Hello, all. Tis late (for me), so this is quick.
Dotster --glad you’re getting help, and btw, they’re not scare tactics. When I was a student nurse, we had an anorexic on the psych ward (this was in the 80’s when little was known about anorexia nervosa).
She had fallen and shattered (shattered) her shoulder blade-her left shoulder blade. She was in a special cast that covered her left chest and shoulder and held her arm in position. Here’s the thing: the unit had to borrow an orthopedic saw and keep it on the ward, in case she coded. (ie, heart stopped). Her electrolytes were all messed up (common for anorexics, and deadly).
So, I know you’re in HS and all, but Bad Things can indeed happen to you.
Thus endeth the lecture.
My kitchen has no cabinets or countertops in it–it’s an echoing room of dust right now. Really hope the floor guy calls tomorrow…
Cubbies won one! Yahoo! Off to bed now. Brain not working well.

woo! yay! I got to work and another girl was there. She was all, “um… are you working?” and i was all, “I thought so, are you? I can totally leave if you are.” so she was like, “I thought so, but I can leave if you want to work. do you?” and I was like, “um, not particularly. no.” so we called the Chief to see who was actually SUPPOSED to be there.
it was her! I get my day off!

Wanna know how I do it? I write it up Sunday - then all you have to do on Monday is post. Easy peasy! 'Course you still gotta be up early to do it.

That’s what I’m doin’!!! Thanks, good to know I’m thinking like the big kids.
Hi Dot; glad you stopped by. I know what you mean about being intimidated. Took me a long time to screw up my courage to post here in the first place. Hope you’re not intimidated because we don’t hold back on telling you what’s what. I know it’s hard to hear sometimes. Just remember that we’re all rooting for you cuz we’ve become kinda attached. It’s really neat to read about all the good things happening in your life and it gets scary when you start talking about your health. I hope the residential treatment is what’s right for you. Keep us updated. You’re in my thoughts and prayers too…
Don’t think I ever congratulated the graduate:
Congrats Spats!!!

See, toldja he was nice. Nice people say nice stuff about other people. 
I made it through about half of the remaining bed expansion. Planted a bunch of stuff while I was doing that. I think I’m getting the hang of how to do the newspaper/weed block/plant/mulch thing. Weather’s supposed to be nice this week, so maybe I’ll get to finish. Never made it to my annuals; maybe tomorrow…
