Dear Self,
Sometimes you get in too big of a hurry. Please check the cookie recipe carefully and note that it has already been doubled before deciding in a haste to double the recipe. 18 cups of oatmeal makes for a huge batch of cookies and a LONG HOT day in the kitchen.
You can send some to me if there are too many. ;) Just trying to help. :rolleyes:Quote:

I hear Zen's got a cookie truck ready to go. ;)
Dear TE'rs,
Sorry about all the emoticons. I just can't help myself. In person, if you tied my hands behind my back, I couldn't talk at all. Here, I do what I can. :p
I ended up with 15 1/2 DOZEN - come and get em' and bring on the cookie truck.
Veronica, A side note, I wanted my name to be Veronica when I was little. It changed to Eileen when Dixie's Midnight Runners came out with "Come on Eileen." Back on topic, I have froze this dough before and it works splendidly - I just decided not to this time.
Wanna send some over? ;) :DQuote:

Dear beloved puppydog,
I'm too tired to take you for another walk tonight. Please feel free to avail yourself of the back yard. That's why we have it. Really, it's not part of the house and we won't be mad if you relieve yourself there. Really, truly.
Dear Idiot driver of SUV with Indiana plates,
You did not need to stop in the middle of the road to let the bus in. The bus had the yield sign, you had the right of way. By your stopping, and impeeding traffic, you caused a chain reaction fender-bender accident. Unfortunately, the blue Jaguar behind you was stopped just far enough that when all this happened, you were able to drive away totally unscathed, and unaware of the problems you caused. Green turn arrow you drove through meant you had the right-of-way, the bus gets to wait until the light in our direction was red.
Now I get to add going to a body shop to get my bumpers and tail-light repaired to my list of things to do before I move. :mad:
Yeah, I hit the Jag, driven by a lawyer no less. But I was the car in the middle. No ticket for me, cause I stopped before hitting the Jag, then was forced into it by red Ford. sigh
{{{{Beth}}}} - sorry to read about this. It sounds like you are fine?
Sorry about the accident, Beth. I'm glad you're okay. It is a hassle handling the repairs, though. Wishing you a smooth move.
Mad :mad: yes, but not hurt. Or more specifically, I was hurting from my *fun* PT session that I just left - we added more to the routine, than from the accident. My car is pouting, but it did kiss a Jag :cool::pQuote:

The only time I was rear-ended, I felt fine immediately afterward, but woke up the next day with pretty bad lower back pain that lasted three or four days (and low back pain is VERY unusual for me). Wouldn't hurt to give your PT a call and see if they want you to come back in, or adjust your home exercises for the time being. :(
Anyway, sure glad it wasn't worse and hope you can get your car fixed soon. Sounds like it's driveable at least, anyway?
"Mad yes, but not hurt. Or more specifically, I was hurting from my *fun* PT session that I just left - we added more to the routine, than from the accident. My car is pouting, but it did kiss a Jag "
hehehe, since you're headed this way, I will be glad to share my PT with you...I fondly named her "General" Julie :eek: not only because it's alliterative, but for her, uh, assertive manner :D I had been to lots of PTs in/around Seattle before I met her; the BEST.period.end of story. Also, she's not only a RAAM veteran but has had knee issues, surgery, so she had instant credibility with me! She's been a huge help to me, per injuries, coaching to my riding goals and overall improvement since 1999.
Am sorry to hear of the idiot driver causing all of this for you - when you least need it - whew! I hope that you're physically ok and can deal with it and move on...

Your dog and my dog must have gone to the same Finishing School for Polite Dogs. It's annoying sometimes!Quote:
