Someday I will get that pic that I want, with me holding up a byke like Jessi Streisand with all those shoulder muscles and everything. I swear.

Me, too! (and I'll post it on TD, much better than my ab shots! )

OK, kids! Dinner is ready!

Chicken and rice soup, with satsumas and Endangered Species dark chocolate for dessert.

Hi, TE TD, long time!! I got lost......... lost in the real world. Had too many hours at work w/ holiday parties. Tried to find time at home, too. Had 29th wedding anniversary and overnight trip out of town. Had computer that drove me crazy till #3 son got it working again. Plus the holidays. Something had to give. Hope you are all well! No emergencies.
Sounds like there were some great vacations/visits going on! A new happy pairing/couple!!?? Cool!! Friendships cemented and maintained. It continuously amazes me, this online community that encourages and nurtures connections between people that would have probably had no chance of meeting otherwise. We live in a continuously expanding world, don't we......
Hey - Happy 2007 to everyone!!!! I'll check in again soon, I hope.

Shrink, shrink, shrink!

Poor SKnot is in that in-between stage: Boys size jeans are too small, mens size jeans are too big, and "student" size jeans aren't long enough.

So I got him a pair of men's shrink-to-fit Levi 501's in the smallest size I could find and I'm shrinking them with reckless abandon. (Darn men's jeans cost 2x what the boys jeans cost! Pooey!)

Are we allowed to dress our growing like a weed teenage boys in burlap bags?

Kids and clothes - I bought my long-legged but "skinny-butted" boy some jeans in Vancouver this week because that's the only place I can find jeans with an adjustable waist that don't look stupid.

That's what I've got: long legged skinny butted boy. And all the styles are for baggy pants, and even SLIM pants are baggy on him.

This kid needs a 26-27 inch waist and 30 inch inseam.

burlap bags, I'm tellin' ya.... just cut holes for the head and arms and send 'em off to school...

Knot,
That is what my son wears. For him Levi's 550 Student do the trick. We also found that Urban Pipeline (from Kohl's) also fit his lean and lanky teen body. My luck he just grew taller as I type this.

Hi ty, nice to see here you hon.

Congrats Knot on bringing up up a wonderfully tall, perpetually growing (in so many ways) young man.
Thanks for teaching him about diversity and tolerance. Kudos for passing on the good vibes.

Woah, I am VERY drunk right now. (only 2 glasses of wine. cheap date.) You have no idea of the day I have had. Not nearly as bad as some of my patients and I am very grateful for that. Thanks Kit for putting up with me on the phone. Much appreciated sis. And thank you so much for putting me in a good mood again. You always know how to make me feel better.

I guess in my drunken state, I should stop right here.

So, goodnight TD. Have a peaceful and safe night.

-X.
