh, Kansas), and I'll ultimately end up with a second masters (not intentionally, but I have no choice!) so I'l be staying put for a bit. Hopefully, without having to go to night classes, I'll have a few more minutes to dedicate to the MINI! But alas, we'll have to see.

ANNNYYWAY, just thought I'd pop in and say HellooooooO!!!!

Hey there, UhOh! Congrats!

Glad to see that you're still alive and well. Looks like you're quite the scholar. I barely "got out" with my AAS and BS degrees...I don't anticipate ever having what it takes to get anything beyond that.

Well, it was all pretty much unintentional, mostly. I always intended to get at least a masters, but when opportunity strikes (and somebody else - like the Army!) pays for it...kinda hard to say no.

Yeah, I'd find it really hard to say no if someone else was paying for it too. With that said, if I ever returned to college - I think I'd go for an MBA.

LOL, RJ... I think, after the New Year, I'm swearing off food and wine. I can't fit into anything. Had to run up to the Tractor Supply store just to get some Burlap bags to wear!

TN - I'd like to swear off food, but I'm not sure I could handle the massive hypoglycemic headaches. That would kill me long before starvation ever did.

Hellloooooo!!! Nice to see everybody on here chatting away!! Since it is cold and wintery maybe we ( mainly me!) can find some time to mosey over here and get us up to 8000 posts!!
I had a great holiday,, sounds like you all did too.. one small bummer, though.
I laid my hand on a hot burner--- and yes it hurt like the dickens! Second degree burns over most of my palm. But it's healing nicely and I can return back to work today. I always wanted to take the week off between Christmas and New Years,,,lol
UhOh,, that is pretty awesome about your degrees,, I may have to curtsey when we meet up again seriously! Of, maybe you can show me how to salute??
Take care, Freebs! And please be nice to the "new meat"....lol
Welcome miniinminne!!

OMG, if we all have to courtesy or salute Uh Oh, we'll never live it down! <giggle>

Happy New Year Freebies!

Cabbie, so sorry to hear about your hand. OUCH! ouch! OUCH! Don't forget aloe to help reduce scar tissue...

NORM! yay, a new project

I went to a NY Day party and ran into some folks I had met a couple of years ago when I was trying to help all the folks who got hit by the tornado around here. They knew I had a Clubbie, and they were pleased to tell me they'd gotten a classic!

OK- off to the races... <sigh> when did reality decide to hit.

Thanks babe! *sigh, no applause (or curtsies) please...just throw money. Now for the NEXT iteration of schooling...I"m going to be SO SICK of homework before this time next year!!! Oh wait...I already am!

HAY HAY HAY, woman! It's never a bad time to curtsey! (Or courtesy, according to TNMM!)



Norm, are you gonna spill on the partner story AND provide pics of the latest project?? PLEASE? (mostly the pics, so it doesn't seem like we're prying...)
